Before this change stable releases updated the current beta which mean confusingly the current beta release would jump backwards from 1.54.0-beta to 1.53.3-beta say. This commit stops any tagged build making a current beta release. They will still make beta releases, they just won't update the rclone*current*.zip and version.txt files. This also means that a .0 release will not make a current beta like it does at the moment.

# Release
|
|
|
|
This file describes how to make the various kinds of releases
|
|
|
|
## Extra required software for making a release
|
|
|
|
* [github-release](https://github.com/aktau/github-release) for uploading packages
|
|
* pandoc for making the html and man pages
|
|
|
|
## Making a release
|
|
|
|
* git checkout master # see below for stable branch
|
|
* git pull
|
|
* git status - make sure everything is checked in
|
|
* Check GitHub actions build for master is Green
|
|
* make test # see integration test server or run locally
|
|
* make tag
|
|
* edit docs/content/changelog.md # make sure to remove duplicate logs from point releases
|
|
* make tidy
|
|
* make doc
|
|
* git status - to check for new man pages - git add them
|
|
* git commit -a -v -m "Version v1.XX.0"
|
|
* make retag
|
|
* git push --follow-tags origin
|
|
* # Wait for the GitHub builds to complete then...
|
|
* make fetch_binaries
|
|
* make tarball
|
|
* make vendorball
|
|
* make sign_upload
|
|
* make check_sign
|
|
* make upload
|
|
* make upload_website
|
|
* make upload_github
|
|
* make startdev # make startstable for stable branch
|
|
* # announce with forum post, twitter post, patreon post
|
|
|
|
Early in the next release cycle update the dependencies
|
|
|
|
* Review any pinned packages in go.mod and remove if possible
|
|
* make update
|
|
* git status
|
|
* git add new files
|
|
* git commit -a -v
|
|
|
|
## Making a point release
|
|
|
|
If rclone needs a point release due to some horrendous bug:
|
|
|
|
Set vars
|
|
|
|
* BASE_TAG=v1.XX # e.g. v1.52
|
|
* NEW_TAG=${BASE_TAG}.Y # e.g. v1.52.1
|
|
* echo $BASE_TAG $NEW_TAG # v1.52 v1.52.1
|
|
|
|
First make the release branch. If this is a second point release then
|
|
this will be done already.
|
|
|
|
* git branch ${BASE_TAG} ${BASE_TAG}-stable
|
|
* git co ${BASE_TAG}-stable
|
|
* make startstable
|
|
|
|
Now
|
|
|
|
* git co ${BASE_TAG}-stable
|
|
* git cherry-pick any fixes
|
|
* Do the steps as above
|
|
* make startstable
|
|
* git co master
|
|
* `#` cherry pick the changes to the changelog - check the diff to make sure it is correct
|
|
* git checkout ${BASE_TAG}-stable docs/content/changelog.md
|
|
* git commit -a -v -m "Changelog updates from Version ${NEW_TAG}"
|
|
* git push
|
|
|
|
## Making a manual build of docker
|
|
|
|
The rclone docker image should autobuild on via GitHub actions. If it doesn't
|
|
or needs to be updated then rebuild like this.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker pull golang
|
|
docker build --rm --ulimit memlock=67108864 -t rclone/rclone:1.52.0 -t rclone/rclone:1.52 -t rclone/rclone:1 -t rclone/rclone:latest .
|
|
docker push rclone/rclone:1.52.0
|
|
docker push rclone/rclone:1.52
|
|
docker push rclone/rclone:1
|
|
docker push rclone/rclone:latest
|
|
```
