Release Instructions

Release

1. Cherry-pick Issue

Create a cherry-pick issue to allow the team and community to comment on the release contents.

  1. Locate the previous cherry-pick issue

  2. Get the hash of the most recent commit still available on the previous issue

  3. Generate new issue contents:

    $ git checkout master # Ensure we are on master
$ git log --pretty=format:"%an: %s %h"  [COMMIT_HASH]..HEAD

  4. Create a new issue on GitHub with the title [VERSION] cherry-pick (e.g. v3.0.2 cherry-pick) and the generated commits as content.

2. Cherry-pick to Release Branch

Once the team and community is satisfied with the commits to be cherry-picked, cherry-pick them into the appropriate release branch. There should be a single release branch per minor release (e.g. release-3.0, release-3.1, etc.)

  1. Checkout the release branch and cherry-pick commits

    $ git checkout relesae-3.0
$ git cherry-pick [COMMIT_IDS...]

  2. Hope for few merge conflicts!

    A merge conflict during cherry-picking usually means the commit is based on another commit that should be cherry-picked first. In case of a merge conflict, you can undo the cherry-picking by git cherry-pick --abort and revisit the list of commits to make sure the prior commits are cherry-picked as well.

  3. Once done cherry-picking, push the release branch to ensure the branch can build and all tests pass.

3. Prepare the Release

v2

v2 releases still depend on the previous repository name (github.com/argoproj/argo). To release for v2, make a local clone of the repository under the name argo:

$ pwd
/Users/<user>/go/src/github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows
$ cd ..
$ cp -r argo-workflows argo
$ cd argo

Then follow all the normal steps. You should delete the argo folder once the release is done to avoid confusion and conflicts.

Preparing the release

Before v3.1

  1. Releasing requires a clean tree state, so back-up any untracked files in your Git directory.

    Only once your files are backed up, run:

     $ git clean -fdx  # WARNING: Will delete untracked files!

  2. To generate new manifests and perform basic checks:

    $ make prepare-release -B VERSION=v3.0.3

  3. Once done, push the release branch and ensure the branch is green and all tests pass.

    $ git push

  4. Publish the images and local Git changes (disabling K3D as this is faster and more reliable for releases):

    $ make publish-release K3D=false VERSION=v3.0.3

  5. Wait 1h to 2h.

v3.1 and after

Create and push a release tag:

git tag v3.1.0
git push origin v3.1.0

The release will then be done automatically by a Github action.

4. Ensure the Release Succeeded

Before v3.1

  1. Check the images were pushed successfully. Ensure the GitTreeState is Clean.

    $ docker run argoproj/argoexec:v3.0.3 version
$ docker run argoproj/workflow-controller:v3.0.3 version
$ docker run argoproj/argocli:v3.0.3 version

  2. Check the correct versions are printed. Ensure the GitTreeState is Clean.

    $ ./dist/argo-darwin-amd64 version

  3. Check the manifests contain the correct tags (search for v3.0.3): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3.0.3/manifests/install.yaml

  4. Check the manifests apply: kubectl -n argo apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/v3.0.3/manifests/install.yaml

v3.1 and after

No action needed.

5. Release Notes

In upgrading, detail:

  • All breaking changes are listed with migration steps
  • The release notes identify every publicly known vulnerability with a CVE assignment

The change log is automatically generated by a Github action.

Before v3.1

The release title should be the version number (e.g. v3.0.3) and nothing else.

Use hack/release-notes.md as the template for your new release notes.

v3.1 and after

This is done automatically by a Github action.

6. Upload Binaries and SHA256 Sums To GitHub

Before v3.1

After running make publish-release, you will have the zipped binaries and SHA256 sums in your local.

Open them with:

$ open dist

Upload only the zipped binaries (.gz suffix) and SHA256 sums (.sha256 suffix) to GitHub. There should be 12 uploaded files in total.

v3.1 and after

This is done automatically by a Github action.

7. Update Stable Tag

Before v3.1

If this is GA:

Update the stable tag

git tag -f stable
git push -f origin stable

Check the manifests contain the correct tags: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/stable/manifests/install.yaml

v3.1 and after

Delete the stable tag.

git tag -D stable
git push origin :stable

8. Update Homebrew

If this is GA:

Update the Homebrew formula.

export HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN=$GITHUB_TOKEN
brew bump-formula-pr argo --version 3.0.3

Check that Homebrew was successfully updated after the PR was merged:

brew upgrade argo
/usr/local/bin/argo version

9. Update Java SDK

If this is GA:

Update the Java SDK formula.

git clone [email protected]:argoproj-labs/argo-client-java.git
cd argo-client-java
make publish VERSION=v3.0.3

Check package published: https://github.com/argoproj-labs/argo-client-java/packages

10. Publish Release

Before v3.1

Finally, press publish on the GitHub release. Congrats, you're done!

v3.1 and after

This is done automatically by a Github action.
