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-git...
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.
