Tahoe Release Checklist [0/19]
- make sure buildbot, travis, appveyor are green
- NEWS.rst: summarize user-visible changes, aim for one page of text
-
update doc files
- NEWS.rst: Add final release name and date to top-most item in NEWS.
- relnotes.txt
- CREDITS
- docs/known_issues.rst
- change docs/INSTALL.rst to point to just the current tahoe-lafs-X.Y.Z.tar.gz source code file
- announce the tree is locked on IRC
- git pull, should be empty
-
git tag -s -u 68666A7A -m "release Tahoe-LAFS-X.Y.Z" tahoe-lafs-X.Y.Z
- produces a "signed tag"
- build locally to make sure the release is reporting itself as the intended version, make tarballs too (for comparison only)
-
push tag to trigger buildslaves. Making a code change is no longer necessary (TODO: pushing just 1.12.0b2 was insufficient: travis fired, but not buildbot)
- git push official master TAGNAME
- that will build tarballs
- make sure buildbot is green
- download tarballs+wheels
- announce tree is unlocked
- compare tarballs+wheels against local copies (but sign upstreams)
- sign each with "gpg -ba -u 68666a7a FILE"
- twine upload dist/*
- test "pip install tahoe-lafs" (from PyPI)
- upload *.asc to org ~source/downloads/
- copy the release tarball,sigs to tahoe-lafs.org: ~source/downloads/
