| mpt | Ok, this may be a silly question | 01:27 |
| mpt | But is there any way to revert to how a file/tree looked on a particular date? | 01:28 |
| mpt | Short of first using bzr log to find the newest revision before that date? | 01:28 |
| Peng | bzr revert -r date:2007-09-30 | 01:28 |
| Peng | See 'bzr help revisionspec'. | 01:28 |
| mpt | Neat! | 01:28 |
| Peng | Yeah. | 01:29 |
| mpt | And that's not mentioned directly in "bzr revert --help" because revisionspec is also used by diff | 01:31 |

| poolie | tmi | 08:34 |
| spiv | poolie: I think 106898 was motivated by wanting to know what to catch in test_put_bytes_unicode. UnicodeEncodeError is raised by some transports, but that seems strange (we don't want to try encode unicode in that method, so why should it raise that?). Some others raise AssertionError, which always feels a bit funny to catch to me but I guess can be ok. | 08:36 |
| poolie | i guess the heart of it is | 08:38 |
| === hdima [n=hdima@idealer.cust.smartspb.net] has joined #bzr | ||
| poolie | i'm not sure how much we should have apis promise they will reject invalid input | 08:38 |
| spiv | In that they should reject it, but not promise specifically how? | 08:38 |
| spiv | i.e. we should test simply for Exception in test_put_bytes_unicode and stop worrying about the details? | 08:39 |
| lifeless | poolie: I think its reasonable to promise when its a cheap promise; and/or the api is at the edge of a subsystem | 08:40 |
| poolie | that seems like a good guideline | 08:40 |
| poolie | spiv, well, why are you writing this test? | 08:40 |
| spiv | I don't really remember why I wrote it. (Or if I wrote it or just touched it?) | 08:41 |
| spiv | But it seems good to ensure that put_bytes will not silently accept unicode strings as if they are bytes. | 08:41 |
| spiv | Otherwise with sys.getdefaultencoding() == 'ascii', which it is by default, it's easy for it to appear to work reliably when testing, and then fail on real data that isn't 7-bit ascii. | 08:42 |
| poolie | yes, that's true | 08:43 |
| poolie | i would probably add TypeError or ValueError or both to the list of exceptions it can raise | 08:43 |
| poolie | i don't think we need to test that it raises one particular exception | 08:43 |
| poolie | i think declaring a new class would almost certainly be excessive | 08:44 |
| spiv | I agree that a new class would be excessive. | 08:44 |
| spiv | TypeError seems reasonable to me. I guess the main thing that bugs me about that test as-is is that UnicodeEncodeError seems like a bogus exception to raise. | 08:45 |
| lifeless | well | 08:45 |
| spiv | Hmm, and ideally, it should raise when fed u'foo', not just u'\u1234', according to my argument above :) | 08:45 |
| lifeless | TypeError requires LBYL | 08:45 |
| spiv | (But the test currently only tests with u'\u1234') | 08:46 |

| poolie | spiv, i agree that it should do this | 08:51 |

| lifeless | well | 08:54 |
| lifeless | the point is that it shouldn't be converted at all | 08:54 |

| poolie | mrevell, hi | 09:57 |
| mrevell | hi poolie | 09:57 |
| mrevell | Over the 30 - 45 minutes, we're going to be discussing Bazaar documentation. | 10:00 |
| mrevell | Welcome to the meeting and thanks for coming :) | 10:00 |
| mrevell | The aim of this meeting is to identify gaps in the current Bazaar docs. | 10:01 |
| mrevell | Yesterday we had a similar meeting and the main issues raised were: | 10:01 |
| mrevell | * We need examples for as many use cases as possible for each command in bzr help/user reference. | 10:01 |
| mrevell | * We need good coverage of what sort of conflicts can happen, how you can provoke them, and how to clean them up. | 10:01 |
| mrevell | * We should make the split between user reference and user manual clearer. | 10:01 |
| mrevell | So, I'd be keen to hear what you guys feel we're currently missing. I'd like to cover: | 10:02 |
| mrevell | * The user reference: do we have an entry for each command, should we cover more advanced topics in the user reference? | 10:02 |
| poolie | that's a good list | 10:02 |
| Lo-lan-do | Two meetings a day? WHat kind of bureaucratic monster has #bzr become? | 10:03 |
| mrevell | Lo-lan-do: The other was yesterday my time :) | 10:03 |
