Please read: Staging branch removal/reorg

[Kevin Fenzi]

Greetings. 

if you use the 'staging' branch in fedora infrastructure puppet repo,
please read this. ;) 

I've updated our SOP docs on staging: 

http://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/infra/docs/staging.txt

to the new way we will be doing staging. 

Short summary: 

- The seperate 'staging' branch is going away soon. Possibly later this
  week if I can manage it. 

- You will need to use the above method to make changes to staging
  hosts and applications. 

Cutover plans: 

- Disable puppet on all staging machines. 
- Change puppet config on them to correctly look for 'modules-staging'
  first since they are in the staging puppet env. 
- In turn, test puppet runs on them, make any needed changes to prevent
  doom. 
- re-enable puppet on each. 
- Wait a few days and make sure everything is happy. 
- git branch -D staging
- create cron job that diffs and nags us about modules-staging/* items
  per week. 

Is anyone doing any testing or deployment in staging right now that
would be affected by this? Please let me know so I can schedule around
it. 

Thoughts? Concerns? Rotten tomatos?
