HTCondorWiki: Git New Branch Rules

 
 {subsection: Fix the version string in your new branch}
 
+{subsubsection: cmake world order}
+
+The version string and pre-release tag can be found in the top level /CMakeLists.txt. Look for these lines:
+
+{code}
+# Condor version info
+set(VERSION "7.5.6")
+
+# Set PRE_RELEASE to either a string (i.e. "PRE-RELEASE-UWCS") or OFF
+set(PRE_RELEASE "PRE-RELEASE-UWCS")
+#set(PRE_RELEASE OFF)
+{endcode}
+
+If you're making a feature branch ("V7_5_6-Neat-things-branch", change PRE_RELEASE to something appropriate ("set(PRE_RELEASE "PRE-RELEASE-UWCS-NEAT-THINGS"). Do _not_ include whitespace in the PRE_RELEASE field.
+
+If you're making a branch for a release, be sure to update the VERSION.  When you are building actual release candidates, comment out the PRE_RELEASE line and uncomment the "set(PRE_RELEASE OFF)".

 Once you've got a workspace that has the sticky-bit set pointing to
    your new branch, you should modify the version string in
