 # 1. Check that 'git status' shows 4 files in modified and uncommitted state: DESCRIPTION, NEWS.md, init.c and this .dev/CRAN_Release.cmd
 # 2. Bump patch version in DESCRIPTION to next odd number. Note that DESCRIPTION was in edited and uncommitted state so even number never appears in git.
 # 3. Add new heading in NEWS for the next dev PATCH version. Add "(submitted to CRAN on <today>)" on the released heading.
