| mwhudson_ | also sftp sucks | 01:02 |
| lifeless | mwhudson_: details please | 01:06 |
| lifeless | mwhudson_: unlock should raise some exceptions | 01:07 |
| mwhudson_ | lifeless: the problem was that the unlock in a finally block was raising and obscuring the reason we ended up in the finally | 01:07 |
| lifeless | mwhudson_: yes, that combination is annoying; OTOH its probably raising becuse the network is gone and an attempt to unlock failed | 01:08 |
| spiv | Hmm, ISTR Martin was working on fixing that, based on a hack I did. | 01:09 |
| mwhudson_ | lifeless: well actually it's because of much more complicating things than that :) | 01:09 |
| mwhudson_ | i'll probably be complaining in here when we've worked out what the details are | 01:09 |

| Mez | Is there a way with bzr so that I can make it update revision numbers within the file? | 01:33 |
| Mez | like svn's keywords things | 01:33 |
| lifeless | its being developed at the moment | 01:34 |
| Vadi | My bzr is hosted on launchpad, and for some reason after I've commited & pushed a new revision, and the launchpad page updated properly, when people do "bzr update" it says they're OK while they're at an older revision. But if they checkout from scratch, they get the latest one fine. What can be wrong? | 02:12 |
| RAOF | Vadi: 'bzr update' doesn't do what you think it does. | 02:13 |
| Vadi | Oops. But I read the help file and thought I was getting it right. What's the proper way to update then? | 02:14 |
| RAOF | 'pull' (or possibly merge) is the complement of 'push'. | 02:14 |
| RAOF | bzr update makes sure that the working tree matches the repository. Since their working trees already match their (local) repository, it doesn't do anything. | 02:15 |
| Vadi | Ohh | 02:15 |
| Vadi | heh, I see. Thank you | 02:16 |
| RAOF | _Unless_ they're using 'checkout' rather than 'branch'. | 02:16 |
| Vadi | It's whatever launchpad says... moment | 02:16 |
| RAOF | But checkout gives SVN-like behaviour, and is not what most people do with bzr branches. | 02:16 |
| Vadi | RAOF: Got it, thank you! | 02:19 |
| lifeless | hmm, someone broke test reporting. | 02:48 |
| lifeless | spiv: thanks | 02:56 |

| Vadi | Is there any way to download a file from a bzr branch without bzr? (like on a web server?) | 03:24 |
| lifeless | if the web server is running loggerhead or bzr-webserve | 03:24 |
| lifeless | then yes | 03:24 |
| Vadi | It is running loggerhead. | 03:25 |
| Vadi | Is it possible to get the file at it's latest revision though? The only links I could find on loggerhead are tied to a specific revision. | 03:26 |
| spiv | You can use HEAD in the URL, IIRC. | 03:27 |
| Vadi | Could you please give an example? Newbie here. | 03:28 |
| lifeless | for instance: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr-loom-devs/bzr-loom/trunk/annotate/head:/HOWTO | 03:29 |
| spiv | Or http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr/bzr/trunk/download/head:/README-20050309040720-8f368abf9f346b9d/README | 03:31 |
| lifeless | spiv: can we not avoid the file-id like I did | 03:33 |
| lifeless | ? | 03:33 |
| Vadi | Is the README-2005 and whatnot part of the filename? | 03:33 |
| lifeless | no its a nasty url generation | 03:34 |
| lifeless | coming from the internal database | 03:34 |
| Vadi | hrm. So I turned http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vadi-mapper-dev/vadi-mapper/main/download/vadi%40ubuntu-laptop-20080505020006-hkitvfgtqoqiw2ry/imap-20080225191626-smuh5chmryg7edgm-1/IMap into http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vadi-mapper-dev/vadi-mapper/main/download/head:/IMap | 03:35 |

