+# Cutting a new release of the Spin Python SDK
+
+To cut a new release, you will need to do the following:
+
+1. Confirm that [CI is green](https://github.com/spinframework/spin-python-sdk/actions) for the commit selected to be tagged and released.
+
+1. If not already bumped, set the intended release version in [pyproject.toml](./pyproject.toml), create a pull request with these changes and merge once approved.
+
+1. Checkout the commit with the version bump from above.
+
+1. Create and push a new tag with a `v` and then the version number.
+
+    As an example, via the `git` CLI:
+
+    ```
+    # Create a GPG-signed and annotated tag
+    git tag -s -m "Spin Python SDK v3.1.0" v4.1.0
+
+    # Push the tag to the remote corresponding to spinframework/spin-python-sdk (here 'origin')
+    git push origin v4.1.0
+    ```
+
+1. Pushing the tag upstream will trigger the [release action](https://github.com/spinframework/spin-python-sdk/actions/workflows/release.yml) which publishes the distribution to pypi.org
+
+1. If applicable, create PR(s) or coordinate [documentation](https://github.com/spinframework/spin-docs) needs, e.g. for new features or updated functionality.
