Robert Kahlert commented on JENKINS-12125: ------------------------------------------ I am with Samuel on this one. Just making the backup name editable, so that people can take out the $DATE part would be sufficient. I can check it into SVN myself, that's not the issue. > Push backups in remote git repository (or any other SCM) > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JENKINS-12125 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12125 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: thinBackup > Reporter: Samuel Stirtzel > Assignee: Thomas Fürer > Priority: Minor > > Hi, > it would be nice if the backup could be pushed in a remote SCM (e.g. in my > configuration: git). > Summarized it could be done like this: > * Check if the target directory is in a SCM (for git: check if .git directory > is present) > * Automatic backup > * Stage the backup files and commit > * Push to origin (the remote repository) > Alternative to that, let the user run a shell script after backups. > Edit: > When stored in a SCM the naming scheme is disturbing, as the files should get > overwritten each time a backup is running. > So if thinBackup creates "backups/FULL-2011-12-01_12-15/" and > "backups/FULL-2011-12-08_12-15/" it is not possible to directly put them in a > SCM without moving files around or it will create duplicate content. > -- > Regards > Samuel -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
