Howto create an SMEServer contrib or core git repo

Introduction

We use gitea on https://src.koozali.org If you haven't got a user then ask on the rocket chat for one or email admin@koozali.org.

On the gitea we have 3 organisations which are bit like directories in which the git repos are kept. The organisations are:

1. smeserver - for core packages
2. smecontribs - for contrib packages
3. smedev - for useful packages and repositories of scripts etc that are not part of the actual distribution .

In the smedev organisation there are two template git repositories which can be use as a basis for creating an empy repo to go in smeserver or smecontribs organisation.

Templates are called:

1. Template-for-SMEServer-Core-Package
2. Template-for-SMEServer-Contribs-Package

When you do a create repositories in gitea, it will offer you these templates in the Template control on the form (see screenshot below)

The tag is created from the contents of the REL:EASE and VERSION in the spec file.

Create a tag before testing your empty repo by koji building it or mockbuilding it, then run:

git-retag.sh <packagename> <organisation>
