Cheat Sheet
The following table gives an overview of the workflow and procedures involving development and delivery of our software.

resources

procedures
|
Source
|
- the software is maintained in a Subversion repository.
- Access to SVN is configured in the central LDAP database.
- The software packages follow the GNU coding guidelines, and use automake/autoconf.
|
- Before tagging, go through the mandatory checklist:
- Update configure.ac with the right version
- make distcheck
- Update the files BUGS, INSTALL, NEWS, README
- svn update ; svn log -v > ChangeLog
- commit to SVN
- Prior to preparing a release, the software should be tagged.
|
Release
|
When the software is ready to be released it is rolled into a source distribution tarball. The 'make dist' target makes sure this
is a clean tarball without any files that are strictly for development and not for distribution.
- Run bootstrap on fc17.testbed, to use the newest possible automake/autoconf
- Run 'make dist' on mwsecbuild.testbed; this machine has all the required dependencies
|
- make a tarball
- record the sha1 and sha256 checksums
- upload to software.nikhef.nl
- write a signed e-mail to grid-mw-security@nikhef.nl with the name of the tarball and the checksums
