# Release checklist
|
|
|
|
Hop releases are built on a trusted maintainer machine and uploaded by
|
|
GoReleaser as draft Gitea Releases. Gitea Actions and act runners are not
|
|
required; the server only stores source, tags, release metadata, and assets.
|
|
|
|
The canonical repository is `githop.xyz/GnosysLabs/Hop`.
|
|
|
|
## One-time Gitea setup
|
|
|
|
- Create the `GnosysLabs/Hop` repository and set its default branch to `main`.
|
|
- Configure `origin` as `https://githop.xyz/GnosysLabs/Hop.git`.
|
|
- Keep Gitea Actions disabled when the instance does not have dedicated runner
|
|
capacity; Hop's release process does not depend on it.
|
|
- Create a narrowly scoped maintainer access token that can write releases.
|
|
Export it as `GITEA_TOKEN` only for the local publish command, then unset it.
|
|
- When upgrading GoReleaser, update its pinned version and four archive
|
|
checksums in `scripts/release-local.sh` from the official checksum file.
|
|
- Permit release attachment MIME types for `.tar.gz`, `.zip`, and `.txt` in
|
|
Gitea's `[attachment] ALLOWED_TYPES` configuration.
|
|
- Enable the repository wiki, then push the files in `wiki/` to its wiki Git
|
|
repository.
|
|
|
|
## Public-launch gates
|
|
|
|
- Choose and add a `LICENSE`. The local publishing script intentionally fails
|
|
without one; this is a product/legal decision, not a build default.
|
|
- Add `SECURITY.md` with a monitored private disclosure address.
|
|
- Create an offline-controlled release-signing key, publish its public key, and
|
|
add detached signing for `checksums.txt` before general availability.
|
|
- Confirm the `githop.xyz/GnosysLabs/Hop` Go import path serves valid `go-import`
|
|
metadata.
|
|
- Back up the Gitea database, repositories, and release attachments.
|
|
|
|
## Validate before tagging
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
scripts/release-local.sh --snapshot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Inspect `dist/` and test at least one archive on each operating system family.
|
|
Confirm `hop version` reports the snapshot/tag-injected version and
|
|
`hop skill install --force` installs identical Hop-managed files at both
|
|
default skill destinations while preserving unrelated user files.
|
|
|
|
## Create a release
|
|
|
|
1. Update release notes. The signed Git tag is the version source and is
|
|
injected into the binaries automatically.
|
|
2. Run `scripts/release-local.sh --snapshot` and inspect the artifacts.
|
|
3. Create a signed semantic-version tag such as `v0.1.0-alpha.1` and push it.
|
|
4. Export a locally stored, scoped token: `export GITEA_TOKEN=...`.
|
|
5. Run `scripts/release-local.sh --publish`. It reruns race tests, vet, installer
|
|
checks, builds six platform archives, generates `checksums.txt`, and uploads
|
|
a draft without executing build work on the Gitea server.
|
|
6. Immediately run `unset GITEA_TOKEN`.
|
|
7. Download the draft assets and independently verify checksums, version output,
|
|
skill installation, and a disposable Hop project.
|
|
8. Publish the Gitea draft only after those checks pass.
|
|
9. Test both one-command installers against the now-published release.
|
|
|
|
## Expected assets
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
hop_darwin_amd64.tar.gz
|
|
hop_darwin_arm64.tar.gz
|
|
hop_linux_amd64.tar.gz
|
|
hop_linux_arm64.tar.gz
|
|
hop_windows_amd64.zip
|
|
hop_windows_arm64.zip
|
|
checksums.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## After the first release
|
|
|
|
- Create a Gitea-hosted Homebrew tap/cask fed by immutable release URLs and
|
|
checksums; do not publish placeholder hashes.
|
|
- Add Windows package-manager metadata only after the Windows artifact has been
|
|
tested on a real signed build.
|
|
- Establish release retention, package cleanup, rollback, and incident-response
|
|
procedures for the custom Gitea instance.
