Feature #309023, revision 6
Title: Checkout from External Repositories and Packaging

- Buildservice: Evaluation
+ Buildservice: Done
Priority
Requester: Mandatory
Projectmanager: Important

Requested by: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger)

Description:
I'd like to see a way to setup packages that they checkout
automatically from remote repositories (methods: svn, cvs, git, bazar)
and build the package. For building a spec file that is part of the
remote repository can be used.
This will make it easy to connect to upstream projects and build
packages for them.

Discussion:
#1: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) (2010-02-19 11:33:37)
* source service plugin is missing for that
* We should also have a feature which alows us to keep the source
history short to avoid an size explosion of our source repo.


+ #2: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) (2010-09-03 14:26:02)
+ I wrote some basic source services for:
+ * checkout or update from svn or git and package a tar
+ * recompress files (like the former created tar ball)
+ * extract files from archives like tar or zip.
+ spec file generation is out of the focus for this feature, we would
+ need individual ones for each build type.
