You have wc-price-history-svn directory where you have the whole svn copy (it has wc-price-history and trunk, tags inside)

Steps

readme.txt has updated Changelog section

readme.txt has updated FAQ section and description

README.md has optionally updated content

go to directory where wc-price-history-svn is

run wc_price_update_svn_trunk

check if you have a new files with svn status | grep ?

add each new file with svn add {path}

push changes to the svn

svn ci -m "Pushing x.x.x to the trunk"

check the trunk

In other terminal in other directory run:

svn co https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/wc-price-history

go to cloned directory, get trunk directory and move to some sites' plugins directory and test if plugin works.

tag new version

Go back to previous directory and run:

svn cp trunk/ tags/{x.x.x}

and run:

svn ci -m "Tagging 2.0.0"
