+* Recreating the schema bindings:
+
+  $ rm tmp.sqlite
+  $ sqlite3 tmp.sqlite < sql/hydra.sql
+  # $ ~/bin/genfkey tmp.sqlite > sql/fk-triggers.sql
+  $ perl -MDBIx::Class::Schema::Loader=make_schema_at,dump_to_dir:./lib -e 'make_schema_at("Hydra::Schema", { relationships => 1, moniker_map => sub {return $_;} }, ["dbi:SQLite:tmp.sqlite"])'
+
+* Running the test server:
+
+  $ DBIC_TRACE=1 ./script/hydra_server.pl
+
+* Setting the maximum number of concurrent builds per system type:
+
+  $ sqlite3 hydra.sqlite "insert into SystemTypes(system, maxConcurrent) values('i686-linux', 3);"
+
+* Creating a user:
+
+  $ sqlite3 hydra.sqlite "insert into Users(userName, emailAddress, password) values('root', 'e.dolstra@tudelft.nl', '$(echo -n foobar | sha1sum | cut -c1-40)');"
+
+  (Replace "foobar" with the desired password.)
+
+  To make the user an admin:
+
+  $ sqlite3 hydra.sqlite "insert into UserRoles(userName, role) values('root', 'admin');"
+
+  To enable a non-admin user to create projects:
+  
+  $ sqlite3 hydra.sqlite "insert into UserRoles(userName, role) values('alice', 'create-projects');"

+
+* Changing the priority of a scheduled build:
+
+  update buildschedulinginfo set priority = 200 where id = <ID>;
+  
+
+* Steps to install:
+
+  - Install the Hydra closure.
+
+  - Set HYDRA_DATA to /somewhere.
+  
+  - Run hydra_init.pl
+
+  - Start hydra_server
+
+  - Visit http://localhost:3000/
+
+  - Create a user (see above)
+
+  - Create a project, jobset etc.
+
+  - Start hydra_scheduler and hydra_runner
+
+
+* Upgrade notes:
+
+  alter table builds add column longDescription text;
+  alter table builds add column license text;
+  alter table projects add column homepage text;
+  alter table builds add column homepage text;
+  alter table BuildProducts add column defaultPath text;
+  alter table BuildResultInfo add column failedDepBuild integer;
+  alter table BuildResultInfo add column failedDepStepNr integer;
+  alter table ReleaseSetJobs add column jobset text not null default "trunk";
+  === (DB dump/load needed after Sqlite upgrade) ===

+  create index IndexBuildInputsByDependency on BuildInputs(dependency);
+  
+  create index IndexBuildsByTimestamp on Builds(timestamp);
+  
+  
+* Job selection:
+  
+    php-sat:build [system = "i686-linux"]
+    php-sat:build [same system]
+    tarball [same patchelfSrc]
+    --if system i686-linux --arg build {...}

+
+  delete from builds where finished = 0 and not exists (select 1 from buildschedulinginfo s where s.id = builds.id and busy = 1);
