# ui-auto-release(1)

a tool from the ui-auto tool box.

## NAME

ui-auto-release - a tool from the ui-auto tool box.

## DESCRIPTION

Documentation is fully in the usage output via "ui-auto-release -H". This is just a copy for convenience: Release an 'ui-auto-enabled' project.

 Notes: Unless in manual checkout mode (-C), always run from\
  the package's top-level source tree. Unless in automatic mode\
  (-A), ui-auto-release prints status information and prompts you\
  before doing anything. All modes may be combined\
  arbitrarily. See '-P' for configuration documentation.

Usage: ui-auto-release \[-h\|-H\] -c -C arg -s -S arg -d -D arg -Q arg -A -T arg -f arg -F arg -n -R -K -p -P -I

 \-h\|-H : Get usage help; short (-h) or complete (-H).

Options:\
  \-c    : Checkout mode: Work in a temporary fresh VC checkout (not wd).\
  \-C arg: Checkout mode with explicit VC information; syntax 'VCS/VCPATH'. (implies c) {expert}\
            \- Please see 'ui-auto-uvc --help' an explanation on available VCSes and VCPATH syntax.\
            \- Use 'local/'pwd'' (pwd in backticks) explicitly to just get a copy of your current project wd to work in.\
  \-s    : Snapshot mode: Do a snapshot release.\
            \- Auto-generates snapshot versions.\
            \- Omit vc checkins.\
            \- Omit sequents: -vccheck -tags -notify.\
  \-S arg: Snapshot mode with manual version appendix. \['snapshot20240429102712'\] (implies s) {expert}\
            \- Example: '~rc1' when your version is already bumped to the upcoming stable.\
