From: ori@eigenstate.org To: 9front@9front.org, 9fans@9fans.net Subject: git/serve, git/compat Date: Sun, 06 Sep 2020 14:46:50 -0700 Message-ID: <B678CBD7CA8ABC0D9C128DF4FE365C84@eigenstate.org> (raw) Hey, I try not to be too verbose about new features landing in git9, but I think these warrant some noise. Both git/compat and git/serve have landed in the last few days. Git/compat is a script that drops you into a new rc shell with a 'git' script in $path. This git script provides enough of the upstream git interface that 'go get' and friends work out of the box, as long as you're in a git repository. Thanks to halfwit for doing the work on this! % git/compat nested% cd $gorepo nested% go get ./... Git/serve is exactly what it sounds like: A git server that runs on plan 9. It supports both read-only and read-write access. # read-only git://$host server, works with git % aux/listen1 'tcp!*!9418' git/serve Once that's running, you can clone from it using any git client that supports the git:// protocol unix$ git clone git://host/path/to/repo.git p9% git/clone git://host.com/path/to/repo You can also tunnel it over TLS with plan 9 auth, if you want authenticated pushes: % aux/listen1 -t 'tcp!*!9418' tlsclient -a git/serve -wr`{pwd} With this, you currently need a plan 9 git client, since unix git doesn't know how to tunnel over tlsclient or authenticate with an auth server: p9% git/clone hjgit://host.com/path/to/repo But we can probably get a simple remote helper for unix git that will dial using a plan9port copy of tlsclient: https://rovaughn.github.io/2015-2-9.html There are still rough edges: Git/compat only works under a git repository. There are some commands that 'go get' invokes when run outside of a repository that need some work. Git/serve does not currently support bare repositories, so all repositories served must have a '.git' directory inside them: % ls /usr/ori/srv/git9 .git/ It's acceptably fast for small repositories, but there's a lot of low hanging fruit to pick. And of course, it's only been tested rather lightly.
