[Rock-dev] Autoproj v2

[Thomas Roehr]

Hey Sylvain,

I briefly dealt now with autoproj v2 and therefore just a brief wrapup
what I found and parts of it should be mentioned in History.txt or
Changelog:

Changes:
- configuration is now in <workspace>/.autoproj, e.g.
   .autoproj/config.yml formerly in autoproj/config.yml
- .gems/ is obsolete since bundler is in use now (and default is
~/.autoproj/gems/) (regarding Gemfile see question below)

Dropped functionality:
- 'amake -n <package>'
  "autoproj: wrong package selection on command line, cannot find a
match for -n"


Open questions for me:

1. in order to install (manually) a gem into a workspace -- add the gem
to .autoproj/Gemfile or .autoproj/Gemfile.lock and then bundle install?

2. is there a good way of manually installing autoproj -- without using
the bootstrap script, e.g., something comparably to (with autoproj v1)

export GEM_HOME=$PWD/.gems
gem install autoproj
.gems/bin/autoproj envsh

3. what is the redirection good for?
        BUNDLE_GEMFILE=<dev>/install/gems/Gemfile
	install/gems/Gemfile.lock --> .autoproj/Gemfile.lock
	install/gems/Gemfile.lock --> .autoproj/Gemfile.lock

Best
Thomas
