Bug 101556 – RFE: Provide more flexible configuration for gensync from app-portage/gentoolkit-dev

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Kalin KOZHUHAROV 2005-08-06 09:45:11 UTC]

I am using gensync for almost 6 months now and it worked great.
Now I started using subversion to keep track of my own portage overlay and this
just didn't play nice with gensync....

My overlay is called pkalin 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. svn co svn+ssh://my_url/
2. gensync pkalin


Actual Results:  
gensync deleted all .svn/ directories :-(

Expected Results:  
Leave them (or CVS/) intact.

I need a way to exclude these.

Will attach a patch.

Created attachment 65243 [details, diff]
Allow arbitrary options for rsync in /etc/gensync/gensync.conf

As an addition to that, in the default config file:

>>>>>
# A good idea to add to rsync_options is to exclude .svn/ files if any
rsync_options = --exclude .svn/
<<<<<

Any documentation updates? I couldn't find any...

Created attachment 67920 [details, diff]
gentoolkit-dev-0.2.5.ebuild.diff

Now that gentoolkit-0.2.5 is out, I am updating with a patch to the ebuild.

Plese do consider it together with patch #65243

Closing this bug because of old age :-(

Please use layman instead of gensync.
