## Preparations <a id="preparations"></a>

Specify the release version.

```
VERSION=2.6.3
```

Add your signing key to your Git configuration file, if not already there.

```
vim $HOME/.gitconfig

[user]
        email = michael.friedrich@icinga.com
        name = Michael Friedrich
        signingkey = D14A1F16
```

### Issues <a id="issues"></a>

Check issues at https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2

### Backport Commits <a id="backport-commits"></a>

For minor versions not branched off git master you need
to manually backport any and all commits from the
master branch which should be part of this release.

### Authors <a id="authors"></a>

Update the [.mailmap](.mailmap) and [AUTHORS](AUTHORS) files:

```
git log --use-mailmap | grep '^Author:' | cut -f2- -d' ' | sort | uniq > AUTHORS
```

## Version <a id="version"></a>

Update the version in the following files:

* [VERSION](VERSION)
* Application Version: [library/Icinga/Application/Version.php](library/Icinga/Application/Version.php)
* Module Versions in `modules/*/module.info`

Commands:

```
echo "v$VERSION" > VERSION
sed -i "s/const VERSION = '.*'/const VERSION = '$VERSION'/g" library/Icinga/Application/Version.php
find . -type f -name '*.info' -exec sed -i "s/Version: .*/Version: $VERSION/g" {} \;
```

## Changelog <a id="changelog"></a>

Link to the milestone and closed=1 as filter.

## Git Tag  <a id="git-tag"></a>

```
git commit -v -a -m "Release version $VERSION"
```

Create a signed tag (tags/v<VERSION>) on the `master` branch (for major
releases) or the `support` branch (for minor releases).

```
git tag -s -m "Version $VERSION" v$VERSION
```

Push the tag:

```
git push --tags
```

**For major releases:** Create a new `support` branch:

```
git checkout master
git checkout -b support/2.6
git push -u origin support/2.6
```

## Package Builds  <a id="package-builds"></a>

### RPM Packages  <a id="rpm-packages"></a>

```
git clone git@github.com:icinga/rpm-icingaweb2.git && cd rpm-icingaweb2
```

#### Branch Workflow

**Major releases** are branched off `master`.

```
git checkout master && git pull
```

**Bugfix releases** are created in the `release` branch and later merged to master.

```
git checkout release && git pull
```

#### Release Commit

Set the `Version`, `Revision` and `changelog` inside the spec file.

```
sed -i "s/Version: .*/Version: $VERSION/g" icingaweb2.spec

vim icingaweb2.spec

%changelog
* Wed Apr 24 2019 Johannes Meyer <johannes.meyer@icinga.com> 2.6.3-1
- Update to 2.6.3
```

```
git commit -av -m "Release $VERSION-1"
git push
```

**Note for major releases**: Update release branch to latest.
`git checkout release && git pull && git merge master && git push`

**Note for minor releases**: Cherry-pick the release commit into master.
`git checkout master && git pull && git cherry-pick release && git push`


### DEB Packages  <a id="deb-packages"></a>

```
git clone git@github.com:icinga/deb-icingaweb2.git && cd deb-icingaweb2
```

#### Branch Workflow

**Major releases** are branched off `master`.

```
git checkout master && git pull
```

**Bugfix releases** are created in the `release` branch and later merged to master.

#### Release Commit

Set the `Version`, `Revision` and `changelog` by using the `dch` helper.

```
VERSION=2.6.3

./dch $VERSION-1 "Update to $VERSION"
```

```
git commit -av -m "Release $VERSION-1"
git push
```


**Note for major releases**: Update release branch to latest.
