- Allow comparing to a sepcific 'golden' manifest with `--compare-to`
- By default pick the first manifest to compare to, instead of always
comparing against the previous one, which is confusing
- Show line-by-line difference if `-v` given
For example Ubuntu installs a bridge called `virbr0` by default for LXC.
Using this system-provided bridge avoids having to configure one
specifically before gitian building.
This commits makes it possible to override the bridge used by gitian
using the environment variable LXC_BRIDGE. The default is still to use
`br0` as before.
I was running into trouble using gitian LXC INSIDE a VirtualBox VM, because
the 10.0.2.x IP range overlaps with the range that VirtualBox uses for
its internal NAT network.
This commit makes it possible to override the host and guest IP that
is used during LXC image creation and the build, using environment variables:
- `GITIAN_HOST_IP` (default=10.0.2.2, host IP from the viewpoint of the
VM, can be used for both LXC and KVM)
- `LXC_GUEST_IP` (default=10.0.2.5, guest IP from the viewpoint of the
host, effective for LXC only)
When these are not defined the behavior remains the same as before.
To make test builds it can be useful to point gitian at an
alternative repository.
This commit makes this possible by adding a `--url PAIRS` command line
option, that allows to optionally specify where to fetch the code, for
example:
gbuild --url bitcoin=https://github.com/laanwj/bitcoin.git --commit bitcoin=2014_03_...
- Fixes problem where the gitian URL varies for different branches of the same repository
- Explicitly fetching tags using + allows repository to overwrite existing tags (changed tag)
- Fetching branch heads to local heads correctly makes branch names available for commit option
- Fetching both branches and tags at the same time optimizes things slightly
