NAME
GROK-DUMB-PULL - Update git repositories not managed by grokmirror
SYNOPSIS
grok-dumb-pull [options] /path/to/repos
DESCRIPTION
This is a satellite utility that updates repositories not exported via grokmirror manifest. You will need to manually clone these repositories using "git clone --mirror" and then define a cronjob to update them as frequently as you require. Grok-dumb-pull will bluntly execute "git remote update" in each of them.
OPTIONS
--version show program's version number and exit -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose Be verbose and tell us what you are doing -s, --svn The remotes for these repositories are Subversion -r REMOTES, --remote-names=REMOTES Only fetch remotes matching this name (accepts globbing, can be passed multiple times) -u POSTHOOK, --post-update-hook=POSTHOOK Run this hook after each repository is updated. Passes full path to the repository as the sole argument. -l LOGFILE, --logfile=LOGFILE Put debug logs into this file
EXAMPLES
The following will update all bare git repositories found in /path/to/repos hourly, and /path/to/special/repo.git daily, fetching only the "github" remote: MAILTO=root # Update all repositories found in /path/to/repos hourly 0 * * * * mirror /usr/bin/grok-dumb-pull /path/to/repos # Update /path/to/special/repo.git daily, fetching "github" remote 0 0 * * * mirror /usr/bin/grok-dumb-pull -r github /path/to/special/repo.git Make sure the user "mirror" (or whichever user you specified) is able to write to the repos specified.
