## Release WebGoat
### Version numbers
For WebGoat we use milestone releases first before we release the official version, we use `v8.0.0.M3` while tagging
and 8.0.0.M3 in the `pom.xml`. When we create the final release we remove the milestone release and use
`v8.0.0` in the `pom.xml`
### Release notes:
Update the release notes with the correct version. Use `git shortlog -s -n --since "SEP 31 2019"` for the list of
committers.
At the moment we use Gitflow, for a release you create a new release branch and take the following steps:
```
git checkout develop
git flow release start <version>
git flow release publish
<<Make changes if necessary>>
<<Update RELEASE_NOTES.md>>
git flow release finish <version>
git push origin develop
git push origin main
git push --tags
```
Now Travis takes over and will create the release in Github and on Docker Hub.
NOTE: the `mvn versions:set` command above is just there to make sure the master branch contains the latest version
