Release Checklist

• Run yarn audit for security vulnerabilities.
  • Fix vulnerabilities.
• Run yarn outdated to find outdated package version, review what needs to be updated.
  • yarn upgrade-interactive and yarn upgrade-interactive --latest is helpful here.
• Run cat test/testdata/schema/*/vscode-extension-schema.golden.json | jq --sort-keys -s add in the haskell-language-server repo and add new configuration items.
• SemVer Compatible Version Bump in package.json
  • For pre-releases, we follow the version convention at: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/publishing-extension#prerelease-extensions. We use major.EVEN_NUMBER.patch for release versions and major.ODD_NUMBER.patch for pre-release versions. For example: 2.0.* for release and 2.1.* for pre-release.
• Update ChangeLog.md. The output of ./GenChangelogs.hs usually suffices.
• Update the README.md to have no outdated information.
• Make sure CI is succeeding.
• Perform the release by creating a release in Github
  • Github actions will automatically release the extension to VSCode- and VSX-Marketplace.
  • If you want to create a pre-release, create a pre-release in Github. The github action will perform the appropriate actions automatically and publish the pre-release of the extension to VSCode- and VSX-Marketplace.

Notable changes

• Enables the hls-cabal-plugin for all users.
• Adds cabalFormattingProvider option.

I will likely wait a little bit to merge this until the HLS release 2.9.0.0 is finished.

Is there any blocker on this release?

[fendor]

No, I just didn't get to it since the ghcup release of HLS.
