From 916fb5347ab8d441e92ec6bfb13f9e9fef524ff7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Romain GARBAGE Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2024 11:32:55 +0100 Subject: guix: download: Add support for git repositories. * guix/scripts/download.scm (git-download-to-store*): Add new variable. (copy-recursively-without-dot-git): New variable. (git-download-to-file): Add new variable. (show-help): Add 'git', 'commit', 'branch' and 'recursive'options help message. (%default-options): Add default value for 'git-reference' and 'recursive' options. (%options): Add 'git', 'commit', 'branch' and 'recursive' command line options. (guix-download) [hash]: Compute hash with 'file-hash*' instead of 'port-hash' from (gcrypt hash) module. This allows us to compute hashes for directories. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix-download): Add @item entries for `git', `commit', `branch' and `recursive' options. Add a paragraph in the introduction. * tests/guix-download.sh: New tests. Move variables and trap definition to the top of the file.
