Preparing to start Automation
- Blassey created the 14_0_Beta relbranch off the MOBILE140_2012061216_RELBRANCH, since MOBILE140_2012061216_RELBRANCH is branded for official (release). The 14_0_Beta relbranch was created off the changeset previous to changing branding.
- Axel created the fennec14_beta_b8.2 l10n milestone; we could do the same through the milestone creation page.
- Got signoff/go from Axel + Alex.
- Landed config files: default production including the shipped l10n changesets.
- Tagged buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, tools
- updated+reconfiged bm13
- Ran release sanity:
PYTHONPATH=. ../bin/python ../tools/buildbot-helpers/release_sanity.py -u aki -V 14.0b8 --branch mozilla-beta --build-number 2 \ -c release-fennec-mozilla-beta.py --products fennec --l10n-dashboard-version 14_beta_b8.2 --dryrun localhost:9001 2>&1 | tee aki.out
- Re-ran without dryrun.
Tag
- I was slightly worried about the relbranch only existing on mozilla-beta, but encountered no problems.
