The old install method will now use conf/VERSION instead of src/VERSION everywhere.
The new one, if you use the builtin make file to "make branch.tar" will also create just such a file
gl-install copies
- the initial rc file to ~/.gitolite.rc if it doesn't exist
- src and hooks to GL_ADMINDIR
Make it aware of a package-based setup sequence, where the above two
change somewhat; see code diff.
This should be the last bit of change needed to prepare gitolite setup
so that a distro package maintainer does not have to fiddle too much
with code inside.
(What remains is docs, and a setup script for server-side use, to
replace the latter part of easy install)
The admin repo's post-update hook needs to know where $GL_ADMINDIR is,
and we had a weird way of doing that which depended on gl-install
actually munging the hook code.
We also always assumed the binaries are in GL_ADMINDIR/src.
We now use an env var to pass both these values. This removes the weird
dependency on gl-install that the post-update hook had, as well as make
running other programs easier due to the new $GL_BINDIR env var.
You can now add your own hooks into src/hooks/ and they get propagated
along with the update hook that is present there now. Please read the
new section in the admin document, and make sure you understand the
security implications of accidentally fiddling with the "update" script.
This also prompted a major rename spree of all the files to be
consistent, etc. Plus people said that the .sh and .pl suffixes should
be avoided (and I was feeling the same way). I've also been
inconsistent with that "gl-" prefix, so I cleaned that up, and the 00-
and 99- were also funny animals.
Time to get all this cleaned up before we get 1.0 :)
So these are the changes, in case you're looking at just the commit
message and not the diffstat:
src/pta-hook.sh -> src/ga-post-update-hook
src/conf-convert.pl -> src/gl-conf-convert
src/00-easy-install.sh -> src/gl-easy-install
src/99-emergency-addkey.sh -> src/gl-emergency-addkey
src/install.pl -> src/gl-install
src/update-hook.pl -> src/hooks/update
