hi Here is what's happening at the moment : 1) All the srpms published so far from RHEL are being imported into git repos, and brought into git.centos.org to be hosted under 'The CentOS Linux' group. 2) CentOS-5, CentOS-6 and CentOS-7 content will be hosted in 'c5', 'c6', 'c7' branches, with no content in master, other than a readme file pointing to the branches. Only '7' content being imported right now, we will try and retrofit the 5 and 6 content in the coming weeks. 3) there are components for all the distro pieces in bugs.centos.org already ( if not, please shout and someone will create them ) This is how we can run the branding hunt best : A) find a component that needs a patch B) clone the git repo that matches the srpm name that component came from. eg: git clone https://git.centos.org/git/distro!kernel.git C) create a patch for what you want the change to be D) make sure you also add a patch to the .spec file with your name and your email ID, this is what will get credited with the change E) open an issue report at bugs.centos.org, against Project: CentOS-7 and component that you want to patch. Write up details, attach patch. F) Goto A What we also need to do is establish a whitelist of components that people have looked at and found nothing. Please dont blanket assume that things like lib* or perl* dont need changes, only consider whitelisting code you have physically checked using reasonable means. For these things, please also open issue reports at bugs.centos.org and mention Whitelist in the subject of the issue report, again selecting CentOS-7 as the Project and the component name as required. Another thing to keep in mind with the whitelist is that its OK to check stuff other people might have already checked, the more whitelist reports we get, the better is the overall confidence in getting it in. If you need to patch a binary component, dont do a binary diff - just attach the new blurb that needs replacing in and mention the blurb that needs to go, we will try and automate that. Questions, reports, comments : come find us in #centos-devel on irc.freenode.net and centos-devel list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ). Also, keep in mind that the git repos are only going to be online at git.centos.org in about 8 hrs to 12 hrs time ( midday UTC June 3rd ), in the mean time you can still start off by consuming srpms from here : http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/rhel/rc/7/ - KB -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
