Bug #8347: vcsrepo: revision parameter should assume HEAD
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8347
Author: micah -
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category:
Target version:
Keywords: vcsrepo git
Branch:
Module:
Given this manifest:
<pre>
vcsrepo {"/usr/share/plugins":
ensure => present,
provider => git,
source => "[email protected]:plugins.git";
}
</pre>
The repository is properly checked out initially, but it is never updated with
the latest revision, and instead each puppet run complains:
<pre>
err: /Stage[main]/Vcsrepo[/usr/share/plugins]: Could not evaluate: Execution of
'/usr/bin/git rev-parse ' returned 128: fatal: ambiguous argument '': unknown
revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
</pre>
This is because the revision parameter is not specified, if I specify "revision
=> HEAD" it works as expected.
By default, revision should be set to HEAD, unless specified otherwise, or the
README.GIT.Markdown should clarify that this is required. Right now it makes it
seem like that parameter is not needed:
<pre>
To clone/pull a repository
----------------------------
To get the current [master] HEAD:
vcsrepo { "/path/to/repo":
ensure => present,
provider => git,
source => "git://example.com/repo.git"
}
For a specific revision (can be a commit SHA or tag):
vcsrepo { "/path/to/repo":
ensure => present,
provider => git,
source => 'git://example.com/repo.git',
revision => '0c466b8a5a45f6cd7de82c08df2fb4ce1e920a31'
}
</pre>
