=======================
Version control systems
=======================
The sections in this guide do only cover the basics steps in the setup
of the different version control system for the usage with the Bcfg2
plugin support. More more details about
Git
===
.. _Git tutorial: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gittutorial.html
Adding the :ref:`server-plugins-version-git` plugins can preserve
versioning information. The first step is to add **Git** to your
plugin line::
plugins = Base,Bundler,Cfg,...,Git
For tracking the configuration files in the ``/var/lib/bcfg2``
directory a git repository need to be established::
git init
For more detail about the setup of git please refer to a `git tutorial`_.
The first commit can be the empty or the already populated directory::
git add . && git commit -a
While running ``bcfg2-info`` the following line will show up::
Initialized git plugin with git directory = /var/lib/bcfg2/.git
Mercurial
=========
For the :ref:`server-plugins-version-hg` plugin are the same changes
needed as for git. ::
plugins = Base,Bundler,Cfg,...,Mercurial
The repository must be initialized::
hg init
Mercurial will not commit the files to the repository until a user name
is defined in ``/var/lib/bcfg2/.hg/``
.. code-block:: sh
cat <<END_ENTRY >> /var/lib/bcfg2/.hg/hgrc
[ui]
username = Yor name <you@example.com>
END_ENTRY
Now you are able to make submissions to the repository::
hg commit
While running ``bcfg2-info`` the following line will show up::
Initialized hg plugin with hg directory = /var/lib/bcfg2/.hg
Darcs
=====
If you wish to use the :ref:`server-plugins-version-darcs` plugin an
entry has to be made in the ``bcfg2.conf`` file.::
plugins = Base,Bundler,Cfg,...,Darcs
The dracs repository must be initialized::
darcs initialize
To commit to the darcs repository an author must be added to the
``_darcs/prefs/author`` file. If the ``author`` file is missing,
darcs will ask you to enter your e-mail address.
.. code-block:: sh
cat <<END_ENTRY >> /var/lib/bcfg2/_darcs/prefs/author
you@example.com
END_ENTRY
All files in the ``/var/lib/bcfg2`` should be added to darcs now::
darcs add *
After that you can submit them to the repository::
darcs record
While running ``bcfg2-info`` the following line will show up::
Initialized Darcs plugin with darcs directory = /var/lib/bcfg2/_darcs
Cvs
===
If you wish to use the :ref:`server-plugins-version-darcs` plugin an
entry has to be made in the ``bcfg2.conf`` file.::
plugins = Base,Bundler,Cfg,...,Cvs
The CVS repository must be initialized::
cvs -d /var/lib/bcfg2 init
