||
| ## Reconfiguring the Build System ## | ||
|
|
||
| If you have edited any of the files used by the build system, such as the | ||
| `Makefile.am` files, you will need to reconfigure your source. | ||
|
|
||
| To reconfigure the source run the following command from the root directory: | ||
|
|
||
| autoreconf && ./confgure | ||
|
|
||
| ## Checking In Changes ## | ||
|
|
||
| If your source directory has been configured or built you will need to clean | ||
| the generated files before checking into the repository by running the | ||
| following command: | ||
|
|
||
| make local-clean | ||
|
|
||
| If everything was successful you should now have a pristine checkout. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Preparing For Distribution ## | ||
|
|
||
| To build the source for distribution you should then run the following command: | ||
|
|
||
| ./configure && make distcheck | ||
|
|
||
| If everything was successful you should see a `zip` file and/or a `tar.gz` file | ||
| sitting in the root directory ready for distribution. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Release Checklist ## | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Update the `README` file with important information. | ||
| 2. Update the `NEWS` file with change information. | ||
| 3. Update the `acinclude.m4` file with version information. |
