Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-4508:
--------------------------------------
Here's what the HowToRelease page says:
{quote}
# You probably also want to commit a patch (on both trunk and branch) which
updates README.txt to bring it up to date (at a minimum, search+replacing
references to the version number). Also check NOTICE to see if anything needs
to be updated for recent library dependency changes or additions.
## Select all of the JIRA's for the current release that aren't FIXED and do
bulk update to clear the 'Fixed Version' field.
## Likewise, use JIRA's Release Notes link to generate content for the
RELEASE_NOTES.txt file. Be sure to select 'Text' format. (It's OK to do this
with a direct commit rather than a patch.)
{quote}
The narrow interpretation of this is that you are only allowed to commit
changes to RELEASE_NOTES.txt without a +1, and I believe that is the actual
intent since those changes are purely mechanical. I can understand how someone
could read this and conclude that the policy also extends to README.txt,
NOTICE, and build.properties, but it's easy to verify that this isn't the case
by looking at the comments in the commit log. That still leaves two files that
were modified in the patch which aren't mentioned anywhere on the HowToRelease
page.
Can you please post a review request for this patch? I noticed a couple other
issues in the affected files that should be fixed before this patch is
forward-ported to trunk. Thanks.
