#8369: Small improvements to ./sync-all ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nwf | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: lowest | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- ./sync-all get in a local clone does not use local submodules. That is, if I {{{ git clone ghc ghc-tmp; cd ghc-tmp; ./sync-all get }}} the contained clones come over just fine from ghc/... into ghc-tmp/..., but the submodules are fetched over the network connection. I think the attached patch brings the "fetch from the clone source if possible" behavior over to submodules, though possibly not in an ideal way. Separately, I find that I want to run shell commands in each repository; adding a "shell" verb is trivial and a second patch is attached. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8369 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
