Multiple variables are redundantly defined both for a project and for the multiple-projects toplevel directory. Add a place to maintain them centrally, and add PGIT_SH as a first variable.
The target pkg-delete-ours, invoked from the projects directory, should wipe all packages from the system which have been created and installed via jw-pkg.
Currently they are selected via url =~ janware. This is a default string which can be overridden by redefining JANWARE_PACKAGE_FILTER. This might not be the most generic name, but is kind of consistent and will be matched once all variables get renamed to a more generic naming scheme.
This currently does not get all packages: Some are not labeled with URLs matching "janware", because jw-pkg is only used as a convenient way to package other people's open source projects.
There's pkg-manager-refresh already, so by adding pkg-manager-dup the distribution can be upgraded by distribution agnostic targets only through the Makefile. This might come in handy for CI, so add it.
--quote puts double quotation marks around the listed dependencies, protecting version requirements (>= 1.0) and parenthesis "perl(GD)" from the shell.
Retire pkg-manager.sh and replace it by the cleaner "jw-pkg.sh distro" command, essentially providing the same functionality and nearly the same command-line interface.
400 LOC more. That's what the move from a shell script to the more maintainable Python versions costs. Still a good idea, and the enhanced extensibility might pay off in terms of LOC with other shell scripts in the future.
Reorganize the Python module structure. Placing the command classes under jw.cmds.projects instead of jw.build.cmds will allow to add a nested command structure, with the current commands, being mostly related to building software, found below a "projects" toplevel command.
Other conceivable commands could be "package" for packaging, or "distro" for commands wrapping the distribution's package manager.
Kali Linux' default installation doesn't have /usr/bin/time which brings out a but: $(TIME) doesn't expand to nothing but to -p, which fails miserably, of course. Fix that.
PGIT_SH gets added --remote-base, but too late to make it into the non-recursive variable PGIT_SH_CLONE. This leads to --remote-base lacking from the clone invocation, and anonymous Git over HTTP failing because it tries to clone via SSH. Fix that.
make git-show-pushable-master-branches output too litte for two reasons: 1. grep -q returns zero also if no matches are found, and 2. PROJECTS doesn't contain all relevant projects. BUILD_PROJECTS is more meaningful.
--create-remote-user-repos had been disabled in 4053451bfd on the grounds that it's hard to test and possibly superflous. It actually is not superfluous, as devops builds show, and that's a valid test-case, so re-enable it.
jw-build doesn't stop at building software, packaging it afterwards is also a core feature, so this commit gives the package a better name.
The commit replaces strings s/jw-build/jw-pkg/ in text files and file names. Fallout to the functionality is fixed, variable names are left as they are, though. To be adjusted by later commits.
In the attempt to move away from communicating options via environment variables from one part of jw-build software to another, replace PGIT_CLONE_FROM_USER with the clearer --refspec option. Which is also more versatile.
Currently, the primary discriminating criterion on how to handle a set of remote repositories is whether or not JANWARE_USER is defined. The canonical way to do that is PROJECTS_DIR_REMOTE_BASE, though, so go from that definition.
The usage comments heading projects-dir-minimal.mk and projects-dir.mk state that for cloning all repositories, JANWARE_USER needs to be defined. That restriction is now gone, so reflect that in the comment.
Add the variable PROJECTS_DIR_REMOTE_BASE, defaulting to ssh://git.janware.com/srv/git if REMOTE_USER is defined, and to https://janware.com/code in case it isn't.
jw-pkg is related to, but strictly speaking not indispensible for building and packaging software. So, in the attempt have a minimal jw-build, move jw-pkg to jw-base, and fix all packages that use it.
Make list-files target ignore errors. This catches errors from git ls-files | xargs realpath if git ls-files lists dead symbolic links, as in my-project/blah/dev/fd -> ./proc/self/fd.
Implemented by passing -q (quiet) to realpath, not sure what else this suppresses.
Re-add everything necessary for recursively building all repos in a directory, e.g. as a build controlled by janware.com/Makefile or any other installation.
This adds 489 lines of code which can (and should) be massively reduced, notably removing code supporting CVS.
"Makefile" is used in dependency checks within projects-dir.mk. Since it might be included from projects-dir-minimal.mk, which also works with "GNUmakefile", make this fallback of a predefinable variable, PROJECTS_MAKEFILE_NAME.
Adapt projects makefile to match the mechanism all proj.mk's are supposed to find their JWBDIR. Namely make JWBDIR_NAME a conditionally assigned variable to allow for some testing of alternative jw-build trees.
This adds support for the variable OFFLINE_PROJECTS in projects-dir.mk and the PGIT_IGNORE environment variable. Both go hand in hand and do what their names insinuate. OFFLINE_PROJECTS is initialized from EXCLUDE_FROM_BUILD, which in turn is initialized from exclude.txt and friends.
