Having said that, I would be perfectly fine with a single repository
that tracks the release configuration, but only if it also held the
git repository link and hash/branch name that is supposed to be
released. It would be in some way a "distgit repo". Something like
Sandro has for builds.
[ovirt-4.0.x-ci]
git://gerrit.ovirt.org/project.git#ovirt-4.0.x
git://gerrit.ovirt.org/project2.git#v4.0.x
git://github.com/Me/repo#master
[ovirt-4.0.6]
git://gerrit.ovirt.org/project.git#ovirt-4.0.6
git://gerrit.ovirt.org/project2.git#v4.0.6
http://github.com/Me/repo/releases/x.y.z.zip
Any release would then be reviewed by the CI team and that would be
fine for me. It would allow any branch name or versioning convention
and would not pollute the sources. It would also be gerrit agnostic.
Well said!
May pain points with jenkins project:
- No documentation
- The format is not stable, each time you edit the format is different
- No way to test changes, only infra guys can test changes, sometimes
even infra guys cannot test changes and they simply merge them
for testing
- The project format is full of duplication
- No commit right, cannot be responsible for something I cannot change
Compare with travis:
- Everting defined in *my* project in .travis.yml
- Configuration format is well documented
https://docs.travis-ci.com/
- Configuration format is well designed, can do lot of work with very
little configuration
For example - this yaml define matrix of 3 builds:
https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/blob/master/.travis.yml
- Easy to test changes before merging (push to your fork on github)
- Very nice web ui, e.g.
https://travis-ci.org/oVirt/vdsm/builds/198571421
https://travis-ci.org/oVirt/vdsm/jobs/198571422
