When a new branch is created, some work needs to
be done to specify that the previous branch is no longer
equivalent to HEAD
.
As
srcbuild
:
Edit /a/portbuild/conf/admin/admin.conf
with the following changes:
Add new-branch
to
SRC_BRANCHES
.
For what was previously head, change
SRC_BRANCH_
to
branch
_SUBDIRreleng/
(literal zero).branch
.0
Add
SRC_BRANCH_
new-branch
_SUBDIR=head
.
Run /a/portbuild/admin/scripts/updatesnap
manually.
For each branch that will be supported, do the following:
As portbuild
,
kick-start the build for the branch with:
arch
branch
As srcbuild
,
create
bindist.tar
.
