Andrew Stitcher commented on PROTON-790: ---------------------------------------- In the current tree {code}git tag 0.9-alpha-1 origin/0.9-alpha-1{code} will create the kind of tag I'm talking about. It will need to be pushed after creating in the local repository too. {code}git push origin 0.9-alpha-1{code} > Use git tag for release (rather than branch) > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: PROTON-790 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-790 > Project: Qpid Proton > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: release > Affects Versions: 0.9 > Reporter: Andrew Stitcher > Assignee: Rafael H. Schloming > Priority: Minor > > I think it would make sense to use git tags to indicate the versions of > releases including alphas and betas. > So instead of having branch with a single change on it we should use a tag > to indicate a release. This would also allow the branching structure and the > releases to be independent. > As an example the recent 0.9-alpha-1 could be a tag on a 0.9-release branch. > Or it could just be a tag on a one change branch (to change the version). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
