Release Process

update translations (ping wumpus, Diapolo or tcatm on IRC)
see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/translation_process.md#syncing-with-transifex

###update (commit) version in sources

bitcoin-qt.pro
contrib/verifysfbinaries/verify.sh
doc/README*
share/setup.nsi
src/clientversion.h (change CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE to true)

###tag version in git

git tag -a v0.8.0

###write release notes. git shortlog helps a lot, for example:

git shortlog --no-merges v0.7.2..v0.8.0

##perform gitian builds

From a directory containing the bitcoin source, gitian-builder and gitian.sigs

export SIGNER=(your gitian key, ie bluematt, sipa, etc)
export VERSION=0.8.0
cd ./gitian-builder

Fetch and build inputs: (first time, or when dependency versions change)

mkdir -p inputs; cd inputs/
wget 'http://miniupnp.free.fr/files/download.php?file=miniupnpc-1.6.tar.gz' -O miniupnpc-1.6.tar.gz
wget 'http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1c.tar.gz'
wget 'http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz'
wget 'http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.6.tar.gz'
wget 'ftp://ftp.simplesystems.org/pub/libpng/png/src/libpng-1.5.9.tar.gz'
wget 'http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/qrencode-3.2.0.tar.bz2'
wget 'http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/boost/boost/1.50.0/boost_1_50_0.tar.bz2'
wget 'http://releases.qt-project.org/qt4/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3.tar.gz'
cd ..
./bin/gbuild ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/boost-win32.yml
mv build/out/boost-win32-1.50.0-gitian2.zip inputs/
./bin/gbuild ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/qt-win32.yml
mv build/out/qt-win32-4.8.3-gitian-r1.zip inputs/
./bin/gbuild ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/deps-win32.yml
mv build/out/bitcoin-deps-0.0.5.zip inputs/

Build bitcoind and bitcoin-qt on Linux32, Linux64, and Win32:

./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian.yml
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION} --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian.yml
pushd build/out
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip *
mv bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip ../../
popd
./bin/gbuild --commit bitcoin=v${VERSION} ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win32.yml
./bin/gsign --signer $SIGNER --release ${VERSION}-win32 --destination ../gitian.sigs/ ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win32.yml
pushd build/out
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip *
mv bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip ../../
popd

Build output expected:

linux 32-bit and 64-bit binaries + source (bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip)
windows 32-bit binary, installer + source (bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip)
Gitian signatures (in gitian.sigs/${VERSION}[-win32]/(your gitian key)/

repackage gitian builds for release as stand-alone zip/tar/installer exe

Linux .tar.gz:

unzip bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip -d bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux
tar czvf bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux.tar.gz bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux
rm -rf bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux

Windows .zip and setup.exe:

unzip bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip -d bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32
mv bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32/bitcoin-*-setup.exe .
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32.zip bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32
rm -rf bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32

Perform Mac build:

OSX binaries are created by Gavin Andresen on a 32-bit, OSX 10.6 machine.

qmake RELEASE=1 USE_UPNP=1 USE_QRCODE=1 bitcoin-qt.pro
make
export QTDIR=/opt/local/share/qt4  # needed to find translations/qt_*.qm files
T=$(contrib/qt_translations.py $QTDIR/translations src/qt/locale)
python2.7 share/qt/clean_mac_info_plist.py
python2.7 contrib/macdeploy/macdeployqtplus Bitcoin-Qt.app -add-qt-tr $T -dmg -fancy contrib/macdeploy/fancy.plist

Build output expected: Bitcoin-Qt.dmg

###Next steps:

Code-sign Windows -setup.exe (in a Windows virtual machine) and OSX Bitcoin-Qt.app (Note: only Gavin has the code-signing keys currently)
upload builds to SourceForge
create SHA256SUMS for builds, and PGP-sign it
update bitcoin.org version make sure all OS download links go to the right versions
update forum version
update wiki download links
update wiki changelog: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Changelog

Commit your signature to gitian.sigs:

pushd gitian.sigs
git add ${VERSION}/${SIGNER}
git add ${VERSION}-win32/${SIGNER}
git commit -a
git push  # Assuming you can push to the gitian.sigs tree
popd

After 3 or more people have gitian-built, repackage gitian-signed zips:

From a directory containing bitcoin source, gitian.sigs and gitian zips

export VERSION=0.5.1
mkdir bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian
pushd bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian
unzip ../bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip
mkdir gitian
cp ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-downloader/*.pgp ./gitian/
for signer in $(ls ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}/); do
 cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert
 cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert.sig ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert.sig
done
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip *
cp bitcoin-${VERSION}-linux-gitian.zip ../
popd
mkdir bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian
pushd bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian
unzip ../bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip
mkdir gitian
cp ../bitcoin/contrib/gitian-downloader/*.pgp ./gitian/
for signer in $(ls ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-win32/); do
 cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-win32/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert
 cp ../gitian.sigs/${VERSION}-win32/${signer}/bitcoin-build.assert.sig ./gitian/${signer}-build.assert.sig
done
zip -r bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip *
cp bitcoin-${VERSION}-win32-gitian.zip ../
popd
