GROK-MANIFEST − Create manifest for use with grokmirror
grok−manifest [opts] −m manifest.js[.gz] −t /path [/path/to/bare.git]
Call grok−manifest from a git post−update or post−receive hook to create the latest repository manifest. This manifest file is downloaded by mirror slaves (if newer than what they already have) and used to only clone/pull the repositories that have changed since the mirror's last run.
−−version
show program's version number and exit
−h, −−help
show this help message and exit
−m MANIFILE, −−manifest=MANIFILE
Location of manifest.js or manifest.js.gz
−t TOPLEVEL, −−toplevel=TOPLEVEL
Top dir where all repositories reside
−l LOGFILE, −−logfile=LOGFILE
When specified, will put debug logs in this location
−c, −−check−export−ok
Honor the git−daemon−export−ok magic file and do not export repositories not marked as such
−n, −−use−now
Use current timestamp instead of parsing commits
−p, −−purge
Purge deleted git repositories from manifest
−x, −−remove
Remove repositories passed as arguments from the manifest file
−y, −−pretty
Pretty−print the generated manifest (sort repos and add indentation). This is much slower, so should be used with caution on large collections.
−w, −−wait−for−manifest
When running with arguments, wait if manifest is not there (can be useful when multiple writers are writing to the manifest file via NFS)
−i IGNORE, −−ignore−paths=IGNORE
When finding git dirs, ignore these paths (can be used multiple times, accepts shell−style globbing)
−v, −−verbose
Be verbose and tell us what you are doing
The examples assume that the repositories are located in /repos. If your repositories are in /var/lib/git, adjust both −m and −t flags accordingly.
Initial manifest generation:
/usr/bin/grok−manifest −m /repos/manifest.js.gz −t /repos
Inside the git hook:
/usr/bin/grok−manifest −m /repos/manifest.js.gz −t /repos −n `pwd`
To purge deleted repositories, use the −p flag when running from cron:
/usr/bin/grok−manifest −m /repos/manifest.js.gz −t /repos −p
You can also add it to the gitolite's "rm" ADC using the −x flag:
/usr/bin/grok−manifest −m /repos/manifest.js.gz −t /repos −x $repo.git
To troubleshoot potential problems, you can pass −l parameter to grok−manifest, just make sure the user executing the hook command (user git or gitolite, for example) is able to write to that location:
/usr/bin/grok−manifest −m /repos/manifest.js.gz −t /repos \ −l /var/log/git/grok−manifest−hook.log −n `pwd`
