Creating a release

github actions and azure pipelines are green (Usually the case these days) for the release branch 0-19, 0-20, etc
Update the version in system.nim
Update the changelog (put the release date, copy it to e.g. changelog_0_20_0.md)
Nightlies now build the binaries for us: https://github.com/nim-lang/nightlies/releases
Ensure nightly builds exist
DO NOT Update csources anymore, it's frozen forever.
Check out the $VERSION_HASH part of the URL from https://github.com/nim-lang/nightlies/releases
ssh username@servername
run nimrelease/nimrelease all $NIM_VER $VERSION_HASH, for example, nimrelease/nimrelease all 1.0.4 2019-11-27-version-1-0-c8998c4

(The nimrelease program can be found here: https://github.com/Araq/nimrelease )

Git Tag

Create a new blog post in _drafts titled: version-<ver>-released.md where <ver> is the version without any dots, e.g. 0180 for 0.18.0.
When ready to release:
- move the blog post into _posts, making sure to append the current date to its filename: 2017-09-31-title.md.
- modify config.yml's version key to the new version
- git commit
  - TIP: Here is a real-life example of a commit that signifies a release: https://github.com/nim-lang/website/commit/6f95916dee1212dcf5465d74dcff14e01f714503. The draft blog post was created in earlier commits, but hopefully it's pretty easy to figure out how it was made.
  - TIP2: You can see what a draft post looks like by running jekyll serve --drafts inside the website's jekyll directory.
- git push live master (the live remote is a strict secret)
