| asabil | anyone knows if there is a way to have bzr behave in a similar way to git ? concerning branches and repositories ? | 08:37 |
| asabil | I mean 1 folder contains many branches | 08:37 |
| Peng | Not yet. | 08:37 |
| Peng | Maybe in the future. | 08:37 |
| asabil | ans is there a way to rewrite the history ? | 08:47 |
| luks | rewrite in what way? | 08:52 |
| igc | morning | 08:53 |
| asabil | luks: change the commit log | 08:53 |
| asabil | or change the committed files | 08:54 |
| luks | uncommit + commit? | 08:54 |
| asabil | luks: something like : http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-filter-branch.html | 08:57 |
| asabil | luks: maybe you would want to take a look at this: http://blogs.gnome.org/newren/2008/03/01/happenings-in-the-vcs-world/ | 08:58 |
| asabil | it is quite biased toward git, but still contains interesting ideas and complains about bzr | 08:58 |
| luks | umm, I think I really don't want to :) | 08:58 |
| luks | no, bzr doesn't have anything like git-filter-branch, but I think that's good, not bad | 08:59 |
| asabil | luks: that's exactly his complain: the bzr devs don't want to listen:p | 08:59 |
| luks | I'm not a bzr dev, btw | 08:59 |
| luks | but I wouldn't listen anyway :) | 09:00 |
| asabil | luks: and honestly git-filter-branch can be really useful | 09:00 |
| luks | how so? | 09:00 |
| luks | isn't VCS about keeping your history? | 09:00 |
| luks | I can understand it's use for migrating or restructuring branches | 09:00 |
| luks | but not to change commit message or things like you mentioned | 09:01 |
| asabil | yes, but let me give you some use cases | 09:01 |
| asabil | let's say I work for a company A, that uses bzr | 09:01 |
| fullermd | There are many very good reasons to want to wipe out history :) | 09:01 |
| asabil | I worked for a long time on a proprietay project for them , and some day they decided it should go open source | 09:02 |
| asabil | however, there are some files early in the history of the bzr branch, that are confidential | 09:02 |
| asabil | I still want to pusblish the whole branch with its history | 09:02 |
| asabil | how do I do ? | 09:02 |
| luks | yes, that's one valid use case | 09:02 |
| luks | but the first two you mentioned were not | 09:03 |
| asabil | which ones ? | 09:03 |
| luks | <asabil> luks: change the commit log | 09:03 |
| luks | <asabil> or change the committed files | 09:03 |
| asabil | luks: sometimes there are typos in the commit log | 09:03 |
| luks | typo in the commit message is IMO part of the history and should stay there | 09:04 |
| asabil | and sometimes there is a morron in your project who would put crappy commit logs | 09:04 |
| luks | otherwise you break the branch for everybody else | 09:04 |
| asabil | and you want to fix that | 09:04 |
| luks | it's part of the history, don't change the history :) | 09:04 |
| fullermd | Down, boy! Keep your dogma on its leash! | 09:05 |
| asabil | :) | 09:05 |
| luks | I guess I just don't like git too much, so I'm not the right person do discuss this :) | 09:06 |
| asabil | luks: I don't like git at all, and for good reasons | 09:06 |
| fullermd | In a lot of cases, breaking the branch is totally acceptable. In a lot of cases, I know exactly where every copy of the branch is, so remaking them all is a bloody inconvenience, but entirely possible. | 09:06 |
| asabil | but many people like git, and if you really like bzr, you should listen to their critics and improve | 09:06 |
| luks | I'm not saying filtering shouldn't be possible | 09:07 |
| luks | but in git it' a common operation | 09:07 |
| luks | *it's | 09:07 |
| luks | btw, I don't like bzr either :) | 09:08 |
| asabil | ... | 09:08 |
| luks | but it's the only acceptable one | 09:08 |
| asabil | I think there are many things to improve in bzr, maybe also change its name | 09:08 |
| fullermd | "All mail clients suck. This one just sucks less." | 09:09 |
| asabil | many people still confuse bzr with bazaar | 09:09 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: That's going to be fixed soon. | 09:10 |
| asabil | oh really ? | 09:11 |
| Odd_Bloke | The Debian 'bazaar' package will install both bzr and baz. | 09:11 |
| Odd_Bloke | And eventually just bzr. | 09:11 |
| asabil | that would be better | 09:11 |
| Peng | Typos are one thing, but sometimes I really do want to change the commit message when it's wrong. | 09:11 |
| johnny | version the changelogs lol | 09:12 |
| johnny | err commit messages | 09:12 |
| Peng | That could work. | 09:13 |
| Odd_Bloke | johnny: The commit messages _are_ versioned, with the content of the trees. | 09:13 |
| Peng | It would, of course, be too complicated, but would be useful. | 09:13 |
| johnny | i mean seperately Odd_Bloke | 09:14 |
| johnny | but i personally don't need such a thing.. | 09:14 |
| johnny | you could find a way to replay the history tho | 09:14 |
| luks | Peng: then uncommit it and commit again | 09:14 |
| luks | if you notice it later and the branch is already published, rewriting is IMO the wrong thing to do | 09:15 |
| Verterok | morning | 09:16 |
| asabil | I still think that rewriting the history and filtering a branch can be a really neat fature for bzr | 09:18 |
| asabil | also bzr could improve its handling of Limbo files | 09:18 |
| asabil | maybe by adopting an interactive ui like darcs | 09:18 |
| asabil | or having an ibzr command that is fully interactive | 09:19 |
