Summary: Improve release scripts to automate missing steps
Key: HADOOP-14162
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14162
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Reporter: Elek, Marton
Assignee: Elek, Marton
According to the conversation on the dev mailing list one pain point of the
release making is that even with the latest create-release script a lot of
steps are not automated.
This Jira is about creating a script which guides the release manager throw the
proces:
Goals:
* It would work even without the apache infrastructure: with custom
configuration (forked repositories/alternative nexus), it would be possible to
test the scripts even by a non-commiter.
* every step which could be automated should be scripted (create git
branches, build,...). if something could be not automated there an explanation
could be printed out, and wait for confirmation
* Before dangerous steps (eg. bulk jira update) we can ask for confirmation
and explain the
* The run should be idempontent (and there should be an option to continue
the release from any steps).
