Re: [9fans] 9front, git and mercurial.
I didn't even notice until now that there was a dedicated 9front list - I will try to subscribe to that shortly and move the conversation there. Not sure that I understand how to determine which revision I am on - more familiar with svn than either hg or git - if I run "hg log" within /sys/src the first two lines say: changeset: 8493:c8bec6f5ee1e tag: tip Does that answer the question, or how do I go about obtaining that?

Re: [9fans] 9front, git and mercurial.
Related question I can't seem to track down an answer to: I have a 9front cluster which was set up back when Mercurial was used, so that is what sysupdate is looking for. I finally realized that I am no longer seeing updates because 9front switched to git. How does one go about upgrading an existing 9front install to pull updates from git instead of hg? When I try running the manual commands to pull from git it (logically) complains that it is not a git repository, but I am not finding any clear instructions on how to go about making this switch on an existing install?

Some of it, including the code.9front.org repo, consists of VMs that I host on colocated hardware. git.9front.org is elsewhere at the moment, and I'm in the middle of deploying faster hardware to hopefully provide a longer-term home to more of the services. Other pieces live in commercial VM providers like vultr, linode, ramnode, and so forth. A few of these providers either offer 9front as a deployment option or allow you to upload your own iso for provisioning. khm -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T7dfa66085e395bcb-M57e06b7391bc1239b906f010 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
Re: [9fans] 9front, git and mercurial.
Quick question (or maybe not), but how are these being hosted? Is this done on a cloud provider vm platform? Or is this being done in a traditional DC using real hardware? Just curious to know how this is being done because I would like to do something similar. Cheers!

[9fans] 9front, git and mercurial.
Posting here for wider distribution: 9front is fully self-hosting on git, running the git-server for 9front on 9front. So, hg and python are now removed from the distribution, but will be archived here: git://git.9front.org/plan9front/pyhg After a sysupdate, you'll probably want to clean up the remaining bits of python: rm /$objtype/bin/python cd /sys/man && mk Also, in case anyone in the 9legacy world was using git9: look for the most recent version in: /sys/src/cmd/git or on the web at: http://git.9front.org/plan9front/plan9front/HEAD/sys/src/cmd/git/f.html -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T7dfa66085e395bcb-Mec09bfe9555050d9861fd1f8 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
