Flashrom: Repository change
by Patrick Georgi 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

Hello all, Notice: These changes affect users of the coreboot-v2 repository, too! See below (section coreboot-v2 repository). I just migrated the flashrom code into its own repository. This is an effort to untangle our repositories which grew into a wild mess over the years. The new location is svn://coreboot.org/flashrom/trunk The flashrom code in the coreboot-v2 repository will stay for a while to help migration, before it will be "svn rm"d at some point (that is, history stays, but will not be part of a new checkout) == WHAT CHANGED == The new repository is just the same as the old data, with some exceptions: 1. Revision numbers changed. As this is a repository with _only_ flashrom- related commits, the several thousands of coreboot commits don't appear there, and so it's not at revision 4215, but at revision 443. The original revision numbers are added to the commit messages to keep context around if necessary. 2. The directory layout is one of the standard subversion layouts: /trunk contains the main development branch /branches will contain various branches as subdirectories, as the need arises (eg. a 1.0rc branch) /tags will contain copies of certain revisions (eg. of the 1.0 release) 3. The various locations and names of flashrom ("flash_and_burn" etc) are flattened. == WHY CHANGE? == Flashrom really is a separate project from coreboot. When it started, all our projects were stuffed in a single repository. Now, we have a couple of large repositories spanning multiple projects each, and several repositories for single projects. Not every coreboot developer contributes to Flashrom, and vice-versa. They probably shouldn't use the same trac instance (they do now), and having [v2] in the subject of flashrom commit mails is at least inconsistent. So moving flashrom to its own repository gives us more flexibility and consistency. == ISSUES == Unfortunately, the change in revision numbers prevents an orderly migration of checkouts. All I can recommend is the following procedure: 1. make an svn diff in your checkout (to get your changes) 2. move aside the checkout 3. checkout from the new URL 4. apply your diff The following (bourne) shell function might help you with that task PATCH=patch # or whatever your gnu patch is called updateflashrom() { # $1 directory of a checkout cd $1 svn diff > localchanges.diff cd .. mv $1 $1.orig svn co svn://coreboot.org/flashrom/trunk $1 cd $1 $PATCH < ../$1.orig/localchanges.diff cd .. } == COREBOOT-V2 REPOSITORY == coreboot-v2 includes flashrom using the svn:external-feature. Unfortunately, svn isn't clever enough to handle changing URLs (that _is_ a hard problem to solve), so svn update breaks because it tries to update a checkout of the old repository with data from the new repository. What to do: 1. If you have changes in util/flashrom: BACKUP! (cd util/flashrom; svn diff > somewhere.safe) 2. Delete util/flashrom and svn update, it will be re-created with the right configuration. 3. If you had local changes, apply your patch. Regards, Patrick Georgi

Re: [coreboot] Absolute paths in configs and redundant pci_rom ids

svn(a)coreboot.org wrote: > +#pci_rom ../../../misc/kontron-pci8086,27a2.rom vendor_id=0x8086 device_id=0x27a2 Can we improve these relative paths somehow? Maybe use a variable as top instead? $(TOP)/misc/ ... ? Absolute or relative does not matter, but so many parent directories is horrible to have to keep track of. And vendor_id/device_id looks like they will become highly redundant. I'd like to either leave out the filename or the ids. Comments? //Peter
