Release Workflow

Authors

Update the .mailmap and AUTHORS files:

$ git log --use-mailmap | grep ^Author: | cut -f2- -d' ' | sort | uniq > AUTHORS

Version

Update the current version (and db schema, if required)

$ ./update-version 1.13.0
$ ./update-version-schema 1.13.0

Docs

Update the Changelog and generate the docs

$ ./configure; make create-docs

Changelog

Manually fetch the issue list from the roadmap.

Git Tag

Commit these changes to the "master" branch:

$ git commit -v -a -m "Release version <VERSION>"

For minor releases: Cherry-pick this commit into the "support" branch.

Create a signed tag (tags/v) on the "master" branch (for major releases) or the "support" branch (for minor releases).

MF:

$ git tag -u D14A1F16 -m "Version <VERSION>" v<VERSION>

Push the tag.

$ git push --tags

For major releases: Create a new "support" branch:

$ git checkout master
$ git checkout -b support/1.13
$ git push -u origin support/1.13

For minor releases: Push the support branch and cherry-pick the release commit into master:

$ git push -u origin support/1.13
$ git checkout master
$ git cherry-pick support/1.13
$ git push origin master

Release Tarball

Use "git archive" to build the release tarball:

$ VERSION=1.13.3
$ git archive --format=tar --prefix=icinga-$VERSION/ tags/v$VERSION | gzip >icinga-$VERSION.tar.gz
$ md5sum icinga-$VERSION.tar.gz > icinga-$VERSION.tar.gz.md5

Finally you should verify that the tarball only contains the files it should contain:

$ VERSION=1.13.3
$ tar ztf icinga-$VERSION.tar.gz | less

External Dependencies

Build Server

Linux

  • Build the newly created git tag for Debian/RHEL/SuSE.
  • Start a new docker container and install/run icinga

Example for CentOS7:

$ sudo docker run -ti centos:latest bash

# yum -y install http://packages.icinga.org/epel/7/release/noarch/icinga-rpm-release-7-1.el7.centos.noarch.rpm
# yum -y install icinga icinga-gui
# icinga -v /etc/icinga/icinga.cfg

Github Release

Create a new release from the newly created git tag. https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-core/releases

Upload the release tarball amd md5 file.

Online Documentation

Ssh into the web box, become docgen user and run the update script (there's a daily cronjob for that).

Announcement

Building Release Tarballs

In order to build a release tarball you should first check out the Git repository in a new directory. If you're using an existing check-out you should make sure that there are no local modifications:

$ git status

Here's a short check-list for releases:

  • Update the .mailmap and AUTHORS files $ git log --use-mailmap | grep ^Author: | cut -f2- -d' ' | sort | uniq > AUTHORS
  • Bump the version in icinga.spec.
  • Update the current version (and db schema, if required) $ ./update-version 1.13.0 $ ./update-version-schema 1.13.0
  • Update the Changelog and generate the docs $ ./configure; make create-docs
  • Commit these changes to the "support/1.13" branch and create a signed tag (tags/v). $ git commit -v -a -m "Release version " $ git tag -u D14A1F16 -m "Version " v $ git push --tags
  • Merge the "support/1.13" branch into the "master" branch (using --ff-only). $ git checkout master $ git merge --ff-only support/1.13 $ git push origin master
