             Summary: Update release process
                 Key: PARQUET-1687
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-1687
             Project: Parquet
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: parquet-format, parquet-mr, parquet-site
            Reporter: Gabor Szadovszky
            Assignee: Gabor Szadovszky


Our current tagging policy in the release process requires to use the same tag for all the release candidates which means at RC2 we remove the tag from RC1 head and adds again to the RC2 head and so on. It is not a good practice. Hard to track RCs and rewriting git history is usually not a good idea.
Update the related scripts and docs so we will create RC tags (e.g. {{apache-parquet-1.11.0-rc6}}) first and add the final release tag (e.g. {{apache-parquet-1.11.0}}) after the vote passes.
