Hi folks, [this mail is for those that build Apache Isis from source code; ignore otherwise]
The ASF board recently gave guidance that git release tags should be held under "refs/tags/rel" branch, with any tags pushed to this path unmodifiable. This provides appropriate traceability/provenance of source code releases. Accordingly I've gone through all our old tags, eg isis-1.11.1 and created a new tag rels/isis-1.11.1. I've then deleted the old tag. If you have a clone or fork of the Apache Isis code, then I recommend that you clean up the tags on your repo. Assuming that: * 'upstream' is the remote for the Apache Isis repo (normally https://github/apache/isis) * 'origin' is the remote name for your own fork of Apache Isis repo To pull down the new "rel" tags, use: git fetch upstream --tags To push these new tags up to your own fork, use: git push origin --tags To delete all the non-rel tags on your local repo, use: for a in `git tag | grep -v rel` ; do echo $a; git tag -d $a; done To delete all the non-rel tags on your own fork, use: for a in `git ls-remote --tags origin | grep -v "\^" | grep -v rel | awk '{print $2}' | cut -c11-`; do echo $a; git push origin :refs/tags/$a; done Thanks Dan
