Hi,
I accidentally realized today (in [1]), that RPM has a VCS tag. 396 Fedora
packages use it, yay \o/
The tag is described (at [2]) as:
"""
(Public) upstream source code VCS location. Format <vcs>:<address> with <vcs>
being the VCS command used (e.g. git, svn, hg, …) and <address> being the
location of the repository as used by the VCS tool to clone/checkout the
repository (e.g. https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm.git).
"""
My understanding is the tag should look like this:
VCS: git:https://github.com/fedora-python/marshalparser.git
However, the 396 Fedora packages use it very weirdly.
268 packages omit the <vcs>: prefix (and the .git suffix, but most of the
forges redirect without it, so it's likely moot):
VCS: https://github.com/zenon-prover/zenon
or
VCS: %{forgeurl}
109 packages add an extra scm: prefix (why?):
VCS: scm:git:https://github.com/SIPp/sipp.git
5 packages use git+ssh://:
VCS: git+git@xxxxxxxxxx:ryncsn/memstrack.git
4 of them with a hardcoded commit hash:
VCS:
git+https://pagure.io/rpm-git-tag-sort.git#0b8afd628229a41858f24692946e3b905d6e46c6:
2 packages use git://:
VCS: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/colyli/bcache-tools.git
Only 11 packages use git:, all of them with %{forgeurl0}:
VCS: git:%{forgeurl0}
or
Vcs: git:%{forgeurl0}
Are the 396-11 packages wrong?
