2021-07-24[mod] reduce enviroment variables in shell scripts to what is neededMarkus Heiser
Not all settings from the 'brand:' section of the YAML files are needed in the shell scripts. This patch reduce the variables in ./utils/brand.env to what is needed. The following ('brand:' settings) can be removed from this file: - ISSUE_URL - DOCS_URL - PUBLIC_INSTANCES - WIKI_URL Tasks running outside of an *installed instance*, need the following settings from the YAML configuration: - GIT_URL <--> brand.git_url - GIT_BRANCH <--> brand.git_branch - SEARX_URL <--> server.base_url (aka PUBLIC_URL) - SEARX_PORT <--> server.port - SEARX_BIND_ADDRESS <--> server.bind_address Signed-off-by: Markus Heiser <markus.heiser@darmarit.de>
