I think there should most definitely be an official github mirror of |
| 40 |
the main tree, just a "read-only" mirror from githubs perspective. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Just how to best do the mirroring is the question |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
a) Replicate to github when a user does 'push' with a server-side push hook? |
| 45 |
( Downside: if github goes down, gentoo devs will see it when |
| 46 |
they push, and pushing takes longer because the output from the |
| 47 |
replicated push is delivered to the original dev ) |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
b) Daemonized hook that monitors for changes in the master repo, and |
| 50 |
replicates commits to github after each push |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
c) Tie it with the rsync tree building system so every time the tree |
| 53 |
is built for rsync clients, the master is replicated to github. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Also, this should obviously be force-pushed, so any branch rebases on |
| 57 |
the master repo are replicated to the github mirror properly. |
