Separate source repo from almalinux-vault

Open metalefty opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hello,

Can we have a chance to separate source repository from almalinux-vault? For example, almalinux-source.

I want to mirror the AlmaLinux source repository but not the entire almalinux-vault.

Currently, following two directories are seen via rsync.

rsync --list-only rsync://rsync.repo.almalinux.org/
almalinux       almalinux repository
almalinux-vault almalinux vault repository

Here are requirements I'm thinking

  1. Create almalinux-source directory and put source repos there.
  2. Souce repo of older versions are supposed to be put in vault
  3. Modify mirror service to return regional mirrors if necessary: for example, this URL can return https://mirrors.somewhere.example.jp/almalinux-source/9.2/BaseOS/Source/ additional to repo.almalinux.org.

We plan to split out vault in the near future anyway so we can easily do this with source as well.

To be clear, you want a target for almalinux-source that is source for the current versions, with old ones moved to vault so you are mirroring on the latest supported sources from almalinux-source and not old ones?

Exactly. The same system with the current almalinux target.
