I find that the release plugin docs don't give me an adequate idea of
what to expect to happen in svn when I run
release:prepare
release:rollback
release:perform
release:branch
After some experimentation I think I know what happens for some of
these:
release:prepare makes 3 svn commits
- update current project to release version
- create tag (from what? I have no idea)
- update current project to next development version
release:rollback, in an indeterminate number of commits, undoes
anything committed since release:prepare was run for the first time in
this release attempt. In particular if you tried to commit build
fixes that only became evident during release:prepare, they will get
undone.
release:perform makes no svn changes
release:branch I have no idea about.
I suspect it would take about 15 minutes for one of the authors to
update the docs with some accurate info along these lines and I doubt
I would be the only one appreciating the effort.
thanks
