Building "official" binary releases of Apache CouchDB

[Dave Cottlehuber <da...@muse.net.nz>]

Hi,

I'd like to start releasing official binaries for CouchDB. There is a
documented build process [1], albeit with some manual steps.

There are a number of awkward requirements, mainly because we need to
build Erlang from source;

- 64-bit windows & MS SDK 7.1
- cygwin
- mozilla build tools 1.6
- nasm
- inno5 setup
- nsis setup
- strawberry perl

Assuming all of that can be installed, and a solution found for the
manual pre-requisites that don't' change very often, what automation
tools are used to hook builds into a git hook of some form?

I'm happy to RTFM but haven't found one (yet).

A+
Dave

Bump; any advice on how I can get CouchDB builds onto the windows
build bot infrastructure?

Thanks
