NAME

Module::Release::SVK - Use SVK instead of CVS with Module::Release

VERSION

This document describes Module::Release::SVK version 0.0.1

SYNOPSIS

In .releaserc

release_subclass Module::Release::SVK

In your subclasses of Module::Release:

  use base qw(Module::Release::SVK);

  use Module::Release::SVK;

DESCRIPTION

Module::Release::SVK subclasses Module::Release, and provides its own implementations of the check_cvs() and cvs_tag() methods that are suitable for use with an SVK repository rather than a CVS repository.

These methods are automatically exported in to the callers namespace using Exporter.

check_cvs()

Check the state of the SVK repository.

cvs_tag()

Tag the release in local SVK repository.

The approach is fairly simplistic. svk info is run to extract the SVK URL for the current directory, and the first occurence of '/trunk/' in the URL is replaced with '/tags/'. We check that the new URL exists, and then svk copy is used to do the tagging.

Failures are non fatal, since the upload has already happened.

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

Module::Release::SVK requires no configuration files or environment variables.

DEPENDENCIES

See Module::Build
