Release 0.25.0rc1

Information about the release

Relevant series

default

Main reason driving the release

Jump to GitLab 14.2

Task list

  • py-heptapod: no change since Heptapod 0.24.1

  • HGitaly: if there are changes to include in the relevant branch (default, stable or oldstable).

    Don't forget changesets from stabler branches.

    • stable branch is already fully merged
    • set the version in hgitaly/VERSION, commit
    • run $python setup.py sdist and push to PyPI with twine
    • tag accordingly to the pushed version (hg tag 1.2.3)
    • set a new development version in hgitaly/VERSION, such as 1.2.4dev0 (no dot for proper interpretation by the Rails app); commit
    • push and publish these three changesets
  • Heptapod Shell: same version as in Heptapod 0.24.1

  • Omnibus

    • stable branch is already fully merged
    • 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 is heptapod, heptapod-stable or heptapod-oldstable.

    • merge stabler development branches into the development branch (pipelines not really needed).
    • start a topic from the head of the release branch (e.g, heptapod-0-20)
    • merge the development branch into the release branch 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
    • update HEPTAPOD_SHELL_VERSION if needed
    • update the requirements files in the python subdirectory if needed
    • commit those changes and push the topic – if there is an upstream GitLab version change, this creates a pipeline with the gitlab-prebuilds job. Wait for its successful completion (expected time 1h).
    • topic publication: create a Merge Request for the topic, select auto-merge on success (expected time 0.5h)
    • once the topic is published by CI, pull
    • 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:
      • double check that the heptapod-tests CI jobs did run for the image built in the Omnibus pipeline.
      • retrieve the image built by the Omnibus pipeline from registry.h.n, retag it as octobus/heptapod:x.y.z and octobus/heptapod:latest
      • Docker push for those two image tags.

Finalisations

  • announce the release at least on Twitter and Mastodon
  • publish the changesets in all repositories made during the process (don't forget Omnibus)
  • no milestone to close and create for RC releases
