[Replicant] Creating new repository to git.replicant.us

[Joonas Kylmälä]

Hi Paul and Wolfgang,

I tried to create a new LineageOS-mirror repository to git.replicant.us
but step 3. at
https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/LineageMirror is
not much help. I think I need actual shell access in order to create the
repositories we need because the command to create new repository is
"GL_USER=gitolite-admin gitolite create xxxx".

If one of you could create the two repositories:
- LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac
- LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis

(they are needed because of
https://git.replicant.us/replicant/manifest/commit/?h=replicant-6.0-dev&id=682a2c4a85e095a60d81121125e2aacb8e803790)

- LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac
- LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis

As I've no experience with gitolite I've done it like that:
# cd /srv/git/git-data/repositories/LineageOS-mirror
# git clone --mirror https://github.com/LineageOS/android_external_aac
# git clone --mirror \
https://github.com/LineageOS/android_external_libvorbis
# chown git:git -R android_external_libvorbis.git \
android_external_aac.git
# chmod 775 android_external_libvorbis.git \
android_external_aac.git

The repositories are now accessible, but I don't know if I really need
to use gitolite. Someone would also need to create the respective git
bundles not to increase too much the fetch time.

As all the bundles had the same revision (refs/heads/cm-13.0) I created
the two respective bundles with:
# mkdir /srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac.git
# cd /srv/git/git-data/repositories/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac.git
# git bundle create \
/srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac.git/clone.bundle \
refs/heads/cm-13.0
# chown git:git \
/srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac.git/clone.bundle
# chmod 664 \
/srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_aac.git/clone.bundle

And:

# mkdir /srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis.git
# cd /srv/git/git-data/repositories/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis.git
# git bundle create
\ /srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis.git/clone.bundle
\ refs/heads/cm-13.0
# chown git:git \
/srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis.git/clone.bundle
# chmod 664 \
/srv/git/bundles/LineageOS-mirror/android_external_libvorbis.git/clone.bundle

Thanks GNUtoo! It's probably alright that way too.
