Before the Release

Prepare Build Environment

  • once Checkout releng on build.eclipse.org
ssh build.eclipse.org
git clone /gitroot/mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn.git
  • Update releng on build.eclipse.org from Git
cd ~/org.eclipse.mylyn/
git pull
  • once Make sure your have Java 5.0 or later in your path. Settings for $HOME/.bashrc on build.eclipse.org:
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/public/common/jdk-1.6.x86_64
export ECLIPSE_HOME=~/.m2/repository/org/eclipse/tycho/tycho-p2-runtime/0.12.0/eclipse
  • once Run Maven on build.eclipse.org to download runtime
cd org.eclipse.mylyn
mvn package
  • once Create symlinks for convenience
ln -s /home/data/httpd/archive.eclipse.org/ ~/archive
ln -s org.eclipse.mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn.releng ~/releng

Create a Branch

  • major release Branch integration repository
git clone ssh://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn.all src-3_6_x
cd src-3_6_x
git checkout -b e_3_7_m_3_6_x
git submodule init
git submodule update
  • major release Branch each sub-project
git submodule foreach git pull
git submodule foreach git checkout -b e_3_7_m_3_6_x master
  • major release Request mylyn-3.6.x-release job on Hudson cloning an existing release job

Prepare Source Code

Internationalize Messages

  • Run Source > Find Broken Externalized Strings over all bundles
  • Run Source > Externalize Strings over all bundles

Update User Guide from the Wiki

  • Run org.eclipse.mylyn.help.ui/build-helper.xml as an Ant Build (ensure WikiText is checked out into your workspace)
  • Review the user guide and commit changes

Update Copyright Notices

  • Update the year in the about.ini to the current year
  • Update the year in all feature.xml files to the current year for changed features
  • Update the year in copyright notices of changed source files: Install platform releng tools, Project context menu > Fix Copyrights

Backport changes to the Platform Specific Branches

  • Merge changes from master in each branched module
git merge master

Update Integration Repository

  • Update integration repository to point to latest sub-project revisions
cd src-3_6_x
./update.sh

Run Tests

The Release

Update Target

  • Update target files in org.eclipse.mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn-target to point to release sites of dependencies to ensure builds are reproducible in the future

Tag Sources

  • Tag the release as R_x_y_z (and R_x_y_z_e_3_3 if plug-ins are branched)
./foreach.sh git tag R_3_6_3
  • Tag sub-projects with their respective versions as vx.y.z (e.g. v0.8.1):
org.eclipse.mylyn.builds
org.eclipse.mylyn.docs
org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews
org.eclipse.mylyn.versions
  • Push tags
git submodule foreach git push --tags

Build

mvn -Prelease -DforceContextQualifier=v20110304-0100 -Ppublish -Phudson.eclipse.org -Pindigo -Dexplicit-target -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dtycho-version=0.12.0 -Dsign-dir=tools/mylyn/hudson/release clean install
  • Snapshot build (manually):
mvn -Psnapshot -Ppublish -Phudson.eclipse.org -Pindigo -Dexplicit-target -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dtycho-version=0.12.0 -Dsign-dir=tools/mylyn/hudson/snapshot clean install

Verify Update Site Contents

  • Check that only approved features are on the update site
  • Check that all Orbit bundles are tracked in approved CQs

Update Discovery Jar

Run org.eclipse.mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn.discovery-directory/build-helper.xml to produce a new jar (check that the listings are up to date first). Then copy org.eclipse.mylyn.discovery.jar to ~/downloads/mylyn/discovery/, renaming it with the Mylyn version.

Make a second copy of the jar named with the next Mylyn version so that updating the framework version after the release (below) will not cause tests to fail.

Test Install

Prepare Download Area

  • Log into Eclipse.org
ssh build.eclipse.org
  • Remove Old Integration Builds
rm -rf ~/downloads/mylyn/drops/3.6.0/I*
  • Also remove all RC builds (builds starting with a 'v') other than the latest
  • Copy Release to archive.eclipse.org
cp -a ~/downloads/mylyn/drops/3.6.0 /home/data/httpd/archive.eclipse.org/mylyn/drops
  • Run script to add mirror URLs
cd ~/downloads/mylyn/drops/3.6.0/
~/releng/bin/update-metadata.sh
  • Check that the content.jar contains the following property:
<property name="p2.mirrorsURL" value="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/mylyn/drops/.../v.../&protocol=http&format=xml"/>

Update Release Repository Content

  • Log into Eclipse.org
ssh build.eclipse.org
  • Update filters in ~/downloads/mylyn/releases/*/composite.index
    • Ensure that ~/downloads/mylyn/releases/3.6 exists, where 3.6 is the version to be released, and that it contains a composite.index with appropriate content
  • Update release composite sites
cd ~/downloads/mylyn/releases/
~/releng/bin/create-composite.sh -r
cp -r 3.6 latest
