Making a release

To make a new release, just follow these instructions:

Before commiting the last version to GIT, ensure that quality release requirements are met.
Do the actual commit: git commit
Create an annotated tag: git tag -a v1.2.0 -m 'version 1.2.0'
Push the contents of the repository to server: git push; git push --tags

Go to a temporary folder: cd ~/tmp
Clone the repository from server: git clone git://github.com/marmolejo/zet.git
Create the ChangeLog file: cd zet/; git log v1.1.0..v1.2.0 > ChangeLog-1.2.0
Get the microcode: cd cores/zet/rtl; ../bin/micro2rom < altera/microcode.txt
Build the BIOS: cd src/bios; wmake; cp bios.rom ..; wmake clean; mv ../bios.rom .
Build bitfiles by opening QPF files in Quartus and Start Compilation. When done, close all instances of Quartus II.
Meanwhile, copy flash bitfiles to bin/ directories:

cd ~/zet/scr/boards; for i in $(ls); do cp $i/bin/flash_bios.sof ~/tmp/zet/boards/$i/bin; done

git checkout boards/altera-de0/syn/kotku.qsf boards/altera-de1/syn/kotku.qsf boards/altera-de2-115/syn/kotku.qsf

cd ~/tmp/zet/boards
for i in $(ls)
do 
  mv $i/syn/kotku.{sof,pof} .
  rm -fR $i/syn
  git checkout $i/syn
  mv kotku.* $i/syn
done

cd ..
mv zet zet-1.2.0
tar cjvf zet-1.2.0.tar.bz2 zet-1.2.0
cd zet-1.2.0/
zip -r ../zet-1.2.0.zip *
cd ..

Before uploading, compile the design and BIOS and test it to see that it's working.
