Create the Release Candidate

Prepare Release Notes

See example release notes from previous releases on the wiki site and prepare similar notes. 

...

1. Update the wiki with these release notes for the new release
2. Update the release notes file in the source code: https://github.com/rashmi815/incubator-madlib/blob/master/RELEASE_NOTES (create PR and merge)

Prepare Tarballs

1. Branch your release:

   git checkout -b <your release name> <commit sha1> 

   push to origin:
   git push origin <your release name>

   


2. Apply signed tag on release branch

   Example:

    git tag -u <GPG KEY ID> --sign <your release name>-rc# -m "Apache MADlib (Incubating) <your release name> RC#" <SHA of HEAD of branch>
    

3. Make a tarball and gzip:
   

   git archive -o ../apache-madlib-<your release name>-incubating-src.tar --prefix=apache-madlib-<your release name>-incubating-src/ <your tag/branch name>
   gzip ../apache-madlib-<your release name>-incubating-src.tar

   Example:

   $ git archive -o ../apache-madlib-1.11-incubating-src.tar --prefix=apache-madlib-1.11-incubating-src/ 1.11-incubating
   $ gzip ../apache-madlib-1.11-incubating-src.tar

Prepare rpm and dmg binaries

Execute the following commands in the build directory:

$ cmake <path to source code directory>

$ make 

$ make package

Sign the Release Candidate

Check that md5, shasum, and gpg (or gpg2) are installed on your machine:
