Add support for target paths to mock none

Description Craig Ringer 2014-08-02 01:01:54 UTC
$ mock --version
1.1.41


Mock's -r argument requires that the value be the name of a target, sans .cfg, which is looked up in /etc/mock or, if specified, the --configdir .

This is very inconvenient when doing builds with non-default targets, especially if those targets are managed in an SCM. While --configdir works, using it has two issues:

- Mock requires site-defaults.cfg to be in --configdir so you can't keep the targets separate from site-specific configuration that involves local paths; and

- You can't use stock targets from /etc/mock as well as those in a different location

Both these issues would be resolved if mock checked the value of -r to see if it ends in .cfg and if so, treat it as a path.

Any objections? I'll see if I can put together a patch anyway.

Comment 1 Miroslav Suchý 2014-08-03 20:31:21 UTC
Sounds reasonable to me.

Patch to add suggested feature

Comment 4 Craig Ringer 2014-08-14 02:23:22 UTC
Any thoughts on merging this?

Comment 5 Craig Ringer 2014-08-14 03:09:43 UTC
See also #1129932 which might be useful for users of this option.

Comment 6 Miroslav Suchý 2014-10-21 10:32:34 UTC
Commited as 72683cc.

Because it does not apply clean any more, I had to rewrite it little bit. And I edited man page to describe this feature.

Thanks for contribution.