| fullermd | He's just trying to have one without me around. | 10:03 |
| Lo-lan-do | mrevell: Mine too, but one every twelve hours still qualifies as two daily here :-) | 10:03 |
| mrevell | * The user manual: should this become a straight tutorial, with the reference materials moving into the user reference? | 10:03 |
| mrevell | Lo-lan-do: Fair point :) | 10:04 |
| poolie | Lo-lan-do, they won't repeat daily | 10:04 |
| lifeless | btw, | 10:04 |
| mrevell | So, starting with the user reference: have you noticed any obvious gaps in bzr help? | 10:05 |
| lifeless | packs are now annotation-free; this means their initial commit for any experimentation will be 30 seconds faster than they were yesterday. | 10:05 |
| lifeless | and I'm going to eat, sorry mrevell I will read and comment on minutes though, if there are any | 10:05 |
| mrevell | lifeless: thanks | 10:05 |
| poolie | mrevell, i think there are some gaps, | 10:06 |
| mrevell | lifeless: I'll post minutes to the bazaar list later today | 10:06 |
| === lifeless waves | ||
| lifeless | ciao | 10:06 |
| poolie | there's a gap that the commands are not always explained from the right perspective of the person first reading about the command | 10:06 |
| mrevell | poolie: Ah, interesting. | 10:06 |
| poolie | a good example might be, um | 10:06 |
| poolie | well, an ok example is 'bzr help send' | 10:07 |
| poolie | it seems a bit like it just jumps into the details | 10:07 |
| mrevell | poolie: Yeah, I can see that. | 10:08 |
| poolie | i think the other thing that may be happening with the manual vs reference | 10:08 |
| poolie | is that the reference is taken from the materials in the help text | 10:08 |
| poolie | if we stick with this distinction, the online help will be all reference-type material, not introductory | 10:09 |
| poolie | and i'm not sure that's quite right | 10:09 |
| poolie | maybe it's ok, as long as they have a brief introduction to whatever topic they're talking about | 10:09 |
| === mvo [n=egon@p54A66FA4.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #bzr | ||
| mrevell | Right, yeah, I agree the online help should continue to have an introduction to each topic and should ease the reader into it | 10:11 |
| poolie | mrevell, did people say more yesterday about what that split should be? | 10:11 |
| mrevell | poolie: Just a moment, I'll put out a quote. | 10:11 |
| mrevell | fullermd suggested dividing the documentation along these lines, which I broadly agree with: | 10:12 |
| mrevell | fullermdOne is the "quick start". That's the "bzr in 5 minutes", the "here-kid-the-first-one-is-free" stuff. | 10:13 |
| mrevell | fullermdThe second is the more miniseries-style tutorial stuff, which are individual pieces, but follow a reasonable progression without too much overlap. Taht would be the "Learning bzr" sort of doc. | 10:13 |
| mrevell | fullermdAnd the third would be the reference. In-depth discussion of commands and use-cases, lists of config options and revspecs, et | 10:13 |
| === mwh [n=mwh@62-31-157-102.cable.ubr01.azte.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #bzr | ||
| mrevell | Although I take the point that the reference must include introductory material for the online help. | 10:14 |
| fullermd | You can model those three as "get the flavor of bzr/get a recipe for a quick project contribution", "learn bzr", and "reference bzr". | 10:15 |
| === boggle [n=spindler@modemcable212.211-70-69.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #bzr | ||
| poolie | that sounds pretty good | 10:17 |
| === n2diy [n=darryl@wlk-barre-208-103-148-32.dynamic-dialup.coretel.net] has joined #bzr | ||
| mrevell | So, for the user reference we have the suggestion that not all entries are correctly targeted at someone who needs an introduction to a command. Thanks for that poolie. | 10:18 |
| mrevell | Thanks fullermd also | 10:18 |
| poolie | i think the only thing to do is to go through them one by one with new-user glasses on | 10:18 |
| mrevell | poolie: I have those glasses :) | 10:19 |
| poolie | i think the main thing is that the first bit of the description should be a 1-5 sentence summary of what the command is for | 10:19 |
| poolie | the purpose | 10:19 |
