Information about the release
Relevant series
stable
Main reason driving the release
This is a final minor version, it needs to be released at some point :-)
Note: the merge of the development branch has already been made and validated by CI, including HGitaly version change (thus, properly released). Still Using this procedure in order not to forget other checks.
Task list
-
Omnibus
-
merge stabler branches into the relevant branch if needed -
if new upstream GitLab version, merge the corresponding CE tag, typically x+y+z+ce.0
into the relevant branch. Leave as draft but not in a topic, commit and push
-
-
Rails application
The release branch is e.g.,
heptapod-0-20
while the development branch isheptapod
,heptapod-stable
orheptapod-oldstable
.-
merge stabler development branches into the development branch (pipelines not really needed). -
Merge new upstream GitLab version if needed. Commit. -
fill in HEPTAPOD_CHANGELOG Be sure to include the changes related to the stabler branches. If needed copy them from the stabler release branches, as these won't get merged. -
set HEPTAPOD_VERSION -
commit the changes in version files -
create a tag on the release branch head without a topic (run hg topic --clear if needed
before) -
push the tag, don't publish it yet. The tag pipeline will push the source tarball to download.h.n and push a commit to reference it and a tag in Omnibus. The resulting pipeline in Omnibus will build the package for Ubuntu, then the Docker image, then trigger a full run of the functional tests on it, as a pipeline on heptapod-tests. - Docker image:
-
take note of the Docker image ID that the heptapod-tests CI jobs ran for -
retrieve the image built in the Omnibus pipeline, checking the Mercurial tag and the Docker image ID, and push it to Docker Hub, using the utility in heptapod/heptapod-docker>. Example: ``` ~/heptapod/docker $ ./registry-pull-heptapod-push-docker \ --push \ --verify-hg-tag heptapod-0.32.1-1 \ --expected-image-id sha256:0e976fdfa6733d4298025cd0b98ae36384863c8dd8d60ac7f9f979bb5d05b259 ```
-
retag the image as as octobus/heptapod:x.y.z
andoctobus/heptapod:latest
oroctobus/heptapod:x-y-latest
, and push the tags to Docker Hub, using thepush-release
script from heptapod/heptapod-docker>.
