eINIT 0.25.3 (Default branch)

eINIT is an alternative init system. It's quite fast, since it can potentially be used without the help of any scripting at all, but it is still flexible and extremely modular. The focus is on speed and parallelisation, mostly with embedded devices and low-downtime servers in mind, and benchmarks do suggest that it's doing a fairly good job at that. It compiles cleanly (and should thus work, provided someone writes appropriate modules) on Linux, FreeBSD, and Darwin/Mac OS X. License: BSD License (revised) Changes:
This version does some more caching, fixes some memory leaks, adds support for psplash, usplash, and exquisite, and hopefully fixes some other issues with the module ordering. Additionally, this version supports modules written in Scheme instead of a weird XML/sh syntax. Modules written in Scheme tend to be much faster, and Guile (the scheme interpreter used) isn't that much bigger than bash.Image

NAME
gbp-pull - Safely update a repository from remote SYNOPSIS
gbp-pull [ --verbose ] [ --force ] [ --redo-pq ] [ --[no-]pristine-tar ] [ --debian-branch=branch_name ] [ --upstream-branch=branch_name ] [ --depth=depth ] DESCRIPTION
gbp-pull updates the debian, upstream and pristine-tar branches from a remote repository in one go. It checks if the update is safe (would result in a fast-forward merge) and aborts otherwise. OPTIONS
--force force a branch update even if this results in a non fast forward update. Warning: Forcing a branch updates makes you lose your modifications. --redo-pq also rebuild the corresponding patch-queue using gbp-pq. Warning: This drops the patch-queue branch if it exists. --debian-branch=branch_name The branch in the Git repository the Debian package is being developed on, default is master. --upstream-branch=branch_name The branch in the Git repository the upstream sources are put onto. Default is upstream. --depth=depth Git history depth, for deepening shallow git clones. --verbose -v verbose execution --pristine-tar Whether to update the pristine-tar branch too. EXIT CODES
When gbp-pull finishes it indicates success or failure with it's exit code: 0 Success. 1 An error occured during the pull, see the printed error message for details. 2 At least one branch couldn't be fast forwarded. CONFIGURATION FILES
Several gbp.conf files are parsed to set defaults for the above commandline arguments. See the [XRef to GBP.MAN.GBP.CONF] manpage for details. SEE ALSO
