Release process

1. Create RC branch

git checkout main
git pull origin main
git checkout -b rc-minor-fleetd-android-v1.X.X

2. Update version numbers

In app/build.gradle.kts, update:

defaultConfig {
    versionCode = 2          // Increment by 1 each release
    versionName = "1.1.0"    // Semantic version for display
}

versionCode: Integer that must increase with each release (Google Play requirement)
versionName: Human-readable version string shown to users

3. Update CHANGELOG.md

Add an entry for the new version with changes since the last release.

4. Commit and push RC branch

git add app/build.gradle.kts CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m "Prepare release v1.1.0"
git push origin rc-minor-fleetd-android-v1.X.X

5. Test the RC

Build and test the release candidate
Fix any issues on the RC branch (cherry-pick fixes from main if applicable)

6. Build signed release

Ensure keystore.properties is configured with the release signing key.

./gradlew clean bundleRelease

Output: app/build/outputs/bundle/release/app-release.aab

7. Upload to Google Play

Go to Google Play Console
Select the Fleet app
Navigate to Release > Production (or appropriate track)
Upload the signed AAB
Add release notes
Review and roll out

8. Tag the release

After the release is uploaded, tag the RC branch:

git checkout rc-minor-android-v1.X.X
git tag fleetd-android-v1.X.X
git push origin rc-minor-fleetd-android-v1.X.X

9. Bring version bump and CHANGELOG to main

git checkout main
git checkout rc-minor-fleetd-android-v1.X.X -- app/build.gradle.kts CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m "Update version and CHANGELOG for fleetd-android-v1.X.X"
git push origin main

This brings only the version bump and CHANGELOG updates to main, not other RC changes.