| Peng | luks: The only time I can remember it bothering me was with a personal, non-code branch that isn't published. There had also been commits since it. | 09:34 |
| LarstiQ | asabil: handling of Limbo files? | 09:44 |
| asabil | LarstiQ: unknown files | 09:46 |
| asabil | LarstiQ: you know the "Oh sh*t i forgot to add those files before committing" | 09:47 |
| LarstiQ | asabil: ah. You confused me since limbo has a specific meaning in bzr, and I have never heard of this use before.\ | 09:49 |
| LarstiQ | jam: are you running bzr serve or somesuch? | 09:49 |
| dato | LarstiQ: http://blogs.gnome.org/newren/2007/12/08/limbo-why-users-are-more-error-prone-with-git-than-other-vcses/, presumably | 09:50 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: There's 'bzr shell', in bzrtools I think. | 09:51 |
| jam | LarstiQ: I am now :) | 09:51 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: and ? | 09:51 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: ever used darcs ? | 09:52 |
| LarstiQ | asabil: maybe you are looking for commit --strict? | 09:52 |
| asabil | LarstiQ: rather something like darcs record | 09:53 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: 'bzr shell' is similar to an interactive bzr command, but I should have read more context. | 09:53 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: Didn't you write the 'record' plugin? | 09:54 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: yes, the record plugin should be renamed btw into bzr make-patch | 09:54 |
| asabil | or something like that | 09:54 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: Ah, yes, I recall now. | 09:54 |
| asabil | I wanted it to become like darcs record, but never had time to finish it | 09:54 |
| * LarstiQ is a bit low on cycles | 09:55 | |
| Odd_Bloke | I'd have thought it would be fairly trivial to switch from creating a patch to creating a commit. | 09:55 |
| LarstiQ | asabil: I don't know darcs well, what about record is it that you are looking for? | 09:55 |
| * Odd_Bloke doesn't have any motivation to do it himself, because he wouldn't ever use it. | 09:55 | |
| Odd_Bloke | I'd be happy to help someone who does have some motivation though. | 09:55 |
| asabil | LarstiQ: basically darcs is fully interactive, so when you issue a darcs record (the commit equivalent), it will prompt you about the hunks to record | 09:58 |
| asabil | (in a similar manner to bzr shelve), then it will ask you for a record name (commit message), before finishing the record | 09:59 |
| asabil | iirc it will also warn you about unknown files | 09:59 |
| LarstiQ | asabil: right, which --strict will also do | 09:59 |
| asabil | LarstiQ: --strict is interactive ? | 10:00 |
| LarstiQ | asabil: no | 10:00 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: maybe can we cook up something together ? | 10:00 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: I want to make the record plugin add a --interactive command to commit | 10:00 |
| * LarstiQ doesn't think interactivity is desirable in the general case, so if there are useful features of record that can also work non-interactive, that would be nice to factor out | 10:01 | |
| asabil | s/command/option/ | 10:01 |
| LarstiQ | or rephrased, not only the interactive users should benefit | 10:01 |
| asabil | make the interactive users benefit until you find a way to make the non interactive users benefit as well | 10:02 |
| LarstiQ | fair enough :) | 10:02 |
| jelmer | dudes! | 10:02 |
| LarstiQ | jelmer! | 10:02 |
| jelmer | how is the sprint today? | 10:02 |
| LarstiQ | jelmer: they just did a firealarm test | 10:03 |
| LarstiQ | but announced it so we could just sit and not do the entire evac thing | 10:03 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: There was someone in here last night who was also interested in that exact thing. | 10:04 |
| Odd_Bloke | It was, in fact, LeoNerd (implicit ping). :) | 10:05 |
| jelmer | LarstiQ: ah, that's nice for a change | 10:14 |
| vila | yeah, there were nice enough when I explained why *I* prefer it to be a lighter test... | 10:15 |
| LarstiQ | jelmer: do you have anything to say on file copies/path tokens? | 10:17 |
| jelmer | LarstiQ: I'm not sure I entirely remember how they were supposed to work | 10:18 |
| LarstiQ | ah :) | 10:18 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: abentley and lifeless are probably about to have a discussion regarding file copies, hence the question. :) | 10:19 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: Any chance of you adding a "mirror-update" command to that plugin today? :) | 10:22 |
| jelmer | Odd_Bloke/LarstIq: The wiki page on path tokens doesn't appear to have any actual design details, just use cases :-( | 10:23 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: That's my next step. :D | 10:23 |
| LarstiQ | jelmer: rob's comment was that pathtokens may be a implementation strategy for filecopies, but they don't need to be the way to do it. | 10:23 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: I have a use-case of a sort | 10:24 |