| berto- | ah, figured it out. I had to fully path my repository rather than relative to my home dir. | 08:40 |
| bob2 | how sure are you that it is a branch? ie does 'echo "ls /path/to/branch/.bzr" | sftp hostname' show it contains a 'branch' dir? | 08:40 |
| spiv | berto-: you can use "sftp://host/~/path" for an sftp URL relative to your home dir. | 08:48 |
| berto- | spiv: cool, i'll remember that. | 09:01 |
| berto- | my sftp:// connection keeps on failing with a "server connection dropped". is there anything I need to configure for sftp to work properly? | 09:04 |

| fullermd | bzr log -v | less [search for filename] | 16:49 |
| cr3 | fullermd: that worked! it just so happened I did not the path name of the file but bzr log only returned an error message: Path does not have any revision history:... | 16:51 |
| cr3 | fullermd: just in case I typoed, I pasted the path from bzr log -v and I still get the same error message | 16:52 |
| cr3 | is bzr log supposed to work with files which have been deleted? | 16:52 |
| fullermd | Well, supposed to or not, it doesn't. It uses the path to look up the file-id from the current tree, so on deleted files... | 16:52 |
| fullermd | You may be able to `revert -r<revbeforeremoved> $FILE` and then `log $FILE`, I'm not sure. You can do a lightweight checkout of the rev before it was removed, then log from that checkout. | 16:53 |
| fullermd | See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/175520 (which has nothing other than a "hey, this doesn't work", sadly, but it's filed anyway) | 16:54 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 175520 in bzr "log can't see historic filenames" [Undecided,New] | 16:54 |

| dato | jelmer: I uploaded bzrtools, also with d-u-a | 16:55 |
| cr3 | hm, I can appreciate the problem where a file may have been removed and then created again, at which point log perhaps should or should not encompass the previous file | 16:56 |
| jelmer | dato, ah, awesome. | 16:56 |
| jelmer | dato, I'm working on bzr-svn atm, I guess that just leaves bzr-builddeb outdated | 16:56 |
| dato | jelmer: hm | 16:56 |
| fullermd | cr3: Well, there are 2 distinct cases. One is where a file exists, is removed, and another file with the same name (but a different file) is added. The other is when a file exists, is removed, and is resurrected (e.g. by 'revert'), so it's the same file, it just didn't exist in some revs in the middle. | 16:57 |
| dato | jelmer: I guess I forgot to add you as a bzrtools uploader | 16:57 |

| jelmer | sidnei, yeah, that's probably correct | 20:03 |

| sidnei | jelmer: ok, i guess i will just let it finish then | 20:17 |
| _paneb | a repository is where i can store many branches right? | 20:52 |
| MattCampbell | Yes, if it's a shared repository created with "bzr init-repository". | 20:54 |
| _paneb | i am looking at "Choosing a shared repository layout" but i am confused about how to actually create those layouts. it all starts by doing bzr init-repo MyRepo? | 21:00 |
| _paneb | section 5.2 (Publishing a branch) is how to do it, right? | 21:01 |
| MattCampbell | I wonder how easily one could port bzr to IronPython. I was thinking that might be useful for the Visual Studio integration package, which is currently written in C#. | 21:20 |
| === cody-somerville_ is now known as cody-somerville | ||
| Peng | MattCampbell: People have looked into this. Mainly, isn't IronPython startup horribly slow? Also, it's missing several modules from the stdlib that bzr uses. | 21:25 |
| sidnei | look at fepy (ironpython + stdlib) | 21:26 |
| sidnei | jelmer: seems like it finished with the svn ls thingie, 89 minutes :) | 21:33 |
| sidnei | jelmer: now the process is at 90% and there's lots of io going on, i guess it's writing the cache? | 21:35 |
| sidnei | (90% cpu that is) | 21:36 |
| MattCampbell | Peng: One would need to measure the startup time of IronPython (or FePy) in an already running application that uses in .NET. Also, consider that in a long-running app with a plug-in, such as Visual Studio, the startup overhead would only be incurred once per session, not once per action as with the command line. | 21:40 |
| MattCampbell | Anyway, it was just a tought; I thought it would be useful to be able to write the Visual Studio integration in Python, with less glue code than the current C# implementation. | 21:43 |
| wam | I'm using bzr all over and want to give my customers access to their bzr repository via www. Is loggerhead the best choice? At least I find it beautiful ;) | 21:44 |
| jam | wam: if you just want them to have access, you only need plain Apache | 21:45 |
| wam | jam: I want them to make diffs and see logs | 21:46 |
| jam | if you want them to be able to browse the repository with a web browser, then yes, loggerhead is probably the best choice | 21:46 |
| jam | It is the most actively maintained, IIRC | 21:46 |
| wam | jam: is there active development? I see the last log is from 2007... | 21:46 |
| jam | wam: I believe so, I'm not sure where the latest changes are | 21:46 |
| wam | jam: ok, thanks | 21:47 |
| jam | wam: according to: https://edge.launchpad.net/loggerhead/trunk | 21:47 |
| jam | there was a release of 1.2.1 on 2008-03-06 | 21:47 |
| wam | jam: wow - I didn't know that url | 21:47 |
| jam | And https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~loggerhead-team/loggerhead/trunk says that there were 3 changes in the last month | 21:48 |
| jam | wam: what url were you using? | 21:48 |
| wam | jam: http://www.lag.net/loggerhead/ | 21:48 |
| jam | just to make sure we update a pointer | 21:48 |
| jam | wam: right, robey has given over development to others | 21:48 |
| wam | jam: i see | 21:48 |
| jam | wam: where did you get the link to lag.net | 21:48 |
| jam | wam: I believe the latest version is running at: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr/bzr/trunk/changes | 21:49 |
| wam | jam: search "web" on http://bazaar-vcs.org/ and the 4th hit is http://bazaar-vcs.org/WebInterface?highlight=%28web%29 | 21:50 |
| wam | jam: alright, thanks. I'll try that | 21:50 |

