−"""Release tag string for display in templates (and possibly other uses).

+
−Steps (currently done by hand, but too be scripted in the future) to make
+
−a release:
+
−
+
−1) set RELEASE_TAG in this file to a "release candidate" release string that
+
−   ends in "rc"
+
−
+
−2) commit this file *by itself* in its own commit
+
−
+
−3) use 'svn cp' to create a release branch in /branches/ with exactly the
+
−   same name as the contents of the RELEASE_TAG string
+
−
+
−4) set RELEASE_TAG back to None in /trunk/
+
−
+
−
+
−To finalize a release candidate in a release branch for a push to the live
+
−web site:
+
−
+
−1) in the release branch, change RELEASE_TAG to remove the trailing "rc"
+
−
+
−2) commit this file in the release branch *by itself* in its own commit
+
−
+
−3) use 'svn cp' to create a tag in /tags/ with exactly the same name as the
+
−   contents of the RELEASE_TAG string
+
−
+
−4) put the release branch in a state where it is ready for additional patches
+
−   after the tag by setting the end of the RELEASE_TAG string to "p0"
+
−
+
−
+
−To re-release a previously-tagged release branch after a patch for a push to
+
−the live web site:
+
−
+
−1) increment the "patch suffix" of the RELEASE_TAG string to the next integer
+
−   (for example, "p0" becomes "p1", so the first tagged patch release will
+
−   always be "p1", not "p0", which is just a placeholder)
+
−
+
−2) (same as #2 for a release candidate)
+
−
+
−3) (same as #3 for a release candidate)
+
−
+
−4) (there is no step 4)