| jelmer | LarstiQ: makes sense | 10:24 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: Cool. | 10:25 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: I have just made a "bzr svn-import" of Twisted's SVN on my laptop, and when I update it (by running bzr svn-import again in the same dir), I'd like a way to update the copy of the import I've put at http://people.ubuntu.com/~andrew/twisted/ | 10:25 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: rsync works atm, but isn't exactly ideal... | 10:25 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: let's say I have a patch, how do I commit it (working on --interactive) | 10:50 |
| jelmer | too bad there's no video feeds | 10:50 |
| jelmer | but at least there is the BrainStorms page | 10:50 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: Well, apply it to the tree and then commit as normal, I guess. | 10:51 |
| LarstiQ | jelmer: we could do a conference call I suppose | 10:51 |
| asabil | oki | 10:52 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: I've just pushed an initial implementation of mirror-update to mirror.dev. | 10:52 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: thanks! | 10:53 |
| jelmer | LarstiQ: it's being discussed right now? | 10:58 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: Nope, plugins ATM. | 10:59 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: So I'm finding some slightly odd behaviour in that the mirror-update command is pulling the revisions and the history into the branches appropriately but 'bzr log' complains about logging the null revision. | 11:00 |
| Odd_Bloke | 'bzr log -r1' shows the right thing, however. | 11:00 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: hmm, mirroring a rich-root-pack repo doesn't work | 11:01 |
| spiv | It creates pack-0.92 at the destination then barfs. | 11:01 |
| jelmer | hmm, is bundle-buggy down or just being slow | 11:02 |
| james_w | Odd_Bloke: are you using tree.pull() or branch.pull() | 11:03 |
| Odd_Bloke | I get "bzr: ERROR: Repository KnitPackRepository('file:///var/tmp/foo/.bzr/repository/') is not compatible with repository KnitPackRepository('file:///var/tmp/blah/.bzr/repository/')" when doing that. | 11:03 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: ^ | 11:03 |
| Odd_Bloke | james_w: branch.pull() | 11:03 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: right. | 11:03 |
| james_w | Odd_Bloke: you want tree.pull() anyway. | 11:03 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: abentley was using it earlier, but I don't know about ATM. | 11:03 |
| Odd_Bloke | james_w: How's that going to cope with branches without trees, which is probably what we want from this (as the eventual use-case is switching into the mirrored branches)? | 11:04 |
| james_w | Odd_Bloke: well, use open_tree_or_branch() and then you know whether there is a tree there already, and then switch between tree.pull() and branch.pull() | 11:05 |
| james_w | Odd_Bloke: and I guess you have to solve that branch.pull() problem. | 11:06 |
| james_w | I can show you some code that does the former if you like. | 11:06 |
| Odd_Bloke | james_w: Sure, please. :) | 11:06 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: BundleBuggy WFM ATM TLA. | 11:06 |
| jelmer | Odd_Bloke: hmm, looks like it's just being very slow to me | 11:07 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: Yeah, it'll be fun. :p | 11:08 |
| jelmer | Peng: Do you have pqm access or should I submit the branch for "http://bundlebuggy.aaronbentley.com/request/%3C47C5D9C0.5080702@mattnordhoff.com%3E" ? | 11:11 |
| jamesh | jelmer: the debian/watch files for bzr-email and bzr-pqm in Debian seem to be pointing at the wrong LP pages | 11:13 |
| jamesh | according to http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-bazaar-maint@lists.alioth.debian.org | 11:13 |
| jelmer | jamesh: as far as I know there is no watch file for bzr-email and bzr-pqm | 11:14 |
| jamesh | jelmer: maybe that site creates automatic watches then. My mistake :) | 11:15 |
| jelmer | jamesh: I wonder how though | 11:16 |

| igc | hi dato | 11:22 |
| jelmer | jamesh: and it then makes assumptions about the releases being on launchpad as well? | 11:22 |
| igc | dato: spoke to abentley re the best way to do fast-export ... | 11:22 |
| dato | aha | 11:22 |
| igc | two revision-trees and changes_from is fine | 11:22 |
| igc | abentley also mentioned iter_changes | 11:23 |
| igc | and had some idea down the track | 11:23 |
| dato | I saw iter_changes, but only as a _underscore_method, so I went with public stuff | 11:24 |
| abentley | changes_from is a bit ugly and lossy. | 11:25 |
| igc | s/idea/ideas/ | 11:25 |
| igc | re more efficient ways | 11:25 |
| igc | I imagine that two rev-trees + changes_from is fast enough for any projects though ... | 11:25 |
| igc | so we ought to stick with that initially I feel | 11:25 |
| igc | s/any/many/ | 11:25 |
| dato | abentley: lossy? | 11:25 |
| LarstiQ | Odd_Bloke: one of the log messages of bisect we looked at mentioned working with merged revisions, what was that about then? | 11:25 |
| ubotu | New bug: #199442 in bzr "every command twice encode sys.stdout?" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/199442 | 11:26 |
| Odd_Bloke | LarstiQ: I dunno, I thought it coped with them too. | 11:26 |
| Odd_Bloke | I may have screwed the test up. ^_^ | 11:26 |
| dato | igc: now, I have bzr-crude-export.py in a state that does everything I'd need, so I'm not sure how much more time I'd like to put into it. otoh, I'd like to release it. so, how about I drop a mail about it in bazaar@ and git@, and mention that it'll probably need a new home in the future, possibly bzr-fastimport? | 11:26 |
