SBR600: GIT

Hi everyone!

Today I will be talking about GIT...

Git is a free and open source version control system similar to SVN.

Although I have played with SVN in the past, GIT seems to be quite easy to use as well...

For practice i tried a simple remote repository exercise.

First I cloned the repository, then I added my own branch, pushed my branch back to the server and verified it was there. Once i knew it was there i pulled someones branch to look at.

That's all the fun I have to report on GIT for now.

Until Next Time!

SBR600: Repositories/Distributing

Hi everyone!

Creating a repositories and distributing the packages was quite fun to do.

First off you must create a key for your repository using the command: gpg --gen-key

After that you must sign your package, and move it over to your distribution directory.

Then to create the metadata run the command: createrepo /name/of/directory

Once you have done that your all good to go. Happy Distributing!

Until next time,

Matt

SBR600: Mock Build/Koji

My mock build of nled went without any problems,

I had some troubles with koji, i kept getting this error message:

sslv3 alert certificate revoked

After a few hours i was able to get it to work... The issue
was that my certificates were not valid. So i had to manualy
delete the certificates and re-downland them. After that koji
worked flawlessly.

Next up: Signing RPM packages.

Until Next time...

After the pain i had with hotwire, nled seemed like a breeze... although i will still try to figure out how to build hotwire as it will keep bugging me if i don't...

SPEC file: SBR600.NLED
