[PATCH WIP 0/4] Add upstream updater for git-fetch origins. |
|
Date: |
Sun, 15 Aug 2021 16:16:13 -0700 |
Hello Guix,
This is a proof-of-concept for extending `guix refresh -u` to support packages
with git-fetch origins. The potential impact is large: approximately 4.5k
packages use git-fetch, although only some fraction would be supported.
Currently, this enables update support for (at least) any package where
* github-updater finds an update,
* origin-method is 'git-fetch', and
* the package version is a suffix of the 'commit' field.
Drawbacks currently include the fact that libgit2 doesn't (yet) support
shallow checkouts [0], so the entire repository must be cloned. There is also
no support for verifying commits.
There should probably also be a few tests added.
WDYT?

Applied v5 of this patch series, thanks a lot Sarah, Maxime, and zimoun!

One thing we should eventually address IMO is how the <upstream-source>
abstraction could be made to better model both tarballs and checkouts:
