I still have a bit more work on this logging PR, and I don't think it's critical to get it in this release

thanks Eric.

I'm going to start release prep a bit later today once I get my own change https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/10758 merged. does anyone have anything else they'd like to get in for this release?

OK my changes are in, feel free to release in that regard, thanks!

https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/10767 @hundreds-father-404

I'm having trouble successfully running the

./build-support/bin/release.sh

script. it seems like it can't successfully download

@hundreds-father-404: thanks a lot for getting 1.30.1rc1 out!

herculean effort

You’re welcome! Will be doing 1.30.1rc2 today. JP is working on porting to v2 plugins, and can’t use 2.0 until that’s done. Chicken vs. egg problem. He found a small bug in the Target API

Pex 2.1.16 is released: + https://pypi.org/project/pex/2.1.16/ + https://github.com/pantsbuild/pex/releases/tag/v2.1.16

going to cut a

2.0.0b0

release today

we're waiting on https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/10785 ( a revert ) to get merged before cutting the release. I might end up doing it in the evening tonight

updated https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/10787 and will merge when green

fyi 2.0.0b0 is not showing as “latest release” on GitHub page: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/releases

Hello! Looks like there have been a bunch of releases this week - are we looking for another?

Thoughts on this email for the b1 release?

The second beta for the 2.0.x series is now available on PyPI.

This brings a couple of bug fixes, including better signal-handling with ctrl-c and Pantsd invalidating less often. Some links:
* 2.0 Upgrade guide
* Detailed changelog

Some folks have been wondering: when will the stable 2.0.0 release be? We're tracking the project here. tl;dr: the main features remaining are Protobuf plugins like GRPC and adding back an improved version of the `bundle` goal. The rest is documentation and polish on things like error messages for typos on the command line.

Generally, even though it's technically a "beta", 2.0.0b1 provides a more polished experience than 1.30.1. For context: if we had not forked 2.0, we would have released 1.34.0 by now. 

Thank you to this release's contributors:

  17 Eric Arellano
   8 Greg Shuflin
   6 Stu Hood
   3 Asher Foa
   2 Benjy Weinberger
   1 Tom Dyas

Thank you for everyone's feedback so far! Please let us know how we can to upgrade!

It looks like https://pypi.org/project/pantsbuild.pants.contrib.python.checks/#history is missing 1.30.0 and 1.30.1.

hey folks! the progress toward 2.0.x has been tracked in https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/projects/18, with things that should maybe block cutting the first rc marked

2.0.0 blocker

(see https://groups.google.com/g/pants-devel/c/wtmY_hxbdsQ/m/FXET5mh4BQAJ for some more context). some investigation has happened on all of the remaining maybe-blocking issues, and it’s seemingly likely that we should cut the rc soon. possibly this week even

Pex 2.1.17 is released: + https://pypi.org/project/pex/2.1.17/ + https://github.com/pantsbuild/pex/releases/tag/v2.1.17

I'll be updating Pants here shortly then prepping a Pants release.

Pants 2.0.0b3 is released: + https://pypi.org/project/pantsbuild.pants/2.0.0b3/ + https://groups.google.com/g/pants-devel/c/mnczhDtYfiU/m/aXI45yBGCAAJ

Should today be 2.0.0rc0 or 2.0.0b4? All the feature work should be done within this release, once I land gRPC. I believe there are a few bugs we know about: • some Pex issues John has been working on • Ctrl-c issues Greg is working on

Pex 2.1.18 is released: + https://pypi.org/project/pex/2.1.18/ + https://github.com/pantsbuild/pex/releases/tag/v2.1.18

Pants 2.0.0rc0 is released! + https://pypi.org/project/pantsbuild.pants/2.0.0rc0/ + https://groups.google.com/g/pants-devel/c/5CvgzMLsenE/m/wIXXHao7AQAJ

@hundreds-father-404 https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/10974 <- bugfix for rc1

2.0.0rc1 is released: + https://pypi.org/project/pantsbuild.pants/2.0.0rc1/ + https://groups.google.com/g/pants-devel/c/5CvgzMLsenE/m/_uHtumtsAwAJ Thanks @orange-beach-75711 and @jolly-midnight-72759 for the feedback on rc0!

Planned release email:

Hey, what’s the thinking on 2.0.1 vs. 2.1.0? a) Are we going to still do 3-4 dev releases for 2.1.x? We would have normally done 2 releases already. b) Do we plan to treat 2.0.1 differently than normal? For most releases, we don’t end up having a patch release.

I see rc2 and rc3 have been released but not formally announced here. Giving them a shoutout (may their shelf life be short): * https://pypi.org/project/pantsbuild.pants/2.0.0rc2/ * https://pypi.org/project/pantsbuild.pants/2.0.0rc3/
