+
+# Introduction
+
+Apache XTable, currently an incubating project at the Apache Software 
Foundation (ASF), is a cross-table converter for table formats that facilitates 
omni-directional interoperability across data processing systems and query 
engines. 
+This guide outlines the steps for releasing Apache XTable versions, following 
the ASF policies and incorporating practices from other successful ASF projects.
+
+# Legal Reminders
+
+Releasing software under the ASF banner requires adherence to the [ASF Release 
Policy](https://infra.apache.org/release-publishing.html) and [Incubator 
Release 
Guidelines](https://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#best-practice).
 
+Please ensure all releases comply with these guidelines, focusing on proper 
licensing, source code distribution, and community approval.
+
+# Overview
+
+The release process consists of several steps:
+
+1. Decide to release
+2. Prepare for the release
+3. Build a release candidate
+4. Vote on the release candidate
+5. During vote process, run validation tests
+6. If necessary, fix any issues and go back to step 3.
+7. Finalize the release
+8. Promote the release
+
+# Decide to release
+
+Anybody can propose a release on the dev@ mailing list, giving a solid 
argument and nominating a committer as the
+Release Manager (including themselves). There’s no formal process, no vote 
requirements, and no timing requirements. Any
+objections should be resolved by consensus before starting the release.
+
+# Prepare for the release
+
+_Before your first release, you should perform one-time configuration steps. 
This will set up your security keys for
+signing the release and access to various release repositories._
+
+To prepare for each release, you should audit the project status in the Github 
issue tracker, and do the necessary
+bookkeeping. Finally, you should create a release branch from which individual 
release candidates will be built.
+
+**NOTE**: If you are
+using [GitHub two-factor 
authentication](https://help.github.com/articles/securing-your-account-with-two-factor-authentication-2fa/)
+and haven’t configure HTTPS access, please
+follow [the 
guide](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line/)
 to configure
+command line access.
+
+## One-time Setup Instructions
+
+You need to have a GPG key to sign the release artifacts. Please be aware of 
the
+ASF-wide [release signing 
guidelines](https://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html). If you don’t have 
a GPG key
+associated with your Apache account, please follow the instructions below.
+
+### Create GPG public key with apache email
+
+- Install gpg using [https://gpgtools.org/](https://gpgtools.org/).
+- Create gpg key with your apache emailId. 
+- Export the KeyId into an environment variable KEY_ID
+
+```shell
+LOCAL_SVN_DIR=local_svn_dir
+mkdir -p ~/$LOCAL_SVN_DIR && cd $LOCAL_SVN_DIR
+svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/xtable && cd 
xtable
[email protected]
+(gpg --list-sigs ${email} && gpg --armor --export ${name}) >> KEYS
+svn --username=${apache_username} --password=${passowrd} commit -m "Add xtable 
directory and keys"
+```
+
+### Submit your GPG public key into MIT PGP Public Key Server
+
+In order to make yourself have the right permission to stage java artifacts in 
Apache Nexus staging repository, please
+submit your GPG public key into [MIT PGP Public Key 
Server](http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/).
+
+Also send public key to ubuntu server via
+
+```shell
+gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-keys ${KEY_ID} # send public 
key to ubuntu server
+gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys ${KEY_ID} # verify
+```
+
+would also refer
+to 
[stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19462617/no-public-key-key-with-id-xxxxx-was-not-able-to-be-located-oss-sonatype-org)
+
+### Access to Apache Nexus repository
+
+Configure access to the Apache Nexus repository, which enables final 
deployment of releases to the Maven Central
+Repository.
+
+1. You log in with your Apache account.
+2. Confirm you have appropriate access by finding org.apache.xtable under 
Staging Profiles.
+3. Navigate to your Profile (top right dropdown menu of the page).
+4. Choose User Token from the dropdown, then click Access User Token. Copy a 
snippet of the Maven XML configuration
+   block.
