Task #1481
openBibisect repositories
0%
Description
We want to have our own TDF-provided Bibisect repositories.
The scope of this ticket is to regularly produce Bibisect repositories for
- Windows
- Linux
- Mac OS X
with all the flavors and branches we need. These should be produced by TDF staff, on officially TDF-hosted machines. The platform should be maintained by infra, while the Bibisect repositories should be managed by assignee.
How to setup a new repository ( using lode )
- ./setup --help
- ./setup --new bibisect/coreXX
- mv /dev/bibisect/coreXX to bibisect/
- copy autogen.input from previous builds to the current one
- copy old .bibisect/loXX to .bibisect/loYY
- edit the new loYY
- go to jenkins - new item - copy existing item ( lo_bibisect_XX_Y_Y )
How to setup a new repository in gerrit
- https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/admin/create-project/
- Write project name ( use these as reference --> https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/admin/projects/?filter=bibisect )
- Change rights to 'Inherit from Dev-ACL-Template'
- ssh gerrit@gerrit.libreoffice.org p 22 cd /srv/repositories/<new repository name>
- copy config file from another existing repository
- Edit the config file
- touch git-daemon-export-ok
- git remote update ( While the origin repo is not being built )
Use this script < https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/contrib/dev-tools/tree/bibisect/buildReleasesRepository.sh > for building bibisect-linux-64-releases

Moving to Cloph's pile, but un-milestoned yet - let's revisit next year if we still need this and who carries it out; so no action required from your side for the moment, Cloph

I'm already taking care of creating the bibisect repositories. it's done using jenkins. Assigning it to myself

Checking back on this one - all going well, anything blocking and/or required? Or all going well?

All going well. Bisect repositories are updated once a week in average

With the upcoming gerrit upgrade/refactoring I'd like to take the opportunity to consolidate that too. Details were agreed upon with Xisco Fauli Tarazona on IRC:
- Bibisect repos are no longer advertised at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/admin/projects (nor served by the gerrit service). Using gerrit for the
bibisect-*
projects are overkill because 1/ no change set are ever submitted; 2/ they clutter the project list; 3/ the ACLs are trivial (read access is enabled for everyone, push are forbidden for everyone).
- Having all bibisect repos in a self-contained drive makes it easier to move elsewhere (for instance on the box currently hosting https://dev-downloads.libreoffice.org).
- Furthermore I'm not at all comfortable about opening remote shell access to service users like
gerrit
.
The bibisect repos are now available for anonymous `git fetch` from https://bibisect.libreoffice.org/$PLATFORM-$VERSION.git . For backward compatibility one can still fetch the active bibisect repositories (6.3 to 6.5) from the old insecure URLs git://gerrit.libreoffice.org/bibisect-$PLATFORM-$VERSION.git , however git:// support will not be added to >6.5 repositories, and will be entirely deprecated once 6.5 bibisect repositories are no longer active. Xisco updated the Wiki page to reflect these changes.
The new workflow involves a dedicated user and hostname: `ssh bibisect@bibisect.libreoffice.org`
.
- Creation:
$ git init --bare --quiet ~bibisect/repositories/linux-64-6.5.git $ git -C ~bibisect/repositories/linux-64-6.5.git remote add -f \ --mirror=fetch origin ssh://username@hostname/path/to/repo.git Updating origin […]
(No need to create the magic file git-daemon-export-ok
anymore. Repositories under ~bibisect/repositories
are all public, and all exposed to git-http-backend(1), which runs as an unprivileged dynamic user. Don't put any private world-readable repositories in there!)
- Update (while the remote is not being built)
$ git -C ~bibisect/repositories/linux-64-6.5.git remote update Fetching origin […]
(This is for a fetch-based workflow, like was done up to now. For a push-based workflow one would instead need to push to ssh://bibisect@bibisect.libreoffice.org/~/repositories/linux-64-6.5.git from the original repository.)
Updated by Guilhem Moulin almost 5 years ago
Or better, creation + fetch in a single command:
$ git clone --bare --mirror --template ~bibisect/templates \ ssh://username@hostname/path/to/repo.git \ ~bibisect/repositories/linux-64-6.5.git Cloning into bare repository… […]
Either way, please use --template=
as above (I forgot it in msg#17) in your creation recipe. There is not much in the template right now, but should the need to tune configuration options arise, the use --template=
will allow us to do it in a future-proof fashion.
Is there a wiki page where I could write these commands Xisco Fauli Tarazona? Or should I edit this Redmine ticket instead?
Updated by Beluga Beluga almost 5 years ago
Guilhem: I suggest replacing the contents of this wiki page with what is the current reality: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bibisect/Implementation
(For some reason that page was translated to Danish, but I don't think we should be translating these sorts of docs)
Updated by Guilhem Moulin almost 5 years ago
Thanks, I wasn't of that page. Nothing in there was invalidated by the recent refactoring, but I suppose it'd make sense to complete it with the various snippets from this ticket.

Thanks, done. It subsumes part of the workflow in this ticket (repository creation and update).

linux-64-releases has been updated up to 7.0.3.1
