+To release a new version of ocis-thumbnails, you have to follow a few simple steps.
+
+## Preperation
+
+1. Create a new branch e.g. `prepare-release-x.x.x` where `x.x.x` is the version you want to release.
+2. Checkout the preparation branch.
+3. Create a new changelog folder and move the unreleased snippets there.
+{{< highlight txt >}}
+mkdir changelog/x.x.x_yyyy-MM-dd/ # yyyy-MM-dd is the current date
+mv changelog/unreleased/* changelog/x.x.x_yyyy-MM-dd/
+{{< / highlight >}}
+4. Commit and push the changes
+{{< highlight txt >}}
+git add --all
+git commit -m "prepare release x.x.x"
+git push
+{{< / highlight >}}
+5. Create a pull request to the master branch.
+
+## Release
+1. After the preparation branch has been merged update your local master.
+{{< highlight txt >}}
+git checkout master
+git pull
+{{< / highlight >}}
+2. Create a new tag (preferably signed).
+{{< highlight txt >}}
+git tag -s vx.x.x -m "release vx.x.x"
+git push --tags
+{{< / highlight >}}
+
+
+Congratulations, you just released ocis-thumbnails!
