How to cut a new release

This is a short version of uCentral branching model doc with specifics for this repo. To cut a new release following steps must be done:

1. Create release branch with next Chart version (check Git tags for the latest version - for example if latest tag was v0.1.0, create release branch release/v0.1.1), set required microservices tags in refs in Chart.yaml (for example, if we want to have this version to be tied to ucentralgw release version v2.0.0, we should set it’s repository to "git+https://github.com/Telecominfraproject/wlan-cloud-ucentralgw@helm?ref=v2.0.0").
2. Increase Helm version in Chart.yaml to the same version as Git tag (for example if the latest git tag is v0.1.0, set version 0.1.1 (without v in it) in Chart.yaml).
3. Also increase the microservice image tags used by the Docker Compose deployments according to the release in the 'Image tags' section of the docker-compose/.env, docker-compose/.env.selfsigned and docker-compose/.env.letsencrypt files.
4. Create new git tag from release branch. The Git tag should have the same name as the intended release version. Once the tag is pushed to the repo, Github will trigger a build process that will create an assembly Helm chart bundle with all version fixed to the release equal to the Git tag name and will publish it to the public Artifactory and as GitHub release asset.
5. Release to the QA namespace using the packaged Helm assembly chart to verify there are no issues related to the deployment.
