## Building Release Tarballs
In order to build a release tarball you should first check out the Git repository
in a new directory. If you're using an existing check-out you should make sure
that there are no local modifications:
$ git status
### Release Checklist
Here's a short check-list for releases:
Update the [.mailmap](.mailmap) and [AUTHORS](AUTHORS) files
$ git log --use-mailmap | grep ^Author: | cut -f2- -d' ' | sort | uniq > AUTHORS
Bump the version in icinga2.spec.
Update the [ChangeLog](ChangeLog), [doc/1-about.md](doc/1-about.md) and [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md)
files using the changelog.py script.
Commit these changes to the "master" branch.
$ git commit -v -a -m "Release version <VERSION>"
Create a signed tag (tags/v<VERSION>).
GB:
$ git tag -u EE8E0720 -m "Version <VERSION>" v<VERSION>
MF:
$ git tag -u D14A1F16 -m "Version <VERSION>" v<VERSION>
Push the tag.
$ git push --tags
Merge the "master" branch into the "support/2.3" branch (using --ff-only).
$ git checkout support/2.3
$ git merge --ff-only master
$ git push origin support/2.3
Note: CMake determines the Icinga 2 version number using `git describe` if the
source directory is contained in a Git repository. Otherwise the version number
is extracted from the [icinga2.spec](icinga2.spec) file. This behavior can be overridden by
creating a file called `icinga-version.h.force` in the source directory.
Alternatively the `-DICINGA2_GIT_VERSION_INFO=OFF` option for CMake can be used to
disable the usage of `git describe`.
### Build Tarball
Use `git archive` to build the release tarball:
$ VERSION=2.3.2
$ git archive --format=tar --prefix=icinga2-$VERSION/ tags/v$VERSION | gzip >icinga2-$VERSION.tar.gz
Finally you should verify that the tarball only contains the files it should contain:
$ VERSION=2.3.2
$ tar ztf icinga2-$VERSION.tar.gz | less

For minor releases: Cherry-pick this commit into the "support" branch.
Create a signed tag (tags/v<VERSION>) on the "master" branch (for major
releases) or the "support" branch (for minor releases).
