BBHossanyone know why bzr would lock up pulling a large repo ~300 MB on a system with only 256MB RAM?00:29

suji1Hi, I give the command bzr add filename , it shows an error the current directory is not a branch (bzr: ERROR: Not a branch)06:09

ubottuUbuntu bug 375898 in bzr "bzr merge fails: bzr: ERROR: No final name for trans_id 'new-1'" [Medium,Triaged]08:42
cody-somervilleguh08:45
cody-somervilleAnd I've just been bitten by the bzr format incompatibilities :(08:45
LarstiQcody-somerville: which formats?10:55
cody-somervillepack-0.98 and rich root pack I think10:56
LarstiQright, non-rr vs rr10:59
LarstiQcody-somerville: I'm happy to note that once we get 2a where we want it, there is a default format with rich roots, no more of that one-way-barrier after that (well, everyone will be on this side of the barrier)11:00
LarstiQcody-somerville: right now it's a huge pain11:01
james_wwe should probably improve that error message before 2.011:02
james_wI imagine a lot of people will hit it and it's not the most helpful error11:02
LarstiQjames_w: you mean the trans_id one or the rr-format one?11:03
james_wrr-format11:03
LarstiQright11:03
james_wthe trans_id one should just be fixed :-)11:03

LarstiQjelmer___: I have bugs to file.  If we agree we can go ahead with the upgrade-guide approach before fixing them, a date should be picked for the upgrade.11:32

lifelessLarstiQ: I really don't like breaking *all* the metadata about existing branches11:43
lifelessLarstiQ: I'd /much/ much much much rather fix the bugs11:43

mathrickhiya13:16
mathrickdoes anyone know if bzr-svn supports history horizons yet?13:16
mathrickI know it does stacked branches, but that's a bit excessive in that it needs network for *all* access to old data, if I understand correctly13:17
mathrickjelmer___: poke13:28
jelmer___mathrick: hi13:28
mathrickjelmer___: does bzr-svn do history horizons yet? If I understand correctly, --stacked will want to access network for all past revisions, no?13:29
mathrickalso, I have a repo that fail a stacked get with 0.6.2 here13:29
jelmer___mathrick: history horizons != stacked branches afaik13:29
jelmer___mathrick: what command are you trying to run exactly that fails?13:29
* fullermd suspects getting history horizons in bzr-svn will be somewhat difficult before there are history horizons in bzr...13:30
mathrickjelmer___: http://pastebin.com/f1df8f6df13:30
jelmer___mathrick: stacked branches don't work in bzr-svn13:31
jelmer___mathrick: svn doesn't support stacking itself13:31
jelmer___mathrick: and bzr doesn't support stacking between different formats13:31
mathrickjelmer___: æh? But you tell to use stacked branches in the FAQ13:32
jelmer___oh, is that still there?13:32
jelmer___bzr-svn supported stacking for a while through a hack, but I removed that a while ago13:33
mathrickoh13:33
jelmer___mathrick: I don't see any comments about that in the FAQ, only " 30 In the future it should hopefully be possible to use stacked branches.13:33
jelmer___"13:33
mathrickit should just fail with "stacked branches not supported" then13:33
mathrickjelmer___: http://samba.org/~jelmer/bzr-svn/FAQ.html#cloning-a-large-subversion-branch-is-very-slow :)13:34
jelmer___mathrick: ah, I should probably remove that copy13:34
mathrickI believe it's also there in the bzr wiki13:34
jelmer___mathrick: I agree the error message could be clearer but afaik you get the same error message when trying to stack a bzr branch onto a different format bzr branch13:35
mathrickjelmer___: well, sure, but if you know svn doesn't support stacking, you could just catch it and tell the user outright, instead of after all the metadata is fetched13:35
jelmer___mathrick: nope, that can only be done in bzr itself, as bzr-svn doesn't know when a stacking clone is happening13:36
jelmer___mathrick: I've removed the FAQ from my homepage, can't find any references on the wiki though. Where did you see it?13:37
jelmer___mathrick: sorry for the confusion13:39
mathrickjelmer___: nah, I was wrong about the wiki13:41
mathrickand no problem, it's still a good solid plugin you have there :)13:41
visik7anyone using bazaar + buildout ? which parts of your project did you version ?13:45
jelmer___mathrick: thanks :-)13:46
lifelessvisik7: the only folk I know doing that are the launchpad folk, someoe in #launchpad-dev may be able to tell you14:09
fullermdHmm...14:11
fullermdAm I missing the magic to make branch: revspecs not blow up with a ReadOnlyError?14:11
verterokLarstiQ: no, the installer don't include PyQt nor Qt itself, but checks if PyQt is available and [dis|en]able the qbzr option15:09

fullermdigc: BTW, keywords plugin is making selftest fail, looking for now-renamed workingtree_implementations.15:27
jelmer____"bzr send --format=git" works for the most part, main thing missing is support for sending more than one revision since that implies sending multiple attachments :-)15:43

ronnyyo16:21
ronnyis there anz convention/notion to figure the "default" branch of a shared repository16:22
ronnyie something semilar to trunk in svn, master in git and default in hg16:23
fullermd'trunk' is probably the more common, but I don't think there's any particular community pressure one way or another.16:23
ronnyhmk, so i go for try trunk, try the repo itself, then fail16:24

jelmer____Luke-Jr, I don't see any new merge reviews..16:51
LarstiQlifeless: good, I'd personally prefer fixing bugs first so that we can upgrade in place, I agree it is a far preferable workflow17:59
jetolehey guys, I just copied the wrong file over a repo file minutes after I checked it in to launch pad, how can I tell bzr to revert it back to what launchpad has on my system?17:59
LarstiQjetole: `bzr revert`?18:00
* jetole reads it over (although sounds right from what I remember from SVN)18:00
LarstiQif that's not what you're looking for, I didn't understand your description of the situation correctly18:01
jetoleno it was18:04
jetoleit worked perfectly18:04

Moofhi18:29
MoofI'm trying to get to grips with something here.18:29
MoofI'm goign to be developing various projects on my machine. They'll all be stored in directories in remote servers. On my local machine, can I get away with creating one repository, and storing multiple branches form different servers in it?18:31
NEBAPit's possible to init a repository on a ftp server18:32
NEBAPis it also possible to recursively add folders and files to it?18:32
NEBAPdirectly on the ftp server18:35
NEBAPno ideas?18:41
NEBAPor is it not possible?18:41
NEBAPhmm19:00
NEBAPno ideas how I can add the files remotely?19:00
NEBAPno one online?19:15
mzzNEBAP: I think there's a plugin for that somewhere19:37
NEBAPI've used the init to initialize a standalone branch on the ftp server which worked without problems19:38
NEBAPthen I've used checkout to create a local branch19:38
NEBAPand added the necessary files there19:38
NEBAPafter changing some files I've commited the bind branch to the ftp server19:39
NEBAPwhich also worked without problems19:39
NEBAPbut the files on the server are not changed19:39
NEBAPwhat is wrong?19:39
NEBAPthe history is up to date19:40
NEBAPbut the files arent19:40
NEBAPI've just used "bzr update" on the bound branch19:40
