Re: What's cooking in git.git (Mar 2010, #06; Wed, 24)

Excerpts from Junio C Hamano's message of Wed Mar 24 20:41:16 -0400 2010:

* bw/git-completion-rpmspec (2010-03-20) 1 commit
 - Add a git-completion rpm subpackage to the spec

Shipping bash-completion as part of RPM package; since Todd
Zullinger who packages git for Fedora joined the thread, I am hoping
that I can defer the direction of the final version to the
discussion between Todd and Ben.

I think Todd made a good case for making this part of the core git
rpm.  Ian's patch would be more suited for inclusion in this case.
The remaining question is whether to stick it in
/etc/bash_completion.d or in /usr/share/bash_completion.d (the
triggers vs direct bit).

The closer the core spec file is to the one that distro's use, the
better.  This is a reciprocal benefit, I think.

I'm still interested in Todd's (and anyone else') thoughts about
adding the git-daemon, etc, sub-packages as part of the stock spec
file.  Are they too distro specific for inclusion?  (eg: which user
should run git-daemon[1]?  default repo/cgi location for gitweb?)

Thanks
-Ben

[1] The fedora spec sees git-daemon run as 'nobody' but imho, this isn't
    a good choice.  A separate 'git' user would be my preference.
