Trying out template generation on dogfood/staging

Right now we have no good test platform for this: staging has no build farm, and dogfood has no codehosting. Expect this page to change a lot as we work and learn.

Config

Make sure that generating templates is enabled in the Launchpad lazr config.

Suitable branches

We don't yet know for sure what real-world branches will work right out of the box. We must fix that!

According to wgrant, editing configure.ac to set GETTEXT_PACKAGE ("or something like that") does the trick.

TODO: Easy litmus test to see if a branch will work with pottery.

TODO: Find good real-world sample branch for testing—preferably small but with multiple templates.

Once you have a suitable branch, you can copy it to staging's codehosting using "bzr push -d lp:<branch> lp://staging/<branch> --use-existing-dir"
