Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

Requirements

Assumes that git >= 1.7.10 is installed on the system (Chef assumes the same).

Usage

Add the git_better cookbook to your Berksfile or other cookbook-fetching mechanism.

Then, in some recipe file where you are using a deploy resource:

deploy '/srv/www/my_app' do

  # Set `scm_provider` to `Chef::Provider::GitSingleBranch` (instead of `:git`, or default)
  scm_provider Chef::Provider::GitSingleBranch

  repository   'git@github.com:YourUsername/YourProject.git'
  revision     'my_branch'
  user         'deploy'
  group        'www-data'

  # ...
  # etc., other attributes, etc.
  # ...
end

Deploy a Git-based application from the repository git@github.com:YourUsername/YourProject.git but ONLY clone the my_branch branch.

Gotchas

If the shallow_clone attribute of a deploy resource is not included or is set to false, this provider will default to setting depth equal to 1. However, if shallow_clone is set to true, Chef unfortunately forcibly binds this provider to using a depth of 5 instead.
