Releasing a Pear Application

As covered in Sharing a Pear App, Pear use release channels in a similar way that git use branches. When the app has been tested, and it's ready to release it, it's really simple.

Step 1. Release

Assume that the app was staged into example, then releasing it is simply:

$ pear release example

This moves the example channel to the released version. The seeders who are already seeding that channel, will still be seeding.
