21.2 Tools for uploading release tarballs

build-aux/gnupload

This program is a user-friendly way to upload a release tarball to one of the GNU servers (ftp.gnu.org or alpha.gnu.org). It implements the interface described in https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Automated-FTP-Uploads.html.

build-aux/ncftpput-ftp

This is a helper program that mimics the ncftpput program used by gnupload. If you want to use gnupload but don’t have ncftp installed, copy this file into your $PATH, renaming it to ncftpput.
