git-aggregator 4.0.1

Fetching only required branches

If any of your merges refer to a specific commit, you will probably need to fetch all remotes from the corresponding remote or use any other strategy to get that fetch working, but we recommend to simply add this like in the example above:

fetch_all:
    - oca
    - other-remote

You can specify that you want to fetch all references from all remotes you have defined with:

fetch_all: true

Shallow repositories

To save big amounts of bandwidth and disk space, you can use shallow clones. These download only a restricted amount of commits depending on some criteria. Available options are depth, shallow-since and shallow-exclude.

You can use those in the defaults sections to apply them everywhere, or specifying them in the corresponding merges section, for which you must use the dict alternate construction. If you need to disable a default in merges, set it to false:

./odoo:
    defaults:
        depth: 20
    remotes:
        odoo: https://github.com/odoo/odoo.git
        ocb: https://github.com/OCA/OCB.git
        acsone: https://github.com/acsone/odoo.git
    merges:
        -
            remote: ocb
            ref: "9.0"
            depth: 1000
        -
            remote: odoo
            ref: refs/pull/14859/head
    target: acsone 9.0

Remember that you need to fetch at least the common ancestor of all merges for it to succeed.

Triggers

It’s also possible to specify a command or a list of shell commands to execute after the aggregation (and before the push). The commands are executed into the aggregated directory.

./product_attribute:
    remotes:
        oca: https://github.com/OCA/product-attribute.git
        acsone: git+ssh://git@github.com/acsone/product-attribute.git
    merges:
        - oca 8.0
    target: acsone aggregated_branch_name
    shell_command_after: echo 'my command'

./connector-interfaces:
    remotes:
        oca:  https://github.com/OCA/connector-interfaces.git
        acsone:  https://github.com/acsone/connector-interfaces.git
    merges:
        - oca 9.0
    target: acsone aggregated_branch_name
    shell_command_after:
        - echo 'a first command'
        - echo 'a second command'

A real life example: applying a patch

./odoo:
    remotes:
        oca: https://github.com/OCA/OCB.git
        acsone: git@github.com/acsone/OCB.git
    merges:
        - oca 9.0
    target: acsone aggregated_branch_name
    shell_command_after:
        - git am "$(git format-patch -1 XXXXXX -o ../patches)"
