✅ Release Checklist

⬅️ Before RC1

• [ ] Make sure all Lotus dependencies are updated to the correct versions for the network upgrade
  • Link to Lotus PR:
• [ ] Open PR against RELEASE_ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md with title docs(release): v1.32.0 release template improvements for improving future releases.
  • Link to PR:
  • There likely aren't any changes at this point, but this can be opened with a small whitespace change so the PR is open and we can more easily hold the standard of making improvements incrementally since improvements are usually better done by collecting changes/notes along the way rather than just thinking about it at the end.
  • This will get merged in a Post Release step.
• master branch Version string updates
  • [ ] bump the version(s) in build/version.go to v1.32.1-dev.
  • [ ] Run make gen && make docsgen-cli before committing changes.
  • [ ] Update the CHANGELOG
    • [ ] Change the UNRELEASED section header to UNRELEASED v1.32.0
    • [ ] Set the UNRELEASED v1.32.0 section's content to be "See https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/blob/release/v1.32.0/CHANGELOG.md"
    • [ ] Add a new UNRELEASED header to top.
  • [ ] Create a PR with title build: update Lotus Node and Miner version to v1.32.1-dev in master
