First, install bade, a utility for managing Puppet modules using GIT subtrees:
git clone https://github.com/paramite/bade.git
cd bade
python setup.py develop
Then create a fork of the OpenStack Puppet Modules repository and create a local clone of it.
git clone [email protected]:YOUR_USERNAME/openstack-puppet-modules.git
cd openstack-puppet-modules
Next, create a new branch in your local clone.
git checkout -b NAME_OF_TOPIC_BRANCH
We will use puppet-neutron
for this example:
bade add --upstream https://github.com/openstack/puppet-neutron.git \
--hash ${COMMIT_HASH} --commit
Add some more details (e.g. why you want to add this Puppet module) to the commit message:
git commit --amend
When updating, you use the name of the module as referenced in the [Puppetfile](Puppetfile}, in this case 'neutron':
bade update --module ${module} --hash ${COMMIT_HASH}
As mentioned in the README.md, we use gerrithub for our reviews. You should first make sure your topic branch is rebased and current against the target version for your change. For example, if you wish to update neutron above to the latest revision for master, you would rebase your topic branch to upstream-master. Then, simply submit your review against that branch like so:
git review upstream-master
