title: Releasing Velero plugins
|

layout: docs

|
Velero plugins maintained by the core maintainers do not have any shipped binaries, only container images, so there is no need to invoke a GoReleaser script.
|
|
Container images are built via a CI job on git push.
|
|
|
|
Plugins the Velero core team is responsible include all those listed in [the Velero-supported providers list](supported-providers.md) _except_ the vSphere plugin.
|
|
|
|
1. Update the README.md file to update the compatibility matrix and `velero install` instructions with the expected version number and open a PR.
|
|
1. Determining the version number is based on semantic versioning and whether the plugin uses any newly introduced, changed, or removed methods or variables from Velero.
|
|
1. Once the updated README.md PR is merged, checkout the upstream `main` branch. `git checkout upstream/main`.
|
|
1. Tag the git version - `git tag v<version>`.
|
|
1. Push the git tag - `git push --tags <upstream remote name>`
|
|
1. Wait for the container images to build
