Expected behavior of git-provider

[braghettos]

• check if the TARGET_COMMIT_ID value in the Custom Resource status is empty:

  • if true, it means that the CR has just been created:
    • git clone a specific branch from a specific repo
    • check if one or more files are already present in the target repo:
      • if true, add the file to a temporary .gitignore file
    • check if at least one file must be pushed (it is not available in the target repo - check on file name, not its content):
      • if true (there is at least one file to be git push to a specific branch in a specific repo),
        • the provider checks if the branch exists:
          • if true, the provider will git push the non-existing files to the specified branch
          • if false, the provider will create the new branch cloning a specific one and will git push the non-existing files
        • the TARGET_COMMIT_ID value will be the commit just done by the provider
      • if false (there are no files to push),
        • the provider won't git push anything
        • the TARGET_COMMIT_ID value will be the commit on the target repo that has been cloned
  • if false, it means that the CR has already been created and it is reconciling:
    • do nothing

• check if the SYNCED value in the Custom Resource status is empty:

  • if true, it means that the CR has just been created:
    • the operator is able to perform any task based on the TARGET_COMMIT_ID value:
      • if true (the TARGET_COMMIT_ID has a value), the SYNCED value must be true as well
  • if false, it means that the CR has already been created and it is reconciling:
    • do nothing

Please note: any consideration about the SYNCED value must be done after evaluating the TARGET_COMMIT_ID value.