| abentley | dato: There are some combinations with kind changes that aren't recorded properly by changes_from. | 11:27 |
| dato | abentley: ok. my script doesn't look at kind_changes atm, so... | 11:27 |
| igc | dato: I definitely want it in fastimport and I'm happy to own it | 11:28 |
| dato | abentley: btw kind_changed seems missing in TreeDelta's __doc__ | 11:29 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: I'm not going to work that mirror bug out now, as I think the git-style branches discussion will have some bearing on it. | 11:30 |
| dato | igc: ok. shall I keep calling it -crude, or would be -fast ok with you? I'll mention in __doc__ that later on it'll live in launchpad.net/bzr-fastimport | 11:30 |
| igc | dato: fast is ok. If you send me the code or link, I'll include it real soon now | 11:32 |
| igc | bbiab | 11:32 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: ok, done I will publish my interactive commit crack | 11:33 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: Cool. :) | 11:34 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: any name to suggest ? | 11:35 |
| asabil | bzr_interactive ? | 11:35 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: interactive-commit, or somesuch. | 11:36 |
| asabil | Odd_Bloke: it also contains a record-patch command | 11:36 |
| Odd_Bloke | asabil: I dunno then. | 11:36 |
| Odd_Bloke | It can always be changed later. :p | 11:36 |
| asabil | abentley: what do you think about adding the record-patch command to bzrtools ? | 11:44 |
| beuno | LarstiQ, *ahem*debconf*ahem* | 11:45 |
| abentley | I'm not keen on making it easy for people to do partial commits. | 11:47 |
| LeoNerd | It's already easy... bzr ci some files here | 11:53 |
| LeoNerd | The hunk selection only extends a bit further, to do changes -within- files.. It's really no worse in principle | 11:53 |
| LeoNerd | It just depends on the (fairly-arbitrary) way that the user has split their content across files | 11:54 |
| abentley | LeoNerd: Different-in-degree is good enough for me. | 11:57 |
| asabil | abentley: oO record-patch is about creating patches manageable with quilt | 11:59 |
| LarstiQ | beuno: yes, thank you :) | 12:02 |
| abentley | asabil: You should really look into looms, then. | 12:12 |
| abentley | That should be a much more reliable way of generating quilt-compatible patches. | 12:13 |
| dato | igc: ok, I CCed you. I'm sorry is a git repo, but feel free to use git-fast-export! :-P | 12:14 |
| asabil | oh, oki didn't know aboutit | 12:14 |
| asabil | thanks | 12:14 |
| spiv | Odd_Bloke: makes sense | 12:20 |
| Odd_Bloke | spiv: That's what I thought. However, it seems like the discussion may not happen after all... | 12:21 |

| VSpike | i'm using bzr to control a web application. My hosting co only gives me access to the webspace by ftp. Can I use bzr to push changes up to the hosting space? | 13:56 |
| james_w | VSpike: yes. You can push over ftp. | 13:57 |
| VSpike | i tried "bzr init ftp://user:pass@hosting.com" but I get an error "File exists: '/.bzr': 550 /. bzr: access is denied" | 13:57 |
| james_w | VSpike: that doesn't look good. | 13:57 |
| VSpike | I'm using bzr 1.2.0 on Windows | 13:57 |
| james_w | VSpike: also, bzr will not create a working tree on the ftp server, so I don't think it will do what you want. | 13:58 |
| beuno | VSpike, and also, it will have the bzr repository online, making it easy to download the source | 13:59 |
| beuno | VSpike, we are working an a plugin to tackle the website-uploading workflow | 13:59 |
| beuno | so keep an eye out for it ;) | 13:59 |
| VSpike | bueno the whole source is always in the webspace anyway, and I can specifically block access to .bzr | 14:00 |
| VSpike | Hmm I don't think even rsync can do ftp | 14:02 |
| VSpike | rats | 14:02 |
| beuno | VSpike, right, well, you still have the working tree issue, which is the actualy files | 14:03 |
| beuno | but, again, a solution to that is very close by | 14:03 |
| beuno | just not today | 14:03 |
| VSpike | I'm not sure i understand the working tree issue? | 14:04 |
| beuno | VSpike, the working tree is the actual files | 14:04 |
| hmeland | The "bzr push" will only push the repository part, i.e. stuff under ".bzr". | 14:04 |
| beuno | so when you push, you just send the repository files, which are the ones under .bzr | 14:04 |
| VSpike | ah right | 14:05 |
| beuno | VSpike, so you would need ssh access on the other end to do this now | 14:05 |
| beuno | (if you're willing to block the .bzr directory via htaccess or something) | 14:05 |
| VSpike | Understood | 14:06 |
| VSpike | Timestamps never seem to match either so probably the easiest/safest thing to do it use a sledgehammer and just write a script to ftp everything up | 14:06 |
| beuno | VSpike, right, at the moment | 14:07 |
| VSpike | okay. thanks! | 14:07 |
| hmeland | Any ftp mirroring tool should be able to do the job. | 14:07 |
| beuno | (I'm personally doing php magic to do it on top of bzr, but that's not available yet either :p) | 14:07 |
| awilkins | Is this stuff convered in the FAQ? Because it's sure as heck a FAQ in here. | 14:07 |
| awilkins | Oh, and while we're talking about timestamps, was it a conscious design decision for timestamps in working trees not to match the timestamp of the files last revision? | 14:08 |
