My goal is to automate retrieval and checkin of new releases into version control systems (git, mercurial, subversion, ...). I'd like to map the contents of the changelog element to the commit message. This might sound weird but I actually have a use case for that - just think about the multitude of webapps comming as source packages (mainly popular php apps) where you only have to change some config options or patch some obscure function: branch, commit, done, later merge the new version and everything is fine. I don't deploy webapps without version- control anymore but it's a pitty to manually fetch the source, unpack into the right branch, commit to the repo... Generating metalink files from software update feeds and retrive release files is a snap thanks to XSLT and metalink.Mastering the version control part is a bit challanging but doable :) Lorenz --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Metalink Discussion" group.
