Revision as of 20:16, 4 June 2015

Edited to use Git and cherry-picking.

How? ("Who" in parenthesis)

  • (QA): Find an error in the binaries, determine if it needs to be patched, and alert the Developer.
  • (Developer): Create a Build Patch issue in redmine. Fix the error (and get a second opinion on your fix from another developer). Let the QA person know that it is fixed.
  • (QA): Verify the developer's fix on hgwdev. Send email to Build-meister (cc'ing browser-qa and developer) with revision number of the fix and patch request (including an explanation of the problem and the fix and the CGIs that will be affected).
  • (Build-Meister): Check the Git log to make sure that you are making the correct change.
hgwdev> cd $BUILDDIR/v${BRANCHNN}_branch/kent/src
hgwdev> git log hg/someCgi/someFile.c
hgwdev> ssh -X build@hgwdev          # the optional '-X' allows X-windows support    
<build@hgwdev> cd $BUILDDIR/v${BRANCHNN}_branch/kent/src
<build@hgwdev> git log hg/someCgi/someFile.c
  • (Build-Meister): Tell the program which file and version you want to change to.
<build@hgwdev> cd $WEEKLYBLD
<build@hgwdev> edit CherryPickCommits.conf
    • This is a list and you can have more than one line if you need.
    • Edit this file to include the git commit hash id like so:

96b0dc9826d589e09daf2bd1a36ef513c91255b1

  • (Build-Meister): Do a test run and verify that everything is set up correctly:
<build@hgwdev> ./cherryPickCommits.csh
  • (Build-Meister): If it is correct, run it for real:
<build@hgwdev> ./cherryPickCommits.csh real
  • (Build-Meister): Determine which CGIs are affected by this file change:
 Actually this is obsolete, the dependences program no longer works in git,
 so you will have to figure it out in other ways.
<build@hgwdev> cd /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin
<build@hgwdev:/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin> ./dependencies fileName.c
  • (Build-Meister): Go to the current build:
<build@hgwdev> cd ${BUILDDIR}/v${BRANCHNN}_branch
  • (Build-Meister): Do a 'make' in the library directory, if necessary. If the file change was a lib file, then do a make in the corresponding lib directory:
<build@hgwdev> cd ${BUILDDIR}/v${BRANCHNN}_branch/kent/src/lib>
<build@hgwdev> make
    • -or-
<build@hgwdev> cd ${BUILDDIR}/v${BRANCHNN}_branch/kent/src/hg/lib>
<build@hgwdev> make
  • (Build-Meister): If only one or two programs are impacted by the change, do a 'make beta' in their CGI directories:
<build@hgwdev> cd ${BUILDDIR}/v${BRANCHNN}_branch/kent/src/hg
<build@hgwdev> cd path/to/c/file   # e.g.: cd hgTracks
<build@hgwdev> make beta
    • -or-
  • (Build-Meister): If all or many are impacted, do a 'make beta' in hg/:
<build@hgwdev> cd ${BUILDDIR}/v${BRANCHNN}_branch/kent/src/hg
<build@hgwdev> make beta

Rsync binaries to hgwbeta machine. BE CAREFUL not to over-write hg.conf* files on hgwbeta:

<build@hgwdev> rsync -a -P --exclude=hg.conf --exclude=hg.conf.private \
 /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin-beta/ qateam@hgwbeta:/data/apache/cgi-bin/

Note if you did a full make beta in hg, you may need to do these too, which update htdocs, js, and style dirs:

<build@hgwdev> rsync -a -P          /usr/local/apache/htdocs-beta/       qateam@hgwbeta:/data/apache/htdocs/
<build@hgwdev> rsync -a -P --delete /usr/local/apache/htdocs-beta/js/    qateam@hgwbeta:/data/apache/htdocs/js/
<build@hgwdev> rsync -a -P --delete /usr/local/apache/htdocs-beta/style/ qateam@hgwbeta:/data/apache/htdocs/style/
  • (Build-Meister): Update the redmine ticket that the build has been patched and binaries made on hgwdev and synced to hgwbeta.
  • (Build-Meister): Update or re-do gbib build steps.
  • (Build-Meister): If the final build-wrapup has already been done, you will need to re-do the relevant parts (minimally, the beta branch and release tag (vNNN_branch.1 ->.2) and source.zip would have to be re-done.
  • (QA): Test the change on hgwbeta.
  • (QA): Reply to the email about the efficacy of the change.
