Summary | 0000499: Provide links to sources of older releases? | ||||
Description | User requested this feature in comments at Linux.org.ru I think links to git snapshots for each version should be enough? They don't take server space and generated on-demand ... For example 2020-04 = https://git.cinelerra-gg.org/git/?p=goodguy/cinelerra.git;a=snapshot;h=255d67d0fcabfbcd208f2587a9a75697a15d6349;sf=tbz2 | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Look at https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/pkgs/src/ and you will see only sources for two latest versions there. | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
Sources are being added monthly now like as in the past but not the rpm's as I think those are for packages which are no longer being created due to the advent of AppImage. They are in: https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/src/ |
|
@Andrew-R Am re-opening in order to see if you think I need to start putting the source out there again. If so, I will have to figure out how to do it and whether to include the HTML documentation for Alt/h hotkey. Thanks. |
|
Will close in a couple of days. | |
Thanks a ton (a gigaton!) - it works! | |
@Andrew-R Now if you follow the link on the cinelerra-gg.org website under Downloads to https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/pkgs/src/ you should see January through August of the source files. There is a link that Sam had already set up called "Source code". |
|
Andrew-R We have a plan to put the Src tarballs out there and use the current link. It will only take a few minutes to implement but have to actually find time to do it -- hopefully later today. |
|
Also, I lifted content of https://storage.googleapis.com/google-code-archive-source/v2/code.google.com/cinelerra/source-archive.zip to my (external) hdd, basically just early (2015) development of CinGG. Currently https://git.cinelerra-gg.org/git/?p=goodguy/history.git;a=shortlog;pg=5 goes down to 2015-06-17 Good Guy initial commit , but this version from google sources list commit 3987f8db43a203a34932e418be364844aba2de99 Author: Good1.2Guy <[email protected]> Date: Thu Jan 22 14:47:34 2015 -0700 initial commit as a start. Just few months of work, not sure if anyone want to have those 685135K on server, due to 1) Google source still working and 2) not very high historical demand .... Found via https://linuxvideoediting.blogspot.com/2018/11/istoriya-razvitiya-cinelerra.html |

> but how many months worth would you think is sufficient? Bigger projects tend to keep all their historical tarballs, but they have bigger infrastructure, too. What about six months (four more than current two)? |
|
@Andrew-R Well, GG has 56 of the last src tarballs since 2016 for a total of 6.5 GB on the computer. He thinks it would be OK to put some of them on the website, but how many months worth would you think is sufficient? |
|
is there way to utilize Github releases page ? May be in this case releases will be downloaded from them and not from you. But I'm not sure if you can make releases-from-tags there .... | |
Maybe Sam has a good idea, but we do not keep all of the Source tarballs on the Cinelerra website -- only the last 2 of which each is about 137MB. That amount has to be downloaded and with a slow network takes time. But If the user has a git repo that they created via: git clone git://git.cinelerra-gg.org/goodguy/cinelerra.git my_cin_repo_area where gg is a subdirectory in their current directory than all they have to do is: cd my_cin_repo_area/ git checkout 2020-04 This saves waiting for the network. We have not been able to come up with a solution that appeals to us. |
|
Yes, you can (easily, for me) follow those tags and get tar.gz/bz2 , but user was confused by wget behavior over those links, and they give you exactly snapshot-named tarball, not like officially named ones (cin_5.1.YYYYMMDD-src.tgz). Lets see if Sam can script something server-side? |
|
We started adding a "tag" to all of the releases a year ago to mark the releases per a user request (I think it was for a Sun computer). This provides easy access to the corresponding monthly release. You can see this at: https://git.cinelerra-gg.org/git/?p=goodguy/cinelerra.git;a=summary if you scroll down to under tags as in: 18 hours ago 2020-08 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 4 weeks ago 2020-07 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 2 months ago 2020-06 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 3 months ago 2020-05 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 4 months ago 2020-04 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 5 months ago 2020-03 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 6 months ago 2020-02 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 7 months ago 2020-01 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 8 months ago 2019-12 Version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 9 months ago 2019-11 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 10 months ago 2019-10 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 11 months ago 2019-09 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log 12 months ago 2019-08 version update tag | commit | shortlog | log Please let me know if this is sufficient as I think it fulfills the requirements? |
