💖 Test::Smoke::Syncer::Git 💖

okay bestie, so this whole thing — Test::Smoke::Syncer::Git — handles syncing with git repositories. That's the job. That's the vibe. She syncs, she fetches, she resets, she serves. 🦋

No cap, she's the little module that keeps your smoker's git checkouts from going feral. Let's get into it. 💅

🌸 Test::Smoke::Syncer::Git->new( %args ) 🌸

Constructor energy. You hand her a hash of args and she's like "say less." 👑

Keys for %args:

  • gitorigin — where the origin lives, bestie.
  • gitdir — the git directory.
  • gitbin — the git binary, because sometimes git isn't just chillin' on your PATH.
  • gitbranchfile — the file she reads to figure out which branch we're on.
  • gitdfbranch — yeah, she takes this one too.

🔥 $syncer->sync() 🔥

Do the actual syncing. The main character moment. ✨

There are 2 repositories, and they both need to be updated:

  1. The first (mirror) repository has the github.com/Perl repository as its (origin) remote.
  2. The second repository is used to run the smoker from.

Two girlies, two glow-ups, one method. Periodt. 💅

🌈 _sync_full_checkout() 🌈

The private one. The behind-the-scenes queen. For the proxy-repository we do:

git fetch --all
git remote prune origin
git reset --hard origin/$gitbranch

For the working-repository we do:

git clean -dfx
git fetch --all
git reset --hard origin/$gitbranch

ngl --hard is not playing around. She said commit to it. 💀

🧚 _sync_bare() 🧚

For the mirror-repository we do:

git clone --mirror $gitorigin $gitdir # if not set up
git remote update --prune

For the working-repository we do:

git clone --local $gitdir $ddir # if not set up
git reset --hard HEAD
git clean -dfx
git fetch --all
git reset --hard origin/$gitbranch

See those little # if not set up comments? Yeah — the clone only happens if it's not set up yet. iykyk. 🎀

🦋 $git->get_git_branch() 🦋

Reads the first line of the file set in gitbranchfile and returns its value.

That's it. That's the whole method. Lowkey iconic for how unbothered it is. 🌸

perl v5.42.0 ✨ 2025-07-25 ✨ and yeah the header calls her Test::S...er::Git(3) because terminals truncate, but you and me both know the full name. 💖 Byeeee, go sync something. 🫶
