We use `git describe --tags` to get information about the number of commit since
the last major version, and the sha of the current HEAD. This is added to the
ZULIP_VERSION when a deploy is done from `git`.
Modified heavily by punchagan to:
* to use git describe instead of `git log` and `wc`
* use a separate script to run the git describe command
* write the file with version info to var/ and remove it from the repo

Even where this is actually used for a temporary checkout, it obscures
the relationship between this and $TMPDIR -- and some of our logic
depends on that. In other places, it isn't actually even a checkout.
In all cases, the expanded version is clearer.
This script, and tools/update-prod-static which it relies on,
have kept getting more complex since this conditional was added
in 2013, and the places we rely on GNU features have probably
multiplied beyond `mktemp -d`. It's unlikely this works on
macOS with BSD tools now, and it'd be hard to maintain that way
if it did; drop the pretense.
There's no need to remove this file here -- the whole tree will be
removed a few commands later, and the `tar` command we do first, to
supplement our tarball with various generated files, is quite
selective and wouldn't look at this file anyway.
Unfortunately, GitHub's web UI for generating release tarballs uses
`.gitattributes` to control what files to download, and thus if you
downloaded a source tarball for older Zulip versions using the GitHub
web UI, you'd be missing important files.
We fix this for future releases by moving the blacklist out of
.gitattributes.
Fixes#129.
Checking for whether tests appear is going to be a more stable
long-term check than looking for zilencer, which we might eventually
include in releases.
This file hasn't reflected the actual configuration of any live
installation for some time, nor been part of any tests or other
mechanism to regularly validate it, so it's naturally fallen
behind as we make changes to the set of settings and typically
don't update this file accordingly. Just remove it; all the
documentation functions it serves are already served just as
well by prod_settings_template.py and its ample comments.
static/ serves static files which get copied around per deploy. Since
the webpack stats files need a consistent name and change per deploy,
they can't live in static/.
This fixes a bug that preventing downgrading a Zulip server to an old
version.
Zulip's previous model for managing static asset files via Django
pipeline had some broken behavior around upgrades. In particular, it
was for some reason storing the information as to which static files
should be used in a memcached cache that was shared between different
deployments of Zulip. This means that during the upgrade process,
some clients might be served a version of the static assets that does
not correspond to the server they were connected to.
We've replaced that model with using ManifestStaticFilesStorage, which
instead allows each Zulip deployment directory to have its own
complete copy of the mapping of files to static assets, as it should
be.
We have to do a little bit of hackery with the staticfiles.json path
to make this work, basically because Django expects staticfiles.json
to be under STATIC_ROOT (aka the path nginx is serving to users), but
doing that doesn't really make sense for Zulip, since that directory
is shared between different deployments.
The purpose of this is to move a lot of the log and other generated
files used by the Zulip development environment into a consistent
hierarchy.
We also need to create this in tools/build-release-tarball as well,
since that runs a development environment out of a temporary
directory.
We need to update provision.py to compile the messages files, since
they are needed for the new i18n tests. And of course we need to
include the .mo files in release tarballs; there's a bit of complexity
there around how the tarball archives are created.
