Dist Git
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Dist Git is a remote Git repository specificaly designed to hold RPM package sources. It consists of three main modules:
|
|
|
|
1. Git repository with permissions managed by [Gitolite](http://gitolite.com/gitolite/index.html)
|
|
2. Lookaside cache to store source tarballs
|
|
3. Scripts to manage
|
|
|
|
How does it work
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The Dist Git server repeatedly asks a package database for information about packages. This information contains a list of packages and other information. Each package can have a list of users or groups entitled to commit to this package and a list of platforms for which the package is built. Sources for each platform are held in corresponding branches.
|
|
|
|
User cat interact with the Dist Git server using client probably based on [rpkg](https://fedorahosted.org/rpkg/). The client authenticates with an ssh certificate for git communication and with an http client certificate for uploads to the lookaside cache.
