# How to release new versions of the Ruma crates
## General
* When releasing a pre-release version, make sure other crates are updated to
depend on it, with an exact version requirement (`=x.y.z-tag`)
* When releasing a regular version, make sure other crates are updated to depend
on it, with a regular (same as caret / `^`) version requirement (`x.y.z`)
* Macro crates are versioned identically to their "parent" crate and are exempt
from the rule above: Dependencies from the parent crate to the macro crate
(for re-exporting) should always use exact version requirements. Whenever a
crate with an associated macro crate should get a new release, release a new
version of the macro crate with the same number first, even if there were no
changes in the macro code.
## Dependencies
Dependencies obviously need to be released before dependents. Also, a breaking
change release in a dependency should usually be followed by a new release of
all dependents.
