I think that is all, bumping VERSION, commiting and tagging was all I did in
the past.

One thing that might be worth doing is bump copyright years on files you've
modified, I know dwz.c has been using mostly Red Hat copyright, if you want
to use say FSF copyright, can you change that 2003 in there to 2003, 2019?
Or do you want to use SUSE copyright instead?
I guess because I have touched dwz.c last year the RH copyright should be
-2018 instead of -2015 too, and dwarf2.def should be probably changed to
1992-2018 FSF copyright, using the simple range.  After the release we
should likely import new dwarf2.def and dwarf2.h from GCC tree.
