python-support: update with current status & guidelines

2023-10-14T06:22:53+00:00

This doc was written back in 2019 when we were planning on the Python 3 migration. It isn't relevant anymore, and people are reading it thinking we still support Python 2. Rewrite it to match current requirements and to make it clear there is no support for older versions.

manifest: enable remove-project using path

2023-06-21T14:50:16+00:00

A something.xml that gets included by two different files, that both remove and add same shared project to two different locations, would not work prior to this change. Reason is that remove killed all name keys, even though reuse of same repo in different locations is allowed. Solve by adding optional attrib path to and tweak remove-project. Behaves as before without path, and deletes more selectively when remove path is supplied. As secondary feature, a project can now also be removed by only using path, assuming a matching project name can be found.

manifest: add support for revision in include

2023-05-05T03:40:28+00:00

Attribute groups can now be added to manifest include, thus all projects in an included manifest file can easily modify default branch without modifying all projects in that manifest file. For example, the main manifest.xml has an include node contain revision attribute, ``` ``` and the include.xml has some projects, ``` ``` With this change, the final manifest will have revision="r1" for project2. ``` ``` Test: added unit tests to cover the inheritance Change-Id: I4b8547a7198610ec3a3c6aeb2136e0c0f3557df0 Reviewed-on: https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/c/git-repo/+/369714 Reviewed-by: Mike Frysinger Commit-Queue: Shuchuan Zeng Tested-by: Shuchuan Zeng