| === pbor would like a tips-and-tricks page/FAQ with quick oneliners for common stuff | ||
| mrevell | thanks pbor | 10:19 |
| pbor | I just expressed the desire to have it not to write it, so nothing to thank me about :) | 10:20 |
| mrevell | poolie: Some of our descriptions are quite a bit longer than 1 - 5 sentences right now. One thing that came up yesterday was that it's sometimes difficult to be concise | 10:20 |
| mrevell | pbor: Thanks for the suggestion :) | 10:20 |
| mrevell | poolie: Although obviously we can make the writing as tight as possible | 10:21 |
| poolie | pbor, yes, i think a faq would be a good idea - | 10:21 |
| poolie | particularly a single clearly-identified faq | 10:21 |
| poolie | i've been wondering if we should use answers.launchpad.net for that | 10:21 |
| poolie | (which i posted about recently) | 10:21 |
| poolie | it has some advantages, like trying to guide people who have new questions to the existing answers | 10:22 |
| mrevell | poolie: So, I like the idea of ensuring the most important info is in the first 1 - 5 sentences | 10:22 |
| poolie | and linking to bugs if the answer relates to a bug, though at the moment only weakly so | 10:22 |
| poolie | ok | 10:22 |
| poolie | i agree that sometimes it is hard to fit it in that limit | 10:22 |
| poolie | this is partly a problem of knowing just how much you ought to explain | 10:23 |
| poolie | obviously we don't want every command's help going from first principles | 10:23 |
| mrevell | poolie: I'll tkae an action item of looking at a good way of using the Answers FAQ system for bzr | 10:25 |
| mrevell | I'd like to move onto the user manual, unless anyone has more to say about the user reference. | 10:26 |
| poolie | sure | 10:26 |
| poolie | so for the manual | 10:28 |
| mrevell | I think the user guide's weakest point, at the moment, is in advanced topics. | 10:28 |
| mrevell | Perhaps some material could move out of the current tutorial | 10:28 |
| mrevell | into advanced topics | 10:29 |
| === fullermd somewhat disagrees. | ||
| mrevell | fullermd: Please go ahead | 10:29 |
| fullermd | Well, it could just be a taxonomy issue, in what we want to have where. | 10:30 |
| poolie | in fullermd's description it looks like there's just one pretty short tutorial, and then the user's guide, and not a long tutorial | 10:30 |
| fullermd | But I think of a user guide/manual to be the thing you sit down and read through to understand the program and what you'll do with it. | 10:30 |
| fullermd | The current User Guide is just a collection of rather independent articles. It's random-access. | 10:30 |
| fullermd | (that may be a more meta position than we want to go into, though) | 10:31 |
| mrevell | fullermd: I agree that we need to make the user guide more cohesive, and that each section should progress naturally one to the next. | 10:31 |
| fullermd | We don't currently really have a place where we can say to new users "Go here, and read from here to there, and you'll have a good understanding of bzr"; that's what I'd want a User Guide to be. | 10:32 |
| fullermd | (in fairness, that doesn't seem to be what the current UG is _trying_ to do, so...) | 10:33 |
| poolie | i agree about cohesion and flow too | 10:34 |
| poolie | i think that's because it's acreted rather than because it's particularly what people want | 10:34 |
| fullermd | Yah. It's more a "Hey, we have these docs; we better link to them all". | 10:34 |
| poolie | so what, if anything, would be the difference between such a guide, and an extended tutorial? | 10:34 |
| mrevell | fullermd: Right. So, as a relatively inexperienced Bazaar user I'm in a good position to see how we should shape that sort of guide. I think your three split model is a great suggestion but I'm concerned that, because the user ref is also bzr help, we shouldn't overload that. Perhaps we need a rewritten tutorial and then further articles that cover "further reading" type topics | 10:34 |
| poolie | it seems like they might cover the same concepts and commands | 10:35 |
| poolie | but a tutorial has more of a continuing worked example | 10:35 |
| fullermd | None, really; that's sort of where I want it to be. Go in one end of it new, come out the other end with a working bzr gestalt. | 10:35 |
