[edit] Installation
All projects files are available through the GIT repository (a source code management available for *BSD, Linux and also Windows's MingGW).
- You don't have to install Git if you only want to browse the files. Follow this link in that case http://git.pbmaster.org
- You have to install Git in order to checkout the project. Please make sure you have git-http-* commands installed.
[edit] Setup client
- Create a file named ~/.netrc with the content. You can use multipe machines/user/password with a single configuration file. Just add more configuration for each machine to the file.
machine git.pbmaster.org login <username> password <password>
and set permissions:
$ chmod 600 ~/.netrc
- To check whether all is OK, do:
$ curl --netrc --location -v http://<username>@git.pbmaster.org/pbmaster/HEAD
this should give something like ref: refs/heads/master, which is the content of the file HEAD on the server. If you got an error 401 Authorization Required, your login data is probably not setup correctly.
[edit] Initial checkout
- Checkout the project
$ git clone http://<username>@git.pbmaster.org/pbmaster
- Add your user data to your git/config
[user]
name = "Your Name"
email = "your.email@pbmaster.org"
[color]
diff = auto
status = auto
branch = auto
[edit] Troubleshooting
- If git hung during the push command, check if the following line in your git/config terminates with a slash character
url = http://<username>@git.pbmaster.org/pbmaster/
It is important to put the last /; Without it, the server will send a redirect which git-http-push does not (yet) understand, and git-http-push will repeat the request infinitely.
