I'm starting to think about the 2.0.4 release, for mid-May, perhaps, and so want to get clear about how to do it now with git before I get into the details. The procedure is documented here:
    http://wiki.lyx.org/Devel/ReleaseProcedure#toc8
It looks to me as if there are only a few steps that need changing.

At one point, we used to do:
|svn export . ~/lyx/lyx-export|
What is the git equivalent?

Instead of the svn command to create a tag, I am guessing I should do:
    git tag -a -m 'This is LyX 2.0.4.'  2.0.4 2.0.x
    git push origin 2.0.4
Yes?

Any thoughts about how the diff that generates the patch should be changed? Obviously, the .svn exclusion isn't needed. Should that be replaced by "-x .git"?
