redmine_git_remote
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
Redmine plugin to automatically clone and remote git repositories.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Install the plugin as usual:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd REDMINE_ROOT/plugins
|
|
git clone https://github.com/dergachev/redmine_git_remote
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Be sure to install the appropriate SSH keys to `~/.ssh/id_rsa` (for your redmine user).
|
|
I recommend creating a dedicated deployment user on github/gitlab for this purpose.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
This plugin defines a new repository type, GitFetch, which allows you to associate
|
|
a remote repository with your Redmine project. First create a new repository of type
|
|
GitFetch, enter the clone URL. The identifier and path will be auto-generated, but can be overriden.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On submitting the repository creation form, the identifier and `url`
|
|
(filesystem path) fields will be auto-generated (if not explicitly provided) as follows:
|
|
|
|
Clone URL: `https://github.com/dergachev/vagrant-vbox-snapshot`
|
|
URL (filesystem path): `REDMINE_PLUGINS_PATH/redmine_git_remote/repos/github.com/dergachev/vagrant-vbox-snapshot`
|
|
Identifier: `vagrant-vbox-snapshot`
|
|
|
|
Once the remote URL is validated, the plugin creates an "empty clone" at the specified path.
|
|
|
|
This plugin hooks into the core `Repository.fetch_changesets` to automatically
|
|
run `git fetch --all` on all GitRemote managed repositories, before those
|
|
commits are imported into Redmine. To avoid slowing down the GUI, we recommend
|
|
unchecking the "Fetch commits automatically" setting at
|
|
[http://redmine-root/settings?tab=repositories](http://redmine-root/settings?tab=repositories)
|
|
and relying on the following cron job as per [Redmine Wiki Instructions](http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineRepositories):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd /home/redmine/redmine && ./script/rails runner \"Repository.fetch_changesets\" -e production >> log/cron_rake.log 2>&1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note GitRemote doesn't delete the cloned repos when the associated record is deleted from Redmine.
|
|
|
|
Tested on Redmine 2.6.
