Provide hosting place for open source projects
Contact Information
Owner: Fedora Infrastructure Team
Contact: #fedora-admin, sysadmin-hosted
Location: Serverbeach
Servers: hosted1, hosted2
Purpose: Provide hosting place for open source projects
Description
fedorahosted.org can be used to host open source projects. It provides the following facilities:
- An scm for maintaining the code. The currently supported scm's include Mercurial, Git, Bazaar, or SVN. Note: There is no cvs
- A trac instance, which provides a mini-wiki for hosting information and also provides a ticketing system.
- A mailing list
How to setup a new hosted project
new project request template. (Requires Fedora Account)
- Create source group in Fedora Account System (<scm>project should be the group name)
- Create source repo
- Log into hosted1
- Create new project space:
$ sudo /usr/local/bin/hosted-setup.sh <project name> <project admin> <scm type>
- <project name> must use the same case as the scm repo
- You're likely to end up with 'Command failed: columns username, action are not unique' - this can be safely ignored as this only tries to tell you that you are giving admin access to a person already having admin access
- If a mailing list is desired:
How to import data from a cvs repo into git repo
Often users request their git repos to be imported from an existing cvs repo. This is a two step process as follows:
git-cvsimport -v -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.fedoraproject.org/cvs/docs -C <dir> <cvs_module>
sudo git clone --bare --no-hardlinks </pathto/cvsimported/repo> /git/<git_dir>.git/
Example:
git-cvsimport -v -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.fedoraproject.org/cvs/docs -C translation-quick-start-guide translation-quick-start-guide sudo git clone --bare --no-hardlinks translation-quick-start-guide/ /git/translation-quick-start-guide.git/
Git notes
Note that our git repos disallow non-fast-forward pushes by default. This default makes the most sense, but sometimes, users understand the impact of doing so, but still wish to make such a push.
To enable this temporarily, edit the config file inside of the git repo, and make sure that receive.denyNonFastforwards is set to false. Make sure to reenable this once the user has finished their push.
