CI to automate build of cargo lockfiles on different Alpine releases for git-annex aports
https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/tree/master/community/git-annex
![]() The existing `sed | find | perl` hack in the Makefile was not including the man pages in the generated git-annex.cabal. I couldn't figure out why it didn't work; running the `find | perl` part of the command *did* list the man pages ... So, I set up a new hack. It produces a cleaner .cabal file and includes the man pages in the sdist. I changed git-annex.cabal and its generation as follows: - git-annex.cabal is now generated by a here document in git-annex.cabal.template.sh. The here document has inline file list insertion, whereas before the file lists were inserted with sed. - The 'Extra-Source-Files:' field now only includes the non-source files: the man pages, plain text documentation, and license. - The source dependencies are now listed in 'Other-Modules' sections in the 'Executable' and 'Test-Suite' sections. The list of dependencies is generated by `gen-other-modules.sh`. - The ./debian and ./doc are no longer included in the sdist package. These were not installed anywhere by `cabal install`. A user that wants them could clone the git repo. Running the tests with cabal is not yet working, i.e. cabal configure --enable-tests && cabal build && cabal test and cabal install --enable-tests fail to find Utility.Touch. However, I did not break this: it doesn't work for the git-annex package on Hackage either. Next step is to figure out how to deal with HSC in cabal ... or not bother, because `make test` works. I'm worried this is a cabal bug. To test building from sdist, I've been running cd ../.. ; cabal sdist ; cd dist ; tar xf git-annex-3.20120605.tar.gz && cd git-annex-3.20120605 && rm -fr /tmp/git-annex && cabal install --prefix=/tmp/git-annex && tree -A /tmp/git-annex in the dist directory. Using `cabal-dev install` is a better test, but is very slow. |

git-annex allows managing files with git, without checking the file contents into git. While that may seem paradoxical, it is useful when dealing with files larger than git can currently easily handle, whether due to limitations in memory, checksumming time, or disk space.
