Eclipse distro tag now created separately from publishing

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Spring · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Spring Tools for Eclipse changes its release process so the distribution tag is created independently of the publishing step.

The Spring Tools build now creates the Eclipse distro tag as its own step, decoupled from publishing [1]. Previously, tagging was tied to the publish action; going forward the tag can be produced without triggering a release. This gives release teams control over when the tag lands relative to the actual publish, which matters for coordinating milestone or GA builds across repositories.

BoykoAlex committed the change with the note: "Create eclipse distro tag separately from publishing" [1].
