The GitHub organization hosts read-only mirrors of all the libvirt Git repositories.

When creating a new repository the following changes to the defaults are required under the Settings page:

  • Options
    • Features
      • Wikis: disabled
      • Sponsorships: disabled

      • Check for Repo Lockdown (should be set automatically for all projects)

In the master git repository create a file .github/lockdown.yml to restrict use of issue tracker and pull requests.

libvirt.org

The libvirt project server hosts read-only mirrors of all the libvirt Git repositories in the directory /data/git.

When creating a new repository the following steps are required:

  • Create repo with :

    $ sudo su -
# cd /data/git
# mkdir $repo.git
# cd $repo.git
# git init --bare
# touch export
# touch git-daemon-export-ok
# cd ..
# chown -R gitmirror.gitmirror $repo.git
# chmod -R g+w $repo.git
# find -type d $repo.git | xargs chmod g+s

  • Set the description and config files following other repos' example

  • Setup mirroring :

    $ sudo su - gitmirror
# ./newrepo.sh /data/git/$repo.git
# cd mirrors
# $HOME/sync-one.sh $repo.git
