Right,
but how I can determine what comments belongs to?
Like # Use network installation belongs to installation
I should detect if url is present and add a comment after that.
All those actions are going to be done by python scripts.
I have been working on project called preupgrade-assistant
which has an aim to migrate RHEL 6 -> RHEL 7 machine
via kickstart.
preupgrade-assistant is written in Python.
Is there any IRC channel where we can discuss it?
Greetings.
