If there are new repositories or changes in the existing repositories, grok\-pull will perform the necessary git commands to clone or fetch the required data from the master. .sp At the end of its run, grok\-pull will generate its own manifest file, which can then be used for further mirroring. .SH OPTIONS .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-version show program\(aqs version number and exit .TP .B \-h\fP,\fB \-\-help show this help message and exit .TP .B \-v\fP,\fB \-\-verbose Be verbose and tell us what you are doing .TP .B \-n\fP,\fB \-\-no\-mtime\-check Run without checking manifest mtime. .TP .B \-f\fP,\fB \-\-force Force full git update regardless of last\-modified times. Also useful when repos.conf has changed. .TP .B \-p\fP,\fB \-\-purge Remove any git trees that are no longer in manifest. .TP .B \-y\fP,\fB \-\-pretty Pretty\-print the generated manifest (sort repos and add indentation). This is much slower, so should be used with caution on large collections. .TP .B \-r\fP,\fB \-\-no\-reuse\-existing\-repos If any existing repositories are found on disk, do NOT set new remote origin and reuse, just skip them entirely .TP .B \-m\fP,\fB \-\-verify\-mirror Do not perform any updates, just verify that mirror matches upstream manifest. .TP .BI \-s \ SUBPATH\fP,\fB \ \-\-verify\-subpath\fB= SUBPATH Only verify a subpath (accepts shell globbing) .TP .BI \-c \ CONFIG\fP,\fB \ \-\-config\fB= CONFIG Location of repos.conf .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .SH EXAMPLES .sp Locate repos.conf and modify it to reflect your needs. The default configuration file is heavily commented. .sp Add a cronjob to run as frequently as you like. For example, add the following to \fB/etc/cron.d/grokmirror.cron\fP: .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .sp .nf .ft C # Run grok\-pull every minute as user "mirror" * * * * * mirror /usr/bin/grok\-pull \-p \-c /etc/grokmirror/repos.conf .ft P .fi .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .sp Make sure the user "mirror" (or whichever user you specified) is able to write to the toplevel, log and lock locations specified in repos.conf. .SH SEE ALSO .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .INDENT 0.0 .IP \(bu 2 grok\-manifest(1) .IP \(bu 2 grok\-fsck(1) .IP \(bu 2 git(1) .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .SH SUPPORT .sp Please send support requests to the mailing list: .INDENT 0.0 .INDENT 3.5 .sp .nf .ft C http://lists.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/grokmirror .ft P .fi .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .SH AUTHOR mricon@kernel.org License: GPLv3+ .SH COPYRIGHT The Linux Foundation and contributors .\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. .
