Intelligently handle git about dripbox

[jfeldstein]

The flow I've found that works is to commit and push on the local end, then git reset --hard HEAD followed by git pull origin branchname on the remote

[epall]

Yep, that's usually what I do, too

[epall]

I think I have an alternative, better solution with bfaf9f4. There really shouldn't be a git repo on the remote host. Instead, the remote state should look just like the local state, which we can accomplish with rsync at start.

[jfeldstein]

Ok. I've never used rsync before. How do I set this up?

[epall]

rsync comes with OSX, so all you need to do is git pull + pip install .

When you run drip now, choose either -f to get the old behavior or --sync to sync the local copy up to the remote host, overwriting everything and DELETING any files that aren't found in the local copy.

[jfeldstein]

Very interesting. Should be usefull, I just have to figure out the details for my particular setup. Thanks.

I installed pip, and then ran pip install setup.py and pip install dripbox.py. Both told me:

Jeezbook|dripbox: pip install dripbox.py

I've never used pip before (I stick to macports / homebrew), am I doing something wrong?

[epall]

Forget about pip. Just do "python setup.py install"

I rolled back to 1b37595 which put me before the other ssh changes, it works now. I've never seen an ~/.ssh/config file used before, not sure what goes in one.

Fixed SSH config failure — SHA: 6fb9f08

[epall]

jfeldstein: can you confirm that brainsik has fixed this issue for you?

[jfeldstein]

Fixed.

[epall]

Great!
