Tutorial

Getting started

  • Make sure you are using Python3.5 or higher.

  • Install tsrc with pip3 as usual.

  • Create a manifest repository. (git@example.org/manifest)

  • Push a file named manifest.yml looking like:

    repos:
      - src: foo
        url: git@example.com/foo.git
    
      - src: bar
        url: git@example.com/bar.git
  • Clone the repositories with:

    $ mkdir workspace
    $ cd workspace
    $ tsrc init git@example/manifest.git

In this example:

  • foo will be cloned in <workspace>/foo using git@example.com:foo.git origin url.

  • Similarly, bar will be cloned in <workspace>/bar using git@example.com/bar.git

Managing Merge Requests

  • Generate a token from GitLab

  • Add the http url to the manifest:

    gitlab:
      url: http://gitlab.local
  • Create a ~/.config/tsrc.yml looking like:

    auth:
      gitlab:
        token: <YOUR TOKEN>
  • Start working on your branch

  • Create the pull request:

    $ tsrc push --assignee <an octive user>
  • When the review is done, tell GitLab to merge it once the CI passes:

    $ tsrc push --accept

Differences with google repo

We used repo for a while, but found that tsrc had both a better command line API and a nicer output.

On a less subjective level:

  • Good support for Windows (no need for cygwin or anything like that)

  • tsrc tries hard to never do any destructive operation or unexpected actions.

    For instance, tsrc never puts you in a “detached HEAD” state, nor does automatic rebases. It also never touches dirty repos.

    This is achieved by using mostly ‘porcelain’ commands from git, instead of relying on plumbings internals.

  • GitLab support (automate working with merge requests)

Also (and this matters a lot if you think about contribution):

  • Comprehensive test suite

  • Uses PEP8 coding style

  • Written in Python 3, not Python 2

Here are a few features present in repo that are missing from tsrc (but may be implemented in the future)

  • Cloning a specific branch (but see PR #7)

  • Cloning a revision or tag

  • Cloning several repositories in parallel

  • Cloning just one or several groups of repositories

  • Support for other hosting services such as gerrit or github
