Hello fellow devs,
I've created a script to help me keep my tree/overlays up-to-date,
automatically regenerate metadata, update eix, etc.
It's not anything too sophisticated, but it works for me, so I thought
I'd share it with you guys.
An updated version of the script is available at my gentoo devspace:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~wired/scripts/update
./update -h gives you all available options
edit the script to set the defaults to your liking.
the script expects the following directory structure:
${DATA_DIR}/
main/
gentoo-x86/
gentoo/ (optional)
gentoo-news/ (optional)
overlays/
{various overlays}
overlays_disabled/
{overlays not used}
make.conf
autogenerated, holds active overlay list
imported in /etc/make.conf
${SCRIPT_OUTPUT}
if called with -c, all output goes here
the make.conf is sourced in /etc/make.conf and is generated each time
the overlays/ folder gets updated.
the script is constantly improved and I keep the online version
up-to-date. there are some options that diff/fetch the latest version
for you automatically.
I'll probably add a --sync option soon to make it useful on
systems without a CVS checkout.
hopefully some of you will find it useful.
patches and feedback always welcome :)
