Hi Today I presented obsgit[1] in the oSLO2020, but was a very short talk[2] with no time for questions (and I could not stay a bit longer in the chat room) Maybe we can use this thread to start the discussion and share some of the questions and ideas. For example, yesterday I learned something about OBS and Kanku that can potentially change the way that we can import the project from git back to OBS (for building or testing). I was aware that the .spec files are totally isolated from internet, but this is not true for enabled _service files. The previous Leap release manager (Ludwig Nussel) explained to me that this enable the possibility that instead of importing the full project, I could create an ad-hoc _service that fetch directly from Git and LFS all the components. OBS could have now the chance of detecting that some of the assets are already in the cache, and will avoid some downloads, and from the user perspective will be very fast, as no tgz gets uploaded. Because we create the _service, we can represent a Git branch accurately in OBS, as all the package _services will be pointing to the correct Git branch. Transient OBS branches will be now cheap from the user PoV, and will enable faster testing and experimentation for big projects. This possibility open new questions, like for example what to do if the package already have a _service, but his kind of idea can shape the solution at the end. P.S I am not sure that the talk was recorded, but I think that the slides give a clear idea about what we love to achieve: develop something as massive as Factory in Git and building it in OBS with all the guarantees and features that we have now.
