[Engine-devel] Shipping settings.xml in oVirt engine's git repo (was RE: maven settings.xml in building ovirt engine wiki)
<snipped>
Note that settings.xml isn't shifted with ovirt-engine, nor
stored on
ovirt-engine git repository. Therefore there is no real method to
control its content expect updating the wiki page.
Spinning off from the previous discussion - we can't really control the contents of
settings.xml, but perhaps we can make them easier to get.
Today, the flow is like this:
1. git clone - depends on gerrit.ovirt.org
2. wget settings.xml - depends on wiki.ovirt.org
Suppose we ship settings.xml inside the configuration folder of ovirt (next to
engine-code-format.xml and engine-commit-template.txt).
Then you'll have to do:
1. git clone - depends on gerrit.ovirt.org
2. cp $OVIRT_GIT/config/settings.xml ~/.m2/
This may a bit simpler, and at the very least, when we update our code (e.g., to assume
java7, *hint*), we can make all the changes in a single commit, and not have to update the
code and then upload a file to the wiki.
