#!/bin/sh
# In a git/autoconf/automake-enabled project with a NEWS file and a version-
# controlled .prev-version file, automate the procedure by which we record
# the date, release-type and version string in the NEWS file.  That commit
# will serve to identify the release, so apply a signed tag to it as well.
VERSION=2012-08-01.09 # UTC

Usage: $ME [OPTION...] VERSION RELEASE_TYPE

Run this script from top_srcdir to perform the final pre-release NEWS
update in which the date, release-type and version string are
recorded.  Commit that result with a log entry marking the release,
and apply a signed tag.  Run it from your project's top-level
directory.

Requirements:
- you use git for version-control
- a version-controlled .prev-version file
- a NEWS file, with line 3 identical to this:
$noteworthy_stub

Options:
  --branch=BRANCH     set release branch (default: $branch)
  -C, --builddir=DIR  location of (configured) Makefile (default: $builddir)
  --help              print this help, then exit
  --version           print version number, then exit

EXAMPLE:
To update NEWS and tag the beta 8.1 release of coreutils, I would run this:

  $ME 8.1 beta
