THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
...
- Tag "proxy-1.0-rc3" but with the version number set to "1.0". This is so the release does not have to be rebuilt later just to fix the version.
- Check out the tag proxy-1.0-rc3 into a clean local working directory
- Build the release artifacts - I think there's a couple of options here:
- Run the following maven command:
mvn site javadoc:jar source:jar assembly:assembly
This will create all the artifacts - jars and src and binary distros, but then you need to create checksums and sign (James Carman: link to how to do this?) - Run the following maven command:
mvn -Prc -DcreateChecksum=true site install
This should create all the artifacts installed in your local m2 repository, signed and checksums (note it also creates checksums for signature files - I delete those)
- Run the following maven command:
- Upload the artifacts to people.apache.org/~<userid>/proxy-1.0-rc3 (e.g.) and call a vote on dev@ (James Carman: isn't there a mvn command to do this?)
Wiki Markup Make sure that your signing key has been \[http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html#keys-policy added\] to the commons-wide KEYS file (http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/trunks-proper/KEYS) found in SVN. \\
- The vote e-mail should include:
- URL for artifacts
- URL for SVN tag
- URL for website
- If the VOTE passes, then the RC tag can just be copied to the formal release tag, i.e. without the RC suffix. The RC tag should be kept.
- If the VOTE fails, the failed RC tag can be deleted if required.
