[RFC] Userspace and xfstests releases

[RFC] Userspace and xfstests releases

[Rich Johnston]

I was planning on a xfsdump and xfstests release this week before I go 
on vacation. Any objections?

Release versions for xfsprogs are still being discussed. Are there any 
more comments on this subject?

Thanks
--Rich

Currently xfstests is not released, should this be changed?

I will wait until I return on Jan 2 to release xfsprogs.

Here is one of the threads discussing this.

Christoph were you saying you create xfsprogs branches?

Is there a consensus on version names/branches for xfsprogs?

I suggest a branch directly off of 3.1.11 release, and then we can troll the
log between refs/tags/3.1.11 and master for bugfixes.

e.g. git checkout -b for-3.1.12 refs/tags/3.1.11

And then push it up to oss.

Just my 2c.

Regards,
	Ben

Agreed - we're not really ready for a 3.2.0 release yet. I also
think that we'll need a couple of weeks to test any 3.1.12 branch
that is made before it can be released, too.

Cheers,

Dave.

Next time Cc me if you want a quick personal answer :)

I offered playing release manager for another 3.1.x release off a
branch, but it seems like no one supported that idea.  The offer
still stands if we get a consensus to do the branch release.
