# Super-Linter releases
The Process to create a super-linter release is as follows:
1. Merge the release pull request.
## Preview the release pull request
In order to have a preview of the next release before merging a pull request
that updates the configuration of the tooling that we use to create releases, do
the following:
1. Run:
2024-08-15 04:21:26 -04:00
```shell
make release-please-dry-run
```
This command also runs as part of the [CI process](../.github/workflows/ci.yml).
## Release workflows
Every push to the default branch triggers GitHub Actions workflows that:
- Build and deploy of super-linter container images:
- `super-linter/super-linter:latest`
- `super-linter/super-linter:slim-latest`
- Update the next release pull request.
## Release automation tooling
In order to automate releases, we use
[release-please](https://github.com/googleapis/release-please).
We configure release-please using two files:
- [release-please configuration file](../.github/release-please/release-please-config.json):
contains release-please configuration.
- [release-please manifest file](../.github/release-please/.release-please-manifest.json):
contains information about the current release.
