Description
After and update from 2.3.0:
- /var/rudder/configuration-repository/shared-files folder is not created
- "rudder.dir.shared.files.folder=/var/rudder/configuration-repository/shared-files" is not added to the local rudder-web.properties configuration file
- Subject changed from Update from 2.3.0 to 2.3.4 doesn't add share file folder to Update from 2.3.0 to 2.3.4 doesn't add shared files folder

- Status changed from Pending technical review to 2
After reviewing the commit, this fix doesn't seem complete to me, and is weirdly mixed in with the login for moving policy-templates from /var/rudder/ to /var/rudder/configuration-repository.
The main problem that I see is that if we're not upgrading from 2.3.0 (ie, /var/rudder/configuration-repository doesn't exist), we will never create the shared-files directory.
Can you please review this fix to:
- Separate this upgrade logic from the existing logic for moving policy-templates from /var/rudder/ to /var/rudder/configuration-repository (these are 2 separate evolutions, and should not be mixed, especially as they are easy to handle separately)
- Make sure that the directories we want to create are always created
Thanks.

This commit is an improvement, thanks.
However, some things are still not reliably implemented:
- You test for the existance of /var/rudder/configuration-repository but the directory you're creating is actually /var/rudder/configuration-repository/shared-files - so if /var/rudder/configuration-repository exists but not /var/rudder/configuration-repository/shared-files, you will never create it! The simpler approach is the best here: test what you want to create.
- You test for the existance of /var/rudder/configuration-repository/.git, but don't create it if it doesn't exist. This needs a bit more work.
I suggest we discuss this together tomorrow.

You're right, it's simply a typo ! We don't need to check /var/rudder/configuration-repository which is created at the first install or in case of migration.

/var/rudder/configuration-repository/.git/ is created by the webapp if it doesn't exist, so the postinst script doesn't need to create .git/
