RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jay Greguske 2011-01-20 17:38:17 UTC
Description of problem:

The sources tarball includes the .git directory from a checkout. This is harmless, but it should not be included.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.16-0

Comment 2 Dor Laor 2011-02-01 10:28:13 UTC
Can you close the bug now?

Comment 3 Jay Greguske 2011-02-10 19:46:47 UTC
Not yet. When a 6.1 advisory is filed I'll add this bug to it. (or Vadim can)

Comment 5 Qunfang Zhang 2011-02-18 06:58:03 UTC
Hi, Jay
This bug is fixed in 1.1.16-1 right?
I can reproduce in 1.1.16-0, but verified in the following build:
https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=156648

Seems the .git directory still exists.

Steps:
1. download virtio-win-1.1.16-1.el6.src.rpm from the above link.
2.#rpm -ivh virtio-win-1.1.16-1.el6.src.rpm
3.#cd rpmbuild/
  #cd SOURCES/
  #tar -xvf virtio-win-1.1.16.tar.bz2
  #ls
   virtio-win-1.1.16                     virtio-win-1.1.16.1-drivers.zip
   virtio-win-1.1.16.1-bin-whql.tar.bz2  virtio-win-1.1.16.tar.bz2
  #cd virtio-win-1.1.16
  #ls -a
   .   Balloon  .git        LICENSE  rmwhite.rb  vioserial  VirtIO
   ..  COPYING  .gitignore  NetKVM   status.txt  viostor

  #cd .git

Ugh, I completely forgot about this bug. I'm not sure a Low/Low bug should be an exception, but I'll double check and build again Monday.

Dor when should I expect new drivers to submit to Winqual for 6.1?

There you go
