* If there are new styling or datasource options, create a new `mapnik-reference` entry for the release: https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik-reference
* Update master branches entries in [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) from the new release (if relevant, e.g. if you are tagging and releasing a stable release not from the master branch).
For example to sync up master [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) with `v3.0.x` branch:
```
git checkout master
git checkout --patch v3.0.x CHANGELOG.md
git commit -v
git push origin master
```
If this was a major release and a stable series is likely, now branch it, for example a `2.1.0` release would warrant an immediate `2.1.x` branch for a stable series of bugfix releases.
