• Versioning
• Stabilizing a release

Steps to sign a release:

• As a release manager, I believe you should have created signing key by following Apache documentation (https://www.apache.org/dev/openpgp.html#key-gen-generate-key)

...

• In this example  I am considering 0.6.0-incubating release branch and current directory is /home/user1.

...

• Clone release branch with command

# cd /home/user1
# git clone -b 0.6.0-incubating --single-branch https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-fineract.git apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src

...

• Make sure build is happening and all integration tests are passed by following steps defined in readme.md

...

• Create a binary directory with release version. In this example the directory name is /home/user1/apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary

...

• Build war file and copy into binary directory. Extract LICENSE, NOTICE, DISCLAIMER files from fineract-provider.war and place them in binary directory.

...

• Now create a tar file of binary directory with below command. You can see apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz file in /home/user1 directory.

# cd /home/user1
# tar -zcvf apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary

. You can see apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz file in /home/user1 directory.

...

• Now move to apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src and remove all git configuration directories/files. Remove bin, catalina.base_IS_UNDEFINED, build directories from fineract-provider directory

...

• Remove gradle wrapper jar file from apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating/fineract-provider/gradle/wrapper

...

• Now create source tar file with command tar -zcvf apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src. Now you can see apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz file in /home/user1 directory.

...

• Next step is to create detached signature, checksum with MD5 and SHA with the following commands

# cd /home/user1
# gpg --armor --output apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz.asc --detach-sig apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz
# gpg --print-md MD5 apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz > apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz.md5
# gpg --print-md SHA512 apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz > apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz.sha
# gpg --armor --output apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz.asc --detach-sig apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz
# gpg --print-md MD5 apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz > apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz.md5
# gpg --print-md SHA512 apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz > apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz.sha

• Finally create a directory with release name (0.6.0-incubating in this example) in https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/fineract and add the following files in this new directory.

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz.sha

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz.asc

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-binary.tar.gz.md5

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz.sha

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz.asc

  • apache-fineract-0.6.0-incubating-src.tar.gz.md5
