To branch the current ftp tree and isos for a milestone, log in to download.opensuse.org as mirror user and run:
distro_hardlink_copy 42.2-Current 42.2-RC1
Remove x bit for others from the directory so only staging mirrors can pull it but it's not visible on download.o.o
on release day every once in a while scan for mirrors as mirror user:
mb scan -a -d /distribution/leap/42.2-RC1 -j4
In the morning add the x bit again to make the content show up and give mirrors time to catch up adding the x bit.
At release time:
- change the symlink to the new milestone
distro_symlink 42.2 42.2-RC1
- sync the staging are to the area shown in download.opensuse.org
publish_opensuse
You may want to add '-n' before to check what it's doing and not deleting files
