How to do a release for Fail2Ban
================================================================================
Preparation
===========
* Check distribution patches and see if they can be included
* https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/fail2ban/sources
* http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/net-analyzer/fail2ban/
* http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/security/py-fail2ban/
* https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=fail2ban&project=openSUSE%3AFactory
* http://sophie.zarb.org/sources/fail2ban (Mageia)
* https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/security/fail2ban
* Check distribution outstanding bugs
* https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/issues?sort=updated&state=open
* http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=unstable;package=fail2ban
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fail2ban
* http://bugs.sabayon.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=net-analyzer%2Ffail2ban
* https://bugs.archlinux.org/?project=5&cat%5B%5D=33&string=fail2ban
* https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc=fail2ban&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=CONFIRMED&bug_status=IN_PROGRESS&short_desc_type=allwords
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&component=fail2ban&classification=Red%20Hat&classification=Fedora
* http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi?text=fail2ban
* https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=fail2ban
* https://build.opensuse.org/package/requests/openSUSE:Factory/fail2ban
* Make sure the tests pass::
./fail2ban-testcases-all
* Ensure the version is correct in:
* ./fail2ban/version.py
* top of ChangeLog
* README.md
* Ensure the MANIFEST is complete
ad-hoc bash script to run in a clean clone:
find -type f | grep -v -e '\.git' -e '/doc/' -e '\.travis' -e MANIFEST | sed -e 's,^\./,,g' | while read f; do grep -ne "^$f\$" MANIFEST >/dev/null || echo "$f" ; done
or an alternative for comparison with previous release
git diff 0.9.6 | grep -B2 'index 0000000..' | grep -B1 'new file mode' | sed -n -e '/^diff /s,.* b/,,gp' >> MANIFEST
sort MANIFEST | uniq | sponge MANIFEST
* Run::
python setup.py sdist
* Look for errors like::
'testcases/files/logs/mysqld.log' not a regular file -- skipping
* Which indicates that testcases/files/logs/mysqld.log has been moved or is a directory::
tar -C /tmp -jxf dist/fail2ban-0.9.6.tar.bz2
* clean up current directory::
diff -rul --exclude \*.pyc . /tmp/fail2ban-0.9.6/
* Only differences should be files that you don't want distributed.
* Ensure the tests work from the tarball::
cd /tmp/fail2ban-0.9.6/ && bin/fail2ban-testcases
* Add/finalize the corresponding entry in the ChangeLog
* To generate a list of committers use e.g.::
git shortlog -sn 0.9.6.. | sed -e 's,^[ 0-9\t]*,,g' | tr '\n' '\|' | sed -e 's:|:, :g'
* Ensure the top of the ChangeLog has the right version and current date.
* Ensure the top entry of the ChangeLog has the right version and current date.
* Update man pages::
(cd man ; ./generate-man )
git commit -m 'DOC/ENH: update man pages for release' man/*
* Cleanout TODO file with the finished stuff
* Prepare source and rpm binary distributions::
python setup.py sdist
* Broken for now: python setup.py bdist_rpm
* Broken for now: python setup.py upload
* Tag the release by using a signed (and annotated) tag. Cut/paste
release ChangeLog entry as tag annotation::
git tag -s 0.9.6
