The Libreoffice homepages seem wrong. dev and test do not show a homepage for arabic/libreoffice, but stage and prod do. Could this be a commit which corrected something after dev and test were corrected? I think so. I think this commit did that. Let’s check from the command line. I’m doing this in my empty […]

The July 4th tweet announced “dev, test, and stage .freshports.org are now running Python 3.9”. Three days later, “Is it coincidental that dev, test, and stage are all stuck on commits from July 4?” I took notes as I explored the problem. The first clue was: 2022.07.07 00:12:03 git-delta.sh /usr/local/libexec/freshports/git-to-freshports-xml.py –repo ports –path /var/db/ingress/repos/ports –branch

I need some help with the git processing shell script. Look at line 82 in this script please. See those hardcoded branch names? That’s my problem. Let’s reduce the shell script to a simple proof of concept. % cat ~/tmp/poc.sh #!/bin/sh git for-each-ref –format ‘%(objecttype) %(refname)’ \ | sed -n ‘s/^commit refs\/remotes\///p’ \ | while

This is the first of a series of posts which provide sample queries. Sometimes you need a starting point. This particular query will be used for showing the recent commits on a branch.

Ports come and go. Sometimes they come back. Take a recent commit on 1 July against editors/ved (and others). This port was created on 01 Jan 2001 and removed on 15 May 2014 because it used the deprecated smake. The 1 July 2021 commit brought it back. There was a problem. Here is the page

This outlines the steps for putting the new git-delta.sh script into use. These steps will be required on each ingress node. stop ingress commit processing Look at the output of sudo tail /var/log/freshports/git.log and you should see something like this: [dan@devgit-ingress01:~] $ sudo tail /var/log/freshports/git.log 2021.06.27 17:21:05 git-delta.sh Repodir is /var/db/ingress/repos/src 2021.06.27 17:21:05 git-delta.sh Running:

Following on from yesterdays Quarterly branches: what’s next? and Processing commits on branches with git, I’ve started in on clearing commits from cache. The code First step, create a table which looks like this: freshports.devgit=# \d cache_clearing_commits Table “public.cache_clearing_commits” Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default —————–+—————————–+———–+———-+——— commit_to_clear | text | | not

This post is mostly for personal use as I investigate this topic. It may take a few days and I need to keep notes. Last week, FreshPorts went live with git commits. There are some outstanding issues, such as commits to branches, which I will catch up on in the weeks to come. During that

One of the many useful features on FreshPorts is: what port[s] install[s] this file? That’s the pkg-plist search option. pkg-plist is a file which “lists all the files installed by the port”. However not all ports have a pkg-plist file because the list is compiled automatically. That is why the configure_plist table was created to

Just like I moved devgit.freshports.org from github to git.freebsd.org for the doc repo on Thursday, today (Monday), I’m doing the same thing for the src repo. The jail uses storage on an nvd-based zpool. First, create a new filesystem: [dan@slocum:~] $ sudo zfs create nvd/freshports/devgit/ingress/repos/src You can see it appear here in the jail, but
