Re: [Nix-dev] [call for] Release manager for Hydra

[Christian Theune]

Hi,

slowly … :)

As a first step I copied your draft of steps for Hydra release management to 
the wiki:

https://nixos.org/wiki/Hydra_release_management 


The next step, from my perspective, would be to try to perform “a release” and 
probably ask Eelco along the way.

A few questions are already forming:

1. @eelco: is it fine if we start moving towards performing hydra releases?

I expect to learn more about the current content of ongoing development while I 
learn a few more ropes. So the first few releases might just be brown bags. :)

2. I probably need commit access - does anyone dare to give it to me?

3. @eelco: if you don’t mind then I’d go semantic versioning, starting with a 
series of 0.1 releases.

4. Shall this effort also aim at moving the module definition into nixpkgs? 
Should we maintain both modules in parallel?

I guess for that I should make a separate issue either in the hydra or the 
nixpkgs tracker …

Cheers,
Christian

Re: [Nix-dev] [call for] Release manager for Hydra

[Christian Theune]

Hi,

ok. I can start with turning this into a checklist in the wiki. After that I’d 
like walk through those things with someone.

Things can take a while currently, as I’m on parental leave. :)

nice to hear that you want to do this.

i've added a documentation about the setup process in the wiki, it can
be found here:

I'm running several Hydra instances both public and private but I'm not
sure whether I'd bu qualified for this as well, because I tend to hate
Perl with a passion :-D

But if nobody else is stepping up, I'll do it.

Hi,

I *might* be able to. But I’m not sure I’m qualified enough. We’re using it at 
the company and rely on it, so this would be a good place to contribute back.

Anyone willing to detail what is expected regarding QA in a bit more detail?

So no one is willing to step up? This would benefit the whole community and
it's not a lot of work, mostly small housekeeping.

Re: [Nix-dev] [call for] Release manager for Hydra

[Domen Kožar]

Hey Christian,

thanks. I had following in mind.

Before the release:

- check changelog is really up to date
- mark any backwards incompatible changes
- make sure all hydra tests pass
- make sure the upgrade procedure works from previous release
- test that setting up hydra from scratch works by following installation
guide (this could be automated with NixOS test)

At release time:

- create a git (annotated) tag
- mark the release date in changelog, etc
- post a mail to nix-dev

After release:

- bump the package in nixpkgs

I'm sure I forgot something, but we should document the process and improve
it as we go.

PS: we have a similar issue opened for NixOS:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/4442
PS: Eelco might know if there is something else that needs to be taken care
of
