• Ensure your local 'develop' branch is up-to-date
  Make sure that the path that the source is checked out to does not contain spaces.

• Create a new remote 'release' branch

  Code Block
  git checkout -b releaseX.Y.Z git push -u origin releaseX.Y.Z

  Another RM originally suggested using the below command instead, but that caused the develop branch to track the release branch and made merging more confusing later

  Code Block
  git push -u origin develop:releaseX.Y.Z

• Create a new directory, change to it and check out the develop branch.

  Code Block
  git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-sdk.git .

• Checkout the new release branch with:

  Code Block
  git checkout releaseX.Y.Z

   

  Most of the rest of these steps have been placed in an Ant script so you can run one script and not have to keep referring back to these steps and worry about typing the commands correctly.  See Release Manager and Release Voter Ant Scripts for details on the scripts

   

• Tag the release

  Code Block
  git tag -a apache-flex-sdk-X.Y.ZRCx -m 'Apache Flex X.Y.Z RCx' git push --tags
