Tekton CLI Repo CI/CD

We dogfood our project by using Tekton Pipelines to build, test, and release the Tekton Pipelines cli!

This directory contains the Tasks and Pipelines that we use for releasing the cli.

TODO(tektoncd/pipeline#538): In tektoncd/pipeline#538 or tektoncd/pipeline#537 we will update Prow to invoke these Pipelines automatically, but, for now, we invoke them manually.

Release Pipeline

You can use the script ./release.sh that will do everything that needs to be done for the release.

The first argument to release.sh is the release version. It needs to be in a format like v1.2.3, which is basically SEMVER.

If it detects that you are doing a minor release, it will ask you for some commits to be cherry-picked in this release. Alternatively, you can provide the commits separated by a space to the second argument of the script. You do need to make sure to provide them in order from the oldest to the newest.

If you give the * argument for the commits to pick up, it would apply all the new commits.

The release script will ask you to provide a GitHub token with appropriate priviledges as documented under the release process prerequisites.

It will then use your Kubernetes cluster with Tekton and apply what needs to be done for running the release.

Finally it will launch the tkn cli that you have installed locally to show the logs.

Debugging

You can define the env variable PUSH_REMOTE to push to your own remote (i.e which point to your username on github).

You need to be careful if you have write access to the Homebrew repository since it will do a release there. Until we can find a proper fix, release.sh generates a commit that removes the brews data and cherry-picks it in the script.
