Rough notes on RT release engineering.
|
|
As we've rejiggered the repository, the old tools have gotten a bit
clunkier than I'd like, but the new tools have gotten increasingly
shiny.
So, here's a braindump on how I've created RT 3.8.0rc2 (announcement
pending)
The process clearly still needs some work. (And _must_ become automated)
One change I've made is that we're no longer running the output of svn
log --verbose into the dist. It bloats the size by 10% and doesn't
really provide anything over what you get from svn log. (And anyone
who cares enough will almost certainly want to prod at the repository
for diffs)
# Tag the branch
svk br --create 3.8.0rc2 --tag --from 3.8.0-releng --project rt-3.8
# Check out the newly tagged version and update the version number.
# This is unacceptable for the long-term release process. Perhaps we
want a trivial expression to grab it from the cwd of the checkout
