Release Note

These scripts came originally from spark [1]. They were then modified to suit hbase context. Supercedes the old ../make_rc.sh script because what is here is more comprehensive doing more steps of the RM process as well as running in a container so the RM build environment can be a constant.

 It:
     * Tags release
     * Sets version to the release version
     * Sets version to next SNAPSHOT version.
     * Builds, signs, and hashes all artifacts.
     * Pushes release tgzs to the dev dir in a apache dist.
     * Pushes to repository.apache.org staging.

 The entry point is the do-release-docker.sh script. Pass -h to see available options. For example, running below will do all steps above using the 'rm' dir under Downloads as workspace:

     $ ./do-release-docker.sh -d ~/Downloads/rm

Description

The spark/dev/create-release is more comprehensive than our hokey make_rc.sh script. It codifies the bulk of the RM process from tagging, version-setting, building, signing, and pushing. It does it in a container so environment is same each time. It has a bunch of spark-specifics as is – naturally – but should be possible to pull it around to suit hbase RM'ing. It'd save a bunch of time and would allow us to get to a place where RM'ing is canned, evolvable, and consistent.

I've been hacking on the tooling before the filing of this JIRA and was polluting branch-2.0 w/ tagging and reverts. Let me make a branch named for this JIRA to play with (There is a dry-run flag but it too needs work...).
