[savannah-help-public] [sr #109047] Admin changes for git migration of "lmi"

[Bob Proulx]

Follow-up Comment #10, sr #109047 (project administration):

I am sure that someone will post with the URL for looking at the config. But
yes changes still need to go through one of the savannah hackers.

vcs:/srv/git# cat lmi.git/config 
[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        bare = true
        sharedrepository = 2
[receive]
        denyNonFastforwards = true
[gitcvs "pserver"]
        enabled = 1
[gitcvs "ext"]
        enabled = 0
[gitcvs]
        dbname = %G/gitcvs-db/sqlite
[multimailhook]
        mailinglist = address@hidden

Perhaps it will help to show the current snapshot of things.

All of them use a post-receive with customizations that imports
git_multimail.py.  Some of them have a fixed snapshot.  (Which is my known
working state.  I just set lmi that way.)  And some of them are symlinked to a
shared copy.

The failing subject one is where I had set up a clone with the symlink to the
shared copy.  But apparently the post-receive I grabbed and modified doesn't
work with it and causes the subject to be empty.  Soo...  To immediately
address the problem of the missing subject lines I set lmi up with the
snapshot combination that I know is working for another project.

I would rather like to update the shared copy with a git pull but that will
have immediate effect upon all of the symlinked copies.  Which means that each
of those that have been working could potentially stop working.  Or their
behavior might change where someone wouldn't like the result.  So each would
need to be tested and verified if doing that.

I would rather set up a version B next to it and update it.  Then could walk
through the projects one by one and update and verify each that they are
working okay.  Can probably figure out what is different in the post-receive
and then all of them will be the same.  But it still would need to be done.

But anyway... That is why things are lagging behind on this part of things.
But it is quite easy to update to the newest snapshot available now for your
project lmi and work through the details with this project.  That is fine. 
And good because then could update the other projects after working through
the details here.
