| tedg | Can you guys get to the X.org git repository? | 20:13 |
| tedg | $ git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/doc/xorg-docs/specs/ | 20:13 |
| tedg | Initialized empty Git repository in /home/ted/Development/xorg/specs/.git/ | 20:13 |
| tedg | fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly | 20:13 |
| tedg | fetch-pack from 'git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/doc/xorg-docs/specs/' failed. | 20:13 |
| bryce | lemme try | 20:20 |
| tedg | I blame 'git' ;) | 20:20 |
| bryce | hmm, it appeared to work, but then I got a wonky error | 20:21 |
| bryce | ... | 20:21 |
| bryce | * refs/heads/glucose-2: fast forward to branch 'glucose-2' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver | 20:21 |

| bryce | fatal: Fetch failure: git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver | 20:21 |
| bryce | but yes, I can get to the git repo | 20:22 |
| tedg | Wow, seems to be diabetic... | 20:22 |
| tedg | Do you have anything in your ~/.git that I should have? | 20:22 |
| bryce | gitme the suga baby | 20:22 |
| bryce | I don't have a ~/.git | 20:22 |
| tedg | Hmm, is there a bazaar mirror? ;) | 20:24 |
| tedg | Can you e-mail me the XSMP spec? That'll probably be easiest at this point. | 20:25 |
| bryce | where in the tree is it? | 20:26 |
| tedg | xorg/doc/xorg-docs/specs/SM | 20:27 |
| bryce | git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/doc/xorg-docs worked for me | 20:32 |
| bryce | fwiw, you can also do apt-get source xorg-docs and get pretty much the same | 20:32 |
| bryce | in any case, here's the files: http://bryceharrington.org/files/SM/ | 20:33 |
| tedg | bryce: Cool, thanks. | 20:35 |
| tedg | bryce: Okay, is there a editor that humans can use for that file? | 20:43 |
| bryce | what's so hard about troff? | 20:44 |
| bryce | I enjoy teasing you almost as much as you me ;-) | 20:44 |
| bryce | tedg: I've got NFI | 20:44 |
| bryce | the xorg guys are ornery bastards and I bet they edit it in vi | 20:45 |
| bryce | and they LIKE it | 20:45 |
| bryce | because they can do it while walking to school uphill in the snow | 20:46 |
| tedg | Okay, what a PITA. | 20:46 |
| tedg | I think I'll probably use VI then. | 20:46 |
| tedg | Or, go with a little luxury and use VIM -- not the real experience, but close. | 20:47 |
| bryce | looking at the other specs it seems many of them just use plain text | 20:47 |
| bryce | troff does not seem to be the typical format; maybe that was just a peculiarity of whomever wrote it | 20:48 |
| bryce | perhaps difficulty editing it is a contributing factor to the reason why it seems unmaintained and disconnected from everything else | 20:48 |
| tedg | Yeah, could be. I'll just use Frontpage and put it in pseudo-HTML ;) | 20:49 |
| bryce | there you go | 20:49 |

| tjaalton | bryce: hey, I uploaded xorg with two small changes, and probably the last upload before -8 which drops xresprobe | 22:28 |
| bryce | heya tjaalton | 22:28 |
| bryce | cool | 22:29 |
| bryce | I'm still hacking on tormod's script and trying to figure out git merge issues | 22:29 |
| bryce | (I'm pondering if bzr's merge works any better...) | 22:29 |
| tormod | heya bryce! | 22:29 |
| tjaalton | we still need to figure out what to do with livecd cleaning up the xorg.conf stub | 22:29 |
| tormod | got my last patch? :) | 22:30 |
| bryce | tormod: yup, applied and pushed | 22:30 |
| tjaalton | bryce: ok, I still haven't tried the script | 22:30 |
| bryce | tjaalton: yeah... any thoughts on that? we seem to be accumulating bug reports about that | 22:30 |
| bryce | tjaalton: don't worry about it, I've still got avenues to explore | 22:30 |
| bryce | basically I think I just need better git-fu | 22:31 |
| bryce | tjaalton: oh one question | 22:31 |
| tjaalton | bryce: well I'm thinking that it's not our bug, but maybe the way it's handled in pre/postinst could be improved | 22:31 |
| bryce | tormod and I want to share access to the git repo for this script, ala svn. I know this can be done with bzr in launchpad, but how do we achieve that with git on alioth? | 22:32 |
