The Neon Git repositories are at https://invent.kde.org/neon

All KDE contributors can commit to Neon/* branches or any branch for repositories under neon/, forks/, neon-packages/ directories, it will reject commits to other branches.

They are clones of the repositories used by Debian pkg-kde team https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/. Any commits made to a Debian pkg-kde repository will be pulled into Neon Git immediately.

Add this to ~/.gitconfig

[url "[email protected]:"]
    insteadOf = invent:
[url "[email protected]:"]
    pushInsteadOf = invent:

and clone with:

git clone invent:neon/kde/khotkeys

Anonymous Access

If you don't have a KDE account you can still clone the repo at

git clone https://invent.kde.org/neon/kde/khotkeys

Settings up new repositories

This is now done through invent.kde.org which can also be set to clone another git repo

Pushing merges

KDE git has a hook to prevent 100s of commits in one push but sometimes that is what we need if we are merging in from e.g. Debian. Push with

git push -o notification.summarise

The Set Up

  • neon:gitolite-admin has hooks in .gitolite/hooks/common which are symlinks to neon-hooks/ that get added to new repositories
  • .gitolite/hooks/update is the normal hook from gitolite that does whatever gitolite needs
  • neon-hooks/post-receive pings jenkins to start a new build
  • neon-hooks/pre-receive rejects pushes to non-neon branches and sets up remote to Debian if it exists
  • neon/website and neon/releases.neon.kde.org have a post-receive hook to update their websites (no longer used for websites at least)
  • cron on the gitolite server runs bits to restart the servers and run the check scripts:
# Hourly sync of new repositories from salsa.debian.org
@hourly python3 ~/config-sync/gitolite-admin/maintenance/update-gitolite-setup.py
# Daily full sync of all repositories from salsa.debian.org
@daily python3 ~/config-sync/gitolite-admin/maintenance/update-gitolite-setup.py --fetch-all-repositories
