Notes about the Git repository
==============================
I attach some importance to having a clean history in the repository.
So please try to follow the rules and advice given in this file.
Learn git
---------
If you don't know Git, please take the time to read a good tutorial:
$ man gittutorial
If you want a full book, you can check out https://git-scm.com/book
Configure git
-------------
Ensure you have properly configured Git with you real name and your email:
$ git config --global user.name "Your Complete Name"
$ git config --global user.email "your@email"
Retrieving the sources
----------------------
Read-only anonymous access:
$ git clone https://salsa.debian.org/hertzog/debian-handbook.git
SSH access for contributors with write access:
$ git clone git@salsa.debian.org:hertzog/debian-handbook.git
Updating your working copy
--------------------------
From time to time, you will have to integrate the changes committed by
others since your last synchronization (in particular before a push,
otherwise your push will be rejected), please use "git pull --rebase" for
this.
This will avoid merges and keep a clean linear history.
Pushing your work to the official repository
--------------------------------------------
The official repository is on salsa.debian.org, Debian's GitLab instance.
Contributing is thus usually done through merge requests. For this
you need to "fork" the official repository on your own salsa.debian.org
account and push your work into this repository.
To create an account on salsa.debian.org, follow the process from this
page ("Create a new guest account"):
https://signup.salsa.debian.org/
Then once logged in with your new user account, you can visit
https://salsa.debian.org/hertzog/debian-handbook and click on the "Fork"
button. This will create a copy of the repository available under
your own username. Assuming foobar-guest is your username, it would
then be accessible on https://salsa.debian.org/foobar-guest/debian-handbook
and once you have configured your SSH key, you have full write access to
your own repository with this git url:
git@salsa.debian.org:foobar-guest/debian-handbook.git
After having pushed your work somewhere in your own repository, you
can create a merge request here:
https://salsa.debian.org/hertzog/debian-handbook/merge_requests
Official branches
-----------------
- buster/master: development branch
- stretch/master: main branch for the version targeting Stretch
- jessie/master: main branch for the version targeting Jessie
- jessie/print-en: print version of the English book targeting Jessie
(based on jessie/master but with supplementary markup to
avoid some pitfalls of the dblatex conversion)
- jessie/print-fr: print version of the French book targeting Jessie
published by Eyrolles
Official tags
-------------
They have this format <codename>-<type>-<lang>-<edition>.
<codename> is the Debian release codename.
<type> is "print" or "ebook".
<lang> is the language code (ex: "en" or "pt-BR")
<edition> is the edition number ("ed1" for the first edition)
debian/<version> tags point to the corresponding releases of the Debian
package.
