Doing a File Release¶

These are the steps to doing a file release for Jamoma

First, you'll have to tag your release on git :

1. get everything in the correct state (checkout the proper branches, make sure they at the right revisions, etc.)
2. in the main repository commit the submodules -- that way they are locked in at the correct revision
3. tag the main repository -- e.g. "git tag 0.5.0.rc11"
4. optionally, you may tag the submodules too. this is a convenience for posterities sake.
5. push the main repository with "git push", then push the tags for the main repository "git push origin --tags"

For Mac :

1. cheking out the tagged version :
   • cd <root Jamoma folder>
   • git pull
   • git checkout <tag> (e.g. 0.5.0.rc11)
     This will bring you on "no branch"
   • git submodule update
2. <run build script> :
   • cd Tools
   • ./build.rb Deployment clean
3. <run installer script>
   • cd ../installertools
   • ./installer.rb
     note : the installer is built in Jamoma/Installer folder.
4. run the test script
5. do a couple of checks (like testing the cueScript help patcher)
6. Upload to the jamoma.org site (in the downloads folder).
7. Test the download
8. Add a link to the installer on the download page of Jamoma.org
9. Add a news item to redmine
