Udi Meiri commented on BEAM-6595:
---------------------------------
build_release_candidate.sh is broken due to
https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/7735.
We have been releasing -SNAPSHOT versions for a while due to this.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-9079
> build_release_candidate.sh should not push to apache org on github

> Key: BEAM-6595
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-6595
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build-system
> Reporter: Kenneth Knowles
> Assignee: Kenneth Knowles
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Currently, the build_release_candidate.sh does many things beyond the build
> - Edits files in place to update the version from SNAPSHOT to non-SNAPSHOT
> - Makes a local commit
> - Pushes commits to release branch
> - Reverts on failure, pushes those to release branch
> Instead, the release manager should determine what gets pushed. It is less
> fragile of a process and avoids cruft getting pushed and churning the branch.
> The only thing the plugin is really good for is flipping SNAPSHOT away and
> back. And it isn't even that great because that's Java only and other
> languages are at non-SNAPSHOT anyhow.
