-# Alfresco SDK release process
-
-This document describes how to release the Alfresco SDK using the automated CI pipeline introduced in [ACS-12085](https://hyland.atlassian.net/browse/ACS-12085).
-
-Releases are performed on **`master`** via GitHub Actions. The pipeline uses [`maven-release-slim`](https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-build-tools) from Alfresco build-tools and a GitHub App installation token to create **verified** commits and tags.
-
-## Version conventions
-
-### Alpha versions (dot notation)
-
-Alpha releases **must** use a dot between `A` and the alpha number:
-
-| Correct | Incorrect |
-|---------|-----------|
-| `4.17.0-A.1` | `4.17.0-A1` |
-| `4.17.0-A.2` | `4.17.0-A2` |
-
-Use this format in `RELEASE_VERSION`, Git tags, and Maven coordinates for all new alpha releases.
-
-### Next development version (`-SNAPSHOT`)
-
-`DEVELOPMENT_VERSION` **must** include the `-SNAPSHOT` suffix. This is the version written to all POMs after the release completes.
-
-| Correct | Incorrect |
-|---------|-----------|
-| `4.17.0-A.3-SNAPSHOT` | `4.17.0-A.3` |
-| `4.18.0-SNAPSHOT` | `4.18.0` |
-
-This applies to both alpha and GA release cycles.
-
-## Overview
-
-| Step | Trigger | CI job | Result |
-|------|---------|--------|--------|
-| Alpha / Nexus release | `[release]` in commit message | `release` | Deploy to Alfresco Nexus, Git tag, verified bot commits |
-| GA Maven Central publish | `[publish]` in commit message | `publish` | Publish to Maven Central (GA versions only) |
-
-Alpha releases (for example `4.17.0-A.2`) are deployed to **Nexus only**. GA releases (for example `4.17.0`) can additionally be published to **Maven Central** using `[publish]`.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Merge your changes to **`master`** (or use a PR merged to `master`).
-- Ensure CI tests pass. Do not use `[skip tests]` on a release commit.
-- Confirm the repository has the `GH_APP_ENGINEERING_CONTRIB_CLIENT_ID` variable and `GH_APP_ENGINEERING_CONTRIB_PRIVATE_KEY` secret configured (DevOps).
-- Protected branches must allow verified commits from the engineering-contrib GitHub App.
-
-## Configure release versions
-
-Version numbers are **not** stored in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`. They live in [`.github/release-versions.yml`](../.github/release-versions.yml):
-
-```yaml
-env:
-  global:
-    - RELEASE_VERSION=4.17.0-A.2
-    - DEVELOPMENT_VERSION=4.17.0-A.3-SNAPSHOT
-```
-
-| Variable | Purpose | Example (alpha) | Example (GA) |
-|----------|---------|-----------------|--------------|
-| `RELEASE_VERSION` | Version to release and tag | `4.17.0-A.2` | `4.17.0` |
-| `DEVELOPMENT_VERSION` | Next development version written to POMs after release (must end with `-SNAPSHOT`) | `4.17.0-A.3-SNAPSHOT` | `4.18.0-SNAPSHOT` |
-
-Update both values in the **same commit** that triggers the release. The GitHub App bot does **not** modify this file; you must update it again before the next release.
-
-> **Note:** Release versions are kept in `.github/release-versions.yml` (not in workflow files) so the GitHub App token does not require `workflows: write` permission.
-
-## Alpha release (Nexus)
-
-Example: release `4.17.0-A.3` when `master` is on `4.17.0-A.3-SNAPSHOT`.
-
-1. Update [`.github/release-versions.yml`](../.github/release-versions.yml):
-
-   ```yaml
-   - RELEASE_VERSION=4.17.0-A.3
-   - DEVELOPMENT_VERSION=4.17.0-A.4-SNAPSHOT
-   ```
-
-2. Commit and push to **`master`** with `[release]` in the commit message, for example:
-
-   ```text
-   [release] Alfresco SDK 4.17.0-A.3 alpha
-   ```
-
-3. Wait for the CI workflow to finish. The `release` job runs only when:
-   - Tests succeed
-   - The branch is `master`, `fix/**`, or `feature/**`
-   - The commit message contains `[release]`
-   - The commit message does **not** contain `[no release]`
-
-### What happens automatically
-
-When the `release` job succeeds, CI will:
-
-1. Set all POM versions to `RELEASE_VERSION`
-2. Deploy artifacts to Alfresco Nexus
-3. Create a **verified** bot commit for the release version
-4. Create a Git tag named exactly `RELEASE_VERSION` (for example `4.17.0-A.3`)
-5. Set all POM versions to `DEVELOPMENT_VERSION`
-6. Create a **verified** bot commit for the next development version
-
-You should **not** manually create Git tags or manually bump POM versions for the release and post-release commits; the pipeline handles that.
-
-### After an alpha release
-
-On `master` you should see:
-
-- Git tag: `4.17.0-A.3` (plain version string from `RELEASE_VERSION`)
-- Two new **Verified** commits from the engineering-contrib bot
-- Root POM version: `4.17.0-A.4-SNAPSHOT`
-- Artifacts on Alfresco Nexus for `4.17.0-A.3`
-
-## GA release and Maven Central
-
-For a GA release (version matching `major.minor.patch` with no suffix):
-
-1. Update [`.github/release-versions.yml`](../.github/release-versions.yml), for example:
-
-   ```yaml
-   - RELEASE_VERSION=4.17.0
-   - DEVELOPMENT_VERSION=4.18.0-SNAPSHOT
-   ```
-
-2. Push to **`master`** with both keywords in the **same** commit message:
-
-   ```text
-   [release][publish] Alfresco SDK 4.17.0
-   ```
-
-   To publish to Maven Central as part of the GA release, include `[publish]` in the **same** commit message as `[release]` so the workflow can publish the tagged `RELEASE_VERSION`.
-
-   A standalone `[publish]` commit (without `[release]`) will publish only if the POM version on that commit is already GA. After a release run, `master` is typically bumped to `DEVELOPMENT_VERSION` (`-SNAPSHOT`), so a later `[publish]` commit will be skipped by `check_version`.
-
-The `check_version` job verifies the version matches `^\d+\.\d+\.\d+$` before Maven Central publish runs. Alpha, SNAPSHOT, RC, and other suffixed versions are skipped.
-
-## Commit message keywords
-
-| Keyword | Effect |
-|---------|--------|
-| `[release]` | Run the automated Nexus release |
-| `[publish]` | Attempt Maven Central publish (GA only) |
-| `[no release]` | Skip the release job even if `[release]` would otherwise match |
-| `[skip tests]` | Skip tests (do **not** use on release commits) |
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-| Symptom | Likely cause |
-|---------|----------------|
-| Release job skipped | No `[release]` in commit message, wrong branch, or tests failed/skipped |
-| App token step fails | GitHub App credentials not configured on the repository |
-| Verified commit rejected | Branch protection or App permissions |
-| Tag already exists | `RELEASE_VERSION` was released before |
-| Maven Central skipped | Non-GA version, or missing `[publish]` |
