This document outlines the steps to get Gitorious into Fedora and EPEL.

High Level Steps and Issues

1. Get all Gitorious' dependencies into Fedora.
   • Several Rubygems.
   • mod_passenger. RHBZ#470696
2. Get Gitorious into Fedora.
   • Bundled libraries: Gitorious bundles several things, including Rails. Upstream bug for Rails
   • Bundler issues: If we use different Gem versions than upstream, Bundler wants to write to Gemfile and Gemfile.lock. We must patch Gemfile
   • Init scripts: Create equivalent systemd unit files for Fedora & RHEL 7.
   • Ruby version: Upstream master works with Ruby 1.8; verify Ruby 1.9.x compatability. Same for newer rails.

EPEL

1. Get all Gitorious's dependencies into EPEL.
   • Rails. I don't have experience packaging Rails, and there's been questions about which version to put into EPEL.
   • Various Rubygems must be branched for EPEL.
   • mod_passenger. RHBZ#470696
2. Get Gitorious into EPEL.
   • Ruby 1.8

Dependencies

• - The package is missing
• - The package is present and versions differ from upstream
• - The package is present and versions match upstream
