Can you please elaborate more on what we need to do in case we have
instances with selfhosted puppet master?

Yep! Also note that I do not at all mind doing this myself, so if you have a problematic instance just let me know and I can clean things up. I recently visited almost all of the self-hosted instances and organized things, so probably your instances are in reasonable shape already.

To update yourself:

First, figure out if you have local changes, and if they're already organized into patches:

$ cd /var/lib/git/operations/puppet
$ git diff .

Is there a diff? If so you need to organize it into one or more patches and get them committed. Until 'git diff' runs cleanly the next step will fail.

Now that your local repo is organized, we want to rebase against gerrit. Assuming you haven't done anything dramatic, this should do the trick:

$ sudo GIT_SSH=/var/lib/git/ssh git pull --rebase

That rebase may fail with conflicts, depending on what local patches you have. If so, you need to resolve the conflicts as you would with any git rebase.

Once things are rebasing properly...

$ sudo puppetd -tv

And look for errors or warnings, and fix them :)

Doing all of this will get your instance so that it's clean and ready for updates, but we'll still need to repeat the rebase by hand when the actual migration happens. I'm not yet entirely sure how that procedure will go, but I guarantee it will be much easier if you follow the above steps ahead of time.