| === thumper_laptop is now known as thumper | ||
| beuno | awilkins, we're aiming at solving the actual problem, so I suppose a FAQ wouldn't make any sense at the moment | 14:09 |
| hmeland | I seem to recall there being a bug on the file-timestamp issue; don't know the status, though. | 14:09 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: What are they instead and what case are you thinking of? | 14:10 |
| awilkins | I find the timestamp thing annoying because my tree compare tool is time sensitive | 14:10 |
| awilkins | LarstiQ: The timestamps are "time of writing to disk" from the build phase | 14:10 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: ah right, so clean checkout you mean. | 14:10 |
| awilkins | LarstiQ: Yup | 14:11 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: Doesn't sound like a desing decision, but rather a bug I think. | 14:11 |
| awilkins | It feels like a bug to me :-) | 14:11 |
| awilkins | ALthough AFAIR it's optional behaviour in TSVN... I'll look at the settings dialogue | 14:11 |
| hmeland | Of course, in a distributed system, using the "commit time" for file timestamps could lead to clock skew related problems. | 14:11 |
| awilkins | Yech, there is that | 14:12 |
| awilkins | Ok, it's optional default to "off" in TSVN | 14:12 |
| awilkins | But I find myself comparing local file trees a lot more with bzr because branching is much more frequent | 14:13 |
| hmeland | Out of interest, which timestamp-sensitive tree compare tool are you using? | 14:14 |
| awilkins | Beyond Compare 2 | 14:14 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: any chance that could use bzrlib? | 14:15 |
| awilkins | It has a rules-based compare as well, which gives more accurate results, but it still marks the "newer" file if they are different | 14:15 |
| lifeless | awilkins: timestamps are not set to time of last revision deliberately | 14:15 |
| lifeless | awilkins: /away | 14:15 |
| awilkins | Would you be against an option to do so? | 14:16 |
| lifeless | awilkins: without a good reason, yes. :). We do have an open bug that the times should all be identical | 14:16 |
| awilkins | Is this because it's expensive to determine the last revision of individual files? | 14:18 |
| awilkins | Oh, anyone who does BzrGtk here? | 14:19 |
| hmeland | I've never used "Beyond Compare", but according to http://diablopup.blogspot.com/2007/07/product-recommendation-beyond-compare.html it would seem that it has an "ignore timestamp differences" option? | 14:19 |
| beuno | awilkins, jelmer and phanatic | 14:19 |
| phanatic | what did i wrong this time? :) | 14:20 |
| beuno | phanatic, bzr-gtk, apparently :p | 14:20 |
| awilkins | phanatic: Nothing, I just have a suggestion to make tool shelling a bit more flexible ; I'm currently operating with a very crude custom hack so I can use my 3-way merger of choice | 14:21 |
| awilkins | Using subprocess with a list of args isn't compatible because it uses an arg format that isn't MFC flavoured | 14:22 |
| awilkins | I've just hacked in a custom line for the tool I'm using using a % format string, but that obviously isn't portable to anyone else | 14:22 |
| awilkins | hmeland: Thanks for that, it's nice to learn new things about your favourite tools (even thought they are blindingly obvious) | 14:24 |
| hmeland | awilkins: No problem, glad to help :-) | 14:24 |
| awilkins | I just wish it did 3-way merge (have to wait for v3 to do that....) | 14:26 |
| lifeless | awilkins: several reasons. | 14:41 |
| lifeless | awilkins: one is that different machines have datestamp skew | 14:42 |
| lifeless | awilkins: another is that datestamp of commit is not sufficient to ensure correctness for build systems it in fact makes things worse than what we do today) | 14:42 |
| awilkins | Yes, I can see that too ; different platforms with different timezone behaviours too. | 14:42 |
| lifeless | awilkins: that too | 14:43 |
| * awilkins curses Win32 for having stupid TZ behaviour and has for many years | 14:43 | |
| awilkins | Do the dates in bzr try to be UTC internally, btw? | 14:44 |
| luks | awilkins: they are in local time + timezone | 14:46 |
| lifeless | Ng: want to stab loggerhead btw? | 14:46 |
| Ng | lifeless: sure | 14:46 |
| lifeless | awilkins: anyhow, what would settingthe datestamp for you buy you? | 14:47 |
| Ng | lifeless: done | 14:47 |
| awilkins | lifeless: the red "newer" highlights in my compare tool would be on the right side | 14:47 |
| lifeless | awilkins: ah; so the tool is broken ? :> | 14:59 |
| LarstiQ | well, if it's just a general tree compare tool, where else would it get the information from? | 14:59 |
| lifeless | LarstiQ: newer from datestamps is inherently meangingless in the presence of diff & patch | 14:59 |
| lifeless | awilkins: a plugin to 'reset' a tree timestamp state should be easy enough to write | 15:00 |
| awilkins | lifeless: I thought the same myself | 15:00 |
| awilkins | lifeless: "newer" has value if you are (e.g.) uploading content to an FTP with limited bandwidth and youre target FTP server does not support CRC | 15:01 |

| batoms | i had asked this a while back but is it possible with bazaar to branch from one remote tree to another remote tree without going through the local machine | 18:12 |
| batoms | e.g. can i branch from a launchpad tree to another launchpad tree without first downloading the first tree and reuploading it | 18:12 |
