Description

Motivation

We have git_clone minion jobs which should ensure that a test distribution is always checked out. We should deprecate fetchneedles and point to that new approach

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Invoking fetchneedles notifies about deprecation pointing to a viable alternative
  • AC2: openqa-in-openqa tests do not call fetchneedles
  • AC3: Documentation mentions that it is deprecated and mentions what to use instead

Suggestions

  • Probably best to try out with openqa-in-openqa if everything actually works without fetchneedles, then add a deprecation note to fetchneedles pointing to the alternative
  • Note that fetchneedles is still needed for the initial clone for jobs which don't have CASEDIR/NEEDLES_DIR
