Andrew,
- We're releasing an upgraded version of the installer this week,
including the latest Gitorious version and improvements in how/what it
installs. We'll announce it on the gitorious blog once it's up and
available.
- Regarding rake tasks etc, this has been more fiddly than necessary and
we've taken steps to make gitorious less "Rails-y" for admins installing
it. One of the things we've done is to create new scripts under bin/ in
the gitorious src code, which hides rails environments, makes sure you
are running the commands with the correct user/permissions etc.
sorry you had to fight so much with your installation, hope jumping
straight to 2.4.7 makes life easier.
cheers,
Thomas

I just install gitorious on a clean CentOS 6 machine using the

I assume this is the supported method?
Surprisingly, this installed a pretty old version - v2.3.2, and not
the most recent.
I've spent many hours trying to upgrade to v2.4.7, following the
directions here
https://gitorious.org/gitorious/pages/Upgrading#Upgrading+from+2.3.2+to+2.4.1++
For starters, the merge fails because I have locally updated files.
Surprising, since I just ran the installer and haven't touched anything:
[root@XXX /var/www/gitorious/app]# git status
# On branch my-version
# Changed but not updated:
# (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
# (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working
directory)
#
# modified: db/schema.rb
# modified: db/seeds.rb
#
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
# .bundle/
# log/git-proxy.log1
# log/gitorious_auth.log-20130210
# log/message_processing.log-20130210
# log/pre_receive_guard.log-20130210
# log/production.log-20130210
# log/sphinx.log-20130210
# public/javascripts/capillary.js
# public/stylesheets/all.css
# public/stylesheets/gts-external.css
# tmp/bundles_installed
# tmp/database_populated
# tmp/ownership
# vendor/bundle/
So I "git stash" the two files in the db directory. Then I can do the
git merge, which seems to work but still reports "Automatic merge
failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result."
After this I can run the rest of the tasks, although only if I
pre-pend "env RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec". From everything I've
read this is the proper way to run the rake tasks, so I can't see why
the upgrade docs would ignore them - or how/if they'd even work?
So the next issue is that, while the upgrade completely fails to
mention this, per the changelog "The Ultrasphinx plugin has been
replaced by ThinkingSphinx". So the init script that the installer
created, /etc/init.d/git-ultrasphinx, obviously doesn't work. The
problem is that nothing anywhere tells you how to appropriately change
this. Also, doc/templates/centos/ still contains the old ultrasphinx
script. I don't know what to change here to make it work.
I assume I'm doing the right thing by using the "supported" installer,
but I could sure use some help getting on the latest 2.4.x release.
Has anyone else done this on a CentOS 6 system? If so, I could use use
some help!
Thanks!
