support for multiple repos

[toon.verstraelen@…]

Hi, I'm currently trying the git plugin for the first time. Is it possible to include multiple git repositories? Will it ever be possible? I have this situation:

/var/git/project1.git
/var/git/project2.git
/var/git/project3.git

but it would be convenient to have one trac site for all these projects. Is this a good idea?

It would seem this project supports multiple repos:

if you want to have multiple repostories per Trac environment, you'll have to wait for ​trac:MultipleRepositorySupport

for now you have to create one Trac environment per git repository...

Apart from that link now being apparently broken, they seem to be using the GitwebPlugin.

What about combining your git repositories in a super-repository using submodules? Would that work? See ​http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitSubmoduleTutorial for details on setting up a super-repository.

I doubt that GitPlugin right now properly supports submodules yet (I haven't tested it yet, and I expect issues)

indeed ,the error is

internal error (got unexpected object kind 'commit')

This one works for me: ​http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/using-merge-subtree.html

Just some little drawbacks: The repository the subprojects are imported into must not be empty. I had to make an initial commit with a dummy file which also appears in the revision history.

So, I tried using the MultipleRepos branch of .12 with git plugin. ​http://svn.edgewall.com/repos/trac/sandbox/multirepos

Everything works for the most part it seems (surprisingly), aside from when going to a changeset the links to the parent in the non-default repository tries to go to the repository path such as

Parents:    a2e0f4c40330a9e197bd44dce2f28c6ca059075f

Fix changeset error and make it work on the multirepo branch

[anonymous]

Above patch should fix the issue encountered in above comment.

Now gitplugin appears to work nicely with multiple repositories. :)

[lxsameer@…]

hi , does that patch is for version 0.11 of trac or 0.12? and how can i use that? i mean what should i have in my trac.ini to use multi repo?

[jsimpson@…]

I'm getting the following error against 0.12multirepos rev 8345.

 Trac detected an internal error:

I also get the following error when running resync

# trac-admin /data/projects/sysadmin/ repository resync "*"
Resyncing repository history for haw...
AttributeError: get_db_cnx

  File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/logging/__init__.py", line 737, in emit

Any ideas on how I could fix this up?

[Haw Loeung]

Seems disabling cached_repository fixes my problems.

[Christian Boos]

Note that there's an upcoming API change on ​Trac:MultiRepos, we're going away from composite (reponame,id) for changeset and source resource and we will instead make them subresource of a Resource('repository', reponame) resource. See ​#T7706.

With Multirepos r9085 I get:

2010-01-27 17:24:07,698 Trac[chrome] ERROR: Error with navigation contributor BrowserModule: TypeError: 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable

[Christian Boos]

Well, I guess a 0.12 branch of that plugin is really needed at this point...

I've started working on a port of this to 0.12 at ​http://github.com/lentil/trac-git-plugin.

Currently the cached_repository is still not working, but with that option disabled it seems to be OK. Feel free to pull this into a new 0.12 branch if that's any help.

[kevin]

I went ahead and added a ticket with the above patch -- #6554. Hopefully it will be of some use.

Cheers, Kevin

there is now :-)

i'd say this can be closed as fixed.
