From a43686b9847c19efebd1f15519083436ac155a8e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joey Hess Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2015 13:49:54 -0400 Subject: Simplify setup process for a ssh remote. Now it suffices to run git remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the remote is automatically initialized for use by git-annex, where before the git-annex branch had to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync. Note that this involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is using an old version, the manual push is still needed. Implementation required git-annex-shell be changed, so configlist can autoinit a repository even when no git-annex branch has been pushed yet. Unfortunate because we'll have to wait for it to get deployed to servers before being able to rely on this change in the documentation. Did consider making git-annex sync push the git-annex branch to repos that didn't have a uuid, but this seemed difficult to do without complicating it in messy ways. It would be cleaner to split a command out from configlist to handle the initialization. But this is difficult without sacrificing backwards compatability, for users of old git-annex versions which would not use the new command. --- Remote.hs | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'Remote.hs') diff --git a/Remote.hs b/Remote.hs index d425fc918..57a22f36b 100644 --- a/Remote.hs +++ b/Remote.hs @@ -20,6 +20,7 @@ module Remote ( remoteTypes, remoteList, + remoteList', gitSyncableRemote, remoteMap, remoteMap', -- cgit v1.2.3
