update the version number in packages/acs-core-docs/www/xml/variables.ent, readme.txt, and all core .info files. Regenerate the html documentation and commit all the changes. Update the information in the packages/acs-core-docs/www/xml/for-everyone/release-notes.xml file.
Check out the whole cvs tree. The files must be checked out through a cvs account with write access and should be a checkout from the release branch. In this example, the cvs user on openacs.org is implied from the ssh login information previously set up. It could be overridden via foobar@openacs.org.
cd /var/tmp
cvs -d /cvsroot checkout -r oacs-5-0 openacs-4
Repeat with the dotlrn cvs tree.
cd /var/tmp
mkdir dotlrn-packages
cd dotlrn-packages
cvs -d /dotlrn-cvsroot checkout -r dotlrn-2-0 dotlrn-all
Tag the tree.
cd /var/tmp/openacs-4
cvs tag -F openacs-5-0-0a1
Tag dotLRN. Since the dotLRN packages aren't all in one module, we iterate through all of the modules. Log in first (cvs login) so that you don't have to log in for each module.
cd /var/tmp/dotlrn-packages
for dir in *; do ( cd $dir && cvs tag -F dotlrn-2-0-0a1 ); done
Make the tarball
openacs-core.
Go to a new working space and export the tagged files.
mkdir /var/tmp/tarball
cd /var/tmp/tarball
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@openacs.org:/cvsroot export -r openacs-5-0-0a1 acs-core
mv openacs-4 openacs
Generate the tarball
cd /var/tmp/tarball
mv openacs openacs-5.0.0a1
tar cz -f openacs-5.0.0a1.tar.gz openacs-5.0.0a1
dotlrn.
Go to a new working space and export the tagged files. (was getting errors here trying to use -d, so gave up and just moved things from openacs-4 to openacs at the end)
mkdir /var/tmp/dotlrn-tarball
cd /var/tmp/dotlrn-tarball
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@openacs.org:/cvsroot export \
-r openacs-5-0-0a1 acs-core
cd /var/tmp/dotlrn-tarball/openacs-4/packages
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@openacs.org:/cvsroot export \
-r openacs-5-0-0a1 dotlrn-prereq
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@dotlrn.openacs.org:/dotlrn-cvsroot export \
-r dotlrn-2-0-0a1 dotlrn-core
cd /var/tmp/dotlrn-tarball
mv openacs-4 openacs
Copy the dotlrn install.xml file, which controls which packages are installed on setup, to the root location:
cp /var/tmp/dotlrn-tarball/openacs/packages/dotlrn/install.xml /var/tmp/dotlrn-tarball/openacs
Generate the tarball
cd /var/tmp/tarball
mv openacs dotlrn-2.0.0a1
tar cz -f dotlrn-2.0.0a1.tar.gz dotlrn-2.0.0a1
Test the new tarball
