=Releasing to Mirrors=

<ol>
 
−
<li>Log into iroh as yourself. Upload your final builds to your home directory.</li>
 
−
<li>Run:
 
−
<pre>
 
−
/scripts/amjump mirror
 
−
cd /scripts/mirror
 
−
</pre>
 
−
</li>
 
−
<li>Copy your final builds from your home directory into the mirror folder. Rename them to release names, for example: <tt>sourcemod-1.1.2.zip</tt> or <tt>mmsource-1.8.0.zip</tt>.</li>
 
−
<li>Mirror distribution is done with the following command:
 
−
<pre>
 
−
./mirror.pl <projectID> <releaseName> <file>
 
−
</pre>
 
−
Metamod:Source's ID is 4, SourceMod's ID is 2.  For example, these commands mirrored the Metamod:Source 1.7.0 release:
 
−
<pre>
 
−
./mirror.pl 4 1.7.0 mmsource-1.7.0.zip
 
−
./mirror.pl 4 1.7.0 mmsource-1.7.0.tar.gz
 
−
</pre>
 
−
These commands mirrored the last SourceMod release:
 
−
<pre>
 
−
./mirror.pl 2 1.1.1 sourcemod-1.1.1.tar.gz
 
−
./mirror.pl 2 1.1.1 sourcemod-1.1.1.zip
 
−
</pre>

<li>Type <tt>exit</tt> to get back to your user account.  You're done!</li>

</ol>

−
=Cleaning up the Tree=
 
−
It's time to make sure the tree is set for future development.
 
−
 
 
−
<ol>
 
−
<li>Run <tt>hg tag</tt> on the last revision of the release. Usually this is the changeset that bumped versions, and usually this is <tt>tip</tt>.  For example, Metamod:Source:
 
−
<pre>hg tag mmsource-1.7.2</pre>
 
−
SourceMod:
 
−
<pre>hg tag sourcemod-1.1.2</pre>
 
−
</li>
 
−
<li>Bump the minor version in <tt>product.version</tt>. Don't forget to add -dev.</li>
 
−
<li>Change the <tt>tools/buildbot/build_type</tt> (SourceMod) or <tt>support/buildbot/build_type</tt> (Metamod:Source) contents back to "dev".</li>
 
−
<li>For SourceMod, bump the two minor versions in <tt>plugins/include/version.inc</tt> and re-add the -dev tag to the version string.</li>
 
−
<li>Commit and push.</li>
 
−
</ol>
 
−
 
 
−
=Updating the SourceMod Site=
 
−
<ol>
 
−
<li>Visit a [http://wiki.alliedmods.net/SourceMod_Release_Notes Release Notes] page. Copy the contents, make a new one for your specific release.  Update the changelog, relnote anything big and important.  Link back to it from the "main" relnotes page.</li>
 
−
<li>Jump to the sourcemod account by logging into iroh as yourself:
 
−
<pre>
 
−
/scripts/amjump sourcemod
 
−
cd /home/groups/sourcemod
 
−
</pre>
 
−
</li>
 
−
<li>Edit the <tt>public_html/downloads.php</tt> file with your favorite text editor.  Edit all instances of the old version with the new one.  Make sure to get every link, including relnotes.</li>
 
−
<li>Update ~/compiler-1.x to the latest minor version, where x is the major version number.</li>
 
−
<li>Run <tt>~/scripts/purge_old_builds.pl</tt>, then edit its entry for 1.x.y, where x = this major release, and y = the new minor version.</li>
 
−
<li>Exit out of the sourcemod account.</li>
 
−
<li>Post news.  If you deviate from normal style, don't forget links for downloads, upgrading, and relnotes.  It also helps to say "this is backwards compatible" because users will always ask.</li>
