We have fixed a few bugs and added enhancements since the release of

The following is intended as a helper and refresher for reviewers.

Validating a release candidate
==============================

These guidelines are NOT complete.

Requirements: Git, Java, and Maven.

You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows.

1a) Download and decompress the source archive from:

https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/build-plugin/1.16.1-RC1/source

1b) Check out the RC tag from git (optional)

This is optional,  as a reviewer must at least check source distributions.

git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-build-plugin.git
--branch commons-build-plugin-1.16.1-RC1
commons-build-plugin-1.16.1-RC1
cd commons-build-plugin-1.16.1-RC1

2) Checking the build

All components should include a default Maven goal, such that you can
run 'mvn' from the command line by itself.

2) Check Apache licenses

This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page,
which you then must check.
This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can
check it with:

mvn apache-rat:check

3) Check binary compatibility

This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page,
which you then must check.
This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can
check it with:

mvn verify -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp

4) Build the package

This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can
check it with:

mvn -V clean package

You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE reply.
To gather OS information from a command line:
Windows: ver
Linux: uname -a

4b) Check reproducibility

To check that a build is reproducible, run:

mvn clean verify artifact:compare -DskipTests
-Dreference.repo=https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/staging/
'-Dbuildinfo.ignore=*/*.spdx.json'

Note that this excludes SPDX files from the check.

5) Build the site for a single module project

Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of packaged.

mvn site
Check the site reports in:
- Windows: target\site\index.html
- Linux: target/site/index.html
