Description Ti Leggett 2004-05-11 12:21:49 UTC
I'm currently in the process of developing a gentoo environment for our clusters and servers here. That means I have a central portage mirror that I use. That portage mirror also has a local portage (/usr/local/portage) tree for ebuilds that I create for our purposes. It would be great if I could specify in make.conf a location for a local sync, so that when on my client machines I do an emerge sync it not only syncs the gentoo portage tree but my local portage tree. Adding something to make.conf like:

LOCAL_SYNC="rsync://server.localdomain/gentoo-portage-local"
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"

It would use LOCAL_SYNC for where the rsync tree was and sync it to PORTDIR_OVERLAY (or LOCAL_PORTDIR if you don't want to muddy PORTDIR_OVERLAY)
