Steps detailing a patch release (using rel-410 (version 4.1) is given as an example):

1. Ensure the database changes have been added to the sql/patch.sql file (and tests that it works)
2. Increment the $v_realpatch variable in the version.php file
3. Build a zip file of all files that have been modified in rel-410 (since the official 4.1 release)
4. Release the zip file
  • Place in 'Patches' tracker on sourceforge with description (attach the zip patch file there)
  • On the OpenEMR Patches download page, place the description and a link to the patch file.
  • Announce the release in the forums and on the Twitter Feed and on the Facebook page.
