2010-06-13Remove python 2.5'ismsLibravatar Brandon Casey1-1/+3
The following python 2.5 features were worked around: * the sha module is used as a fallback when the hashlib module is not available * the 'any' built-in method was replaced with a 'for' loop * a conditional expression was replaced with an 'if' statement * the subprocess.check_call method was replaced by a call to subprocess.Popen followed by a call to subprocess.wait with a check of its return status These changes allow the python infrastructure to be used with python 2.4 which is distributed with RedHat's RHEL 5, for example. t5800 was updated to check for python >= 2.4 to reflect these changes.

2010-03-31remote-helpers: add testgit helperLibravatar Sverre Rabbelier1-0/+51
Currently the remote helper infrastructure is only used by the curl helper, which does not give a good impression of how remote helpers can be used to interact with foreign repositories. Since implementing such a helper is non-trivial it would be good to have at least one easy-to-follow example demonstrating how to implement a helper that interacts with a foreign vcs using fast-import/fast-export. The testgit helper can be used to interact with remote git repositories by prefixing the url with "testgit::". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
