Update in particular the tarball creation steps. We now use tarballs generated by the CI. I still leave information for doing it locally in this howto, but mostly so that we can easily find this info for testing or fixing dist bugs when needed. Other than this, if the CI works flawlessly, a successful pipeline ends up with a proper tarball. The main advantages of this approach are: - Transparency: the full distribution process is now fully accessible on Gitlab, from the source, through the build (including all the logs) and up to the final tarball. Even the checksums are generated by the CI, making it easy to recognize if different tarballs were published on the download website or mirrors. This makes for a much safer and trustworthy publication process. - Less bus factor: we don't rely as much on a single person to take care of the whole process. - More automatization: a release still has to be prepared and verified manually (it always will), but at least the whole tarball creation is now automated. The next step will be to automate also the publication on the download server. |
