For each ikiwiki there will be needed: 2 public accessible group writable git repos - setup and content, somewhere under $poject-home, linked from /git,... How to create them? - Ask overseers to have them created for us. - Or create them and have them linked from /git, /git/SOURCEWARE-GITWEB,...; ...and optionally added to gitweb's project_list file? - Is everything supposed to be there? ...and setfacl-ed...? and a group writable setup and working directories. These will be checked out from the above git repos. As generated content, should this be under /sourceware/projects or is there another preferred location? And few more related questions: Shall I send you script(s) for */sourceware/infra/bin/*? ...and if so, as ikiwiki's auto.setup is interactive, is command line preferred, or is interactive accepted as well? I already tweaked it a bit to ask more questions, and if we agree on some standard locations, I can make it to ask less or none if possible. May I ask, why sourceware does not use gitweb's automatic repo search? Would it mean less work for you, if groups had group writable directory under /git, /sourceware/www/sourceware/htdocs/git/,...? Also structure under /git is mostly flat, is that strongly preferred way? E.g. it does make scripts simpler - no need to handle directories when linking. Exception to the rule: cygwin-apps/. Would group writable directories with repo search be useful and save you some work? -- Martian
