###update gitian
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to take advantage of the new caching features in gitian, be sure to update to a recent version (e9741525c or higher is recommended)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
###perform gitian builds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From a directory containing the bitcoin source, gitian-builder and gitian.sigs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
export SIGNER=(your gitian key, ie bluematt, sipa, etc)
|
|
|
|
|
export VERSION=(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
|
|
|
|
|
pushd ./bitcoin
|
|
|
|
|
git checkout v${VERSION}
|
|
|
|
|
popd
|
|
|
|
|
pushd ./gitian-builder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
###fetch and build inputs: (first time, or when dependency versions change)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mkdir -p inputs; cd inputs/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Register and download the Apple SDK: (see OSX Readme for details)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
https://developer.apple.com/downloads/download.action?path=Developer_Tools/xcode_4.6.3/xcode4630916281a.dmg
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using a Mac, create a tarball for the 10.7 SDK and copy it to the inputs directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tar -C /Volumes/Xcode/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/ -czf MacOSX10.7.sdk.tar.gz MacOSX10.7.sdk
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build Bitcoin Core for Linux, Windows, and OS X:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-linux.yml
|
|
|
|
|
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION}-linux --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-linux.yml
|
|
|
|
|
mv build/out/bitcoin-*.tar.gz build/out/src/bitcoin-*.tar.gz ../
|
|
|
|
|
./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win.yml
|
|
|
|
|
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION}-win --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win.yml
|
|
|
|
|
mv build/out/bitcoin-*.zip build/out/bitcoin-*.exe ../
|
|
|
|
|
./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-osx.yml
|
|
|
|
|
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION}-osx --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-osx.yml
|
|
|
|
|
mv build/out/bitcoin-*.tar.gz build/out/bitcoin-*.dmg ../
|
|
|
|
|
popd
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build output expected:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. source tarball (bitcoin-${VERSION}.tar.gz)
|
|
|
|
|
2. linux 32-bit and 64-bit binaries dist tarballs (bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux[32|64].tar.gz)
|
|
|
|
|
3. windows 32-bit and 64-bit installers and dist zips (bitcoin-${VERSION}-win[32|64]-setup.exe, bitcoin-${VERSION}-win[32|64].zip)
|
|
|
|
|
4. OSX installer (bitcoin-${VERSION}-osx.dmg)
|
|
|
|
|
5. Gitian signatures (in gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-<linux|win|osx>/(your gitian key)/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
###Next steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Commit your signature to gitian.sigs:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pushd gitian.sigs
|
|
|
|
|
git add ${VERSION}-linux/${SIGNER}
|
|
|
|
|
git add ${VERSION}-win/${SIGNER}
|
|
|
|
|
git add ${VERSION}-osx/${SIGNER}
|
|
|
|
|
git commit -a
|
|
|
|
|
git push # Assuming you can push to the gitian.sigs tree
|
|
|
|
|
popd
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
### After 3 or more people have gitian-built and their results match:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Perform code-signing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Code-sign Windows -setup.exe (in a Windows virtual machine using signtool)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Code-sign MacOSX .dmg
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: only Gavin has the code-signing keys currently.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Create `SHA256SUMS.asc` for the builds, and GPG-sign it:
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
|
sha256sum * > SHA256SUMS
|
|
|
|
|
gpg --digest-algo sha256 --clearsign SHA256SUMS # outputs SHA256SUMS.asc
|
|
|
|
|
rm SHA256SUMS
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
(the digest algorithm is forced to sha256 to avoid confusion of the `Hash:` header that GPG adds with the SHA256 used for the files)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Upload zips and installers, as well as `SHA256SUMS.asc` from last step, to the bitcoin.org server
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update bitcoin.org version
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make a pull request to add a file named `YYYY-MM-DD-vX.Y.Z.md` with the release notes
|
|
|
|
|
to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.org/tree/master/_releases
|
|
|
|
|
([Example for 0.9.2.1](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.org/master/_releases/2014-06-19-v0.9.2.1.md)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- After the pull request is merged, the website will automatically show the newest version, as well
|
|
|
|
|
as update the OS download links. Ping Saivann in case anything goes wrong
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Announce the release:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Release sticky on bitcointalk: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=1.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Bitcoin-development mailing list
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update title of #bitcoin on Freenode IRC
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Optionally reddit /r/Bitcoin, ... but this will usually sort out itself
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Notify BlueMatt so that he can start building [https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/ubuntu/bitcoin](the PPAs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add release notes for the new version to the directory `doc/release-notes` in git master
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Celebrate
