eit-merge(1) ============ :man source: eit {eitversion} :man manual: eit {eitversion} NAME ---- eit-merge - merge packages on other branches into current SYNOPSIS -------- eit merge [-h] [--in ] [--quick] INTRODUCTION ------------ When a repository is switched to a new branch, remote packages, for mirror size optimization reasons, are kept in current folders exposing the old branch as sub-directory and referenced from there until they get replaced into the repository. At some point in the future btw, older branches would be dismissed and packages in repository on the current branch referencing packages in older branches should be merged back in. This tool does exactly this. OPTIONS ------- "eit merge" supports the following options which alters its behaviour. POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **:: repository branch OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *--help*:: show this help message and exit *--in*=:: work inside given repository *--quick*:: no stupid questions AUTHORS ------- Eit has been accidentally prototyped during a rainy Sunday by Fabio Erculiani who was looking for innovative ways of handling package bumps in Sabayon Entropy repositories. A few months later, Eit saw the light. REPORTING BUGS -------------- Report bugs to https://bugs.sabayon.org or directly to the author at lxnay@sabayon.org. SEE ALSO -------- eit(1)
