Repository backups

Latest revision as of 16:02, 20 March 2014

All repositories hosted on Puszcza are backed up on daily basis at 03:06 UTC. Backups are available for download via:

• anonymous FTP from ftp://download.gnu.org.ua/pub/snapshots/
• rsync gnu.org.ua::snapshots

The backup method and naming scheme depends on the type of the repository. In the discussion below, project stands for the system name of the project.

[edit] Git Repositories

Each Git repository is archived to

 project.commit.tar.gz

where commit is the latest commit ID (abbreviated to the first 8 digits). The file project.latest.tar.gz is a symbolic link to that file.

[edit] SVN Repositories

For each SVN repository, the following files are available (rev stands for the latest revision number):

• project.rev.dump.gz: A gzipped dump of the repository.
• project.dump.gz: A symbolic link to the above.
• project-snapshot.tar.gz: A snapshot, obtained by running svn export project/trunk and archiving it with tar -z.

[edit] CVS Repositories

An exact copy of each CVS repository is provided in file project.tar.gz.

[edit] Mercurial Repositories
