* man/create-usb: Don't recommend summary updatesMatthew Leeds2018-10-021-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit removes the recommendation in the create-usb man page for the user to update the summary in the source repo before using the create-usb command. I'm not sure where I got the idea that create-usb depends on a summary in the source repo. I went back to the first commit that introduced the create-usb command and even using that a summary isn't required, so it seems unlikely that this changed recently. This is good news because the exclusive lock that's taken for summary updates has been causing problems on Endless (due to other processes having a lock for the duration of the 30 second acquire time out period).

* create-usb: Add a --commit optionMatthew Leeds2018-09-251-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently on Endless OS, the OSTree ref for the operating system is something like os/eos/amd64/eos3, so that's what gets passed to `ostree create-usb` when copying the OS to a USB drive (for offline updates). However, when eos-updater checks for updates it pulls the metadata for a candidate commit and in so doing updates that eos3 ref to point to the partial commit being examined as a potential update rather than the deployed commit. This causes `ostree create-usb` to fail with an error like "No such metadata object 7fb045cb2d1f1f3a81bfc157c6128ff443eb56350315b9536bdb56aee0659863.dirtree". OSTree creates deployment refs that look like "ostree/1/1/0" to maintain a pointer to the deployed commit, but create-usb can't use these because it shows up in the summary as just a ref, not a collection-ref. So this commit adds a --commit option to the create-usb command, so we can use the appropriate ref but copy the deployed commit rather than a (potentially partial) update commit.