+5. Insert this snippet twice into your global Maven settings.xml file, 
typically ${HOME}/.m2/settings.xml. The end
+   result should look like this, where TOKEN_NAME and TOKEN_PASSWORD are your 
secret tokens:
+
+```xml
+<settings>
+   <servers>
+     <server>
+       <id>apache.releases.https</id>
+       <username>TOKEN_NAME</username>
+       <password>TOKEN_PASSWORD</password>
+     </server>
+     <server>
+       <id>apache.snapshots.https</id>
+       <username>TOKEN_NAME</username>
+       <password>TOKEN_PASSWORD</password>
+     </server>
+   </servers>
+ </settings>
+```
+
+
+## Create a release branch in apache/incubator-xtable repository
+
+**Skip this step if it is a bug fix release. But do set the env variables.**
+
+Release candidates are built from a release branch. As a final step in 
preparation for the release, you should create the release branch, push it to 
the Apache code repository, and update version information on the original 
branch.
+
+Export Some Environment variables in the terminal where you are running the 
release scripts
+
+- export RELEASE_VERSION=<RELEASE_VERSION_TO_BE_PUBLISHED>
+- export NEXT_VERSION=<NEW_VERSION_IN_MASTER>
+- export RELEASE_BRANCH=release-<RELEASE_VERSION_TO_BE_PUBLISHED>
+- export RC_NUM=<release_candidate_num_starting_from_1>
+
+Use cut_release_branch.sh to cut a release branch
+
+- Script: 
[cut_release_branch.sh](https://github.com/apache/incubator-xtable/blob/master/scripts/release/cut_release_branch.sh)
+
+Usage
+
+```shell
+# Cut a release branch
+./release/scripts/cut_release_branch.sh \
+--release=${RELEASE_VERSION} \
+--next_release=${NEXT_VERSION} \
+--rc_num=${RC_NUM}
+# Show help page
+./incubator-xtable/release/scripts/cut_release_branch.sh -h
+```
+
+## Verify that a Release Build Works
+
+Run "mvn -Prelease clean install" to ensure that the build processes are in 
good shape. // You need to execute this command once you have the release 
branch in apache/incubator-xtable
+
+```shell
+mvn -Prelease clean install
+```
+
+# Build a release candidate
+
+The core of the release process is the build-vote-fix cycle. Each cycle 
produces one release candidate. The Release Manager repeats this cycle until 
the community approves one release candidate, which is then finalized.
+
+Set up a few environment variables to simplify Maven commands that follow. 
This identifies the release candidate being built. Start with RC_NUM equal to 1 
and increment it for each candidate.
+
+1. git checkout ${RELEASE_BRANCH}
+2. Run mvn version to set the proper rc number in all artifacts
+    1. mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+3. Run Unit tests  and ensure they succeed
+    1. mvn test
+4. Run Integration Tests and ensure they succeed
+    1. mvn verify
+5. Commit and push this change to RELEASE branch
+    1. git commit -am "Bumping release candidate number ${RC_NUM}"
+       > There will be some backup files created which needs to be removed.
+       >
+       > You could do "git clean -fd" before doing the commit.
+    2. git push origin ${RELEASE_BRANCH}
+       > If you already have a remote tag with same name as your branch, you 
can try below command.
+       >
+       > git push origin refs/heads/${RELEASE_BRANCH}
+       >
+       > "refs/heads/" refers to a branch.
+       >
+       > "refs/tags/" refers to tag.
+6. Generate Source Release: This will create the tarball under 
incubator-xtable/src_release directory
+    1. git checkout ${RELEASE_BRANCH}
+    2. cd release && ./scripts/create_source_release.sh
+       > If you have multiple gpg keys(gpg --list-keys), then the signing 
command will take in the first key most likely.
+       > You will release this when it asks for a passphrase in a pop up.
+       > When asked for passphrase, ensure the intended key is the one asked 
for.
+       >
+       > Command used in script:
+       >
+       > gpg --armor --detach-sig 
${RELEASE_DIR}/incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}.src.tgz
+       >
+       > To use a specific key: update as follows: // replace FINGERPRINT
+       >
+       > gpg --local-user [FINGERPRINT] --armor --detach-sig 
${RELEASE_DIR}/incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}.src.tgz
+    3. Verify Source release is signed and buildable
+        1. cd ../src_release
+        2. gpg --verify 
incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}.src.tgz.asc 
incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}.src.tgz
+        3. tar -zxvf incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}.src.tgz 
&& cd incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM} && mvn clean package 
-DskipTests -Pintegration-tests
+        4. If they pass, delete the repository we got from the tar-ball
+            - cd ../ && rm -rf incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+
+7. Create tag
+    1. git tag -s release-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM} -m 
"${RELEASE_VERSION}".
