View source for Bumping QML Module Versions

This page documents the process for bumping a QML module in Qt.

== Bump qmldirs, docs, and .pros ==
This patch does all three at once:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/221809/

== Bump imports of QML files using the module itself ==

For example:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/221211/

== Bump plugins.qmltypes ==

For example:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/221397/

== Bump any imported versions of QML files that follow the Qt version ==

Qt's version is bumped by increasing MODULE_VERSION in qtbase/.qmake.conf:

https://github.com/qt/qtbase/commit/df9de3e4543b8f8bf4ec4c53921700133e37f051

QT_VERSION is then deduced from that:

http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/configure#n343

After that, the Qt version bump in qtbase will need to integrate to qt5.git. For example, in the case of the commit above, that was done here:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/204113/

Once all of that has happened, any imports of a module whose version follows the Qt version (such as QtQuick) can be bumped:
