Notes to myself on all the steps to make for a Ninja release.
|
|
|
|
### Push new release branch:
|
|
1. Run afl-fuzz for a day or so and run ninja_test
|
|
2. Consider sending a heads-up to the ninja-build mailing list first
|
|
3. Make sure branches 'master' and 'release' are synced up locally
|
|
4. Update src/version.cc with new version (with ".git"), then
|
|
```
|
|
git commit -am 'mark this 1.5.0.git'
|
|
```
|
|
5. git checkout release; git merge master
|
|
6. Fix version number in src/version.cc (it will likely conflict in the above)
|
|
7. Fix version in doc/manual.asciidoc (exists only on release branch)
|
|
8. commit, tag, push (don't forget to push --tags)
|
|
```
|
|
git commit -am v1.5.0; git push origin release
|
|
git tag v1.5.0; git push --tags
|
|
# Push the 1.5.0.git change on master too:
|
|
git checkout master; git push origin master
|
|
```
|
|
9. Construct release notes from prior notes
|
|
|
|
credits: `git shortlog -s --no-merges REV..`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Release on GitHub:
|
|
1. Go to [Tags](https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/tags)
|
|
2. Open the newly created tag and select "Create release from tag"
|
|
3. Create the release which will trigger a build which automatically attaches
|
|
the binaries
|
|
|
|
### Make announcement on mailing list:
|
|
1. copy old mail
|
|
|
|
### Update website:
|
|
1. Make sure your ninja checkout is on the v1.5.0 tag
|
|
2. Clone https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja-build.github.io
|
|
3. In that repo, `./update-docs.sh`
|
|
4. Update index.html with newest version and link to release notes
|
|
5. `git commit -m 'run update-docs.sh, 1.5.0 release'`
|
|
6. `git push origin master`
