When preparing to release a package to CRAN there are quite a few steps that
need to be performed, and some of the steps can take multiple hours. This
function creates a checklist in a GitHub issue to:
Help you keep track of where you are in the process
Feel a sense of satisfaction as you progress towards final submission
Help watchers of your package stay informed.
The checklist contains a generic set of steps that we've found to be helpful,
based on the type of release ("patch", "minor", or "major"). You're
encouraged to edit the issue to customize this list to meet your needs.
If you want to consistently add extra bullets for every release, you can
include your own custom bullets by providing a (unexported) a
release_bullets()
function that returns a character vector.
(For historical reasons, release_questions()
is also supported).
