1 Adding a product to the release
3 Make sure the firmware and loader get built by default in
6 Add firmware targets to fat_altos target in Makefile.am
8 Add the firmware to altosui/Makefile.am
10 Add the firmware to altosui/altos-windows.nsi.in
12 Add the firmware to telegps/Makefile.am
14 Add the firmware to telegps/telegps-windows.nsi.in
16 Add the firmware to Releasing
18 Add new product specs to doc/specs.inc
20 These are Keith's notes on how to do a release
22 - update the version and date in configure.ac if Bdale hasn't already
24 - update the ANDROID_VERSION in configure.ac if releasing AltosDroid
26 - follow instructions in doc/RELNOTES
28 - make sure there is a doc/release-notes-<version>.inc
30 - make sure doc/release-notes.inc points at that
32 - make sure doc/Makefile points at that too
34 - confirm doc/header.inc has correct copyright year
37 These are Bdale's notes on how to do a release.
39 - make sure Debian build environment is up to date
40 sudo cowbuilder --update
42 - make sure fat build environment is up to date
43 sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autoremove
45 - ensure i386 build support is available, and we have tools to build
46 installers for Windows and Mac OS X
49 sudo apt install genisoimage nsis gcc-avr avr-libc \
50 gcc-i686-linux-gnu gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu \
51 gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf \
52 gcc-mingw-w64-i686-posix gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64-win32
54 - make sure jsign is installed so we can sign Windows installers:
56 https://github.com/ebourg/jsign/releases/download/5.0/jsign_5.0_all.deb
58 - make sure ~/web/altusmetrum has no pending pullable commits
62 - update the version in configure.ac if Keith hasn't already
64 - if this is an x.y release, then:
65 git checkout -b branch-<version>
67 - if this is an x.y.z release, then:
68 git checkout branch-<version> # the x.y parts only
69 - cherry-pick or merge appropriate content from master
71 - make sure there is a doc/release-notes-<version>.inc
72 - make sure that doc/*.txt have the right copyright year and the
73 new release is included
74 - confirm doc/header.inc has correct copyright year
75 - make absolutely sure checked-out tree is "clean"
76 - make absolutely sure any commits Keith might have pushed to branches
77 like debian are already pulled
80 git commit -a -m'update ChangeLog for <version> release'
81 git tag -a <version> -m'Releasing <version>' # full x.y.z version
83 - make sure .git/gbp.conf set to use branch-<version> as upstream
86 git merge branch-<version>
88 - verify debian/changelog is "clean" ending in last release version
89 - craft a suitable debian/changelog entry, possibly using:
90 export EMAIL=bdale@gag.com
91 gbp dch --release --multimaint-merge --new-version=<version>-1
93 git commit -n debian/changelog -m "update changelog for Debian build"
95 - review debian/patches, all should be obsoleted by a new release, so
96 take care of any that are there and commit the changes
98 - if this is a -1 release, then
99 gbp buildpackage --git-no-pristine-tar \
100 --git-upstream-branch=branch-<version> \ # eg 1.3
101 --git-upstream-tag=<version> # eg 1.3.1
102 pristine-tar commit \
103 ../build-area/altos_<version>.orig.tar.gz \
105 else if this is not a -1 release
108 git tag debian/<version>
110 - at this point we have packages in ~/debian/build-area/altos, now
111 we move on to the non-Debian part of the release process
113 make distclean (just to be sure, this should do nothing)
115 ./autogen.sh --enable-multi-arch \
116 --with-fat-dir=/home/bdale/web/altusmetrum/
119 - store a stable copy of ARM binaries for production use
121 cp src/chaoskey-v1.0/{*.elf,*.ihx,*.bin,*.map} \

148 ~/altusmetrumllc/Binaries/loaders/
149 (cd ~/altusmetrumllc ; git add Binaries ; git commit -a)
150 - remove previous versions (only keep latest release)
151 (cd ~/altusmetrumllc ; git push)
153 - Push new release to web site
156 (cd doc ; make publish)
158 (cd ~/web/altusmetrum/ && \
159 git add */releases && git commit -m'Release <rev>' && \
160 git push origin master)
162 - upload the Debian package
166 sudo debian/rules clean
167 git push origin master branch-<version> debian pristine-tar
170 Testing before a release
172 To verify that a build works, the following need to be checked
177 2) Connect TM *and* TD devices. Verify that you can Monitor
178 Flight from the TD and Configure Telemetrum from the TM.
180 3) Replay Flight, using your favorite .eeprom file. Check
181 each tab, especially the 'Site Map' tab. Make sure the
184 4) Graph Data. Graph a favorite .eeprom file. Make sure you
185 can zoom in on some region of the graph.