| poolie | mrevell, what kind of thing are you thinking of as 'further reading'? | 10:35 |
| fullermd | When I read "tutorial", I tend to read it more as "recipe"; it tells you the steps, and maybe a little about why you take them, but it doesn't leave you with the gestalt. | 10:36 |
| mrevell | poolie: For example: hosting a team branch in Launchpad, or running a bzr smart server. | 10:36 |
| fullermd | Well, that comes back to my opinion about the place of 'bzr help'. But I think I'm minority there. | 10:36 |
| mrevell | poolie: Topics that aren't essential to everyday use of bzr | 10:37 |
| fullermd | I think the User Guide should very much reference the User Reference for more in-depth coverage. | 10:37 |
| mrevell | poolie: and perhaps that won't be applicable to everyone. | 10:37 |
| fullermd | e.g., the USer Guide should talk about the smart server and why you might use it, but setting it up should be the Reference's province. | 10:37 |
| poolie | actually i disagree about that particular case | 10:38 |
| mrevell | fullermd: I think my concern there is that it's not necessarily a clean break between the two. | 10:38 |
| mrevell | poolie: Ah, okay. Well, perhaps using some of the community's tools such as bzr-svn. | 10:39 |
| poolie | ok, so the guide should give you a map to most of the content in the reference? | 10:40 |
| fullermd | I picture the guide as giving you a solid working understanding. Read it, then you can comfortably use bzr for your projects. | 10:41 |
| fullermd | Reference would be more details of each command and its options (--reprocess was an example I used yesterday) and more involved cases where you'd use them, detail coverage of a spectrum of workflows, etc. | 10:42 |
| mrevell | fullermd: Do you think all of that should be in the online help? | 10:43 |
| poolie | my default position for the online help | 10:44 |
| fullermd | I don't, no. I want quick-ref. "I know the concepts, remind me where this command fits and what options it has". Describing just what the options do and what their side-effects are can be a multi-paragraph endeavor. | 10:44 |
| poolie | (i'm willing to change) | 10:44 |
| poolie | is that, well, what fullermd just said, pretty much | 10:44 |
| poolie | a typical user, if they only had the help and not the guide, could work things out but they'll need to piece it together by themselves | 10:44 |
| mrevell | right | 10:45 |
| poolie | ok | 10:45 |
| poolie | so on the guide in particular | 10:45 |
| poolie | i think we want to get rid of the section called 'tutorial' | 10:45 |
| mrevell | poolie: Yeah, and make the guide itself work as a tutorial | 10:46 |
| mrevell | poolie: in that progresses the user through each topic | 10:47 |
| mrevell | coherently | 10:47 |
| poolie | maybe a good place to start would be to just change it's index.txt to incorporate an outline of what should be there | 10:48 |
| fullermd | I'm hoping in the next week or two work will calm down enough that I can sketch out an outline for my ideal UG. Hardly had time to breathe lately :( | 10:48 |
| mrevell | poolie: Okay, I'll change the index.txt to create an outline of where I think we should go and then we can get a discussion going on the list. | 10:50 |
| poolie | at the moment 'configuration' is one of the first topics | 10:50 |
| poolie | did you get enough feedback on the 5 minutes doc? | 10:50 |
| poolie | i glanced at it and it looked godo | 10:50 |
| poolie | good | 10:50 |
| mrevell | poolie: Yeah, I got some great feedback, thanks. In particular, I've got some good feedback on how to pitch it. I was worried that I'd used the slightly wrong tone and that was confirmed | 10:51 |
| mrevell | Someone said one part was a little too "cutesy", which I think was a fair comment. | 10:52 |
| mrevell | Right, well, thanks for your time guys. Over these two meetings I've had some very useful input. I'll write up the minutes of these two meetings and post them to the bazaar list today. | 10:52 |
| === boggle is now known as TeTeT | ||
| mrevell | Unless anyone has anything further they'd like to add, I'll close the meeting and continue discussion on the list. | 10:53 |
| poolie | just one more thing | 10:55 |
| mrevell | yeah? | 10:55 |
