Prerequisites

Before entering into this process you need to ensure you will be able to cryptographically sign the final result in such a way that others can validate the signature. This can be a confusing process. Here are links to several documents that should help.

Discuss

Send a [DISCUSS] email to the dev@knox list proposing a release.

Prepare

In preparation for each release there are a number of sub-steps required to ensure that that the project's repository is in a suitable state for branching.

Update CHANGES

Update CHANGES.txt with release date (Release X.Y - MM/dd/yyyy) and (if needed) add additional changelog entries.
The CHANGES file can be found in gateway-release/home

Update documentation

Build, Test and Push Changes

git pull
git commit --all --message "Prepare for branch."
ant verify
git push

Tag Branch Point and Branch

git tag --annotate v{X.Y.Z}-branch --message "Branch point for v{X.Y.Z}"
git push origin --tags
git checkout -b v{X.Y.Z}
git push --set-upstream origin v{X.Y.Z}

Clone & Checkout Branch

git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-knox.git knox-{X.Y.Z}
cd knox-{X.Y.Z}
git checkout -t origin/v{X.Y.Z}

Update version numbers on master branch (from A.B.C-SNAPSHOT to D.E.F-SNAPSHOT) and push changes

Update version numbers on release branch (from A.B.C-SNAPSHOT to A.B.C) and push changes

git pull
git commit --all --message "Prepare for branch."
ant verify
git push

Create a new Jenkins job to build the release. It should call these two commands. It is probably best to copy the previous releases job.

mvn -Prelease clean install
ant post-build

Download the release candidate

ant download-candidate

Sanity Test

Do some basic manual testing to see if release looks ok. For example do and install and run through a few of the samples.

Sign

ant sign-candidate

Verify Signatures

Verify the hashes and signatures. First change into the distribution directory.

cd release

Verify the signatures for both the source and binary distribution. Note: This assumes that gpg is installed.

gpg --verify knox-{X.Y.Z}-src.zip.asc knox-{X.Y.Z}-src.zip
gpg --verify knox-{X.Y.Z}.zip.asc knox-{X.Y.Z}.zip

Verify the SHA-1 hashes for both the source and binary distribution. Note: This assumes a Linux or MacOS environment with openssl installed.

cat knox-{X.Y.Z}-src.zip.sha && openssl sha1 knox-{X.Y.Z}-src.zip 
cat knox-{X.Y.Z}.zip.sha && openssl sha1 knox-{X.Y.Z}.zip

Verify the MD5 digest for both the source and binary distribution. Note: This assumes a Linux or MacOS environment with openssl installed.

cat knox-{X.Y.Z}-src.zip.md5 && openssl md5 knox-{X.Y.Z}-src.zip
cat knox-{X.Y.Z}.zip.md5 && openssl md5 knox-{X.Y.Z}.zip

Tag Release Candidate

git tag --annotate vX.Y.Z-rcN --message "vX.Y.Z release candidate N"
git push origin --tags

Stage

Follow the instructions output by the sign step above. Basically execute this command.

ant stage-candidate

Vote

Send a [VOTE] email to the dev@knox list. A template was output by the sign step above as target/vote.eml.

From: {release-manager}
To: dev@knox.incubator.apache.org
Subject: [VOTE] Release Apache Knox (Incubator) {X.Y.Z}

A candidate for the Apache Knox (Incubator) {X.Y.Z} release is available at:

http://people.apache.org/~{release-manager}/knox/{X.Y.Z}/

The release candidate is a zip archive of the sources in:

https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-knox.git
Branch {X.Y.Z}

The SHA1 checksum of the archive is {checksum}.

Please vote on releasing this package as Apache Knox (Incubator) {X.Y.Z}.
The vote is open for the next 72 hours and passes if a majority of at
least three +1 Apache Knox (Incubator) PMC votes are cast.

[ ] +1 Release this package as Apache Knox (Incubator) {X.Y.Z}
[ ] -1 Do not release this package because...

Iterate based on feedback until vote passes

Once vote passes, tag the release:

git tag --annotate v{X.Y.Z}-release --message "Release of v{X.Y.Z}"
git push origin --tags

Promote

ant promote-release

Verify that the results are accessible.

https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/knox/

Wait 24 hours for release to propagate to mirrors.

Update site

Update news in src/site/src/documentation/content/xdocs/index.xml and for main lucene.apache.org site stored at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/site/. The second change may require additional rights

Create version in JIRA for release X.Y.

Send announcements to the user and developer lists.
