+# Release process
+
+You need to perform the following steps to release a new version of the extension (examples use `3.0.0` version):
+
+1. Do "sanity check" testing of the extension in your local development. At this stage, you are only making sure that there is no complete failure of the extension.
+1. Perform the following two changes:
+   1. Make sure that the `CHANGELOG.md` contains full information for the release (version, date, changes)([example](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-vscode-extension/-/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v300-2020-06-25)) and commit `git commit -m "Prepare changelog for 3.0.0"`
+   1. Update the package version in `npm version 3.0.0`
+1. `git push origin master` and `git push --tags`
+1. Trigger the "publish" step on the tag pipeline.
+1. When the extension updates in your VS Code, do another sanity check.
