Major Description
Need to create a tag on the branch-1.8 HEAD named: release-1.8.0
Steps to create the tag:
Make sure you have the latest branch-1.8 changes
git checkout branch-1.8 && git pull origin
Create the tag
git tag -a release-1.8.0 -m "Sentry 1.8.0 release"
Make sure compiles/tests run fine and rat check is fine
mvn clean install -DskipTests mvn test (this is optional as SENTRY-1860 already run all the tests) mvn verify -DskipTests (to do the rat check)
Push the new tag to github
git push origin release-1.8.0
If you made a mistake, then you can delete the branch and push it again
git tag -d release-1.8.0 git push origin :refs/tags/release-1.8.0
