filter-repo only consists of a few files that need to be installed:
|
|
|
|
* git-filter-repo
|
|
|
|
This can be installed in the directory pointed to by `git --exec-path`,
|
|
or placed anywhere in $PATH. This is the only thing needed for basic use.
|
|
|
|
If your python3 executable is named "python" instead of "python3"
|
|
(this particularly appears to affect a number of Windows users),
|
|
then you'll also need to modify the first line of git-filter-repo
|
|
to replace "python3" with "python".
|
|
|
|
* git_filter_repo.py
|
|
|
|
If you want to make use of one of the scripts in contrib/filter-repo-demos/,
|
|
or want to write your own script making use of filter-repo as a python
|
|
library, then you need to have a symlink to (or copy of) git-filter-repo
|
|
named git_filter_repo.py in $PYTHONPATH.
|
|
|
|
* git-filter-repo.1
|
|
|
|
If you want `git filter-repo --help` to display the manpage, this needs
|
|
to be copied into $MANDIR/man1/ where $MANDIR is some entry from $MANPATH.
|
|
|
|
* git-filter-repo.html
|
|
|
|
The manpage is good enough for me and my systems, but an html-formatted
|
|
version of the same page is provided for those who prefer it. Place it
|
|
where ever you like; I have no idea where such a thing should go.
|
|
|
|
Installing should be doable by hand, but a Makefile is provided for those
|
|
that prefer it. However, usage of the Makefile really requires overridding
|
|
at least a couple of the directories with sane values, e.g.
|
|
|
|
$ make prefix=/usr pythondir=/usr/lib64/python3.8/site-packages install
|
|
|
|
Also, the Makefile will not edit the shebang line (the first line) of
|
|
git-filter-repo if your python executable is not named "python3";
|
|
you'll still need to do that yourself. |
