Bug 397989 – Please migrate the 'gentoo-news' repo to git

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Infrastructure

[Description Michał Górny 2012-01-07 10:16:10 UTC]

If there is no reason not to do it, please migrate the gentoo-news repository into git. This will allow developers to work on new news message commits without having to commit them directly to the server.

Is it possible to have a pre-commit hook (as in bug 275503) in git?

If yes, then please provide one.
If not, I'm opposed against this move.

Yep, I think the 'update' hook would be best for it.

Will do later today. It is supposed to be based on the 'take 5' attachment, right?

Yes, unless it was subsequently updated. I don't know if it's possible to see the active file, though. Maybe you have to check with infra.

One of you, ping me on IRC please re that hook.

The hook should be ready now but please verify that the hook is working.
