Repositories used by the Gitaly test suite

Gitaly uses two test repositories. One should be enough but we got a second one for free when importing code from gitlab-ce.

These repositories get cloned by make prepare-tests. They end up in:

  • internal/testhelper/testdata/data/gitlab-test.git
  • internal/testhelper/testdata/data/gitlab-git-test.git

To prevent fragile tests, we use fixed packed-refs files for these repositories. They get installed by make (see _support/makegen.go) from files in _support.

To update packed-refs run git gc in your test repo and copy the new packed-refs to the right location in _support.

Example:

Let's add a new branch to gitlab-test.

git clone internal/testhelper/testdata/data/gitlab-test.git _build/gitlab-test

cd _build/gitlab-test
# make new branch etc.
git push origin my-new-branch # push to local copy of gitlab-test

cd ../..

git -C internal/testhelper/testdata/data/gitlab-test.git push origin refs/heads/my-new-branch # push to public, official copy of gitlab-test
git -C internal/testhelper/testdata/data/gitlab-test.git gc
cp internal/testhelper/testdata/data/gitlab-test.git/packed-refs _support/gitlab-test.git-packed-refs