| bryce | tormod: oh whoops just saw your latest patch, I do need to add that | 22:32 |
| bryce | tormod: I got the -D option, the rest is new | 22:33 |
| tjaalton | bryce: well, there are a lot of projects under "collab-maint", but I'm not sure how to set up one | 22:33 |
| tjaalton | bryce: you want to share commit access? | 22:38 |
| tjaalton | collab-maint seems to be meant for debian packages | 22:38 |
| bryce | hrm | 22:39 |
| tjaalton | or do you just mean to put it somewhere for people to clone? | 22:39 |
| bryce | no, the latter's already set up | 22:40 |
| bryce | I'm just thinking, that I'm going to be a bottleneck for tormod (or vice versa if tormod was maintaining the git repo for it) | 22:40 |
| bryce | anyway, I guess it's fine this way for now. I was just hoping there'd be a simple way to flip it on, like with bzr | 22:41 |
| tjaalton | well, even though the tool uses git, does it have to be maintained in git?-) | 22:41 |
| tormod | bryce: I think the closest we can get is that I set up my own repo, and you pull changes from me on request. | 22:42 |
| tormod | bryce: and I can might as well send you diffs... I don't have bigger plans for it now. | 22:42 |
| bryce | ok sounds good | 22:43 |
| tormod | tjaalton: it's a git exercise for us :) | 22:43 |
| tjaalton | tormod: hehe, as good a reason as any ;) | 22:43 |
| bryce | tormod: I've applied and pushed your patch (for real this time) | 22:43 |
| tormod | have you tested it on all libraries etc lately? | 22:43 |
| bryce | actually it sort of is. ;-) I've never done a git thing from scratch, only following other people's trees, so this is exposing me to some new bits | 22:44 |
| bryce | tormod: yes I ran it on everything a few minutes ago. It's still failing on a large chunk, and I'm going to investigate further | 22:44 |
| tjaalton | bryce: I haven't done that either | 22:44 |
| bryce | I'm going to make xorg-pkg-all.sh try multiple approaches (first without dropping patches against -experimental, then against -unstable, then with patches dropped...) | 22:45 |
| tormod | would be cool if we could have "xorg daily" packages repo! and use the cd-customization scripts to make a daily xorg CD. that's my master plan. | 22:45 |
| bryce | yup, that's what I'm shooting for here as well | 22:46 |
| tjaalton | almost made the xorg upload an excercise of pulling specific debian changes in it, but figured out that -8 is coming soon so wasn't worth the trouble | 22:46 |
| bryce | although I was thinking ppa rather than daily cd, but that's a pretty good idea too | 22:47 |
| tormod | so upstream can say instead of "please try latest from git" : try the daily xorg live cd. and by wicked conspiracy, soon everybody is using Ubuntu. | 22:47 |
| bryce | >-) bwahaha | 22:47 |
| tjaalton | get them built first ;) | 22:47 |
| bryce | actually yeah it seems every week someone asks for this on the xorg list, so it solves a practical need | 22:48 |
| bryce | on it | 22:48 |
| tormod | at the moment alpha-1 is almost this, but it's only close twice a year | 22:49 |
| tormod | thanks to tjaalton, I must say | 22:50 |
| bryce | yes | 22:50 |
| tjaalton | bah, its nowhere near HEAD ;) | 22:51 |
| bryce | I meant yes, it's thanks to tjaalton ;-) | 22:51 |
| bryce | and really, aside from xserver and a few drivers, most things should be fairly close to head right now | 22:51 |
| tjaalton | heh, yeah | 22:51 |
| tedg | Okay, so I can't even recreate the PDF file I have. Is there some sort of troff stylesheet or instructions or something? | 22:52 |
| bryce | tedg: no idea | 22:52 |
| bryce | tedg: don't you need to run troff to turn it into a .ps first? | 22:52 |
| tedg | Yes, but my PS file has no paragraphs. | 22:53 |
| tedg | ps2pdf won't fix that. | 22:53 |
| tjaalton | bryce: hey, did you say that you are going to look at the XKB hell? | 23:10 |
| tjaalton | I just got a new keyboard and most of the special keys aren't working and I wonder how to make them produce events | 23:15 |
| tjaalton | but I'll figure it out later, now to bed.. seeya -> | 23:16 |
| bryce | cya | 23:18 |
