Hi Rob.
The generated release notes do not reflect the contents
of the current version of "changes.xml":
https://git1-us-west.apache.org/repos/asf?p=commons-rng.git;a=commitdiff;h=aa0f3b4909b0cd3a22c4ba8f04646ef264cee9d9
Not a blocker but a pity because the advertized release date
will be quite off and the 1.1 branch is slightly inconsistent.
I'd suspect that the release plugin is missing the command
to run the auto-generation...
One thing which I found handy in "doc/release/release.howto.txt"
(also in order to minimize the post-release adjustments) was:
-----
(4)
If there have been changes committed in the master branch or the
version
branch since the creation of the release branch, there are two
cases:
(4a)
if all these changes must be included in version 1.0, merge
"master"
or the version branch into "1.0-release":
$ git merge master
or, if the version branch is called "RNG_1_X"
$ git merge RNG_1_X
(4b)
if only part of these changes must be included in version 1.0,
cherry-pick the required commits into the "1.0-release" branch:
$ git cherry-pick commit-SHA
-----
Is there a script to automatically verify the checksums? Modular
projects tend to have a lot of files. ;-)
Do you contemplate making that check a part of the release process?
I’ve got something close with:
https://github.com/chtompki/notes/blob/master/commons-release-validation/commons-collections4-4.2-downloader.sh
<https://github.com/chtompki/notes/blob/master/commons-release-validation/commons-collections4-4.2-downloader.sh>
https://github.com/chtompki/notes/blob/master/commons-release-validation/commons-collections4-4.2-signature-validator.sh
<https://github.com/chtompki/notes/blob/master/commons-release-validation/commons-collections4-4.2-signature-validator.sh>
Nice.
Could such a script be added in the vote email, as a convenience
for those who'd like to do that check too?
Otherwise, I'd tend to think that it's a tool/procedure that must
be integrated to the release process (upload to Nexus, then run
the script to ensure that what is there is what was sent).
I don't see the purpose of several people checking what one script
can.

Gilles
