## Release Process

The branded Python emitter (`@azure-tools/typespec-python`) wraps the unbranded emitter (`@typespec/http-client-python`). There is no separate release of the branded emitter, unless there is a breaking change or the highest version value changes (ie. 0.3.0 -> 0.4.0 or 1.0.0 to 2.0.0); instead, the release process involves updating the dependency on the unbranded emitter.

For the unbranded emitter release process, see the [http-client-python CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/microsoft/typespec/blob/main/packages/http-client-python/CONTRIBUTING.md#release-process).

Once a new version of the unbranded emitter has been released, follow section [Updating Emitter Option Documentation](https://github.com/microsoft/typespec/blob/main/packages/http-client-python/CONTRIBUTING.md#post-release-updating-azure-sdk-for-python) to update azure-sdk-for-python repo.
