Is there anyway the savannah-hackers can help with a synchronization system?
If we go back to 2 months ago, Paul posted the attached proposal for a new web sync mechanism. I implemented the CVS side (sv_sync_www_new.pl), then nothing happened. I guess I will do the CGI part and send it to Paul as a ready-to-go solution. Note that I don't know about FTP sync issues (this will still need rsync+ssh stuff I expect).
In order to update files on commit for the web repository, when a file is committed on savannah, a HTTP POST is sent to http://www.gnu.org/savannah/sync. The post transaction must have a Content-Type of "application/x-savannah-sync". The body content contains one filename per line. Lines are terminated by LF. Filenames are relative to httpd's root directory and such filenames should not start with a "/", or contain references to "..". Filenames are limited to printable ASCII characters.
For example, if the files home.html and software/year2000.html need to
be updated, then a POST might look like:
POST /savannah/update HTTP/1.1
Content-Length: 33
Content-Type: application/x-savannah-sync
home.html
software/year2000.html
If the POST is accepted, then a 200 response is returned.