| jam | lifeless: morning | 22:03 |
| _paneb | how would i create the shared repository used for distributed development? like so? 1- on a server: bzr init-repo X; bzr init foo, and 2- on a workstation: bzr branch stfp://server-address/foo? | 22:06 |
| Peng | _paneb: The sftp path is relative to the root of the server, but otherwise, yeah. | 22:08 |
| Peng | _paneb: You'd also probably want/need to specify a user. | 22:09 |
| _paneb | right right, i was just wondering about the commands | 22:09 |
| _paneb | so when creating the main repository, there is not difference with creating the main repo. for centralized development? | 22:10 |
| _paneb | it is just the way you work with the main repo which changes? | 22:10 |
| Peng | _paneb: Yeah. | 22:11 |
| _paneb | ok | 22:11 |
| MattCampbell | Given that bzr-cvsps-import claims to only support local CVS repositories so far, is it possible to import the CVS repository of a project for which you're not an administrator? I'm wondering specifically about SourceForge.net projects that never switched to svn. | 22:18 |
| === mwhudson__ is now known as mwhudson | ||
| lifeless | MattCampbell: sf publish tarballs of the cvs repositories anonymously | 22:32 |
| lifeless | jam: ping | 22:45 |
| jam | lifeless: pong | 22:45 |
| lifeless | jam: how do you feel about removing the C knit parser? | 22:45 |
| jam | lifeless: Seems ok. As knits performance is sort of going down the tubes anyway, it probably won't help much soon. | 22:47 |
| lifeless | (It doesn't feel like _load_data is relevant for packs, and for older code I weight maintenance clarity much more) | 22:47 |
| jam | lifeless: well, ATM I feel like pack index performance is penalized by something other than the time to parse them | 22:48 |
| jam | I don't know if when we fix it we will find we want something there as well | 22:48 |
| poolie | hello jam | 22:48 |
| jam | but certainly loading knit indexes isn't going to be a primary concern going forward | 22:48 |
| jam | hi poolie | 22:48 |
| poolie | hello lifeless | 22:48 |
| === mario__ is now known as pygi | ||
| poolie | lifeless: that would further increase my desire to give people a warning to upgrade | 22:49 |
| lifeless | poolie: I thought we agreed on the list to do such a warning a couple weeks back :) | 22:49 |
| poolie | someone should write it hey? :) | 22:50 |
| lifeless | yup | 22:50 |
| poolie | vila has a patch that disables some strace tests, is that ok with you in principle? | 22:51 |
| lifeless | mmm | 22:53 |
| lifeless | why? | 22:53 |
| jam | lifeless: because it hangs the test suite when you have a thread lying around | 22:53 |
| lifeless | jam: I remember we had issues with that; so why are we leaving a thread lying around? | 22:54 |
| jam | lifeless: it is one of the bugs we have open | 22:55 |
| jam | I think there is even a FIXME about it | 22:55 |
| jam | if you look at vincent's recent posts he talks about it | 22:55 |
| lifeless | I'd really rather not have disabled tests; if a separate bug is the core issue, can we not fix that? | 22:56 |
| lifeless | can we check that there is only one thread in the process before the strace test, and fail the test in that case? | 22:57 |
| MattCampbell | Is it even possible to count the threads in a process in Python? | 22:59 |
