Hi all, So I'm upgrading our ancient, unmaintained "who knows how this even worked" 1.7.20 to 2.5.2. It's going well, but I have a couple of questions.
1) We have our own git server, running gitolite. I have read the docs but I found them a bit lightweight on the subject: a) There's a crontab running every minute, doing a git fetch -q. Is this considered "normal" for a RB / git install? b) In the repository settings, the Path is set to the local clone path, and the Mirror Path is set to [email protected]:reponame. Do we have to have a local clone? (I think the answer here is yes, from the docs, but just want to check...) c) We have an SSH key configured in the RB settings. I don't see the point of the SSH key, if a crontab is already updating the local git clone... I ask because the server is occasionally slow to respond, but top and the logs show nothing interesting going on (that I've noticed). I'm wondering if doing a git fetch every minute is somehow making it hang, although I don't see git in top at that time either, so I'm kind of clutching at straws. I'm happy for any advice on how things *should* be configured, this is a good time to change the config. 2) I see that the config file contains a random secret that I assume was generated by rb-site install. I'd like to know if changing that will break anything. The reason behind it is that I want to Puppetize the server install, and I'd rather generate the config file with rb-site install, than store it in S3 and copy it into place. Any tips on this would be really welcome. The mobile CSS looks just great, by the way. :) Please let me know if I haven't been clear above, happy to provide more information as necessary. -- Supercharge your Review Board with Power Pack: https://www.reviewboard.org/powerpack/ Want us to host Review Board for you?
