Add tags to the project

[freephile]

The project is run by tags and releases. There have been no tags or releases since the project was cloned to the NASA organization. So, create a tag "35.0.0" for the GRC-ATF branch, then create a new tag 39.0.0 for the REL1_39 branch and create a release for the merged product.

We want tags on the development branch because meza --version looks for tags with sudo git --git-dir=/opt/meza/.git describe --tags which is currently failing because there are zero tags. We can prevent the failure by using the --always option (that would return the latest git hash) but we really need to start using tags and releases.

git describe --tags returns
[closest-tag]-[num_commits-between_tag_and_head]-[sha1_short]

For my (local workstation) clone of my fork of the NASA repo (so my origin is freephile/meza), I added the enterprisemediawiki repo as a third remote, and fetched all the tags. Then I pushed the tags into my repo.

git remote add emw https://github.com/enterprisemediawiki/meza.git
git remote add nasa https://github.com/nasa/meza.git
git fetch emw --tags
git push origin --tags

Then I could sudo git fetch origin --tags in my VirtualBox environments, and describe works now.

[userx@localhost meza]$ sudo git --git-dir=/opt/meza/.git describe --tags
31.12.0-368-gcd9359f

But, the canonical (NASA) repo still needs new tags to represent the 35.x version as well as the pending 39.x version.

Solved

You can now see the long list of tags I created for the 35.x series as well as a new tag for the beginning of the REL1_39 branch and milestone.

[userx@localhost meza]$ git log --oneline --decorate --tags --no-walk

I pushed these tags up into this repo.

[freephile]

create a new tag 39.0.0 for the REL1_39 branch and create a release for the merged product.

Creating an issue to track this work.

• Create annotated tag for 1.39
• Create Release Notes for 1.39
• Create a Release for 1.39
