Matthias Pohl created FLINK-34486: ------------------------------------- Summary: Add documentation on how to add the shared utils as a submodule to the connector repo Key: FLINK-34486 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-34486 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Connectors / Common Affects Versions: connector-parent-1.1.0 Reporter: Matthias Pohl
[apache/flink-connector-shared-utils:README.md|https://github.com/apache/flink-connector-shared-utils/blob/release_utils/README.md] doesn't state how a the shared utils shall be added as a submodule to a connector repository. But this is expected from within [connector release documentation|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/Creating+a+flink-connector+release#Creatingaflinkconnectorrelease-Buildareleasecandidate]: {quote} The following sections assume that the release_utils branch from flink-connector-shared-utils is mounted as a git submodule under tools/releasing/shared, you can update the submodule by running git submodule update --remote (or git submodule update --init --recursive if the submodule wasn't initialized, yet) to use latest release utils, you need to mount the flink-connector-shared-utils as a submodule under the tools/releasing/shared if it hasn't been mounted in the connector repository. See the README for details. {quote} Let's update the README accordingly and add a link to {{README}} in the connector release documentation -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
