(→‎Add new release files: Oops. the previous problem with the checksums was regenerating them all, not clobbering the old ones.)

If you are uploading the first release of a project to Xiph.org, then first create a release directory in the svn repository. You can do this using remote svn commands (rather than checking out the entire Xiph.org release archive):
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>svn mkdir https://svn.xiph.org/releases/PROJECTNAME</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
Then check that directory out locally:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>svn co https://svn.xiph.org/releases/PROJECTNAME PROJECTNAME-releases</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
== Add new release files ==
 
−
 
 
−
Add tarballs etc. to your local checkout of the release directory:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>cd PROJECTNAME-releases</tt>
 
−
  <tt>svn add PROJECTNAME-x.x.x.tar.gz</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
Then, generate MD5 and SHA1 checksums for these files:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>md5sum PROJECTNAME-x.x.x.tar.gz >> MD5SUMS</tt>
 
−
  <tt>sha1sum PROJECTNAME-x.x.x.tar.gz >> SHA1SUMS</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
Check that the only modifications to the checksums are for the new files:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>svn diff</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
If everything is ok (and the checksums for other files have not changed), commit:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>svn commit</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
== Update [http://www.xiph.org/downloads/ http://www.xiph.org/downloads/] ==
 
−
 
 
−
The downloads page is in the normal svn repository for www.xiph.org:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>svn co https://svn.xiph.org/websites/xiph.org/downloads/</tt>
 
−
 
 
−
Update it with your release tarball name and checksum, and commit.
 
−
 
 
−
== Mail appropriate lists ==
 
−
 
 
−
Mail your release notes to appropriate project lists. You may also want to send news to:
 
−
 
 
−
  <tt>Linux Weekly News &lt;lwn@lwn.net&gt;</tt>
 
−
  <tt>comp.os.linux.announce &lt;cola@stump.algebra.com&gt;</tt>

Sebastian Pipping has a script to add tarballs and update the appropriate web pages for libxspf:

[https://trac.xiph.org/browser/releases/xspf/update.sh update.sh]. You may want to adapt this for your project.
