[edit] How to make OpenSim releases
- Work on whatever branch makes sense for the release.
- A new major release is usually cut on a newly created branch called v.v.v-post-fixes.
- Minor releases are done over those existing v.v.v-post-fixes branches.
- In either case, don't forget to change the info in OpenSim/Framework/VersionInfo.cs.
- Login to opensimulator.org. If this is the first time you make a release:
- Copy /home/diva/releases/*.pl and /home/diva/releases/README to your own releases directory.
- Under your releases directory, make a clone of opensim into a directory called opensim-git. Your releases directory should look like this:
~/releases README *.pl opensim-git/
Once you do this setup once, you can use it for all subsequent releases
- Follow the instructions in README, adjusting the commands there for the appropriate release and branch identifiers.
- For example,
In README: ./release1.pl opensim-0.8.2.0-rc1 0.8.2-post-fixes Your command: ./release1.pl opensim-0.9.0.1 0.9.0-post-fixes
In this case you are replacing the version identifier "0.8.2.0-rc1" with the version identifier "0.9.0.1", and the branch identifier "0.8.2-post-fixes" with "0.9.0-post-fixes". Use those identifiers consistently for all the commands in README
Advice: copy the README file into an editor, make the identifier changes there, and then simply copy-paste the commands to the command line.
- That's it! At the end, you'll have the releases placed properly in the distribution directory of the web server. Make sure they have read perms for everyone.
