[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-8914) Automate release builds

Eli Collins created HADOOP-8914:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Automate release builds
                 Key: HADOOP-8914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8914
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Eli Collins


Hadoop releases are currently created manually by the RM (following http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease), which means various aspects of the build are ad hoc, eg what tool chain was used to compile the java and native code varies from release to release. Other steps can be inconsistent since they're done manually eg recently the checksums for an RC were incorrect. Let's use the jenkins toolchain and create a job that automates creating release builds so that the only manual thing about releasing is publishing to mvn central.

That would definitely be a good start.  Part of a release is also signing and uploading the JARs to Nexus (The maven repo), so that would also have to be done manually then.

+1 for that.  I have the beginnings of a script that I would be happy to donate to the effort.  However that is the script that caused the signing issues.  The big problem I see is how do we sign the builds?  I am not really sure I trust putting my PGP private key on the jenkins build hosts, and giving jenkins my password to decrypt it.

-------------------------------------

For starters we could just create a job that generates the necessary tarballs and checksums for the RM to sign and upload.
