22 After setting up a directory as a Git repo, use tito to manage the tags
23 and builds. A simple workflow may look like:
24 1. Save user preferences as described in titorc(5)
26 2. Initialize a .tito directory
28 3. Test
30 1. Make changes to source
32 2. Use git to commit changes
34 3. Build: tito build --rpm --test
36 4. Finalize a release
38 1. Tag: tito tag
40 2. Push: git push && git push $ORIGIN $TAG
42 3. Build: tito build [OPTIONS]
44
46 tito init
47 This will create a top-level metadata directory called ".tito/" and
48 commit it to git. This directory will store tito’s configuration and
49 package metadata on a per branch basis. It will be filtered out when
50 creating .tar.gz’s.
51 Note
53 Your spec file should list the source as %{name}-%{version}.tar.gz
54 tito tag [options]
56 By default, tito will tag by bumping the rpm version (i.e. we bump the
57 Z in X.Y.Z). If you’d prefer to bump the package release instead
58 (normally should just be used for changes to the spec file or patches
59 applied within it), you can change the tagger class in .tito/tito.props
60 to ReleaseTagger. This will affect all packages in this git branch; if
61 you’d prefer to do this on a per-package basis you can do so in a
62 package specific tito.props.
63 -h, --help
65 show this help message and exit
66 --debug

69 variable)
70 --offline
72 do not attempt any remote communication (avoid using this please)
73 -o OUTPUTDIR, --output=OUTPUTDIR
75 Write temp files, tarballs, and RPMs to OUTPUTDIR. Create
76 sub-directories as needed by rpmbuild(8). (default /tmp/tito)
77 --tag-release
79 Deprecated, no longer required.
80 --keep-version
82 Use spec file version/release exactly as specified in spec file to
83 tag package.
84 --use-version=USE_VERSION

90 --no-auto-changelog
92 Don’t automatically create a changelog entry for this tag if none
93 is found
94 --accept-auto-changelog

97 --auto-changelog-message=MESSAGE
99 Use MESSAGE as the default changelog message for new packages
100 --changelog=MESSAGE
102 Use MESSAGE as the changelog when tagging, this can be specified
103 every time a package is tagged. Useful when needing to generate
104 custom changelogs. This will override the auto generated changelog.
105 -u, --undo
107 Undo the most recent (un-pushed) tag.
108 Note
110 Tito will create automatic changelog from git commits. Unless you
111 specify one of auto options, tito will open text editor and allow
112 you to edit the text. Editor is by default. This can be changes by
113 environment variable EDITOR.

166 build via mock.
167 --arg=BUILDER_ARGS
169 Custom arguments specific to a particular builder. (key=value)
170 --scl=COLLECTION

220 releasers.conf, --all-starting-with=yum will run only these
221 targets, and ignore any others.)
222 --scratch
224 Perform a scratch build in Koji. Can be specified using environment
225 variable SCRATCH set to 1 as well.
226 --yes

248 /tmp/tito)
249 --untagged-diffs

253 need of a re-tag.
254 --untagged-commits
256 Print out the list for all packages with changes between their most
257 recent tag and HEAD. Useful for determining which packages are in

259
261 Offline lets you potentially do builds you can’t reproduce, normally we
262 check that the tag you’re building exists in the remote repo. If it
263 hasn’t been pushed, it’s quite easy to do a build that will result in a
264 checksum that is no longer the same. This is something you should try
265 to avoid.
266
268 Build and install a test package from the latest code in current git
269 HEAD
270 tito build --rpm --test -i
271 Overriding the default builder to build via mock instead
