Hi,
Adam Šamalík took dist-git files from fedora-infra ansible.git. He separated what belongs
to dist-git itself and what is
Fedora specific and with cooperation of Dan Mach and Palo Babinčák he created upstream for
dist-git:
https://github.com/release-engineering/dist-git
This is first attempt and request for comments.
The changes from ansible.git version are described here:
https://github.com/release-engineering/dist-git/blob/master/changes.txt
and he extracted some code to be configuration driven:
https://github.com/release-engineering/dist-git/blob/master/configs/dist-...
Feel free to experiment with this project and we are looking for your questions and
comments.
I have one question thou:
There is no license information in files header but two files:
scripts/httpd/upload.cgi - GPLv1
scripts/dist-git/pkgdb_sync_git_branches.py - GPLv2+
Everything else is without license.
Can I assume that we can realease the code under GPLv2+?
The author of upload.cgi seems to be Kevin F. - Kevin, are you willing to change license
your file to GPLv2+ so we have
uniform license across all files?
Future plans:
1) Listen to your initial feedback and do alternations according to your feedback
2) After license clarification, announce this project to Red Hat and CentOS rel-engs and
ask them to merge their
changes of dist-git to this upstream.
3) Get this package into Fedora distribution
4) Change Fedora dist-git server to use this package.
....
10) Enjoy the benefits of common upstream.
