Check Release Information

After a creating a release, you should find the following set of files (all paths are shown relative to the directory where you originally invoked make release):

nst-${RELEASE}/nst-${RELEASE}.tar.gz

A snapshot of the source code which was tagged earlier and used to build the ISO image(s). This file will need to be uploaded to SourceForge.

nst-${RELEASE}/nst-${RELEASE}.${HWARCH}.iso

The ISO image of the full NST distribution. This file is typically uploaded to SourceForge.

nst-${RELEASE}/nst-minimal-${RELEASE}.${HWARCH}.iso

The ISO image of the minimal NST distribution (for CD installation followed by yum install nst-live). This file is not typically uploaded to SourceForge as there are very few systems left that can not boot from DVD or USB.

nst-${RELEASE}/release-notes-${RELEASE}.txt

The release notes text file to store at SourceForge. This file will need to be reviewed and possibly tweaked prior to uploading to SourceForge.

As an example, here is what the files looked like after the 2.13.0-1713 build:
