Releasing with TITO

Tito is a tool for managing RPM based projects using git for their source code repository.

Tito documentation: https://github.com/dgoodwin/tito

Initial Setup

Initialize .tito directory:

$ tito init

Setup .tito/releasers.conf

Create sections for all releasers and branches you want to build for, for example:

[fedora-rawhide]
releaser = tito.release.FedoraGitReleaser
branches = master

Create spec file in the project's root dir.

Make sure the spec is commited to git to make next steps work.

Test Builds

Run local test build

$ tito build --rpm --offline --test

For initial rpmbuild / spec sanity testing you can append --rpmbuild-options='--nodeps' to avoid installing unnecessary deps on your system.

Production Builds

Run a test build first

Tag build

$ tito tag

Release

This creates commits in dist-git and starts builds in koji.

$ tito release <target> [target] ...

or

$ tito release --all
