1. Create branch release-X from master.
2. Ensure that release versions of all packages required are available under the ``main`` label in conda. Ensure that new packages in ``main`` do not break older ARTIQ releases.
3. Remove any unfinished features.
4. Test and fix any problems found.
5. If you have willing testers for release candidates, tag X.0rc0, have it build, and point testers there. Iterate over the previous points with new release candidates if necessary.
6. Tag X.0, have it build, and copy its packages to ``main`` channel.

Minor (bugfix) releases
-----------------------
1. Backport bugfixes from the master branch or fix bugs specific to old releases into the currently maintained release-X branch(es).
2. When significant bugs have been fixed, tag X.Y+1.
3. To help dealing with regressions, no new features or refactorings should be implemented in release-X branches. Those happen in the master branch, and then a new release-X+1 branch is created.
