StarlingX/Release Process
Describe the steps in creating a StarlingX Release
Release Activity
Milestone
- Finalize any outstanding changes to master stx-manifest/default.xml, particularly for the starlingx and stx-staging remotes as those are used to create the list of repos to branch and tag.
- Create the branches and tag them by running stx-tools/release/branch-stx.sh. Set SERIES to the proper value if the current year/month is not correct:
SERIES=2018.07 stx-tools/release/branch-stx.sh
- Create the branch manifest in stx-manifest/default.xml
- Review and approve the .gitreview updates in the new branch
