## Development
155+
156+
To run tests (note that [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/brbsix/debtool) runs tests upon push):
157+
158+
`make test`
159+
160+
To create a new release:
161+
162+
1. Bump VERSION in `debtool`
163+
2. Edit the download instructions in README.md to reflect the new version
164+
3. Build the *.deb* with `make deb` and update the changelog when prompted
165+
4. Commit the changes (excluding the *.deb* package)
166+
5. Tag the release (e.g. `git tag v0.0.1`)
167+
6. Push the release (e.g. `git push origin v0.0.1` or `git push origin --tags`)
168+
7. Attach the *.deb* package to the release via GitHub's web interface (this keeps builds out of the repo history)