| awilkins | batoms: You could probably do it if you had ssh access to the target machine, but otherwise, no | 18:13 |
| awilkins | How does run the tests from inside a python console? | 18:15 |
| * awilkins is testing IronPython to see how lacking it is to run BZR | 18:15 | |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: os.system('./bzr selftest')? ;) | 18:15 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: I think we looked at IronPython yesterday and got a bit scared at the differences. | 18:16 |
| awilkins | Heh, I don't think the win32 "os" has system | 18:16 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: you should be able to do the same thing as cmd_selftest from bzrlib/builtins to kick off the testsuite. | 18:16 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: I'm rather sure it does. | 18:16 |
| awilkins | I tried import bzrlib | 18:17 |
| awilkins | then bzrlib.test_suite() | 18:17 |
| awilkins | Ran into an error :- | 18:17 |
| awilkins | Ah, I need to chdir to where bzr is | 18:17 |
| awilkins | LarstiQ: Maybe the IPY implementation of "os" has no .system() call. | 18:18 |
| LarstiQ | awilkins: from bzrlib.tests import selftest; selftest() | 18:18 |

| LarstiQ | awilkins: you have some work cut out for you | 18:19 |
| awilkins | I'm testing with IP 2.08 A which is a bit closer | 18:19 |
| awilkins | It's mostly idle interest and the promise of 1.8x performance (which is probably not true beacuse the performance critical stuff should be C) | 18:20 |
| * LarstiQ wasn't aware there was a 2.x line? | 18:20 | |
| * awilkins didn't bother with the 1.1 line | 18:20 | |
| awilkins | One problem is that it completly foobars most of your platform capability detection by reporting that sys.platform == 'cli' | 18:21 |
| awilkins | Most of your code uses osutils which could be patched, but most of the tests directly check sys.platform | 18:22 |
| awilkins | And of course, sys.platform is still 'cli' even when you run IPY on Mono/Linux | 18:22 |
| * awilkins has a bzr.iron branch with comments on each platform check. | 18:23 | |
| LeoNerd | http://changelog.complete.org/posts/698-If-Version-Control-Systems-were-Airlines.html <== Quite favourable to bzr, I think :) | 18:23 |
| awilkins | Heh, that's the third time I've seen that here today | 18:23 |

| Vantage | hi all, is bzr cvsps import working with bzr 1.1/1.2? | 20:12 |
| Vantage | i know it worked with 0.18 and broke with 0.96. I'm just wondering what the current status is | 20:13 |
| * LarstiQ doesn't know, but it should obviously | 20:14 | |
| Stavros1 | hello | 20:17 |
| Stavros1 | i would like a setup where i review changes made by people before committing to the master repo, how would i do that with bzr? | 20:18 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: you can do that in a multiple of ways. bzr.dev development does that with a combination of pqm and bundlebuggy | 20:20 |
| Stavros1 | hmm, i don't know what any of those are | 20:20 |
| LarstiQ | :) | 20:20 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: bzr.dev can only be committed to by pqm, which is a bot that you send a merge requested, it merges your branch when it gets to it in it's queue and enforces policy (in our case, it runs the testsuite) | 20:21 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: if it succeeds, it commits, otherwise, it rejects the merge | 20:22 |
| Stavros1 | oh hey, that's great | 20:22 |
| Stavros1 | does it notify you as well? | 20:22 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: bundlebuggy is a tool to help the review process, you send bundles to a mailing list, and it tracks if it's merged or not | 20:22 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: yes | 20:22 |
| Stavros1 | awesome | 20:22 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: see http://bundlebuggy.aaronbentley.com/ | 20:22 |
| Stavros1 | hmm i just looked at that, but i don't know how i can roll stuff back if it doesn't pass the code review | 20:23 |
| Stavros1 | (or something equivalent) | 20:23 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: roll stuff back? | 20:23 |
| Stavros1 | roll the commit back, if it shouldn't be in the repo | 20:23 |
| Stavros1 | i want to sort of check the commits to see if they should be committed to the main repo | 20:24 |
| Stavros1 | like pqm, only manual | 20:24 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: that would be a classical gatekeeper workflow methinks | 20:24 |
| Stavros1 | ah, i saw some info on that but i couldn't find the page now | 20:24 |
| Stavros1 | oh found it, workflows | 20:25 |
| Stavros1 | yes, that's it | 20:25 |
| Stavros1 | i don't want to set up an entire system for that though, it's going to be just me and someone else at first | 20:25 |
| Stavros1 | so what can i do? create a branch and always have them push there? | 20:26 |
| Stavros1 | and rebranch if i don't want to include the commit? | 20:26 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: well, they can publish their own branch, and you then merge from it, review, accept/reject by committing or reverting | 20:27 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: or, get the other person to use `bzr send` | 20:27 |
| Stavros1 | bzr send sounds nice | 20:28 |
| Stavros1 | it sends me mail and then what do i do? | 20:28 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: you can read the diff and see if you want to have it, then bzr merge it | 20:29 |
