Hi all,
Based on earlier discussion, I've decided to support deployment through GitLab while not (yet) removing the ability to deploy through other methods and have proceeded to move some projects without OS-level members to deploy from GitLab.
So far, I've started with (yes, I'm aware cl-dwim is nothing but a redirect):
* cl-couch
* submarine
* cl-dwim
* bdb
Reasons to start with these:
1. Their current sites are deployed using Darcs (now converted to Git) and imported
2. They are among the smallest public_html directories we host
3. They don't have any remaining OS-level users who can access and deploy the project
As a result, the associated OS-level groups as well as the associated /project/* directory hierarchy has been decommissioned as there was nothing that remained to be stored.
With the conversion of these projects the proof of concept (that we can run from /project/*/public_html as well as GitLab deployments mixed across projects) has been realised.
The above means other projects can start deploying their
https://common-lisp.net/project/*/ pages through GitLab as well. I'll send a new mail how to set this up for your projects.
Regards,
Erik.
