Description Werner Lemberg 2012-12-18 13:15:44 UTC
I want to put (some of) the freetype.freedesktop.org web stuff into a git repository, and I think a project git repository is better than a private one so that others can contribute also.

Thanks in advance!
Comment 1 Werner Lemberg 2012-12-18 13:18:56 UTC
Ah, and I want to automatically update freetype.freedesktop.org using the `post-update' git hook.  Are there guidelines (or precendences) how to do so?
Comment 2 Werner Lemberg 2013-01-10 19:23:06 UTC
Is anybody here?  It would be *really* helpful to have a git repository here...
Comment 3 Werner Lemberg 2013-01-19 07:04:21 UTC
Ping!
Comment 4 Tollef Fog Heen 2013-01-21 20:37:29 UTC
Doing it as a post-commit hook is unfortunately not really particularly supported, due to how the security architecture is set up.

I can create a git repository on git.fdo for you, which you can pull from in a cron job, if that works for you?  Else, you can have a git repo on annarchy, which is also the web server and then use a post-commit hook to update.  Please tell me what you'd prefer and set the status of the bug to something else than NEEDINFO when replying.
Comment 5 Werner Lemberg 2013-01-21 21:39:47 UTC
Have a git repository on annarchy sounds nice.  So please set something up, thanks!
Comment 6 Werner Lemberg 2013-01-21 21:41:17 UTC
Ah, a minor nit: I want to give some FreeType developers write access to the repository; in case it is easier to do that on git.fdo, please do it that way.

Comment 8 Werner Lemberg 2013-04-04 21:13:18 UTC
Tollef, is there *any* chance that something will happen soon?
Comment 9 Tollef Fog Heen 2013-04-14 20:04:53 UTC
Hi

sorry about the delay here.

I've created the git repo on git.fdo now.  Can you set up the git pull cronjob yourself?
Comment 10 Werner Lemberg 2013-04-14 20:50:20 UTC
Thanks a lot!  Where exactly is the repository located?  I've just tried

  git push --force --all ssh://git.freedesktop.org/git/freetype-webpage

and the response was

  fatal: '/git/freetype-webpage' does not appear to be a git repository
Comment 11 Tollef Fog Heen 2013-04-15 08:20:56 UTC
Try ssh://git.freedesktop.org/git/freetype/freetype-webpage
Comment 12 Werner Lemberg 2013-04-15 08:37:28 UTC
Alas, same error:

> git push --force --all ssh://git.freedesktop.org/git/freetype/freetype-webpage
fatal: '/git/freetype/freetype-webpage' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Comment 13 Tollef Fog Heen 2013-04-15 08:53:11 UTC
Gah, typos-r-us, try:

ssh://git.freedesktop.org/git/freetype/freetype-web

which should work.
Comment 14 Werner Lemberg 2013-04-15 16:30:19 UTC
This works, thanks a lot!
Comment 15 Werner Lemberg 2013-04-15 17:58:10 UTC
Still one issue: `freetype-web' doesn't appear on the cgit web page.
Comment 16 Tollef Fog Heen 2013-04-17 20:52:23 UTC

It's there now.
Comment 17 Werner Lemberg 2013-04-17 21:18:25 UTC
Thanks!  Now I'm going to announce this on the FreeType mailing lists.
