svn commit: r1902723 - /subversion/site/staging/docs/community-guide/releasing.part.html

Author: dsahlberg
Date: Thu Jul 14 19:51:28 2022
New Revision: 1902723

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1902723&view=rev
Log:
In site/staging:
Remove the option to run release.py in a shallow working copy.
release.py get-keys (as of r1902722) requires COMMITTERS to be part
of the WC.
We could update release.py to download COMMITTERS directly from the repository
but having less variations to the release process should decrease the chance
of an unnoticed snag.

How about keeping the parenthesized list and adding COMMITTERS to it?
This would make it easier to minimize dependencies on the trunk tree,
which would be a good thing (e.g., it would be harder to accidentally
use trunk's svn_version.h instead of a branch's).
