Oliver Drotbohm 6aee8d0731 #115 - Train checkout now correctly identifies when to checkout master branch.
We now try to find a GA release tag for each module on train checkout. If that's not found, we check out the master branch instead of the maintenance branch.

Removed unnecessary invocation of git pull as the checkout before has already pulled the respective branch.

  1. Infrastructure requirements
  • Pivotal VPN account
  • User account (for SCP access) on docs.af.pivotal.io. Needs to be registered within local settings.xml for a server named static-dot-s2.
  • Credentials for buildmaster accounts on https://repo.spring.io.
  • Credentials for https://oss.sonatype.org (to deploy and promote GA and service releases, need deployment permissions for org.springframework.data) in settings.xml for server with id sonatype.
  1. Add an application-local.properties to the project root and add the following properties:
  • git.username - Your GitHub username.
  • git.password - Your GitHub password or API key.
  • git.author - Your full name (used for preparing commits).
  • git.email - Your email (used for preparing commits).
  • maven.mavenHome - Pointing to the location of your Maven installation.
  • deployment.api-key - The API key to use for artifact promotion.
  • deployment.password - The password of the deployment user (buildmaster).

See application-local.template for details.

  1. Run mvn package appassembler:assemble && sh target/appassembler/bin/spring-data-release-shell

  2. Pre-release checks

Make sure that:

  • Upgrade dependencies in Spring Data Build parent pom (mind minor/major version rules)
  • All release tickets are present ($ tracker releasetickets $trainIteration)
  • Review open tickets for release
  • Self-assign release tickets ($ tracker prepare $trainIteration)
  • Announce release preparations to mailing list
  1. Commands to execute
$ release prepare $trainIteration
$ release build $trainIteration
$ release conclude $trainIteration
$ git push $trainIteration
$ git push $trainIteration --tags
$ release distribute $trainIteration
$ git backport changelog $trainIteration --target $targets
$ foreach $target -> git push $target
  1. Post-release tasks
  • Close Jira tickets and GitHub release tickets.
  • Create release tickets for the next train iteration, archive old release versions. Close Jira versions/GitHub milestones.
$ tracker close $trainIteration
$ tracker create releaseversions $trainIteration.next
$ tracker create releasetickets $trainIteration.next
$ tracker archive $trainIteration.previous
  • Update versions in Sagan with $ sagan update $releasetrains.
  • Announce release (Blog, Twitter) and notify downstream dependency projects as needed. Dev-tools can assist you with $ announcement $trainIteration. Make sure to remove the changelog link to Envers as this module has no changelog.
