git dockerfile.

git dockerfile.

[Atul Sowani]

Hi,

Greetings everybody!

I am looking for a Dockerfile for git which will _build_ git from source on
ppc64le platform. I want to build git with different versions (say
top-of-the-tree, latest-stable etc.) and it would be good if there is a
dockerfile present alongwith the code which can build the source
code with minimal changes (or better if there is a dockerfile
available for each released version). This will avoid many incoherent
copies of dockerfile floating around the Net.

I tried to search on Internet but haven't come across any dockerfile
which will build git source. I would highly appreciate if somebody
could point me to a source where such dockerfile is available.

I saw some communication on git mailing list, but so far haven't found
any docker file. If there is no dockerfile available, I am willing to create
one for ppc64le and commit it to git source. Please advise.

Thanks,
Atul.

Perhaps you can learn to ask the list archive ;-)

Going to http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/
and then asking for "dockerfile" in the search box at the bottom
finds

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/276504/match=dockerfile

Clicking on the "Subject:" line there would show the article in
context.

Hi Junio,

Thanks for the link. However I had seen this communication but could
not understand the progress over it, i.e. whether Gawade P. ever
submitted the dockerfile or not. Hence the confusion.

I hope Gawade P. has already submitted the dockerfile and it will soon
be available in git source repository after review.

Thanks,
Atul.
