Hello!
While looking how to enable FAI to use subversion as a revision control
backend, I got somewhat confused by following command sequence from the
get_fai_cvs() function:
export FAI_CONFIG_AREA=$FAI
export FAI=/tmp/$(basename $FAI_CONFIG_AREA)
[ "$debug" ] && echo "\$FAI now points to $FAI"
if [ -d "$FAI_CONFIG_AREA" ] ; then
echo "Config found at $FAI_CONFIG_AREA: Copying"
cp -a $FAI_CONFIG_AREA $FAI
fi
This effectively intermixes a (clients) local config area with the revision
controlled config area. What is this good for? IMHO, a revision controlled
configuration should be exactly what it is intended to be: revision
controlled. Intermixing it with non-revision-controlled configuration
options seems to be a BadThing(TM) to me.
Could someone please help to clarify my confusion?
