NAME
----
tito - manage RPM based projects using git


SYNOPSIS
--------
tito init

tito tag [OPTIONS]

tito build --test --rpm

tito build [OPTIONS]

tito release [OPTIONS] TARGET

tito report



DESCRIPTION
-----------

After setting up a directory as a Git repo, use `tito`
to manage the tags and builds. A simple workflow may look like:

. Save user preferences as described in `titorc(5)`
. Initialize a `rel-eng` directory
. Test
  .. Make changes to source
  .. Use git to commit changes
  .. Build: `tito build --rpm --test`
. Finalize a release
  .. Tag: `tito tag`
  .. Push: `git push && git push $ORIGIN $TAG`
  .. Build: `tito build [OPTIONS]`



OPTIONS
-------

`tito init`
~~~~~~~~~~~

This will create a top-level metadata directory called "rel-eng/" and commit it
to git. This directory will store tito's configuration and package metadata on
a per branch basis. It will be filtered out when creating .tar.gz's.

NOTE: Your spec file should list the source as `%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz`

`tito tag [options]`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By default, tito will tag by bumping the rpm version
(i.e. we bump the Z in X.Y.Z). If you'd prefer to bump the package
release instead (normally should just be used for changes to the spec file or
patches applied within it), you can change the default_tagger class in
rel-eng/tito.props to ReleaseTagger. This will affect all packages in this git
branch; if you'd prefer to do this on a per-package basis you can do so in a
package specific `tito.props`.

Don't automatically create a changelog entry for this
tag if none is found

--accept-auto-changelog::
Automatically accept the generated changelog.

--auto-changelog-message='MESSAGE'::

environment variable EDITOR.

--builder='BUILDER'::

--builder-arg='BUILDER_ARGS'::
Custom arguments specific to a particular builder. (key=value)

--scl='COLLECTION'::
Build package for software collection. This is mostly usefull for building src.rpm, because for rpm you want to define this option for specific tag in tito.props

`tito report`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Display a report of all packages with differences between
HEAD and their most recent tag, as well as a patch for

of a rebuild.

EXAMPLES
--------

Build and install a test package from the latest code in current git HEAD::
tito build --rpm --test -i

Overriding the default builder to build via mock instead::
tito build --builder mock --builder-arg mock=fedora-15-x86_64 --rpm
