### Create the Release Branch
Once the next release version is decided, create the new release branch from `main`:
Once the next release version is decided, create the new release branch from `main` in PX4-Autopilot and the companion repositories:
```sh
# Ensure main is up to date
git checkout main
git pull
# Create the new release branch
# PX4-Autopilot
git checkout main && git pull
git checkout -b release/1.18
git push origin release/1.18
```
Matching release branches must also be created in:
- [PX4/px4_msgs](https://github.com/PX4/px4_msgs)
- [Auterion/px4-ros2-interface-lib](https://github.com/Auterion/px4-ros2-interface-lib)
After creating the companion branches, update the [ROS integration test workflow](https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/main/.github/workflows/ros_integration_tests.yml) on the release branch to clone `px4-ros2-interface-lib` from the matching release branch:
```diff
- git clone --recursive https://github.com/Auterion/px4-ros2-interface-lib.git
+ git clone --recursive --branch release/1.18 https://github.com/Auterion/px4-ros2-interface-lib.git
```
::: warning
Once the release branch is created, it only accepts bug fixes and regression fixes. All new feature development continues on `main`.
