Does anyone has any input on the same?

I think it is *critical* that we can deliver tagged artifacts (whether maven, 
docker *and code*) for each of our release. Most importantly, for Beijing 
coming in a few weeks.

We had a discussion last week on the #lf-releng channel, and it seems the issue 
is identified. See raw discussion snippet bellow

        tykeal  hmm.... I think I may know what the problem here is. The ONAP 
releases are done using the maven version plugin. The release jobs take the 
current version that gets checked out and then for the release job the version 
plugin is run to drop the SNAPSHOT name and then produce the artifacts
        zxiiro  adetalhouet_: looks like you got all the points to me.
        tykeal  as such gerrit doesn't have any of the released versions 
actually stored but the target tag points to the version that was checked out 
to produce the release artifacts
        zxiiro  tykeal: maven version plugin should take care of removing the 
snapshot AND git tagging though if I recall.
        tykeal  zxiiro: it's not being used to do the tagging
        zxiiro  :/
        zxiiro  looks like they are missing the step we do in ODL where we 
produce git.bundles and store it in the log server for tagging at a later date.
        tykeal  ONAP release process at present is basically the following:
        tykeal  daily jobs produce RC builds
        tykeal  a request is made to release the builds staging repo produced 
by job XYZ
        tykeal  RE looks up the staging repo from the job output
        tykeal  signs the artifacts and releases them
        tykeal  looks up the git sha that was checked out by the job and tags it
        zxiiro  ya that's not right. they need to get the git.bundle and 
Jenkins should be producing it by creating a commit on the pom.xmls that it 
modified before the build.
        tykeal  zxiiro: yes, they're missing that step because ONAP isn't using 
the release jobs that ODL created because global-jjb didn't exist when they 
implemented and they didn't want to copy the work that ODL had already done
        zxiiro  even if we drop the SNAPSHOTS and tag from the same base 
commit, that produces a new sha so while it looks the same it is not identical. 
Which is why it's so important to save the git.bundles.

        tykeal  @zxiiro: I'm not saying that they're producing an updated 
commit, they're are literally tagging the commit that Jenkins checked out, not 
one with a modified pom
