Release Process
- update translations (ping wumpus, Diapolo or tcatm on IRC)
- see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/translation_process.md#syncing-with-transifex
###update (commit) version in sources
bitcoin-qt.pro
contrib/verifysfbinaries/verify.sh
doc/README*
share/setup.nsi
src/clientversion.h (change CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to true)
###tag version in git
git tag -s v(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
###write release notes. git shortlog helps a lot, for example:
git shortlog --no-merges v(current version, e.g. 0.7.2)..v(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
##perform gitian builds
From a directory containing the bitcoin source, gitian-builder and gitian.sigs
export SIGNER=(your gitian key, ie bluematt, sipa, etc)
export VERSION=(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
pushd ./bitcoin
git checkout v${VERSION}
popd
pushd ./gitian-builder
Fetch and build inputs: (first time, or when dependency versions change)

Build bitcoind and bitcoin-qt on Linux32, Linux64, and Win32:
./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian.yml
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION} --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian.yml
pushd build/out
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip *
mv bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip ../../../
popd
./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win32.yml
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION}-win32 --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win32.yml
pushd build/out
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip *
mv bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip ../../../
popd
popd
Build output expected:
- linux 32-bit and 64-bit binaries + source (bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip)
- windows 32-bit binary, installer + source (bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip)
- Gitian signatures (in gitian.sigs/${VERSION}[-win32]/(your gitian key)/
repackage gitian builds for release as stand-alone zip/tar/installer exe
Linux .tar.gz:
unzip bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip -d bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux
tar czvf bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux.tar.gz bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux
rm -rf bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux
Windows .zip and setup.exe:
unzip bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip -d bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32
mv bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32/bitcoin-*-setup.exe .
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32.zip bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32
rm -rf bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32
Perform Mac build:
OSX binaries are created by Gavin Andresen on a 32-bit, OSX 10.6 machine.
qmake RELEASE=1 USE_UPNP=1 USE_QRCODE=1 bitcoin-qt.pro
make
export QTDIR=/opt/local/share/qt4 # needed to find translations/qt_*.qm files
T=$(contrib/qt_translations.py $QTDIR/translations src/qt/locale)
python2.7 share/qt/clean_mac_info_plist.py
python2.7 contrib/macdeploy/macdeployqtplus Bitcoin-Qt.app -add-qt-tr $T -dmg -fancy contrib/macdeploy/fancy.plist
Build output expected: Bitcoin-Qt.dmg
###Next steps:
-
Code-sign Windows -setup.exe (in a Windows virtual machine) and OSX Bitcoin-Qt.app (Note: only Gavin has the code-signing keys currently)
-
upload builds to SourceForge
-
create SHA256SUMS for builds, and PGP-sign it
-
update bitcoin.org version make sure all OS download links go to the right versions
-
update download sizes on bitcoin.org/_templates/download.html
-
update forum version
-
update wiki download links
-
update wiki changelog: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Changelog
Commit your signature to gitian.sigs:
pushd gitian.sigs
git add ${VERSION}/${SIGNER}
git add ${VERSION}-win32/${SIGNER}
git commit -a
git push # Assuming you can push to the gitian.sigs tree
popd
After 3 or more people have gitian-built, repackage gitian-signed zips:
From a directory containing bitcoin source, gitian.sigs and gitian zips
export VERSION=(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
mkdir bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian
pushd bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian
unzip ../bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip
mkdir gitian
cp ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-downloader/*.pgp ./gitian/
for signer in $(ls ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}/); do
cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert
cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert.sig ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert.sig
done
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip *
cp bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip ../
popd
mkdir bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian
pushd bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian
unzip ../bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip
mkdir gitian
cp ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-downloader/*.pgp ./gitian/
for signer in $(ls ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-win32/); do
cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-win32/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert
cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-win32/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert.sig ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert.sig
done
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip *
cp bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip ../
popd
