= Updating Bugzilla =

This page describes a process to update the Bugzilla instance running on [http://bugs.webkit.org/ bugs.webkit.org].

== Setup ==

 * Check out Bugzilla sources from CVS (for reference).
{{{
    cvs -d ":pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot" co -d bugzilla.cvs mozilla/webtools/bugzilla
}}}

 * Import original Bugzilla sources from CVS into a local git repository (may take a couple of hours).
{{{
    rm -f ~/.cvsps/\:pserver\:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org\:#cvsroot#mozilla#webtools#bugzilla
    mkdir bugzilla.git
    git cvsimport -d ":pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot" -C bugzilla.git -k mozilla/webtools/bugzilla
}}}

 * Import BugsSite from the WebKit repository into a local git repository.
{{{
    mkdir bugssite.git
    cd bugssite.git
    git svn init -T trunk/BugsSite http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit
    git svn fetch
}}}

 * Create a local git repository to do the merge.
{{{
    mkdir update.git
    cd update.git
    git init
    git remote add -f origin-bugssite ../bugssite.git
    git remote add -f origin-bugzilla ../bugzilla.git
}}}

 * Create a .git/info/grafts file to provide artificial merge points between the two remote repositories.

 * Create a local git branch.
{{{
    git checkout -b master remotes/origin-bugssite/master
}}}
