Since we will have active development on the trunk and on the 1.0 branch, the release manager for the 1.0.1 release will need to do the work of merging desired fixes from the trunk back to the branch.I think that we should take a different approach: the people who want particular fixes that were put into trunk should be responsible for merging them into the 1.0 branch, and the release manager should be responsible for merging any work that was done only in the 1.0 branch back into trunk. Merging is a bit of a pain in svn currently, since we need to keep track of when a merge was last made. We might want to write down some procedures for the different types of merges that we expect and what not to do. For example, I think that it's bad to "merge" from trunk to 1.0 by just copying the changes from one branch to another, because then svn will detect a conflict when merging back down.
We should have a policy on merging that resolves this. Straw proposal: we never merge from any branch to the trunk. Craig

As we discussed before, we don't have a "1.0" branch becausewe have not yet discussed a "1.0" roadmap.Let's put this bit to rest. I have been assuming per email discussionsfrom last year and general best practices that we will have patch releases that contain nothing but bugfixes. Given that, the 1.0.x roadmap is by definition constrained to patches. A roadmap for 1.1 would be useful, but is totally separate from any need for a 1.0.x branch.+1The current "1.0.0" branch is *only* for changes that are to go intothe 1.0.0 release. Full stop.... and I think that this is unnecessary. I do not believe that the concepts that you discussed are at all orthogonal to general 1.0.xmaintenance. It is just a pathological special case in which there hasnot yet been a 1.0.0 release, but is otherwise identical to the requirements for a 1.0.1 release or a 1.0.2 release.It sounds like there is an *orthogonal* concern that we do not yet have a branch on which changes destined for 1.0.x should go. That's an understandable concern, but it has nothing to do with the very specific and short-lived purpose of the branch that is called "1.0.0".I think that having a branch for this specific and short-lived purpose is a Bad Idea. I see no reason why we should not just create a branch for a release as described in my last two emails, rather than creatinga branch, throwing it away, and hopefully properly re-creating a branch with the same contents.I'm perfectly fine with making a "1.0" branch on which we will commitchanges destined for 1.0.x releases. Ideally, this would have been done before we branched for "1.0.0", so that we could have branchedfrom the "1.0" branch, but I don't know if subversion actually caresabout the hierarchy of branches when it comes to merging.Indeed, I think that ideally, it should have been done *instead* of creating the "1.0.0" branch.+1So how about we do the following?1. Immediately create a branch off of trunk called "1.0". Maintenancechanges destined for 1.0.1 will be made on that branch. 2. Once the 1.0.0 release is approved and published, merge the changes from the "1.0.0" branch into the "1.0" branch and tag the released bits in the "1.0.0" branch as "1.0.0", then delete the "1.0.0" branch. 3. In the future, cut the "1.0.1" branch off of the "1.0" branch.I think that we should do the following: 1. rename the "1.0.0" branch to "1.0". Maintenance changes destined fro 1.0.1 will be made on that branch.+12. Once the 1.0.0 release is approved and published, create a 1.0.0 tag, and do not delete the 1.0 branch.+1 Just note that the terms tag and branch have no meaning in svn (I think they actually did mean something in cvs). In svn, you just name a revision of a module and svn remembers it using copy-on-write. So there's no cost to making a tag or a branch. As a group we can decide that a branch continues to have development on it and a tag is read- only.3. In the future, do not cut a "1.0.1" branch at all. Instead, when the time comes for 1.0.1 work, do it directly from the 1.0 branch (which, per my assertion above, contains only bugfixes, and so does not risk tainting the branch), and create a tag from the branch.Once we agree on the naming we need to update http:// cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/openjpa/Releasing+OpenJPA Since we will have active development on the trunk and on the 1.0 branch, the release manager for the 1.0.1 release will need to do the work of merging desired fixes from the trunk back to the branch. CraigI think that this simplifies and streamlines the process, and loses none of the current source-isolation that we have in our transient-branch strategy. -Patrick On 8/24/07, Marc Prud'hommeaux <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:I think the point of having a release branch is so that: 1.

When we're done with 1.0.0 we can create a new branch and tagwith the correct name.I agree completely. I think that making the branch and then throwing it away and then creating another branch with allegedly-identical contents sounds error prone and cumbersome. As I mentioned earlier, I think that we should change our processes to create a release branch for an x.y.0 release from wherever it is thatthat branch is being sourced (trunk, somewhere else, etc.), and then work on a release on that branch. Once the release is done, we thentag that moment in time, but keep the x.y release branch alive for work that should go into x.y.1. When the time comes for the x.y.1 release, we then do not need to create one of these release branches, since the only work that's happening in the x.y branch should bemaintenance work anyways. We just work on the release in the releasebranch, get it done, and then tag it when it's ready.I think that our current model of making these transient branches iswell-suited for a single-branch methodology. That worked well while wewere working towards a 1.0.0 release, since we never planned to havehardening releases off of 0.9.7, for example. But now that we're moving past 1.0.0, I think that it's important to have a branching strategy in place that supports patch line maintenance.

However, I strongly feelthat we need to change how we're doing our branching strategy. In my opinion, creating these throwaway branches unnecessarily complicates the process of making a maintenance branch for a given release.+1. Marc (or any other release manager) shouldn't have to merge changes back into trunk. Can someone explain to me where we are going to do 1.0.1 work in thecurrent process?Prior to our discussion in a different thread I thought that 1.0.1work would be done in the 1.0.0 branch that we're using now. Basically when we're done with 1.0.0 we would create a tag. Anything committed after that pointwould be part of 1.0.1 until we release it and create another tag.The new plan is to create a branch and call it 1.0. 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2 etc are branches off of 1.0 (I think).It seems like we should be able to accomplish that by renaming the1.0.0branch to1.0.

Once 1.0.0 is released, I will tag the currently *released* sourcecode in the 1.0.0 branch as "1.0.0", and then merge the *latest*source code in the 1.0.0 branch back into the trunk, so any additions to the 1.0.0 branch will certainly be merged back to the trunk(although they will only be released in the 1.0.0 assembly if wehappen to need to cut another release). I will document this process on the revised release instructions on the wiki once I get around to assembling them. We are playing a little fast and loose with last-minute changes in what should probably be a more solemn process, but since this is the first major release as a TLP, I think we can make a few exceptions.

It was committed into the 1.0.0 branch after the 4th re-spin and [VOTE] was posted. So, does this require yet another respin? If not, then what happens to these changes? The [VOTE] would not include these changes. So, would these changes automatically become part of the 1.0.1 snapshot release?
