There's a plugin that I would like to add features since it is not quite usable (in a practical way). Do you create a new plugin or is it allowed to update the existing one?
You should be able to add to an existing one. Ideally the plugin's page on the plugin portal ( http://grails.org/plugins/) should have a link to the source which is usually in subversion or git. If it's in Subversion or a private GIT repo you might have to email the grails developer list ( http://grails.org/Mailing+lists) and ask for permission to the repo. If it's in a public GIT repo you should be able to fork it, make your changes, and submit a pull request.
For example the Grails Cloud Foundry plugin ( http://grails.org/plugin/cloud-foundry) source code is located at ( https://github.com/grails-plugins/grails-cloud-foundry)
If for some reason whoever owns the repo or plugin isn't working on it anymore it may make sense to create your own. ( http://grails.org/Creating+Plugins)

I'm beginning to suspect that this is not possible. I was hoping that I could set up custom access control in Gerrit so that a particular role (defined in TF) would not have read access to a specific branch in a repo.
However, it appears that users with this role are unable to clone the repo at all. I was hoping they'd be able to clone and just not beb able to check out the restricted branch.
Just wondering if anyone else has enountered this and might be able to confirm the behaviour I'm seeing. I did see another thread here recommending gitolite for partial copies but I'm restricted to using TF/Gerrit.
Thanks!
I'm looking for a way to automatically add +2 permissions for certain refs for a lot of projects in Gerrit and unfortunately it seems there are no API calls to modify access rights, only to read them. Do you have any idea how to modify refs permissions for a big amount of projects?
I'm using Gerrit 2.9.
Thanks.
One possibility would be to create a batch script to modify the project.config for those projects and commit them back to gerrit.
This is how you can checkout the project.config for the All-Projects, it works the same for other projects: http://blog.bruin.sg/2013/04/how-to-edit-the-project-config-for-all-projects-in-gerrit/
Simply put:
Create list of project you want to change
Iterate over the lest
Checkout the refs/meta/config ref
Use script to modify project.config
Commit and push back to the server
More information about the project.config: http://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-project-config.html
I'm developing a grails application that uses export:1.6 plugin, but for particular reasons in some cases the result of an action using services is wrong, so I had to get in the methods of the plugin and I had to make son modifications inside the plugin, trouble comes when I want to commit it in our SVN repository (because we are working in a develop team), I'm going to update the app with the plugin modified, but when another person downloads it, the original plugin is going to be originally installed. So I thought to create a new plug in, but, do you have any another suggestion? or if the best way is to create a new plugin, how can I publish it in our Repo? oris it possible to download it with my changes?
This question is similar to this one. In your case, you are better off creating a new plugin.
I am new to iOS development. We are using SVN for code repository.
I wanted to know whether there is a way to set some rules on code check in? i.e. suppose we have a code guideline and we want everyone in the team to adher to it religiously. We can set some rules via which automatically it can be found out whether the person has followed the guidelines or not.
Something like TFS check in policies?
You can use on server side the so called "hooks".
Most important is the pre-commit-hook
You can found them on the server inside the repository in the directory hooks
You can place any executable there and it will be called during commit. There is a svncommand called svnlook which you can use to look directly into the transaction to be committed.
In each repository there is one example for each hook SVN provides. These templates showing a sample implementation with some meanigful bash script.

I am trying to migrate the setup here at the office from SVN to Git and am setting up Redmine as the host for our projects and issue management (Currently we use a version of Gforge + SVN). I should preface by saying that I'm an embedded C software developer by day and have basically zero experience with Rails or web apps, but I like trying new things so I volunteered to set up the project management tools which will take us into the future.
I have Redmine setup and am using Gitolite as the Git repo manager. Additionally, I am using the ericpaulbishop/redmine_git_hosting plugin to facilitate automatic public ssh key pushing to Gitolite and automatic repo creation when we register a new project. Everything seems to work except the repo view within the project does not keep track of the changesets. (The "History" is just empty, although when you view the files, it does show the latest version correctly)
I copied the post-receive hook from the plugin's contrib directory to the .gitolite/ common hooks, but again I know little about Ruby and how these gitolite hooks work so I don't know how to debug this. I notice there are log messages and things in the hook, but I have no idea where those are printed, etc...
I even tried the Howto on the Redmine wiki, HowTo setup automatic refresh of repositories in Redmine on commit:
#!/bin/sh
curl "http://<redmine url>/sys/fetch_changesets?key=<your service key>"
Any ideas on where I start debugging? I've been able to resolve every problem up to this point, but I'm a little stuck now. The plugin doesn't make it obvious how this is supposed to work, and to be honest, I'm not even sure if this is a problem with Redmine not reading the repo correctly (or at all), or gitolite not communicating as Redmine expects, etc...
I guess I could answer this...
I checked the issues under the Github page and I found this on:
https://github.com/ericpaulbishop/redmine_git_hosting/issues/89
Which was pretty much exactly my problem. This does appear to be a small bug in the plugin, but you can work around it by changing Max Cache Time to "1 minute or until next commit". This immediately fixed my problem. I simply left it like that but one of the posters claimed that you could change it back to until next commit and it works from then on...
