Description Hristo Iliev CLA 2011-03-30 03:39:59 EDT
The links to the Virgo's repositories (like http://git.eclipse.org/c/virgo/org.eclipse.virgo.kernel.git/tree) produce "Invalid request".

Virgo's GIT repos are not listed under http://git.eclipse.org as well



P.S. You can find all Virgo's repos here:

It appears that /gitroot/virgo, which contains a dozen or so repositories, is itself an empty git repository.

I'm not sure if this is what you wanted, but it is preventing the cgit web frontend from recognizing the "sub" repositories.  If you examine the web frontend, you'll see the 'virgo' repository listed at the top.

http://git.eclipse.org/c/

$ git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/virgo/
Cloning into virgo...
warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.

Since /gitroot/virgo is an empty repository, we could simply turn it into a directory like all the other Eclipse projects and CGIT will be happy.

Turning 'virgo' into ordinary sub-directory seems ok since we do not have such repository.

I wonder what will happen if someone accidentally request http://git.eclipse.org/c/virgo ? Will this trigger git clone and turn the Virgo root directory into GIT repo again?

Done.  Your repos are now visible via the web interface.

No, a Virgo committer would have to intentionally run a git init on the /gitroot/virgo directory.

Works now