| poolie | one more open issue is this: there are several ways | 10:55 |
| poolie | you can set up to use Bazaar | 10:55 |
| poolie | so at the moment we have centralized_workflow; we could also talk about team branches, or using pqm, or other thnigs | 10:56 |
| poolie | similarly, shared repositories vs standalone branches vs checkouts | 10:56 |
| poolie | there's potential for confusion | 10:56 |
| poolie | i guess | 10:57 |
| fullermd | Well, for the latter, I think a good Fundamentals piece will cover that well (as I blathered about at excruciating length on the list) | 10:57 |
| === jml [n=jml@CPE-124-177-6-69.vic.bigpond.net.au] has joined #bzr | ||
| poolie | we should be clear about what the mainstream method is | 10:57 |
| mrevell | right | 10:57 |
| mrevell | but present the alternatives and why you might want to use them | 10:57 |
| fullermd | For the former, I think that needs a chapter in the Manual, and emphasizing that it's a continuum rather than a set of points. | 10:57 |
| poolie | the former? | 10:57 |
| fullermd | The workflows | 10:58 |
| fullermd | At one end is a single shared branch everybody works on, at the other is individual branches full-mesh merging, and everything else is in between. | 10:58 |
| poolie | ok | 10:59 |
| fullermd | I have an idea of tackling that by starting with the single-branch case, and walking up through more and more distributed bits until it finally becomes full-mesh. | 10:59 |
| poolie | and then maybe the reference should describe the constituent parts | 10:59 |
| fullermd | But you could also go the other way. Or describe the ends, then walk inward from both. I haven't decided which I like better | 11:00 |
| fullermd | I think what's needed is to cover the continuum, then pick a small handful (3, 4 maybe) points along it and describe how you'd use them specifically, and what use-cases they might well fill. | 11:00 |
| mrevell | I have to admit that this is an area where my lack of experience with bzr lets me down. I understand that there are different workflows but I'm sketchy on when is best to use which workflow. | 11:01 |
| fullermd | Not sure how to split that between Guide and Reference, though. The whole would be too big and deep for Guide. | 11:02 |
| fullermd | (obviously, I'm a big "understand the concepts, then the 'real' instances are Obvious(tm)" guy. That may be a blind spot.) | 11:06 |
| poolie | tutorials as such do tend to start out with specific examples | 11:08 |
| poolie | anyhow, that gives us something good to go on with | 11:08 |
| poolie | thanks, mrevell | 11:08 |
| poolie | i'm done if you are | 11:09 |
| mrevell | fullermd: I worry that starting with the concepts could overwhelm people. | 11:09 |
| mrevell | but obviously there's basic ground that needs to be covered to understand what follows | 11:09 |
| mrevell | yes, thanks poolie | 11:09 |
| mrevell | poolie: I have some great action points and input from these two meetings | 11:09 |
| fullermd | Yeah. It's a problem :( | 11:09 |
| mrevell | I'll write the meetings up for the list and come up with a first draft contents for the tutorial. | 11:10 |
| mrevell | I think I'll be relying heavily on community input for the more advanced topics. | 11:10 |
| mrevell | Thanks everyone. | 11:10 |

| pbor | speaking of docs, am I the only one to think that in the quick start guide branching a remote branch should come first than creating your own repo? | 12:39 |
| fullermd | I don't think that way, no... | 12:39 |
| fullermd | (at least, necessarily) | 12:39 |
| pbor | maybe it is just me, but I think it is way more common to start using a vcs when joining a project that already uses it than starting a new project | 12:39 |
| pbor | usually it goes: "I want to fix this with a patch, how do I get the code" | 12:40 |
| pbor | when I start a new project and I pick a vcs chances are that I am already familiar with the vcs I pick | 12:41 |
| fullermd | Well, but the steps of using it are pretty much the same, and it's simpler to start describing in isolation (IMO) | 12:44 |
| gabe | Enquest: bzrignore is in your home dir | 12:45 |
| pbor | fullermd: dunno, I know that each time I read cvs/svn/bzr doc when I started using them it got on my nerves... every time I thought "I do not want to create no f. repo, I don't even know what a repo is! Just tell me the command to get the code" | 12:47 |
