-===== Rolling Evergreen and OpenSRF releases =====
-==== Rolling an OpenSRF release ====
-Rough notes, assuming you're using ''/home/dan'' as your working directory and cutting a new branch from trunk to rel_1_4. In most real world cases, it would be rel_1_4 to rel_1_4_#. Also, you would normally tag the release.
-  - Create a new branch:<code>
-svn copy svn://svn.open-ils.org/OpenSRF/trunk svn://svn.open-ils.org/OpenSRF/branches/rel_1_6
-  -m "Create rel_1_4 branch for next major OpenSRF release"</code>
-  - Create a clean export of the data: <code>svn export svn://svn.open-ils.org/OpenSRF/branches/rel_1_6 /home/dan/opensrf-1.6.0</code>. As of 1.6.0, we have started using lower case directory and package names to comply with Debian packaging standards.
-  - Generate ./configure file: <code>cd /home/dan/opensrf-1.6.0; ./autogen.sh</code>
-  - Generate a ChangeLog in reverse chronological order: <code>svn2cl --group-by-day --separate-daylogs --linelen 90 -r HEAD:2020 svn://svn.open-ils.org/OpenSRF/branches/rel_1_6</code>  (on Karmic, requires grabbing an updated stylesheet directly from http://arthurdejong.org/svn2cl/downloads.html and dumping into /etc/svn2cl/svn2cl.xsl).
-    * Note: I have started creating ChangeLogs that show the cumulative changes for a given release, distinguishing between alphas, betas, and point releases. Basically ''cat ChangeLog.old >> ChangeLog.new'' and add a header distinguishing each block of changes. That way we will not have to link to ten different ChangeLogs if we reach 1.6.10.
-  - Update the ChangeLog in the tagged release (check it in to the tag)
-  - Update the version stamp in the tagged release (edit src/perl/lib/OpenSRF.pm)
-  - Tar it up: <code>cd /home/dan; tar czf opensrf-1.6.0.tar.gz opensrf-1.6.0</code>
-  - Create an md5 hash for the package: <code>md5sum opensrf-1_6_0.tar.gz > opensrf-1.4.0.tar.gz.md5</code>
