[DISCUSS] Tooling for automating release management tasks

[Robert Munteanu <ro...@apache.org>]

Hi,

I've been investigating the feasibility of automating some of the
release management tasks, following-up on [1].

My initial work is in a branch on the whiteboard, see PR [2] and Jira
task [3].

I'd like to ask people interested to take it for a spin and let me know
what they think.

It's built as CLI tool ( Java/OSGi/Feature Model/Docker ).

The code lives in the feature/SLING-8311 branch of the whiteboard, to
build it it's enough to run:

$ git checkout feature/SLING-8311
$ cd cli
$ mvn verify

To run commands you will need to create a docker-env file to pass
credentials to authenticate against Nexus ( see docker-env.sample ):

  ASF_USERNAME=changeme
  ASF_PASSWORD=changeme

At this point you're all set to start running commands, I'll list at
the end of the email the ones that are implemented.

Would love to hear what other think.

Thanks,

Robert
