dist-git flat layout using sources file (instead of .{package}.metadata use sha512. when using lookaside_upload to upload a new source, sha1 is used, regardless of the type of sha used in sources file.
sources
.{package}.metadata
lookaside_upload
Using the following gist, one can upload using sha512 namespacing: https://gist.github.com/chantra/5d5f21bf0057b5cfb7e6eb4aa835fe6d
I am not sure what the best way to handle this is here. Either providing a CLI argument to specific which sha algorithm to use, or if possible doing some auto discovery to pick up the right.
Something alike:
test -r sources && echo $(cut -f1 -d' ' sources | tr -s '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]') || echo sha1
We may instead want to encourage the use of centpkg-sig (distributed in the centpkg rpm) for uploading using both layouts.
centpkg-sig
Does that work yet?
isn't that option for sha512 and sources file made available through this PR ? (merged so available). If so maybe we can just close this issue (just discovering it now myself when having a look at project)
Yes, it should be.
