Autopublish

[adriaanm]

Automatically stage a pgp-signed release of version $ver on sonatype when HEAD is tagged as 'v$ver'.

The following sensitive info is encrypted using the private key associated to this repo by Travis:

• private key to sign the release
• auth info for sonatype

The only way to test this on Travis is to merge and tag, so I did. Turns out you can't pass environment variables between script steps? publishPrep should have exported publishVersion and extraTarget, but they were not seen in https://travis-ci.org/scala/scala-xml/jobs/42939070

Got it to work with some more tweaking! To publish a release, create one (with a tag) on github, wait for CI to do its thing and close & promote repo on sonatype!

bravo!

Great stuff!

I guess it would be good to mention lack of release process in the README. We should really brag about it! 😼

It needs a little more polish, including docs, I know :-) Also, it needs to publish only when running on the supported version of Java.
