requires both wheel and twine packages installed
```
pip install wheel twine
```
Update version number in version.py.
Check and update setup.py if needed (dependencies, metadata etc.).
Build the package locally:
```
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
```
Note: No need to add --unversal parameter, since biothings package now requires Python3, with no support of Python2 any more.
Test the package built locally:
```
pip install dist/biothings-0.9.0-py3-none-any.whl
```
And run any local test as needed (e.g. run nosetests on a local BioThings API instance).
Prepare github repo for the release:
- Create a version branch (no need for every micro versions):
```
git checkout -b 0.9.x
git push -u origin "0.9.x"
```
  Note: future version-specific bug-fixes (with increased micro versions) will go to this branch (possibly cherry-picked from master branch).
- Create a tag for each released version (with "v" prefix):
```
git tag -a "v0.9.0" -m "tagging v0.9.0 for release"
```
- If everything looks good, push to the remote:
```
git push --tags
```
Upload to PyPI:
```
twine upload dist/*
```
Note: for now, this step needs to be done by @newgene under "newgene" PyPI account.
master branch is our dev branch. After a successful release, update major and/or minor version to the next release version, and update micro as "dev". Here is an example after "v0.9.0" release:
```
MAJOR_VER=0
MINOR_VER=8
MICRO_VER="dev"
```
