Check out the branch with:
Code Block svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/zookeeper/branches/branch-X.Y
git clone -b branch-X.Y https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/zookeeper.git
If not already done, merge desired patches from trunk into the branch and commit these changes. You can find the revision numbers using svn log CHANGES.txt in the branch and in trunk.
Code Block cd branch-X.Y svn merge -rR1:R2 ../trunk . svn commit -m "Merge -r R1:R2 from trunk to X.Y branch. Fixes: ZOOKEEPER-A, ZOOKEEPER-B."
- Do a final pass regeneration of docs by running "ant -Dforrest.home=<path to Forrest> clean docs". If there are any modifications, then they'll show up under the docs folder. If there are any changes, then commit them. However, DO NOT commit changes in docs/releasenotes.html or docs/releasenotes.pdf. (Release notes are handled in a separate step.) Release notes should be regenerated each time a documentation patch is committed. This final pass before the release is intended to catch mistakes in case this step was missed at commit time.
- Update CHANGES.txt to include the release version and date (this change must be committed to trunk and any intermediate branches between trunk and the branch being released).
Update docs/releasenotes.html with release notes Also, update CHANGES.txt with the committed jira details targeted for this release version. As we follow PR merging, jira info is not updated in this file while committing. - Update docs/releasenotes.html with release notes for this release. You can get the HTML by following the . You can get the HTML by following the "Release Notes" link for the relevant release on the https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER?report=com.sourcelabs.jira.plugin.portlet.releases:releases-projecttab#selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project%3Aroadmap-panel tab in Jira.

Building
Build the release & run unit tests.
Code Block ant test package tar
- Untar the generated zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz and do the following:
Sign the toplevel zookeeper-X.Y.Z.jar
Code Block gpg --armor --output zookeeper-X.Y.Z.jar.asc --detach-sig zookeeper-X.Y.Z.jar
Sign each file in dist-maven
Code Block gpg --armor --output file.asc --detach-sig file
Tar/GZ the release directory as zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
Code Block tar -caf zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz zookeeper-X.Y.Z
Generate the MD5/SHA1 checksums for the release artifact.
Code Block md5sum zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz > zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz.md5 sha1sum zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz > zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz.sha1
Sign the release
Code Block gpg --armor --output zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz.asc --detach-sig zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
- Check that release file looks ok - e.g. install it and run examples from tutorial.
- untar the release artifact in a test directory
Copy release files to a public place.
Code Block ssh people.apache.org mkdir public_html/zookeeper-X.Y.Z-candidate-0 scp -p zookeeper-X.Y.Z.tar.gz* people.apache.org:public_html/zookeeper-X.Y.Z-candidate-0
- Stage the release artifacts to the Apache Nexus repository
Create ~/.m2/settings.xml introducing the values that are specific to you:
Code Block <settings> <servers> <server> <id>apache.snapshots.https</id> <username>XXXXXXX</username> <password>XXXXXXXX</password> </server> <server> <id>apache.staging.https</id> <username>XXXXXXX</username> <password>XXXXXXX</password> </server> </servers> <profiles> <profile> <id>gpg</id> <properties> <gpg.passphrase>XXXXXXX</gpg.passphrase> </properties> </profile> </profiles> </settings>
See http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-encryption.html for details on encrypting the passwords rather than leaving them in the clear.
Run the following on the branch check out
Code Block ant mvn-deploy -Dstaging=true
- Enter Apache Nexus and do the following:
Click on Log In in the upper right corner. Log in using your apache user name and password.
In the left navigation pane, select Staging Repositories.
- Identify the release candidate you just pushed, by your user name (in parentheses as part of the "Repository" name) and the "Created On" date. Click on the check box to the left of your Repository name to select it. (If you accidentally click on the Repository name itself, another tab will pop open. If so, just close it.)
Click the Close button above the Repository names. This makes your release candidate available at the Staging level.
If you have previously staged an older release candidate with the same version number, and it is still showing in the Repository list, you must select and Drop the old one now.
Confirm that your new release candidate is visible at https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/staging/org/apache/zookeeper/zookeeper/ with correct file modification dates.
Call for a release vote on dev (note dev@ and not user@, the user list is for discussion of released software only) at zookeeper.apache.org. Here is a sample email (from 3.4.6 release):(from 3.4.6 release):

- After checking in the release, you'll receive an automated email from reporter.apache.org with a link requesting additional details about the release. This form must be completed by a PMC member. If you are a PMC members, follow the link and complete the form. If you are not a PMC member, forward the email to dev@zookeeper.apache.org and ask for assistance from a PMC member.
The release directory usually contains just two releases, the most recent from two branches, with a link named 'stable' to the most recent recommended version.
Code Block cd zookeeper_dist # don't do the following rm for the time being, until we are sure the new rel is actually stable --> ### rm -rf zookeeper-A.B.C rm stable; rm current ln -s zookeeper-A.B.D stable ln -s zookeeper-A.B.D current svn ci -m 'Updating links'

- Click on 'Staging repositories'.
- Select the repository corresponding to the release candidate.
- Click on the 'Release' button and follow instructions.

- Update the release news in site/trunk/content/releases.textile
- Update the nav panel to include X.Y.Z (which may now be "current") site/trunk/templates/sidenav.textile
Regenerate the site, review it, then commit it. (checkout https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/cms/build if you haven't already)
Code Block cd site/trunk .../apache_cms_build/build_site.pl --source-base . --target-base /tmp/sitegen <open /tmp/sitegen/index.html in your browser and verify the site> svn commit -m "Updated site for release X.Y.Z."
Update the "current" doc pointer if necessary (as CMS doesn't currently support symlinks in build/staging we need to push this directly to production)
Code Block svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/production/zookeeper/content cd content/doc rm current ln -s rX.Y.Z current svn commit -m "Updated current pointer for release X.Y.Z"
- Review your changes on the staging site: http://zookeeper.staging.apache.org
Deploy your site changes.
Code Block https://cms.apache.org/redirect?uri=http%3A//zookeeper.apache.org/ publish the site changes
Send announcements to the user and developer lists once the site changes are visible. Here is a sample email:
No Format Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache ZooKeeper X.Y.Z The Apache ZooKeeper team is proud to announce Apache ZooKeeper version X.Y.Z ZooKeeper is a high-performance coordination service for distributed applications. It exposes common services - such as naming, configuration management, synchronization, and group services - in a simple interface so you don't have to write them from scratch. You can use it off-the-shelf to implement consensus, group management, leader election, and presence protocols. And you can build on it for your own, specific needs. For ZooKeeper release details and downloads, visit: http://zookeeper.apache.org/releases.html ZooKeeper X.Y.Z Release Notes are at: http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/rX.Y.Z/releasenotes.html We would like to thank the contributors that made the release possible. Regards, The ZooKeeper Team
- In Jira, ensure that only issues in the "Fixed" state have a "Fix Version" set to release X.Y.Z.
- In Jira, "release" the version. Visit the "Administer Project" page, then the "Manage versions" page. You need to have the "Admin" role in ZooKeeper's Jira for this step and the next.
- In Jira, close issues resolved in the release. Disable mail notifications for this bulk change.
