Thank you, Gary Gregory, Release Manager (using key 86fdc7e2a11262cb) The following is intended as a helper and refresher for reviewers. Validating a release candidate ============================== These guidelines are NOT complete. Requirements: Git, Java, and Maven. You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows. 1a) Download and decompress the source archive from: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/exec/1.5.0-RC1/source 1b) Check out the RC tag from git (optional) This is optional, as a reviewer must check source distributions as a minimum. git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-exec.git --branch commons-exec-1.5.0-RC1 commons-exec-1.5.0-RC1 cd commons-exec-1.5.0-RC1 2) Checking the build All components should include a default Maven goal, such that you can run 'mvn' from the command line by itself. 2) Check Apache licenses This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page which you then must check. This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can check it with: mvn apache-rat:check 3) Check binary compatibility This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page which you then must check. This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can check it with: mvn verify -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp 4) Build the package This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can check it with: mvn -V clean package You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE reply. To gather OS information from a command line: Windows: ver Linux: uname -a 4b) Check reproducibility To check that a build is reproducible, run: mvn clean verify artifact:compare -DskipTests -Dreference.repo= https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/staging/ '-Dbuildinfo.ignore=*/*.spdx.json' Note that this excludes SPDX files from the check. 5) Build the site for a single module project Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of packaged. mvn site Check the site reports in: - Windows: target\site\index.html - Linux: target/site/index.html -the end-
