Hi,

I need to release some fixes for e4 Resources project in order to enable Maven/Tycho build. I have already managed to push them into the Git master branch http://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.e4.resources.git/ .

But what next? The e4 Build page http://wiki.eclipse.org/E4/Builds seems to be pretty old. Is there an up-to-date description of the Releng/Build process for the projects that reside in Git?

You're right, that page is pretty old.  There is no current documentation of our build process, except it's based on the work in http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform-releng/Platform_Build and the build is controlled by the http://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.e4.releng.git/tree/org.eclipse.e4.builder/scripts/buildCBI.sh#n193 script

We have an auto-tagging process that tags and builds whatever is in master, so the releng tools are no longer needed.

The process would be to set up poms in your project, similar to the ones in http://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.e4.tools.git/tree/pom.xml

Before running, you need to install the e4 eclipse-parent pom in your local repo, like in the buildCBI.sh script.

Later,
PW
