Cut a Saiku release via Gitflow — version bump, release branch, PR to main, tag, back-merge, and post-release chores. Use when asked to release, tag, or publish a new Saiku version.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Cut a release

Publishing is entirely CI-driven. Pushing a `v*` tag runs `release.yml`, which publishes the fat-JAR and dist zip (GitHub release assets), module jars (GitHub Packages), the Docker image (`ghcr.io/spiculedata/saiku:<version>`) and the npm embed package. Never `mvn deploy` locally.

1. **Bump the version on a branch off `development`.** Every reactor pom carries the literal release version (non-SNAPSHOT).
   ```bash
   mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=X.Y.Z -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
   ```
   `versions:set` misses `saiku-bom/pom.xml`, so fix that by hand. Check with `git grep -n '<version>OLD' -- '*pom.xml'`.
2. **Update `CHANGELOG.md`** with a section for the release, and fold in any `docs/release-notes-*-draft.md`. Merge this to `development` via PR.
3. **Cut `release/X.Y.Z` off `development` and push it.** `release-prep.yml` runs the `mvn verify` gate.
4. **Open a PR from `release/X.Y.Z` to `main` and merge it once green.**
   > `gh pr merge` can silently no-op while a required check is pending. Before tagging, confirm `main` actually advanced: `git fetch && git log -1 origin/main` should show the release merge and the new version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add spiculedata/saiku/cut-release@sha256:1adece660e7c1087

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.8c1f45f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
