${antlib.shortname} http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/antlibs/${antlib.shortname}/trunk promote.xml is used to automatically move an antlib from sandbox to proper. To do this you must have the following setup: - antlibs working copy (from the base directory *NOT all-trunks*) - antlibs sandbox working copy (again from the base directory) - the 'to be promoted' antlib should have the proper svn structure: <to-be-promoted> - trunk - tags - branches (optionally) When you have the correct setup, run: ant -f promote.xml manually-todo from within your antlib sandbox dir and follow the instructions. The AntLib directory has been moved and the all-trunks externals have been modified. Your next steps are: - check that everything looks like you want it to - svn commit inside ${antlib.proper.root} - svn commit inside this directory - modify the site to move the sandbox antlib to proper
