1038421 - tag deletion off m-r for Fennec 31.0b10 build1

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Attachment: fennec tagging log

On July 14, we accidentally launched Fennec 31.0b10 build 1 off of mozilla-release instead of mozilla-beta.

We may hit problems on merge day unless we clean up the relbranch + tags.

default:
http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/rev/e6aee77687d3

relbranch:
http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/rev/7c651d4dab1c
http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/rev/d03f2ba619f1

FENNEC_31_0b10_RELEASE
FENNEC_31_0b10_BUILD1
MOBILE310b10_2014071417_RELBRANCH

We need to be careful of vcs-sync, but I think we're explicitly excluding relbranches+release tags from gecko{-dev,-projects,.git}


If this ends up causing issues on Sept 1, this wiki may be of use:

[14:57]	<nthomas>	lsblakk, Sylvestre: the branch was put in wrong for Fennec-31.0b10-build1, release instead of beta
[14:58]	<lsblakk>	gah. my bad - i should have looked closed
[14:58]	<lsblakk>	closer
[14:58]	<nthomas>	seeing if I can stop tagging in time
[14:59]	* lsblakk	will re-submit
[14:59]	<lsblakk>	(waiting for an OK from nthomas)
[14:59]	<nthomas>	it's already on to locales
[14:59]	<lsblakk>	so i have to do it as build 2?
[15:00]	<nthomas>	yes
[15:00]	<lsblakk>	k - anything else to watch for or can i put it in and submit now?
[15:02]	<nthomas>	stopped tagging, it tagged mozilla-releases, and as far as en-GB in the locales
[15:02]	<aki>	i recommend deleting the old tags or we may have issues next merge day
[15:02]	<aki>	(on m-r)
[15:03]	<lsblakk>	wait - that was Fennec b10 going off of mozilla-release?
[15:03]	<nthomas>	yes, it should have been m-b
[15:03]	<lsblakk>	ya
[15:03]	<lsblakk>	crap
[15:03]	<aki>	for tag deletion? yes
[15:03]	<nthomas>	aki: locales won't need it ?
[15:03]	<nthomas>	tag cleanup I mean
[15:03]	<aki>	nthomas: not sure, we do upload all locales on release merge day
[15:04]	<aki>	might be worth a bug at least, even if we don't do it right away
[15:04]	<aki>	blocking https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1029851 . it might be easiest sooner though
[15:04]	<aki>	maybe i should file instead of talking
[15:04]	<nthomas>	you probably know the most

For build 2, we have MOBILE310b10_2014071418_RELBRANCH FENNEC_31_0b10_BUILD2 FENNEC_31_0b10_RELEASE 

so the only actual conflicting tag is the _RELEASE tag.

And FENNEC_31_0b10_RELEASE is tagged on MOBILE310b10_2014071417_RELBRANCH , and shouldn't conflict with the one on MOBILE310b10_2014071418_RELBRANCH .

I think we're in the clear here.  Leaving linked to the Sept 1 merge day bug just in case.