+       > If you run into some issues, and if want to re-run the same candidate 
again from start, ensure you delete existing tags before retrying again.
+       >
+       > // to remove local
+       >
+       > git tag -d release-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+       >
+       > // to remove remote
+       >
+       > git push --delete origin release-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+    2. if apache repo is origin.
+       > git push origin release-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+       >
+       > If a branch with the same name already exists in origin, this command 
might fail as below.
+       >
+       > error: src refspec release-0.5.3 matches more than one
+       >
+       > error: failed to push some refs to 
'https://github.com/apache/incubator-xtable.git'
+       >
+       > In such a case, try below command
+       >
+       > git push origin refs/tags/release-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+
+8. [Stage source 
releases](https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#stage) on 
[dist.apache.org](http://dist.apache.org/)
+    1. If you have not already, check out the xtable section of the dev 
repository on [dist.apache.org](http://dist.apache.org/) via Subversion. In a 
fresh directory
+    2. if you would not checkout, please try svn checkout 
[https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/xtable](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/xtable)
 again.
+        1. svn checkout 
[https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/xtable](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/xtable)
 --depth=immediates
+    3. Make a directory for the new release:
+        1. mkdir xtable/incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+    4. Copy incubator-xtable source distributions, hashes, and GPG signature:
+        1. mv <incubator-xtable-dir>/src_release/* 
xtable/incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+    5. Add and commit all the files.
+        1. cd xtable
+        2. svn add incubator-xtable-${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM}
+        3. svn commit
+    6. Verify that files are 
[present](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/xtable)
+    7. Run Verification Script to ensure the source release is sane
+        1. For RC: cd release && ./scripts/validate_staged_release.sh 
--release=${RELEASE_VERSION} --rc_num=${RC_NUM} --verbose
+        2. For finalized release in dev: cd scripts && 
./scripts/validate_staged_release.sh --release=${RELEASE_VERSION}  --verbose
+
+9. Deploy maven artifacts and verify
+    1. This will deploy jar artifacts to the Apache Nexus Repository, which is 
the staging area for deploying jars to Maven Central.
+    2. Review all staged artifacts (https://repository.apache.org/). They 
should contain all relevant parts for each module, including pom.xml, jar, test 
jar, source, test source, javadoc, etc. Carefully review any new artifacts.
+    3. git checkout ${RELEASE_BRANCH}
+    4. mvn deploy -Prelease -DskipTests  -DdeployArtifacts=true
+        1. when prompted for the passphrase, if you have multiple gpg keys in 
your keyring, make sure that you enter the right passphase corresponding to the 
same key (FINGERPRINT) as used while generating source release in step f.ii.
+           > If the prompt is not for the same key (by default the 
maven-gpg-plugin will pick up the first key in your keyring so that could be 
different), then add the following option to your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf file
+        2. make sure your IP is not changing while uploading, otherwise it 
creates a different staging repo
+        3. Use a VPN if you can't prevent your IP from switching
+    5. Review all staged artifacts by logging into Apache Nexus and clicking 
on "Staging Repositories" link on left pane. Then find a "open" entry for 
apachextable
+    6. Once you have ensured everything is good and validation of step 7 
succeeds, you can close the staging repo. Until you close, you can re-run 
deploying to staging multiple times. But once closed, it will create a new 
staging repo. So ensure you close this, so that the next RC (if need be) is on 
a new repo. So, once everything is good, close the staging repository on Apache 
Nexus. When prompted for a description, enter
+       > Apache incubator-xtable, version `${RELEASE_VERSION}`, release 
candidate `${RC_NUM}`.
+    7. After closing, run the script to validate the staged bundles again:
+       ```shell
+       ./scripts/release/validate_staged_bundles.sh 
orgapachextable-<stage_repo_number> ${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM} 2>&1 | tee 
-a /tmp/validate_staged_bundles_output.txt
+       ```
+
+## Checklist to proceed to the next step
+
+1. Maven artifacts deployed to the staging repository of repository.apache.org
+2. Source distribution deployed to the dev repository of dist.apache.org and 
validated
+
+# Vote on the release candidate
+
+Once you have built and individually reviewed the release candidate, please 
share it for the community-wide(dev@incubator-xtable ) review. Please review 
foundation-wide voting guidelines for more information.
