Hi.
I read it as you want to setup a git repository. I'm not sure exactly which
version of git is required for the "--mirror" option, but I know it it
present in
1.6.* version of Git. If someone has more accurate information about the
version that introduced this feature, please let me know, and I will update
the mirroring page (
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/howtos/How_to_mirror_DragonFly_with_Git/ ).
It is very important to use a git-version which supports "--mirror", and the
update-repo script,
so that old branches are removed, and the repo presented to the client is as
correct as possible.
(I tried and failed quite a bit, not having this piece of information).
Cheers,
DB.
OK! Thanks, git is selfcontained, yum conflicts so git could renew
itself after little adjustments
Usage: /usr/bin/git-clone [--template=<template_directory>]
[--reference <reference-repo>] [--bare] [-l [-s]] [-q] [-u
<upload-pack>] [--origin <name>] [--depth <n>] [-n] <repo> [<dir>]
Got local git 1.6.4 and remote 1.5.3.3 (above) to yum upgrade, just
small trick (remote) looking old Fedora:
yum update git
Repository base is listed more than once in the configuration

seems certain git requires 1.6 for mirror or that mirror option is an
alias backcompatible to 2 prior gears. Can mirror via 2 vzfs
virtualized a.s.a.p. after little script. Proceeding anyway
compatibilizing with pleasure affirming success getting sources last
24 h both from Mr. Bond and default.

git-pull up to date to laptops goes perfectly here, reading how to
proceed either read manual more carefully or receive enabling
instructions here. 1 script to autorenew will really facilitate.
pkgsrc-update just OK here, then insecure incompetence how to get on next
step, which are variables and which hard. Still have more details
bringing on laptops (testing
intermittent success with switches, scanners and phones, got the
sources from Mr.Bond, can pkgsrc-update, now somewhat uncertain next

than mentioned here or git mirror option is just an alias)
thanks and bye for now
