Overview

This tool allows the user to specify a branch in a dist-git (cgit) repository and it can import it into internal Red Hat CEE GitLab.

Setup

This tool reuses the Bacon configuration file and so requires that you have a working Bacon setup. The only addition is for reqour:

  reqour:
    url: "https://reqour.pnc.engineering...."

You must be a member of jboss-prod so you have access to repositories created in CEE GitLab under the pnc-workspace group.

Usage

Options:

Usage: rpm-importer [-hvV] [--overwrite] [--push] [--skip-sync] [--branch=<branch>] [-p=<configPath>] [--profile=<profile>] [--repository=<repository>]
                    --url=<url>

      --branch=<branch>     Branch in distgit repository
  -h, --help                Show this help message and exit.
      --overwrite           Overwrites existing pom. Dangerous!
  -p, --configPath=<configPath>
                            Path to PNC configuration folder
      --profile=<profile>   PNC Configuration profile
      --push                Pushes changes to the remote repository. Will still commit
      --repository=<repository>
                            Skips cloning and uses existing repository
      --skip-sync           Skips any syncing and only clones the repository and performs the patching
      --url=<url>           External URL to distgit repository
  -v, --verbose             Verbose output
  -V, --version             Print version information and exit.

Typical usage:

java -jar target/rpm-importer-parent-<version>.jar --url=https://pkgs.devel...../git/rpms/<repository> --branch=jb-eap-8.1-rhel-9

Notes:

• Unless --push is suppled the tool will only commit changes locally and not push to the remote. It is highly recommended that the user checks the resulting pom.xml before manually running any git push.
• Skipping repository syncing only makes sense if the repository has already been mirrored to GitLab. This might be the case if the user is switching between multiple branches.
• Using an existing locally cloned repository is primarily useful for local debugging.
