ansible-role-git's Introduction

Ansible Role: Git

Installs Git, a distributed version control system, on any RHEL/CentOS or Debian/Ubuntu Linux system.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):

workspace: /root

Where certain files will be downloaded and adjusted prior to git installation, if needed.

git_enablerepo: ""

This variable, a well as git_packages, will be used to install git via a particular yum repo if git_install_from_source is false (CentOS only). Any additional repositories you have installed that you would like to use for a newer/different Git version.

git_packages:
  - git

The specific Git packages that will be installed. By default, only git is installed, but you could add additional git-related packages like git-svn if desired.

git_install_from_source: false
git_install_path: "/usr"
git_version: "2.26.0"

Whether to install Git from source; if set to true, git_version is required and will be used to install a particular version of git (see all available versions here: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/), and git_install_path defines where git should be installed.

git_install_from_source_force_update: false

If git is already installed at and older version, force a new source build. Only applies if git_install_from_source is true.

Dependencies

None.

Example Playbook

ansible-role-git's Issues

install_from_from_source fails with darwin git

git --version says git version 2.24.2 (Apple Git-127)

the check fails, cause there's some text after the space

- (git_installed_version.rc == 0) and (git_installed_version.stdout | regex_replace("^.*?([0-9\.]+)", "\\1") is version(git_version, operator="!=")) works with the $ removed, but i'm not sure if that was there for a reason

Centos 7 install from source slightly broken

If installing from source, the ansible tasks are configured not to install the OS version of git. Instead the role will install the dependencies of git starting with gettext-devel.
The issue is that gettext-devel itself has a depedency on git, so will install git when gettext-devel is installed, so there is really no value in stopping the install of the git from OS in this case as it will be installed anyway.

This is usually not a problem at all, as Centos 7 base has an old version of git and the new version will always get downloaded and installed over it. However, when you have the ius repo enabled, git2u package is installed with the gettext-devel as a dependency as yum favours git2u over the base ok for providing git command (as it's more recent), meaning the subsequent build from source then fails typically.

Should be a simple fix to make to guarantee reliability. I'll try something and push it back at some point.

Fails on CentOs7

tried with default role as with following vars

role: geerlingguy.git
git_install_from_source: false
git_install_from_source_force_update: false

result
TASK [geerlingguy.git : Ensure git's dependencies are installed (RedHat).] *****
fatal: [default]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "'git_install_from_source_dependencies' is undefined"}

Possibility to set GIT credentials

Is there a possibility to add the config to the role that sets git config --global user.name and user.email from vars?

Git did not update to latest version

I have the following on config:

---
git_install_from_source: true,
git_install_from_source_force_update: true,
git_version: "2.12.2"

The provision went well without error, but when I checked git --version on guest it still says git version 2.7.4.

I'm on:
Linux ubuntu-xenial 4.4.0-71-generic #92-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 24 12:59:01 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux.

What could I've missed?

Add tests and support for Ubuntu 18.04 'Bionic'

As the title says...

CentOS 7: git_install_from_source alone doesn't work anymore

On CentOS 7 the dependency gettext-devel now installs git package. So even if I set git_install_from_source: true, it doesn't help as the git is already installed at the time when the check Get installed version in install-from-source.yml happens.

The workaround is:

git_install_from_source: true
git_reinstall_from_source: true

Deprecation warning?

TASK [geerlingguy.git : Get installed version] *********************************
[DEPRECATION WARNING]: always_run is deprecated. Use check_mode = no instead..

This feature will be removed in version 2.4. Deprecation warnings can be
disabled by setting deprecation_warnings=False in ansible.cfg.

Is this something to be concerned about?

Git installed from APT stil present after install from sources

Hi,
I've installer GIT via the "install_from_source" flag to get the last version.
Seems that the previous version from apt mirror is still present.

subversion-perl not found on CentOS

subversion-perl is not a part of the standard centos distribution. The ansible role should not assume that it would be available.

Has a dependency on running apt-get update

Running this as the first role in a playbook, it fails initially but works if apt-get update is run. Should this be included as a step? If not, it would be helpful if the README suggested this as a dependency.

Debian

Debian 7 Wheezy and similar needs to have the backports repo installed to get git >= 1.8.2
    echo 'deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy-backports main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wheezy-backports-main.list

curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/github/git-lfs/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install git-lfs
git lfs install

Gitlab hook user

I have a custom_hook in gitlab. What user runs it?
echo "$USER"
gives my an empty string.

I need access to user home dir during hook execution

Please add configuration to use https rather than git:// native git addressing (to port 9148)

This is a single line change which will allow all those working in typically restrictive corporate networks to access all git repos current inaccessible on port 9148.
This is what I adopted in my forked repo at https://github.com/danryu/ansible-role-git/blob/master/tasks/main.yml#L17

- name: configure git to use https and not native git protocol
  command: git config --global url."https://".insteadOf "git://"

and it works well in testing. Previous multi-hour hangs caused by composer trying to build drush by referencing dozens of github repos via git:// addresses are now avoided successfully.

Install from source fails for CentOS 8

Hi,

When installing from source on CentOS 8, the python-pip package is not available:

Lack of checksum git sources

There is no verification step to checksum downloaded git tarball.

This project shows a buildbutton in galaxy. How does it work?

I have seen that multiple projects that were created by you contain a travis badge. I am trying based on documentation and examples to implement it as well, but it fails and I do not understand why? Could you explain how it works?

Tag for version 1.2.2 is missing

version 1.2.2 missing from tags

I use tags to lock in stability with my integration. Why was the tag removed? Whats the best way to implement and insure that it does not break my build because a version is no longer there?

task: [geerlingguy.git | Build git.] is always skipping

Hi,

On a fresh CentOS 7.1, with no git installed, I'm trying to install git with this config

git_install_from_source: true
git_version: 2.6.4

But the task "[geerlingguy.git | Build git.]" is always skipping. In the task "Ensure git's dependencies are installed (RedHat)." it seems that the depencency "gettext-devel" is depending on git itself, thus installing the regular git 1.8.4 version from the regular repo. Maybe this causes the issue?

Issue with SSL certificate validation when trying to download git tarball from kernel.org

Seeing issue starting on 10/01/2021 when hitting the 'Download Git' step.

FAILED! Request failed: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:618)>" url: "https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-2.33.0.tar.gz"

Can anyone else verify this issue?

I suspect issue on the server (www.kernel.org), but just want to bring this to everyone's attention

Make dependencies configurable.

Sup Jeff!

For the purposes of adding this role into my own playbooks for testing on unsupported architectures such as Ubuntu 12.10, 13.04, 14.10, 15.10, would you consider making the dependency lists optionally configurable so that when defined the role won't cause an error when a particular package cannot be found by the package manager?

My interim solution is to basically remove your role in these edge cases in favour of something else - what that is exactly is yet to be determined - or I could fork this one and do that myself despite not wanting to.

Kind regards,
Karl

install_from_source causes repeated builds when prefix is not the default

Hi, I'm using your playbook with the following vars:

git_version: 2.26.2
git_install_from_source: true
git_install_from_source_force_update: true
git_install_path: "/opt"

It looks as if the custom install prefix is causing the version check to fail on repeated runs.

I can probably submit a patch over the weekend if you like?

Fedora24 support?

Just running a test via your Ansible role on your Docker image for Fedora24 and this came up.

I'm under the assumption this is a relatively easy fix, and it is outside of the scope of support for this role - so I'm not exactly sure how you feel about it.

No real reason it should be a default... there are so few people using svn these days.