| fullermd | Well. That gets into why I *HATE* quick-start docs. | 12:48 |
| === sii [n=sii@tranquillity.sii.se] has joined #bzr | ||

| james_w | orutherfurd: you can correct that via chmod/chown. | 06:15 |
| fullermd | Only temporarily. Later pushes can still screw it up when they create new dirs. | 06:16 |
| orutherfurd | stupid question, I'm sure, but is there any way for paramiko to explicitly create directories w/same owner and permissions as parent directories? or to change them after the fact? | 06:20 |
| fullermd | No, the problem is the setgid. The sftp server strips it. | 06:20 |
| fullermd | So paramiko can _say_ to set it, but it won't get set. | 06:20 |
| orutherfurd | ah, that's unfortunate ;-) | 06:21 |
| fullermd | bzr+ssh is probably a workaround. And the better choice anyway, if you can run with it. | 06:21 |
| === kiko-zzz is now known as kiko | ||
| fullermd | My workaround is to not use a system with SysV filesystem semantics ;) | 06:21 |
| orutherfurd | yeah, I saw that as a suggestion, but one of the big draws for using bzr was not having to install any software on the server | 06:22 |
| orutherfurd | easier to fly below the radar | 06:22 |
| NfNitLoop | I don't think bzr+ssh requires installing bzr? | 06:22 |
| NfNitLoop | or am I getting them mixed up? | 06:23 |
| orutherfurd | oh, maybe I was misunderstanding -- I thought that was the 'smart server' | 06:23 |
| fullermd | Yes, it does. Otherwise you'll have a lot of trouble with the 'bzr' part of it. | 06:23 |
| NfNitLoop | Ooh. it's bzr tunneled over ssh. Duh. | 06:24 |

| james_w | fullermd: nice bug. | 10:14 |
| fullermd | Hrmph. *I* didn't think it was so nice ;p | 10:19 |
| fullermd | 2 revs down the line... "WTF? Why is this totally vital file that's existed in the project for months 'unknown'??" | 10:20 |
| james_w | :( | 10:21 |
| fullermd | It gave me just enough time to get over "Hmph. That wacky assertion failure that works the second time isn't fixed yet?" | 10:22 |
| fullermd | The test case might be trimmable a bit farther. I think you need the re-rm'd directory to trigger the assert (and so you need a change in that file deleted), and I presume it's the "other file from the same dir mv'd into another dir" bit that triggers the "rm'd/unknown" bit. | 10:26 |
| fullermd | So maybe some of the other files aren't necessary. But I don't have time today to try and work up truly minimal cases :| | 10:26 |
| james_w | I don't think the second directory is needed. | 10:28 |
| james_w | I have just sent an analysis to the report though, so the test case can be trimmed using that. | 10:29 |
| === Gwaihir [n=Gwaihir@ubuntu/member/gwaihir] has joined #bzr | ||
| fullermd | Probably not. It's part of an earlier attempt I made at trying to figure out what of my real project brought it about. | 10:30 |
| james_w | it was good enough to pinpoint the problem though, so thanks. | 10:31 |
| james_w | indeed the second dir is not needed. | 10:34 |
| fullermd | Maybe the bug is really "What the hell are you doing to your poor branches?!" | 10:35 |
| james_w | changing, renaming and deleting your files all at once? You expect me to merge that? | 10:36 |

| Rotund | someone got time to answer some questions? | 11:51 |
| Rotund | hello? | 11:56 |
| Rotund | Does bzr have support for locking individual files? | 11:57 |
| luks | locking as in "CVS-like locking"? | 11:58 |
| Rotund | like "noone can change this file" | 11:59 |
| === jml__ [n=jml@ppp121-44-213-76.lns1.hba1.internode.on.net] has joined #bzr | ||
| luks | no, it doesn't (by design) | 11:59 |
| Rotund | That's actually a problem for us | 11:59 |
| luks | if you need locking (which I think you don't), then you probably want a strictly centralized vcs | 12:00 |
| Rotund | I understand for things actively developed. We do a lot of testing and have actual releases. | 12:00 |
| luks | in bzr you create a couple of branches and then merge them, instead | 12:00 |
| === jml__ is now known as jml | ||
| Rotund | One thing the people I work with are concerned about is limiting changes to files after they have been reviewed. | 12:01 |
