This page intended to give some instructions for a release manager who is not familiar with Release Process internals.

It is step-by-step instruction for Ignite 2.x releases.

Check readme.txt from https://github.com/apache/ignite-release/tree/master/scripts README.txt there contains some additional requirement and setup steps.

This step is performed only once. If you don’t have your Apache key set up, please see https://www.apache.org/dev/openpgp.html#home on how to generate a new key.

Steps to be followed:

• Setup gpg home (optional) and configuration file (gpg.conf) according to the page.
• Check version and settings using
  gpg --version
  (version >1.4.1, SHA512 is recommended).
• Generate new key pair `gpg --gen-key` Parameters: RSA/4096/never expires/use your name and apache email/comment:CODE SIGNING KEY
• Check preferences using `gpg --edit-key` CAFEBABE and sub-command `showpref`
• See section 'Create/Import your pgp secret key' in Readme.txt in https://github.com/apache/ignite-release/tree/master/scripts
