-releasing mmh
--------------
-
-To make a public release of mmh (we'll use version 1.0 as example
-here):
-
- 1. % echo 1.0 > VERSION
- % date +"%Y-%m-%d" > DATE
- (DATE should contain something like "2012-12-08")
-
- 2. % git commit VERSION DATE; git push
-
- 3. % git tag -a mmh-1.0 -m 'Releasing mmh-1.0'
-
- 4. % make mmhdist
-
- 5. Untar mmh-1.0.tar.gz and `diff -r' it vs. your workspace. Make
- sure no files got left out of the distribution that should be in
- it (due to someone forgetting to update the DIST variables in the
- Makefiles).
-
- 6. If you have root access on your machine, it's good at this point
- to do:
-
- % chown -R 0:0 mmh-1.0
- % tar cvf - mmh-1.0 | gzip -c > mmh-1.0.tar.gz
-
- If you leave the files in the archive as being owned by yourself,
- your UID may coincide with one of a user on a machine where mmh is
- being installed, making it possible for that user to Trojan the mmh
- code before the system administrator finishes installing it.
-
- 7. Make sure your new tarball uncompresses and untars with no problem.
- Make sure you can configure, make, and install mmh from it.
-
- 8. If all is well and your tarball is final, go back to your workspace
- and do:
-
- % echo 1.0+dev > VERSION
-
- 9. % git commit VERSION; git push
-
-10. Generate an MD5 hash and a PGP signature of the tarball:
-
- % md5sum mmh-1.0.tar.gz > mmh-1.0.tar.gz.md5sum
- % gpg -ab mmh-1.0.tar.gz
-
- You can verify the hash and signature with:
-
- % md5sum -c mmh-1.0.tar.gz.md5sum
- % gpg --verify mmh-1.0.tar.gz.asc
-
-11. Upload the files to the web space:
-
- % scp -p mmh-1.0.tar.gz* marmaro.de:.../prog/mmh/
-
-12. Update the homepage.
-
-13. Add a news item to relevant pages, e.g. freshmeat.net.
-
-14. Send the release announcement email to the following places:
-
-
- *or* (bidirectional gateway)
-
- If the release fixes significant security holes, also send an
- announcement to bugtraq@securityfocus.com.
-
- Preferably, the announcement should contain:
- - the URL for the tarball
- - the MD5 hash
- - the URL of the website
- - a brief summary of visible changes
- - the URL of the git diff page that shows a detailed list of
- changes. The changes between 0.9 and 1.0 would be shown by:
-
-
- Further more, the message should be PGP-signed.
