### Marking a release line as LTS
963963

964+
The process of marking a release line as LTS has been automated using
965+
[node-core-utils](https://github.com/nodejs/node-core-utils).
966+
967+
Start by checking out the staging branch for the release line that is going to
968+
be marked as LTS, e.g:
969+
970+
```console
971+
$ git checkout v1.x-staging
972+
```
973+
974+
Next, make sure you have **node-core-utils** installed:
975+
976+
```console
977+
$ npm i -g node-core-utils
978+
```
979+
980+
Run the prepare LTS release command:
981+
982+
```console
983+
$ git node release --prepare --startLTS
984+
```

Updating changelogs to properly reflect the changes between **Current** and
1018+
**Long Term Support** is also necessary, along with adding a reference to the
1019+
current LTS codename in its release line changelog file.
1020+
1021+
The `test/parallel/test-process-release.js` file might also need to be updated.

In case you can not run the automated `node-core-utils` command and you are
1024+
currently running these steps manually it's a good idea to refer to previous
1025+
LTS proposal PRs and make sure all required changes are covered.
