`builds` and the legacy `branches` are now either/or: `branches` is read only while the merged configuration defines no build at all — a leftover `builds.maxConcurrent` is not one — and ignored with a warning as soon as one exists. Two half-answers to "what does this build run" would silently pull against each other, and the committed configs still carrying both must not change behaviour before they are migrated. A definition therefore gained the settings it was missing: `requirePullRequest` and `docker.enabled`/`network`. Those stay pinned — `stripPinned` now removes them from a branch layer wherever they appear, in a definition as well as in a legacy branch entry. `builds.default` becomes the base every other definition inherits its settings from, never its trigger: `onPush`, `atTimes`, `branches`, and `activeWithin` say when and where *this* build runs. The inheritance is applied after all layers are merged, which is what makes a build invented on a branch inherit the host's sandbox policy instead of the data-class default — otherwise a branch could get a native build past the pinning by defining a job the host has never heard of. Two bugs found on the way, both the same shape as the build command the artifact page used to get wrong: - `FileArtifactStore` read the artifact directories from the plain branch settings, so a job adding its own `artifactDirs` never had them stored. It goes through `GitTallyConfig.buildSettings` now, like everything else that asks what a build runs. - `Watcher.definitionsFor` cached the per-branch definitions by head commit alone, so an edited machine or project config only took effect once the branch moved — on a quiet branch, never. The primary config is part of the cache key now.

# Migration from the Legacy Script
|
|
|
|
The bash script `legacy/gitTally` is deprecated and replaced by this application.
|
|
This document maps the legacy environment-variable configuration to the YAML configuration and lists the manual migration steps.
|
|
See [configuration.md](configuration.md) for the full configuration reference and [deployment.md](deployment.md) for the new service setup.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Mapping
|
|
|
|
Legacy configuration came from environment variables (`gitTally --env` template, sourced env files).
|
|
The new configuration lives in two YAML files: `.gittally.yml` (committed) and `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml` (machine-specific, secrets).
|
|
|
|
Build-level keys below live in a build definition under `builds.<name>`; use `builds.default` for what used to be
|
|
the global value — it is the base every other definition inherits its settings from.
|
|
|
|
| Legacy environment variable | New YAML key |

|
|
| `GITTALLY_BUILD_DOCKER_CONTEXT` | `builds.<name>.docker.context` |
|
|
| `GITTALLY_BUILD_DOCKER_NETWORK` | `builds.<name>.docker.network` — default is now Docker's default network, not `host` |

|
|
| `GITTALLY_ARTIFACT_BUILD_RETENTION_PER_BRANCH` | `artifacts.retentionPerBranch` for a count, `artifacts.retentionMaxAge` for a legacy age value (`h`/`d` suffix); unlike legacy, both limits can be combined |
|

|
|
| `GITTALLY_AUTO_BUILD_BRANCHES` | a build definition with `branches: [...]` selecting them |

|
|
| `GITTALLY_GITEA_STATUS_CONTEXT` | `gitea.statusContext` |
|
|
| `GITTALLY_GITEA_GIT_USERNAME` | `git.account` — in `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml` |
|
|
| `GITTALLY_GITEA_TOKEN` | `git.token` — in `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml`, never committed |
|
|
| `GITTALLY_ARTIFACT_NGINX_SERVER_NAME` | `server.nginx.serverName` — also set `server.nginx.enabled: true` (replaces the `--nginx` flag) |
|
|
| `GITTALLY_ARTIFACT_NGINX_HTTP_PORT` | `server.nginx.httpPort` |
|
|

|
|
| `GITTALLY_ARTIFACT_LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL` | `server.nginx.letsencryptEmail` |
|
|
|
|
New keys without a legacy counterpart: `builds.maxConcurrent`, `artifacts.rootDir`, and `watcher.pollInterval`.
|
|
|
|
## Intentionally Not Ported
|
|
|
|
- Self-install and self-update (`--install`, `--pull`, `GITTALLY_INSTALL_DIR`) — replaced by jar deployment plus `init --systemd`.
|
|
- `GITTALLY_BUILD_DOCKER_PREFLIGHT_COMMAND` and `GITTALLY_BUILD_DOCKER_JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS` — hsadmin-ng-specific; use `builds.<name>.docker.env` if needed.
|
|
- `HSADMIN_NG_*` environment-variable fallbacks.
|
|
- Env-file configuration itself — the systemd `EnvironmentFile` now only tunes the JVM (`JAVA_OPTS`).
|
|
- `GITTALLY_GITEA_DELETED_STATUS_DESCRIPTION`, `GITTALLY_BIN_FORWARD`, `GITTALLY_CONFIG_*` — internal legacy mechanics without a counterpart.
|
|
|
|
## Build History
|
|
|
|
Legacy build history (`.git/git-watch-origin-and-test/build-results.tsv`) is **not** imported; history starts fresh.
|
|
The formats differ substantially (TSV vs. JSON with commit metadata and artifact keys), and retention would prune imported rows quickly anyway.
|
|
Old artifacts under the legacy artifact root remain readable on disk until you delete them.
|
|
|
|
## Manual Migration Steps
|
|
|
|
When migrating to a **different host**, the legacy instance can keep running in parallel until the new one is verified — then skip step 1 here and stop the legacy service on the old host last.
|
|
During parallel operation, give the new instance a distinct `gitea.statusContext`, so the two instances do not overwrite each other's commit statuses in Gitea.
|
|
|
|
Rename the context back to the canonical one **while no build is running**.
|
|
The Gitea client reads the config per call, so a rename between a build's `running` and its final status splits that build over two contexts: the old one keeps the `pending` "build running" entry forever, and Gitea's combined status of that commit stays *pending* although the build succeeded.
|
|
Gitea has no API to delete a commit status; the only way out is to post a closing status for the abandoned context by hand:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: token $TOKEN" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
|
|
-d '{"state":"success","context":"<old context>","description":"superseded by <new context>"}' \
|
|
"$GITEA/api/v1/repos/<owner>/<repo>/statuses/<commit-sha>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Stop and remove the legacy service:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
systemctl --user disable --now gitTally.service
|
|
rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/gitTally.service
|
|
systemctl --user daemon-reload
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Build and place the jar as described in [deployment.md](deployment.md).
|
|
3. In the repository, run `java -jar ~/bin/gittally.jar init`.
|
|
4. Transfer your settings from the legacy env file into `.gittally.yml` using the table above.
|
|
5. Put `git.account` and `git.token` into `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml`.
|
|
6. Verify the effective configuration: `java -jar ~/bin/gittally.jar config:print --full`.
|
|
7. Install and start the new service: `init --systemd` plus the printed commands, see [deployment.md](deployment.md).
|
|
8. Optionally clean up legacy state: `.git/git-watch-origin-and-test/` and the legacy artifact root.
