How to publish a new release

Prerequisites:

  1. You know How to build

  2. You cloned this Wiki Git repository:

    git clone [email protected]:anjlab/eclipse-tapestry5-plugin.wiki.git

  1. Use Find and Replace in all projects to change all occurrences of the current version with a new value
  2. Delete features, plugins, artifacts.jar, and content.jar files from the update-site folder
  3. Right-click update-site/site.xml and select Plug-in Tools -> Build Site
  4. Run ./update-site/package.sh, this should produce 2 files and 1 folder in the update-site folder: artifacts.jar, content.jar, <version-name>/
  5. Move above 2 files and 1 folder with its content to the wiki's update-site folder, overwriting artifacts.jar and content.jar files
