No Format

svn update
  • edit now the version for build.xml (remove -SNAPSHOT)
    • ./build.xml:
      • section: <property name="jmeter.version" value="2.7"/>
  • PERHAPS, make a "svn update" before tagging
  • create the new RC tag, e.g. v2_7_RC2 RC3 from the workspace
No Format
svn copy -m "Tag for pre-release" . https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jmeter/tags/v2_7_RC2RC3
  • this will create the tag from the contents of the workspace. Only the updated files will be shown in the commit message; most files will be shown as being copied from trunk.
    • N.B. Tags must be immutable, i.e. must not be changed once created. A tag can be deleted if it is no longer needed, but must not be recreated.
      • If there is a problem with the contents of an RC tag, create a new tag, for example v2_7_RC2
      • If the tag is part of an ongoing release vote, do not delete it whilst the vote is ongoing, even if the vote is now using a later tag. It can be useful to be able to compare the contents of tags as part of the voting process.
      • Once the release vote is over, intermediate tags are no longer needed, and can be deleted.
      • If the tag has not been used in a release vote, it can be deleted immediately.
