[Bf-committers] Blender 2.74 RC1 release AHOY!

[Sergey Sharybin]

Hi everyone,

Let's process with the release and do RC1 tonight.

Information for platform maintainers:

- Branch: blender-v2.74-release
- Branch hash: 4aa51096a7f7c6b0bcc348aa9d683d96c2ff7ffe
- Locale hash: c651e63a9a537624f639950f3127a1dee29205d0
- Addons hash: cf842d8bb7b0033ca4fa99f7ebedcbd3810fd274

Suggested name: blender-2.74-rc1-<platform>

Wouldn't go into details about how to doublecheck all the hashes, you
should be familiar with this now. If you still prefer to have instructions
about that please poke me in IRC.

Just to remind, it is a REAL release candidate. Meaning, if we do a fix, we
backport it to the branch and do another RC. If no fixes are to be
backported (or if they're really tiny small) we do final release.

Also please note Git is considered frozen for until all the builds are up
(approx ~24hrs from now on). No commits are allowed to the master branch
for until unfreeze message is sent t this ML (expect this tomorrow
afternoon-ish).
