[Buildroot] Access to Buildroot git via https

[Alexey Brodkin]

Hi Peter,

I'm wondering if there's a way to access Buildroot main git repo via HTTPS?
Here (https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/) it is mentioned only git protocol URL:
git://git.busybox.net/buildroot which doesn't work behind some corporate firewalls
(and I'm tired asking IT guys to open git port for each particular server IP).

IMHO HTTPS option would be very convenient especially keeping in mind very few
people have rights to commit.

It would indeed be useful. But in the mean time, you can already get
Buildroot from https://, by using the Github mirror at
https://github.com/buildroot/buildroot/. The Github mirror is updated
every 10 minutes.

Indeed that's what I did but from purist POV true mainline git repo
is a little-bit better solution :)

Hi Thomas,

all commits from yesterday did not reach github, maybe related to the
server migration described by Peter?

I just tried this:

    $ git clone https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/
    Cloning into 'buildroot'...
    [...]

So it works. But it is slow as hell...

Then it is sad that the https:// address is not mentioned in
https://git.buildroot.org/buildroot/ under the "Clone:" section.

That's exactly what I meant - why don't we add that URL there?

I just noticed GitHub repo was not updated in 10 days.
Is there a problem with it?

The last commit on GitHub is "directfb: depends on NPTL threading".

My mistake. Some time ago, someone (Romain?) reported that the new tags
were not pushed to the Github repository. So I changed the "git push"
in my script to "git push --tags". Except that this only seems to push
the tags, not the commits themselves when there are new commits but no
new tags.

So I'm now doing a "git push" *and* a "git push --tags". This should
hopefully fix the problem.

Thanks,

Thomas

I *think* you can use git push --all.

At least now GitHub tree matches?https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/.
Thanks a lot for a prompt fix!

I've taken a look at the cgit documentation and added it now, thanks.
