The recent git ownership-checking changes (see related bug for full
details) mean we can not run git in non-owned directories.
We have a couple of cases here where we have done a "pushd" to work in
the REPO_DEST context; this is the destination directory that is
inside the chroot so needs to be operated on as "root" (via sudo
calls). This certainly makes sense -- but given the new way of things
it can hide what context each call is working in, which is now very
important. Previously this worked because you could read it; now it's
doing the UID check too, calls in here without sudo now fail.
Remvoe the pushd's and make every call that works in REPO_DEST
explicit with -C, and add sudo calls around it.

A recent(-ish) change in git [1] has exposed a bug in caching that
appears in one very specific circumstance -- updating the
openstack/openstack super-repo [2].
This repo gets a submodule update every time something is pushed. By
using "--git-dir" while the cwd is one-level above the actual repo we
are confusing [1] which is not finding the submodule directories
correctly and giving us an error:
Could not access submodule 'foo'
for every submodule that has updated between now and the last time we
updated the cache. [3]
The git manual does warn about this
If you just want to run git as if it was started in <path> then use
git -C <path>.
Indeed, that is what we want to do in this path. Modify the calls to
use -C.

[3] The result for opendev production is that image builds fail every
time an openstack/* project is checked in; we then race to retry
the build before another commit lands and updates the submodules
again.

The git package pulls in heavy dependencies for just a few rarely
used commands. git-core should be enough (and already uses for Suse).

This breaks having git as a package-install in other elements. And results in diskimage-builder always erasing git on the image.
This reverts commit 3c65025559.

Git is a build-time dependency that should not end up in the final
image should source-repositories be the only element requiring it at
image build time.

When the mirror returns a error, it was trying to interpret the error
message (e.g. <html><title>Internal server error..) as a download link.
By using -f on curl we get an empty reply and an exit code, which, as
we run in set -e mode, aborts.

This is a mechanically generated change to replace openstack.org
git:// URLs with https:// equivalents.
This is in aid of a planned future move of the git hosting
infrastructure to a self-hosted instance of gitea (https://gitea.io),
which does not support the git wire protocol at this stage.
This update should result in no functional change.

Currently we have all our elements and library files in a top-level
directory and install them into
<root>/share/diskimage-builder/[elements|lib] (where root is either /
or the root of a virtualenv).
The problem with this is that editable/development installs (pip -e)
do *not* install data_files. Thus we have no canonical location to
look for elements -- leading to the various odd things we do such as a
whole bunch of guessing at the top of disk-image-create and having a
special test-loader in tests/test_elements.py so we can run python
unit tests on those elements that have it.
data_files is really the wrong thing to use for what are essentially
assets of the program. data_files install works well for things like
config-files, init.d files or dropping documentation files.
By moving the elements under the diskimage_builder package, we always
know where they are relative to where we import from. In fact,
pkg_resources has an api for this which we wrap in the new
diskimage_builder/paths.py helper [1].
We use this helper to find the correct path in the couple of places we
need to find the base-elements dir, and for the paths to import the
library shell functions.
Elements such as svc-map and pkg-map include python unit-tests, which
we do not need tests/test_elements.py to special-case load any more.
They just get found automatically by the normal subunit loader.
I have a follow-on change (I69ca3d26fede0506a6353c077c69f735c8d84d28)
to move disk-image-create to a regular python entry-point.
Unfortunately, this has to move to work with setuptools. You'd think
a symlink under diskimage_builder/[elements|lib] would work, but it
doesn't.
[1] this API handles stuff like getting files out of .zip archive
modules, which we don't do. Essentially for us it's returning
__file__.
