Hi mentors,
Since - due to collective pressure of work - we're not going to get a
0.1 release out for a while, I thought we ought to at least get some
snapshots out at least, ideally as an automated job from our Hudson CI.
I've raised a JIRA on infra so we can publish to the nexus repo [1].
This has now been actioned and closed.
Looking at the instructions [2] that were attached to the comment that
closed that JIRA, it looks somewhat like publishing a snapshot isn't
something that's fully automated; rather it's a half-way step to
publishing out a full release.
So two questions:
- I'm a bit nervous of doing the wrong thing, with respect to
licenses/notices files missing etc. Is there anything I need to do
specifically here?
- on the instructions in [2], I can't quite see why the release dryRun
is required if all I want to do is to publish a snapshot. Can I just do
a "mvn deploy:deploy" ?
Cheers
Dan
