Releasing
=========

1. Run `VERSION=X.Y.Z make release` (where X.Y.Z is the new version).
Packagist learns about a new version from the tag and fetches the code from GitHub.
Nothing is uploaded, so there is no publish workflow and no credentials.

That's it! Composer will pick up the new tag and you can see the latest version at https://packagist.org/packages/segmentio/analytics-php.
1. Update `$SEGMENT_VERSION` in `lib/Version.php`.
2. In `HISTORY.md`, change the `Unreleased` heading to `X.Y.Z / YYYY-MM-DD`.
3. Open a PR and merge it to `master`.
4. Tag the merged commit — no `v` prefix:

```
git tag X.Y.Z && git push origin X.Y.Z
```

5. Confirm at https://packagist.org/packages/segmentio/analytics-php
