Deploying snapshots

To deploy a snapshot (Apache committers only), run

mvn -Pdeploy deploy

That will deploy the latest snapshot along with the javadoc and source jar bundles to apaches snapshot repository. After deploying the snapshot, you need to login to people.apache.org and fix the permissions. cd to /www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository and run the fix-permissions.sh script.

You can speed up the process by doing a couple things:

1. Run with extra flags to skip the code checks and running of the tests

   No Format
   mvn -Pdeploy,nochecks deploy -Dmaven.test.skip.exec=true

2. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: use a "Master Mode" ssh connection to people.apache.org for the scp commands to use. This requires a fairly recent version of ssh. Basically, in your ~/.ssh/config, make sure you have "ControlPath /tmp/%h-%p-%r" set. Then, in one window, run "ssh -Mv people.apache.org". Then run the deploy in another. The -v on the ssh connection will print things for each connection so you'll know it working. This is MUCH faster as SCP doesn't need to negotiate encryption stuff for every single file, doesn't need to open up lots of connections, etc....

If your user name on people.apache.org is not the same as your user name on your home system, you will need to add some configuration to your ~/.m2/settings.xml. The following works on the assumption that you've published your ssh
public key to people.apache.org.

Snapshots are automatically deployed every night to the Nexus snapshot repository at https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots-group/^{Image Added} . There is no need to manually deploy snapshots anymore.
