In the pom, using HTTPS developer connection
<scm>
<developerConnection>scm:git:https://github.com/tobyweston/simple-excel.git</developerConnection>
</scm>and running,
mvn release:prepare -Dusername=bub -Dpassword=secret
will update the pom and create a tag in SCM.
Where password is the personal access token generated from GitHub as opposed to your regular password used in the web UI.
After running the prepare, run the perform step
mvn release:perform
to checkout the newly created tag, build to release and deploy it (using the mvn deploy). This will use the distributionManagement from the pom.
For local deployment to robotooling.com's Maven repository, clone the repository before running this step.
git clone [email protected]:tobyweston/robotooling.git
git checkout gh-pages
...
perform the release process (inc deploy)
...
./update.sh
When things go wrong with the prepare step, rollback using
mvn release:rollback -Dusername=bub -Dpassword=secret
although you'll have to delete any tags manually
git tag -d simple-excel-1.x
git push origin :simple-excel-1.x
