 1. Run `utilities/update_pom_version.sh` from the repository's base directory.
 This script takes an optional argument denoting the new version.  By default, if the current version is X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT, the script will update the version in all the pom.xml files to X.Y.Z.  If desired, another version can be supplied via command line argument instead.

+PRs that don't release new modules should look something like [#225](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-java/pull/225).  PRs that do release a new module should also add the appropriate packages to the javadoc groups "SPI" and "Test helpers", as shown in [#802](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-java/pull/802) for `gcloud-java-dns`. After this PR is merged into GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-java, Travis CI will push a new website to GoogleCloudPlatform/gh-pages, push a new artifact to the Maven Central Repository, and update versions in the README files.  Do not merge in any non-release-related pull requests between the start of step 2 and the end of step 6.  Between these steps, the project version is a non-snapshot version, so any commits to the master branch will cause Travis to spend extra resources attempting to redeploy artifacts.
 
-3. Before moving on, verify that the artifacts have successfully been pushed to the Maven Central Repository.  Open Travis CI, click the ["Build History" tab](https://travis-ci.org/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-java/builds), and open the second build's logs for Step 2's PR.  Be sure that you are not opening the "Pull Request" build logs.  When the build finishes, scroll to the end of the log and verify that the artifacts were successfully staged and deployed.  You can also search for `gcloud-java` on the [Sonatype website](https://oss.sonatype.org/#nexus-search;quick~gcloud-java) and check the latest version number.  If the deployment didn't succeed because of a flaky test, rerun the build.

In rare cases (when the Maven plugin that determines the version of the repository fails), the artifacts may not be deployed even if the version in the pom.xml files doesn't contain `SNAPSHOT`.  If the artifacts weren't deployed due to invalid version parsing or a flaky test, rerun the build.
 
 4. Publish a release on Github manually.
 Go to the [releases page](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-java/releases) and open the appropriate release draft. Make sure the "Tag Version" is `vX.Y.Z` and the "Release Title" is `X.Y.Z`, where `X.Y.Z` is the release version as listed in the `pom.xml` files.  The draft should already have all changes that impact users since the previous release.  To double check this, you can use the `git log` command and look through the merged master branch pull requests.
