# patches welcome :-)
These are places where I could use some help, with hints about how you would
go about it. In addition, any of the items in [dev-status][] are up for
grabs, if you wish to jump in. But let me know before you start, and how you
plan to go about it.
## #pw2 rsync
The crux of the old rsync ADC was an access check to a repo whose name starts
with EXTCMD. g2 would treat repos whose names start with EXTCMD as "don't
create this repo". g3 makes no such distinctions, but you can get the same
effect by using a repo group name that does not exist:
repo @rsync-set1
...rules...
and check that in the script. (It might mean adding one more function to
Gitolite::Easy but that's... easy!)
## #pw1 converting non-openssh pubkeys automatically
Gitolite's [triggers][] has can be used to fix this. Here's pseudo-code:
chdir $(gitolite query-rc -n GL_ADMIN_BASE)/keydir
for each *.pub file in this directory and its subdirectories
detect its format and convert it
# just overwrite it; the original is saved in git anyway
Let's say the program is called "convert-non-openssh-keys". You send it to me
and I add it to src/commands/post-compile/. Then I update the default rc file
to look at least like this instead
POST_COMPILE =>
[
# 'post-compile/convert-non-openssh-keys',
'post-compile/ssh-authkeys',
...
...
],
making sure to place it *before* ssh-authkeys, and anyone who needs it can
just uncomment it.
Done!
