NAME

----
|
|
eit-lock - lock repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
eit lock [-h] [--client | --status] [--quiet] <repo>
|
|
|
|
|
|
INTRODUCTION
|
|
------------
|
|
Locking a repository is a way to prevent other Entropy Server
|
|
or Entropy Client instances (depending on given switches) from
|
|
accessing the remote repository.
|
|
In case of Entropy Server locking (default, --client switch not
|
|
provided), *eit lock* tries to acquire a remote lock on each configured
|
|
mirror that only involves other Entropy Server instances (you won't
|
|
be able to update your repositories if you don't own the remote lock).
|
|
|
|
When --client is provided instead, *eit lock* places a lock on remote
|
|
mirrors that prevents Entropy Clients from downloading the repository:
|
|
this is just a band aid that avoids users to get broken packages or
|
|
repositories.
|
|
*eit unlock* does the symmetrical job.
|
|
|
|
|

|
-------
|
|
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.
