Setting Up Concourse

# Make sure I use the same version as the server.
% fly -t main sync

# Login.
% fly login -t main -c https://concourse.k.maelvls.dev/
logging in to team 'main'

navigate to the following URL in your browser:

  https://concourse.k.maelvls.dev/login?fly_port=53932

or enter token manually:
target saved

Can -t main be remembered by default like contexts and namespaces with kubectl config set-context? See:

issue 213:
issue 1933:

Could fly remember the target? Either with FLY_TARGET env var or setting a default in ~/.flyrc?

Response: The -t flag is intentionally stateless and must be explicitly added to each command. This reduces the risk of accidentally running a command against the wrong environment when you have multiple targets defined.

OK. I hate that kind of stubborness.

“Configuring gdn server": On Linux, the concourse binary is packaged alongside a gdn binary. This binary is used for running Guardian, which is a Garden backend implementation which runs containers via runc (the same technology underlying tools like Docker).