+
+Start the review-and-vote thread on the dev@ mailing list. Here’s an email 
template; please adjust as you see fit.

+
+## Checklist to proceed to the finalization step
+
+Community votes to release the proposed candidate, with at least three 
approving PMC votes
+
+# Fix any issues
+
+Any issues identified during the community review and vote should be fixed in 
this step.
+
+Code changes should be proposed as standard pull requests to the master branch 
and reviewed using the normal contributing process. Then, relevant changes 
should be cherry-picked into the release branch. The cherry-pick commits should 
then be proposed as the pull requests against the release branch, again 
reviewed and merged using the normal contributing process.
+
+Once all issues have been resolved, you should go back and build a new release 
candidate with these changes.
+
+## Checklist to proceed to the next step
+
+Issues identified during vote have been resolved, with fixes committed to the 
release branch.
+
+# Finalize the release
+
+Once the release candidate has been reviewed and approved by the community, 
the release should be finalized. This involves the final deployment of the 
release candidate to the release repositories, merging of the website changes, 
etc.
+
+## Current follow the below steps to finalize the release.
+
+1. Drop all RC orgapachextable-XXX in [Apache Nexus Staging 
Repositories](https://repository.apache.org/#stagingRepositories).
+2. change the version from ${RELEASE_VERSION}-rc${RC_NUM} to 
${RELEASE_VERSION} against release branch, use command `mvn versions:set 
-DnewVersion=${RELEASE_VERSION}`, e.g. change 0.5.1-rc1 to 0.5.1.
+3. Commit and push the version change to release branch.
+    1. git commit -am "[MINOR] Update release version to reflect published 
version  ${RELEASE_VERSION}"
+    2. git push origin release-${RELEASE_VERSION}
+4. Repeat the steps from **_Generate Source Release (f) to Stage source 
releases on [dist.apache.org](http://dist.apache.org/) (i)_**. Including 
staging jars with the release version and uploading source release.
+   > **Note that make sure remove the -rc${RC_NUM} suffix when repeat the 
above steps. and please also verify the steps.  Ensure git tag is also done 
without -rc${RC_NUM}**
+5. One more step is to [deploy source code to 
release](https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#upload-ci) dist. 
[https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/xtable](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/xtable).
+   Only PMC will have access to this repo. So, if you are not a PMC, do get 
help from somone who is.
+    1. svn checkout 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/xtable --depth=immediates, 
if you would not checkout, please try svn checkout 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/xtable again.
+    2. Make a directory for the new release:
+       ```shell
+       mkdir incubator-xtable/${RELEASE_VERSION}
+       ```
+    3. Copy incubator-xtable source distributions, hashes, and GPG signature:
+       ```shell
+       mv <incubator-xtable-dir>/src_release/* 
incubator-xtable/${RELEASE_VERSION}
+       ```
+    4. Add and commit all the files.
+       ```shell
+       cd incubator-xtable
+       svn add ${RELEASE_VERSION}
+       svn commit
+       ```
+    5. Verify that files are 
[present](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/xtable)
+6. Use the Apache Nexus repository to release the staged binary artifacts to 
the Maven Central repository. In the Staging Repositories section, find the 
relevant release candidate orgapachextable-XXX entry and click `Release`.
+   > Note: make sure and check you click `Release` repo, it cannot be 
withdrawn.
+7. Drop all other release candidates that are not being released. It can take 
up to 24 hours for the new release to show up in [Maven Central 
repository](https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:org.apache.xtable).
+8. In Jira, go to Releases → <Release Version> and ensure that all Jiras for 
the release are 'Closed' state, if not transition all 'Resolved' jiras to 
'Closed'.
+   > Note: we should close jira and choose 'resolution = Fixed' rather than 
resolve jira.
+9. Finalize the Release in Jira by providing the release date.
+10. Update [DOAP]
+11. Create a new Github release, off the release version tag, you pushed before
+
+
+# Promote the release
+
+Once the release has been finalized, the last step of the process is to 
promote the release within the project and beyond. Please wait for 1h after 
finalizing the release in accordance with the [ASF release
