Making a Release

1. Update the $version_string variable in zetaback.in and zetaback_agent.in to reflect the new version number and commit this change.
2. Tag from master (the -s option signs the tag with your gpg key. Use -a instead if you don't want to sign the tag):

   $ git tag -s -m "Version x.y.z" x.y.z
   $ git push --tags origin
   

3. Prepare a tarball on a dev zone:

   $ mkdir zetaback-x.y.z
   $ cd zetaback-x.y.z
   # You should use gtar here, otherwise an extraneous pax_global_header file may be created 
   $ git archive --remote=git@labs.omniti.com:zetaback.git x.y.z | gtar xvf - 
   $ /opt/csw/bin/autoconf
   $ rm -rf autom4te.cache/
   $ cd ..
   $ tar cf ~/zetaback-x.y.z.tar zetaback-x.y.z
   $ gzip ~/zetaback-x.y.z.tar
   

4. Copy the tarball to mirrors.omniti.com: scp zetaback-x.y.z.tar.gz warehouse:/data/mirrors/mirrors.omniti.com/zetaback
5. Update the wiki front page to link to the new tarball.
6. Update /www/website/trunk/htdocs/announcements.rdf on the labs webserver with a new entry announcing the release. Include any relevant highlights and/or bugfixes. Commit the updated file.
