How to add a configuration (using VCSH and MR)

add_config_vcsh_mr.sh

_config_name="foobar"                                               # Replace "foobar" with the config name
_config_repo="[email protected]:alem0lars/configs-${_config_name}.git" # Replace with the right remote repo

# 1. Create the remote repository named: config-${_config_name}
# MANUAL

# 2. Add to MR
# 2.1 Add to available.d
echo "[\$HOME/.config/vcsh/repo.d/${_config_name}.git]"      >  ~/.config/mr/available.d/${_config_name}.vcsh
echo "checkout = vcsh clone ${_config_repo} ${_config_name}" >> ~/.config/mr/available.d/${_config_name}.vcsh
vcsh mr add -f ~/.config/mr/available.d/${_config_name}.vcsh
# 2.2 Add to config.d
_cur_dir=`pwd`; cd ~/.config/mr/config.d; ln -s ../available.d/${_config_name}.vcsh .; cd ${_cur_dir}
vcsh mr add -f .config/mr/config.d/${_config_name}.vcsh

# 3. Pull the remote repository
mr update

# 4. Add the desired files
# MANUAL (e.g. to add `~/my/config` execute `vcsh ${_config_name} add ~/my/config`)

# 5. Generate the gitignore file for the configuration repository
vcsh write-gitignore ${_config_name}
vcsh ${_config_name} add -f .gitignore.d/${_config_name}
vcsh write-gitignore ${_config_name} # Update the gitignore to allow tracking of gitignore itself

# 6. Modify the gitignore file for the MR repository
vcsh write-gitignore mr

# 7. Commit (and push) changes
mr commit -m "Added ${_config_name}"
