NAME
mkjigsnap - Create a snapshot tree on a jigdo server
SYNOPSIS
mkjigsnap
-n CD name -m mirror -o output directory
-d dirname -j jigdo file -t template file
-k keyword
DESCRIPTION
mkjigsnap will create the directory tree and snapshot needed for jigit
to work effectively. Once you have created the .template and .jigdo
files that you want to distribute, run mkjigsnap on a mirror machine
and it will set things up for you. You need to specify all of the
options.
-n CD name
Specify the output name for jigit (e.g. warty, sarge-i386-1).
-d dir name
Specify the output directory name to be used for the snapshot tree
(e.g. 20041011, rc1).
-m mirror
Specify the location of the mirror containing all the files
needed. This
must
be on the same filesystem as the output directory, as hard links will
be used to create the snapshot efficiently.
-o output directory
Specify the output location for the jigdo, template, conf and
snapshot. This
must
be on the same filesystem as the mirror, as hard links will be used to
create the snapshot efficiently.
-j jigdo file
Specify the location of the jigdo file to be used.
-t template file
Specify the location of the template file to be used.
-k keyword
Specify the "keywords" which are used in the jigdo file (e.g. Debian,
Non-US, Ubuntu).
