1. Check for the most latest develop SHA that is passing all the tests and also contains all the features / bug fixes that need to go into the release at https://concourse.apachegeode-ci.info/beta/teams/main/pipelines/develop/jobs/UpdatePassingRef.
2. Ensure in JIRA, that all tickers tickets with {version} as the fix version are either closed or resolved. If not inform the the assignees to either resolve/close it or if not fixed then increment the fix version in the ticket

3. Create the release branch.

   Code Block
   title Create release branch
   git checkout -b release/{version}

   
   

4. gradle.properties

   1. 1. remove -SNAPSHOT in releaseType 
5. docker/Dockerfile
   1. 1. Update GEODE_GPG with your GPG fingerprint.
      2. Update GEODE_VERSION with the release version (eg. 1.8.0)

6. Update the version number in all the expected pom files. Doing it manually takes a lot of time. If you choose to do it I have listed the files below. Otherwise please use the script below to do it.

   Info
   title Updating the expected-pom files
   - build geode after the version is updated in gradle.properties. NOTE: The build will fail but will have the correct expected-pom.xml files Code Block language bash title gradle build ./gradlew clean build -Dskip.tests=true - create a script in geode folder and assign executable permission.
