 # Cutting a release
 
+## Tags
+
+First, see what has been tagged:
+
 ```
 $ git tag
-v2.0.0
-v2.0.1
-v2.0.2
-v2.0.3
-v2.0.4
+v3.2.0
+v3.2.1
+v3.2.2
+v3.3.0
+v3.3.1
+```
+
+Pick the next release number and tag it.
+
+```
+$ git tag -am v3.3.2 v3.3.2
+```
+
+## Build and push to staging
+
+To build git-sync you need [docker buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx)
+and to cut a release you need
+[manifest-tool](https://github.com/estesp/manifest-tool).  At the time of this
+writing, manifest-tool is broken at head and doesn't support go modules yet:
+
+```
+$ GO111MODULE=off go get github.com/estesp/manifest-tool/cmd/manifest-tool
+
+$ cd "$(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/estesp/manifest-tool"
+
+$ git checkout v1.0.3
+Note: switching to 'v1.0.3'.
+
+You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
+changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
+state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.
+
+If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
+do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:
 
-# Pick the next release number
+  git switch -c <new-branch-name>
 
-$ git tag -am "v2.0.5" v2.0.5
+Or undo this operation with:
 
+  git switch -
+
+Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false
+
+HEAD is now at 505479b Merge pull request #101 from estesp/prep-1.0.3
+
+$ GO111MODULE=off go install .
+```
+
+The following step will build for all platforms and push the container images
+to our staging repo (gcr.io/k8s-staging-git-sync).
+
+```
 $ make manifest-list

+Take note of this final sha256.
+
+## Promote the images
+
+Make a PR against
+https://github.com/kubernetes/k8s.io/blob/main/k8s.gcr.io/images/k8s-staging-git-sync/images.yaml
+and add the sha256 and tag name from above.  For example:
+
+```
+ - name: git-sync
+   dmap:
++    "sha256:853ae812df916e59a7b27516f791ea952d503ad26bc8660deced8cd528f128ae": ["v3.3.2"]
+     "sha256:95bfb980d3b640f6015f0d1ec25c8c0161d0babcf83d31d4c0453dd2b59923db": ["v3.3.1"]

+```
+
+When that PR is merged, the promoter bot will copy the images from staging to
+the final prod location (e.g. k8s.gcr.io/git-sync/git-sync:v3.3.2).
+
+## Make a GitHub release
+
 Lastly, make a release through the [github UI](https://github.com/kubernetes/git-sync/releases).
+Include all the notable changes since the last release and the final container
+image location.
