Scripts for working with GIN

Scripts for working with GIN server using the GIN client.

Bash script for Linux and macOS

The script was only tested in macOS, it is more advanced than the windows script (we are working on its translation).

sync: Run from inside a repository to upload any local changes to GIN using the GIN CLI.

• Assumes the repository is already initialized and you are logged in into gin (via gin login or via ssh).
• work with submodules.
• Synchronises changes made remotely (on the server) and locally (on the local machine).
• Does not download large files and do not delete large files content after upload by default. Change variable syncopt="remove" in line 19 to modify this behavior. Current option is download, keep and remove.
• Double clicking on the file in a file browser should run the script in a terminal. If the script succeeds, the terminal closes immediately. If there is an error, it will print an error message and wait for the user to press [Enter] or close the window.
• You may need to make the script an executable: open a terminal window in your repository folder (right-click -- New Terminal at folder) and run chmod +x sync. This needs only to be done once.

Batch script for Windows

sync.bat: Run from inside a repository to upload any local changes to GIN using the GIN CLI.

Note: This script has not been fully tested yet

• Assumes the repository is already initialised.
• Does not work with submodules.
• Synchronises changes made remotely (on the server) and locally (on the local machine).
• Does not download large file content by default.
  • Uncomment lines 26 and 27 to perform a full download at the end of the run. The line should be gin get-content . and the following line should be CALL :checkerror ....
• Double clicking on the file in a file browser should run the script in a terminal. If the script succeeds, the terminal closes immediately. If there is an error, it will print an error message and wait for the user to press [Enter] or close the window.

Old scripts

The old directory contains old upload scripts that were written while testing different use cases. They shouldn't be used in their current state, but they may be useful for the future.

initiation scripts

This folder contain scripts to initialize your computer to work with particular gin instance.
