Y2M - the YaST2 meta tool
This is a simple tool to help you to checkout all YaST modules, while
maintaining the directory structure of the former svn repo.
With this tool you can
* checkout all or just your favorite modules
* switch all (or favorite) modules to a specific branch
* run git pull on all (or favorite) modules
with just one command.
Note: There is no need to use this tool.
You can do everything manually as well.
Installation:
cd $CHECKOUTDIR
git clone git@github.com:yast/yast-meta meta
cd meta
ln -s `pwd`/y2m ~/bin/
Usage:
y2m <command> [<modules>,..]
commands
clone : run git clone for <modules>
up|pull : run git pull for a <modules>
co|br <name> : run git checkout to switch to branch <name> for <modules>
modules
'ALL' : applies to all current known yast modules
'FAV' : applies to only your favorite modules, set in ~/.y2m
<lowercase string> : applies to the named modules
Reserved Branch and Tag Name Prefixes
In order to maintain a certain consistency between the modules there are
some prefixes that you should *not* use for your own branches/tags.
They are reserved for openSUSE or SLE releases.
Reserved prefixed for branches and tags:
* 'openSUSE-'
* 'SLE-'
* 'Code-'
