  • Create a branch against release for a pull request
  • Update the version in package.json

  • Update CHANGELOG.md
    • Update version and date for the release section
    • Run news and copy-and-paste new entries (typically python news --final | code-insiders -; quite possibly nothing new to add)
  • Update ThirdPartyNotices-Distribution.txt by running tpn (typically python tpn --npm package-lock.json --npm-overrides package.datascience-ui.dependencies.json --config tpn/distribution.toml ThirdPartyNotices-Distribution.txt; quite possible there will be no change)
  • Update ThirdPartyNotices-Repository.txt manually if necessary
  • Create pull request against release (Updates for the 2019.6.0 release. #6327)
  • Merge pull request into release
  • Make sure component governance is happy (ignoring: 2 packages with alerts, 3 with failures)
