salt.fileserver.hgfs¶
Mercurial Fileserver Backend
To enable, add hgfs to the fileserver_backend option in the
Master config file.
fileserver_backend:
- hgfs
Note
hg also works here. Prior to the 2018.3.0 release, only hg would
work.
After enabling this backend, branches, bookmarks, and tags in a remote
mercurial repository are exposed to salt as different environments. This
feature is managed by the fileserver_backend option in the salt
master config file.
This fileserver has an additional option hgfs_branch_method that
will set the desired branch method. Possible values are: branches,
bookmarks, or mixed. If using branches or mixed, the
default branch will be mapped to base.
Changed in version 2014.1.0: The hgfs_base master config parameter was added, allowing
for a branch other than default to be used for the base
environment, and allowing for a base environment to be specified when
using an hgfs_branch_method of bookmarks.
