## Making a point release
If rclone needs a point release due to some horrendous bug:
2019-09-02 12:05:29 +00:00
2020-09-03 10:29:33 +00:00
Set vars
2019-09-02 12:05:29 +00:00
2020-06-10 15:49:04 +00:00
* BASE_TAG=v1.XX # eg v1.52
* NEW_TAG=${BASE_TAG}.Y # eg v1.52.1
* echo $BASE_TAG $NEW_TAG # v1.52 v1.52.1
2020-09-03 10:29:33 +00:00
First make the release branch. If this is a second point release then
this will be done already.
2020-06-10 15:49:04 +00:00
* git branch ${BASE_TAG} ${BASE_TAG}-stable
2020-09-03 10:29:33 +00:00
* git co ${BASE_TAG}-stable
* make startstable
2019-09-02 12:05:29 +00:00
Now
2020-06-10 15:49:04 +00:00
* git co ${BASE_TAG}-stable
* git cherry-pick any fixes
2020-09-03 10:29:33 +00:00
* Do the steps as above
* make startstable
2020-09-13 09:27:24 +00:00
* NB this overwrites the current beta so we need to do this
2019-09-02 12:05:29 +00:00
* git co master
2020-09-03 10:29:33 +00:00
* # cherry pick the changes to the changelog
* git checkout ${BASE_TAG}-stable docs/content/changelog.md
* git commit -a -v -m "Changelog updates from Version ${NEW_TAG}"
2019-09-02 12:05:29 +00:00
* git push
## Making a manual build of docker
2020-06-10 15:49:04 +00:00
The rclone docker image should autobuild on via GitHub actions. If it doesn't
or needs to be updated then rebuild like this.
```
2020-06-10 15:51:05 +00:00
docker pull golang
docker build --rm --ulimit memlock=67108864 -t rclone/rclone:1.52.0 -t rclone/rclone:1.52 -t rclone/rclone:1 -t rclone/rclone:latest .
docker push rclone/rclone:1.52.0
docker push rclone/rclone:1.52
docker push rclone/rclone:1
docker push rclone/rclone:latest
```
