Rebasing the kernel involves the following steps:
### Kernel Patches
### ARK Kernel Patches
1. Rebase the kernel patches: ``git rebase <upstream-tag> ark-patches``.
2. If a patch fails to apply and the fix is clear, go ahead and fix it. Otherwise, file an [issue](https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/issues) for each patch that does not apply with the commit hash and conflict details so it can be resolved later.
3. Create a branch for this revision of the kernel patches. This is useful when comparing the state of the patches between versions: ``git branch ark/patches/<upstream-tag>``
4. Import the latest Fedora Rawhide patches from the Fedora [dist-git](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kernel): ``grep ^Patch $FEDORA_DISTGIT/kernel.spec | awk -vdistgit="$FEDORA_DISTGIT" '{print distgit $2}' | xargs git am``
3. If rebasing onto a tag, create a branch for this revision of the kernel patches. This is useful when comparing the state of the patches between versions: ``git branch ark/patches/<upstream-tag>``.
4. ``git push -f upstream ark-patches``
### Fedora Patches
1. ``git checkout fedora-patches``
2. ``git reset --hard <upstream-tag>``
3. Import the latest Fedora Rawhide patches from the Fedora [dist-git](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kernel): ``grep ^Patch $FEDORA_DISTGIT/kernel.spec | awk -vdistgit="$FEDORA_DISTGIT" '{print distgit $2}' | xargs git am``
4. ``git push -f upstream fedora-patches``

## Building
After a release branch has been prepared, it's time to build it. This guide assumes you have Koji and/or Brew installed and properly configured. It also assumes you've authenticated and have permissions to build.
### ARK
1. Run ``make rh-dist-git``. This will create a directory in /tmp. The directory name will be printed at the end, it should end with /kernel . It may look like this: /tmp/RHEL8.2018-10-08.HXzpLdpW/kernel. The next time you are building dist-git, you may edit redhat/Makefile.rhpkg and use cache to make the process faster. This is done by setting RHDISTGIT_CACHE:=<path2distgit> where path2distgit is the path to previous make rh-dist-git output.
2. ``cd /tmp/RHEL-8*/kernel``
3. ``vim ../changelog ../diff``. Confirm the changelog includes the changes for this release and looks reasonable.
4. ``git diff --cached``. Final check to make sure things look correct.
5. ``git commit -a -s -F ../changelog``
6. ``rhpkg push``
7. ``rhpkg build --target temp-ark-rhel-8-test --skip-nvr-check``
8. ``rhpkg tag -F ../changelog``
9. ``git push origin <tag>``
