[platform-releng-dev] New tagging procedure from M4

["Sravan K Lakkimsetti" <sravankumarl@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone,

 

There is a change in the milestone build process. The source code used for the milestone build gets tagged with a unique tag like S4_7_0_M4. This process used to be there only for aggregator repo. Now I have extended it to all repos used for the build.

 

One big advantage with this is no more synchronized tagging activity at the end of release (Like Bug 495458 - Tag Neon (4.6) release (after 6/22)). Since this is done programmatically and no manual intervention it is less error prone.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Sravan