| Vantage | how do you guys deal with having large quantities of binary files that are versioned (e.g. images and flash files for a website) along with your code. These would make branches fairly large. Is there a way to have make having multiple branches on a machine a little less disk space expensive? | 20:29 |
| LarstiQ | Stavros1: or merge it and then do some checks, you have options :) | 20:29 |
| LarstiQ | Vantage: yes | 20:30 |
| weigon | can you see in a bzr push which revno I got on the remote-tree ? | 20:30 |
| LarstiQ | Vantage: you can use a shared repository to share revisions between branches | 20:30 |
| LarstiQ | Vantage: and if it's about working trees, see link-tree from bzrtools | 20:30 |
| Vantage | LarstiQ: and just use bzr switch to switch between them? | 20:30 |
| LarstiQ | Vantage: that's an option, yes | 20:31 |
| Vantage | LarstiQ: that was the one I thought of. Any other options? I'm googling link-tree right now... | 20:31 |
| LarstiQ | Vantage: I don't know right now | 20:32 |
| * LarstiQ gets back to hacking for a while | 20:33 | |
| Vantage | LarstiQ: ok, thanks. When you said "an option" I thought you meant you knew of others :) | 20:33 |
| jelmer | Odd_Bloke: What exactly does "owner" on the brainstorm page mean? | 20:40 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: Person in charge of making it happen, I guess. | 20:44 |

| LarstiQ | jelmer: xp style terminology I think | 20:52 |
| Stavros1 | i have a server running linux, what are my options for a read-only bzr repo? | 20:55 |
| Odd_Bloke | Stavros1: HTTP. :) | 20:56 |
| Stavros1 | Odd_Bloke: oh, with apache? does it also support auth? | 20:56 |
| jelmer | Odd_Bloke: and contributors? The people who contributed to the discussion @ the sprint or the people interested in contributing? | 20:56 |
| Odd_Bloke | Stavros1: I'm not sure about auth, I'm afraid. | 20:56 |
| Stavros1 | does it use apache? | 20:57 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: People who are anticipated to help out in the implementation (I guess). | 20:57 |
| Vantage | couldn't you just set permissions on the tree and use ssh? | 20:57 |
| Odd_Bloke | Stavros1: Posting to the ML or asking a question is probably the best thing to do, most of the Bazaar guys are heading to the pub right now (end of sprint :D). | 20:58 |
| james_w | jelmer: I think the "owner" is the person that you should talk to if you are interested in the feature. Contributors are those that are interested in it. | 20:58 |
| Stavros1 | Odd_Bloke: ah :p | 20:58 |
| james_w | Though the owner are the ones that are probably going to drive it if it is going to happen. | 20:58 |
| Stavros1 | Vantage: i probably could... i don't want to give people access to the machine, though | 20:58 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: you could put that copy on a separate machine (or virtual machine) and just push to it when you do releases | 20:59 |
| Stavros1 | ah, i don't have another machine (even virtual) to spare... | 21:00 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: well they'll have to access somewhere ;) | 21:00 |
| Stavros1 | they can access the server, just not all of it :P | 21:01 |
| Stavros1 | i wonder if i can chroot it | 21:01 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: I remember something called scponly which might work | 21:08 |
| Stavros1 | aha, i'll check it out, thanks | 21:08 |
| igc | jelmer: owner means "I'll guide/monitor this" | 21:08 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: you can also do lighter virtual servers with linux-vserver or openvz I believe. They don't do hardware vm | 21:08 |
| jelmer | Odd_Bloke, james_w, igc: Thanks! | 21:09 |
| igc | jelmer: Contributor means "I'll do the work if the owner doesn't" :-) | 21:09 |
| Stavros1 | Vantage: well the apache solution sounds nice, do you have any info on that? | 21:09 |
| beuno | jelmer, so being the owner is where you want to be | 21:09 |
| Stavros1 | or actually i can just use ftp on another branch, i guess | 21:09 |
| LarstiQ | beuno: unless you have zero contributors. | 21:09 |
| igc | s/if/IF/ | 21:10 |
| beuno | LarstiQ, that just means you have to blog a lot | 21:10 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: well apache is just putting it up on a publically accessible webserver, not sure about authentication support for bzr with that though, probably... | 21:10 |
| Stavros1 | Vantage: oh duh, you're right :/ | 21:10 |
| Stavros1 | bzr has http access... | 21:10 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: yup :) | 21:10 |
| Stavros1 | so i can just point apache to the repo | 21:10 |
| Stavros1 | well that's simple enough | 21:10 |
| Stavros1 | actually i have trac with the bzr plugin, does that expose the functionality? | 21:12 |
| Stavros1 | i mean the repo | 21:12 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: they can browse it, but I don't think they can branch from it (but I could be wrong) | 21:14 |
| Stavros1 | hmm, i was wondering if it has a url that points to the bare directory | 21:15 |
| zepard | hi | 21:17 |
| Vantage | Stavros1: it might. Shouldn't be hard to set one up if it doesn't though | 21:18 |
| LarstiQ | jelmer: oi, you added me to Line Endings ;P | 21:20 |
| jelmer | LarstiQ: Yeah, I initially assumed this was about who contributed to the actual discussion | 21:20 |