| lifeless | MattCampbell: doesn't matter if it isn't possible | 22:59 |
| lifeless | MattCampbell: we can at worst manually track them | 22:59 |
| jam | I believe there is something in the threading package | 23:00 |
| jam | lifeless: threading.activeCount() | 23:00 |
| poolie | lifeless: the thing is that the strace functions are not even used at present | 23:00 |
| lifeless | poolie: I use them from time to time | 23:04 |
| lifeless | poolie: its like saying lsprof isn't even used. Its not used except when it is used. | 23:04 |
| lifeless | Its really quite useful being able to strace a single function call | 23:05 |
| MattCampbell | Given that bzr itself doesn't use the strace functions, and they're probably only intended as instrumentation for performance tuning anyway, I don't think it makes sense to run the strace tests by default. But of course, I'm new here and just a bzr user, so what I say probably doesn't have much weight. | 23:05 |
| lifeless | MattCampbell: untested code is broken code | 23:05 |
| lifeless | MattCampbell: most code isn't run by most users most of the time, so by the same style of argument we shouldn't run tests for most of our code | 23:06 |
| lifeless | vila: please don't merge it for a little bit | 23:09 |
| lifeless | vila: I'm not going to veto, but I want time to suade people | 23:10 |
| jam | lifeless: you should probably reply to the thread, since poolie has bb:tweak ed it | 23:10 |
| lifeless | jam: I have replied | 23:10 |
| jam | lifeless: just got it :) | 23:10 |
| lifeless | anyhow, I think all tests should check for the activeCount at the start of the test, and assert its unchanged at the end | 23:11 |
| lifeless | this will catch faulty tests and avoid the error condition breaking the strace test | 23:11 |
| MattCampbell | Of course, this assumes that all threads in the process except the main thread are started via the threading module. | 23:13 |
| jam | MattCampbell: sure, but I believe for the threads we care about, that is true | 23:13 |
| lifeless | MattCampbell: given that we have complete control over the environment | 23:14 |
| lifeless | MattCampbell: I think this is a fair assessment | 23:14 |
| jam | i feel like there might be extra threads, but they should have been spawned by one of our own threads | 23:17 |
| lifeless | the most likely one I can think of is sftp access threads | 23:18 |
| lifeless | but AFAICT paramiko is pretty darn good at housekeeping | 23:18 |
| poolie | lifeless: maybe we should change the strace function itself to assert there are no threads? | 23:26 |
| poolie | well, no more than 1 thread | 23:26 |
| poolie | :) | 23:26 |
| MattCampbell | I think it would be better to check the count before and after each test; that should make it easier to find the culprit. | 23:29 |
| poolie | MattCampbell: well, yes but very little code runs _between_ one test and the next | 23:34 |
| MattCampbell | But how far away in the sequence of tests is the strace test from the test that's leaving a thread lying around? Do we know? | 23:36 |
| lifeless | poolie: between is not needed, just the last things done in tearDown()/cleanUp() | 23:40 |
| lifeless | poolie: the first cleanup added can be a lambda to check the count | 23:40 |
| poolie | lifeless: exactly | 23:59 |
| poolie | ok, that sounds nice | 23:59 |
