In ci-management/jjb/honeycomb/honeycomb.yaml https://git.fd.io/ci-management/tree/jjb/honeycomb/honeycomb.yaml#n24 - add a new ‘stream’ for your new YYMM (example: for stable/1707:
- '1707': branch: 'stable/1707’' repo-stream-part: 'stable.1707'
(example https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/7447/1/jjb/honeycomb/honeycomb.yaml)
Cut Branch
Create a new branch stable/YYMM (example: stable/1609) in the gerrit web UI against the point on master you wish to be cutting the branch (usually HEAD at the time your cutting). https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/admin/projects/honeycomb,branches
Update stable/YYMM Branch
On stable/YYMM (example: stable/1609) prepare a commit which updates the .gitreview to reflect the correct branch and updates the maven versions (in a single patch) and the versions used for building rpms/debs Example: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/1157/1/.gitreview Example: https://git.fd.io/cgit/honeycomb/tree/packaging/rpm/version
Merge the patch
== Verify correct package versions Go look for package with the correct versions at: https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.YYMM.centos7/ ( example: ( https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.1609.centos7/ ) https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.YYMM.ubuntu.trusty.main/ example: ( https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.1609.ubuntu.trusty.main/ ) https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.YYMM.ubuntu.xenial.main/ example: (https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.1609.ubuntu.xenial.main/ ) Verify that package like artifacts are present in all the above git repos by looking for them in ‘Package’ in the apt repos (trusty and xenial)
