Xen devel - Apr 2013 - Erroneous tag 4.2.2-rc2

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I made a mistake while tagging 4.2.2-rc2 and applied the tag to the
wrong git commit.

I have deleted the wrong tag from xenbits and put the right tag in its
place.  The right commit for 4.2.2-rc2 is this one:

    commit 321e742eab7a36ffd18ac64f246f341015a007e0
    Author: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>
    Date:   Fri Apr 12 13:41:19 2013 +0200

        update Xen version to 4.2.2-rc2

If you have fetched the wrong tag, you may need to persuade your git
to update to the new one.  You can do this with
   git tag -d 4.2.2-rc2
   git fetch --tags
or something, I think.

Both the wrong tag and the right tag were signed, unfortunately.

It is possible that this will cause some trouble in the Mercurial
mirror.  Anthony, can you comment ?

I have now updated our release checklist to have explicit runes for
making tags in xen.git, which ought to prevent this mistake happening
again.

Apologies,
Ian.

(I will sign this mail with the Xen tree PGP key to confirm that this
is all genuine.)

I don''t know. Unfortunately, I never check how the git->mercurial
was
handling tags.

I will check that later.
