Well, thanks to everybody who offered suggestions, but after spending a few days exploring all sorts of fascinating python packaging technology, I've decided to keep doing it the way I've always done it, i.e. just use git pull on the bastion. The final straw was when I realized I would break my little bit of automation which lets my tools introspect the git repo so they can log the branch and commit id they're running:
2022-12-21T00:59:55 INFO dykbot [1671584395] git: main (4f0ef2870376b71b70d08397b273a1ffaf3c3344) I'm sure this is some horrible layering violation, but it's really handy. > On Dec 29, 2022, at 3:43 AM, Kunal Mehta <lego...@debian.org> wrote: > > Hi, > > On 12/28/22 10:31, Roy Smith wrote: >> How do people install their bots into toolforge?
