Release Process

Each new version of hudson.war is released by the process described here.

  • New development always goes to the trunk, (which is built by Hudson). Trunk is always open for new commits.
  • Every Wednesday, Kohsuke cuts the release candidate (RC) branch. More exhaustive and expensive testing starts on this branch (built by Hudson)
  • Every late Friday, Kohsuke releases a new version of Hudson from the RC branch.

Occasionally we do releases out of this cycle by necessity, but these are the basics. Because of this, there can be maximum of up to 10 days before a change in the trunk becomes available in a release.

Permalinks

TODOs

  • I need to improve Hudson so that people can pick up the latest RC build from Hudson UI.