| jelmer | LarstiQ: You shouldn't be there any more now | 21:20 |
| Stavros1 | Vantage: indeed, i'm doing it as we speak | 21:21 |
| Stavros1 | it would just be nicer if it had one | 21:21 |
| Stavros1 | i'll open a ticket | 21:21 |
| igc | night all | 21:22 |
| james_w | fooooooood! | 21:22 |
| beuno | food+1 | 21:22 |
| LarstiQ | fair enough | 21:22 |
| phanatic | food++ | 21:23 |
| Odd_Bloke | http://icanhascheezburger.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/funny-pictures-pandas-eating-noms.jpg | 21:24 |
| Stavros1 | it works! thanks for your help | 21:28 |
| Stavros1 | auth works too, since it's a normal directory | 21:28 |
| dato | oh, no james_w | 22:19 |
| abentley | dato: They were off to the pub last I heard. | 22:34 |
| dato | ok, thanks | 22:34 |
| blueyed | Can you query the last "push" to a repo (or "commit" for a checkout)? Is this "latest revision" in "bzr info -v"? | 22:35 |
| bpeterson | blueyed: yes | 22:38 |
| blueyed | well.. unfortunately "bzr info" is probably slower than "bzr commit". is there a shorter path for getting this info? | 22:45 |
| dato | blueyed: sorry, I did not understad your problem very well? | 22:46 |
| dato | maybe you want `bzr log -r -1 | grep timestamp` ? | 22:47 |
| dato | gotta go now | 22:47 |
| blueyed | dato: I'm thinking about optimizing the add-5-a-day tool: only commit if the last commit is older than 1h. | 22:47 |
| blueyed | yes.. makes sense and is faster. | 22:48 |
| bpeterson | blueyed: I'd try bzr log | 22:48 |
| awilkins | blueyed: how about bzr revision-info | 23:14 |
| awilkins | blueyed: forget it, that doesn't have the TZ offset in the time | 23:15 |
| awilkins | But it is UTC though.... | 23:15 |
| blueyed | awilkins: it's quite some faster.. There is probably something better even in bzrlib though, which does not require using the email module to parse the output of a subprocess.. ;) | 23:21 |
| awilkins | Email module? Just take the split between the first and second "-" | 23:28 |
| awilkins | Or a regexp of 14 digits beginning with "20" | 23:29 |
| blueyed | awilkins: yes, from rev-info, but not from log.. a subprocess it bad though, isn't it - if I'm already in python.. can't I use bzrlib for this? | 23:29 |
| awilkins | blueyed: Yes, of course you can | 23:29 |
| ubotu | New bug: #199654 in baltix "bzr on fat32/ntfs from ubuntu works only with sudo init/commit" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/199654 | 23:29 |
| ubotu | New bug: #199655 in bzr "bzr status shows pending merges with incorrect indentation" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/199655 | 23:29 |
| ubotu | New bug: #199659 in bzr "editor backup file left over after bzr commit" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/199659 | 23:30 |
| blueyed | awilkins: any hints where to look in bzrlib? | 23:34 |
| awilkins | branch.py is where I'm looking | 23:34 |
| awilkins | from bzrlib import branch ; b = branch.Branch.open(branchRoot) ; b.last_revision_info() ; # that seems to work | 23:37 |
| awilkins | Doesn't work for alternative revid formats like bzr-svn though | 23:41 |
| jelmer | There is no guarantee that standard revids follow that format either | 23:42 |
| awilkins | How do you make a python object tell you what members it contains? | 23:44 |
| awilkins | I can't be arse to pick through all the source looking for what revision_history() emits | 23:45 |
| Odd_Bloke | Evening all. | 23:46 |
| blueyed | awilkins: I use ipython and tab for that.. | 23:46 |
| blueyed | ipython is really awesome wrt to tab-completion.. in fact it's also a shell replacement I've heard.. ;) | 23:47 |
| awilkins | bah, theyre just strngs anyway | 23:48 |
| blueyed | awilkins: yes, b.last_revision() seems to be the closest so far.. | 23:48 |
| awilkins | blueyed: But you can't rely on the format and it's just a string | 23:49 |
| jelmer | b = Branch.open("foo") | 23:51 |
| jelmer | b.repository.get_revision(b.last_revision()) | 23:51 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: o/ | 23:51 |
| jelmer | that last line will return a revision object which contains the commit timestamp among other things | 23:52 |
| jelmer | hey Daniel | 23:52 |
| * awilkins discovers __dict__ | 23:52 | |
| blueyed | jelmer: thanks, r.timestamp is it.. | 23:53 |
| Odd_Bloke | jelmer: LarstiQ, Verterok, beuno, phanatic and I are sitting in the bar at the hotel with our laptops out. \o/ | 23:54 |
| jelmer | Odd_Bloke: Which is why you're currently talking with me on IRC ? ;-) | 23:54 |
| beuno | Odd_Bloke, with girls, of course (?) | 23:54 |
| jelmer | *without laptop* >-) | 23:54 |
| jelmer | ah | 23:55 |
| jelmer | out as in you have them in front of you | 23:55 |
| jelmer | not as in you have them turned off | 23:55 |
| jelmer | well, I'm getting some sleep | 23:56 |
| jelmer | slept a total of 8 hours in total in the last two days and not much during the sprint either | 23:57 |
| jelmer | Say hi to the other folks over there for me! | 23:57 |
| beuno | jelmer, how was your exam? | 23:57 |
| jelmer | beuno: It went ok, but not brilliant. | 23:57 |
| jelmer | with a bit of luck, I'll pass it | 23:58 |
| beuno | jelmer, well, bzr-gtk got better, so that might help for your conscious | 23:58 |
| jelmer | :-) | 23:58 |
| james_w | hi jelmer. Sorry I missed you at the sprint. | 23:59 |
| james_w | Sleep well. | 23:59 |
