username/password case. For cache to store change: * By default, cache only last 900 seconds, gitsync will break after that. See https://git-scm.com/docs/git-credential-cache. * The test won't work with cache since the test don't have access to the default unix socket location; XDG_CACHE_HOME override also can pre-create a socket in advance. * `store` put the credential into a file, much easier to debug than cache. * Considering anyone have access to the pod already able to get the credential via environment variables or yaml configs, so put it in file won't make it less secure. For the new password test: 1. askpass_git.sh provided to simulate a git with password challenge. 2. Need and only need to similate "clone" action, need to bypass other actions like config/credential setup. 3. See `credential fill` is the official git action to ask password, see https://git-scm.com/docs/git-credential. This change resolved issue #196. |

git-sync
git-sync is a simple command that pulls a git repository into a local directory. It is a perfect "sidecar" container in Kubernetes - it can periodically pull files down from a repository so that an application can consume them.
git-sync can pull one time, or on a regular interval. It can pull from the
HEAD of a branch, from a git tag, or from a specific git hash. It will only
re-pull if the target of the run has changed in the upstream repository. When
it re-pulls, it updates the destination directory atomically. In order to do
this, it uses a git worktree in a subdirectory of the --root and flips a
symlink.
git-sync can pull over HTTP(S) (with authentication or not) or SSH.
git-sync can also be configured to make a webhook call upon successful git repo synchronization. The call is made after the symlink is updated.
Building it
# build the container
make container REGISTRY=registry VERSION=tag
# build the container behind a proxy
make container REGISTRY=registry VERSION=tag \
HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxy_address>:<proxy_port> \
HTTPS_PROXY=https://<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>
# build the container for an OS/arch other than the current (e.g. you are on
# MacOS and want to run on Linux)
make container REGISTRY=registry VERSION=tag \
GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64
Usage
# run the container
docker run -d \
-v /tmp/git-data:/tmp/git \
registry/git-sync:tag \
--repo=https://github.com/kubernetes/git-sync
--branch=master
--wait=30
# run an nginx container to serve the content
docker run -d \
-p 8080:80 \
-v /tmp/git-data:/usr/share/nginx/html \
nginx
Webhooks
Webhooks are executed asynchronously from the main git-sync process. If a webhook-url is configured,
when a change occurs to the local git checkout a call is sent using the method defined in webhook-method
(default to POST). git-sync will continually attempt this webhook call until it succeeds (based on webhook-success-status).
If unsuccessful, git-sync will wait webhook-backoff (default 3s) before re-attempting the webhook call.
Usage
A webhook is configured using a set of CLI flags. At its most basic only webhook-url needs to be set.
docker run -d \
-v /tmp/git-data:/git \
registry/git-sync:tag \
--repo=https://github.com/kubernetes/git-sync
--branch=master
--wait=30
--webhook-url="http://localhost:9090/-/reload"
