meoblast001hi04:00
meoblast001i can't seem to find the command to change my email04:00
meoblast001nvm04:01
meoblast001why do all my commits i made on my desktop say branch nick is "trunk" while the one i just made on my desktop says "nitrobot-plugins"04:04
meoblast001i actually copied the directory from my desktop, so this makes no sense unless different bazaar versions do things differently04:05
pooliewe fixed a bug a while ago todo with calculating the nick from the branch directory not the checkout04:09
poolieso that might be it04:09
meoblast001so i need to upgrade my bazaar version?04:10
meoblast001yuck, i'm using an ugly 9.04 version04:10
pooliewell, i think you can just set the nick directly if you want04:10
meoblast001poolie: i just installed 2.1.0 but i still get 1.13.1 on a bzr --version04:20
pooliei guess you have it installed in home or something04:20
poolietry 'which bzr'04:20
meoblast001sudo python setup.py instal04:20
meoblast001/usr/local/bin/bzr04:20
meoblast001i'll just remove my system version from APT04:25
meoblast001hm, now it won't look in /usr/local/bin04:26
meoblast001ah, it was that one shell04:27
meoblast001ok, should be good now04:27
meoblast001poolie: still says "nitrobot-plugins"04:28
meoblast001poolie: should i just do bzr nick manually because voodoo magic changed my branch name?04:30
poolieperhaps that's the simplest way out04:30
poolieyou could look in .bzr/branch04:31
meoblast001will it do anything strange to my branch?04:31
pooliei can't remember if it's a specific nick file or in the branch config04:31
poolieno04:31
meoblast001ok04:31
meoblast001.bzr/branch is a directory04:31
meoblast001oh no, panic attack04:33
meoblast001this makes no sense04:34
meoblast001it keeps saying that the branch name is the directory name04:34
meoblast001that's a lie, it's always been trunk, and i don't know why04:34
meoblast001i need consistancy04:34
meoblast001poolie: everything i branch refuses to use the branch name "trunk"04:37
meoblast001it now wants to use the directory name04:37
pooliemeoblast001: if you say 'bzr nick FOO' it should use that on all new commits04:38
poolieno?04:38
meoblast001sure, but i never had to do this in the past, and the question "why?" still sticks in my head04:38
meoblast001on my desktop, i always just branched, worked, committed04:39
meoblast001and it was always consistant04:39
pooliei'm not sure what you're doing differently04:43
meoblast001poolie: absolutely nothing04:44
poolieactually the normal behaviour is to use the directory name of the branch04:44
poolienot sure why it was always saying trunk before04:44
meoblast001so why did it ever use trunk?04:44
meoblast001i don't want to rebase this whole thing04:44
meoblast001jeez, what ever happened to consistency04:44
meoblast001ok, looks like i'm using a new branch name until something else screws up and it switches back04:45
poolieperhaps you're mixing branches on one machine and checkouts on another?04:45
meoblast001?04:46
pooliethat could account for the difference in behaviour04:46
meoblast001poolie: sorry, i'm sort of an idiot when it comes to a lot of this stuff04:49
meoblast001what are you trying to say i could have done wrong?04:49
poolienp, i'm just trying to guess at what might have changed04:50
poolieif you were using checkouts or bound branches in one place and branches in the other04:50
meoblast001well, let me explain the history of this directory04:50
meoblast001this was a branch on my old system04:50
pooliethat could explain teh difference04:50
meoblast001when my system got hosed, i copied over a bunch of directories to my laptop, including those04:50
meoblast001i started working on those same directories, just on a different system04:51
meoblast001oh no, more panic04:51
meoblast001i guess i should just accept the new branch name, and scream at my desktop when it tries to use "trunk" again?04:52
pooliewell04:52
pooliewhat is this branch supposed to be?04:52
meoblast001it's too late now, i already have 2 commits with the non-trunk name on one of my projects04:52
pooliethe idea of recording the branch nick is to give you a reminder of the context in which the commit was made04:52
meoblast001you can't uncommit and recommit more than 1 commit cleanly04:52
poolieaside from that it doesn't matter04:52
poolieit's only informative04:52
poolieso personally i wouldn't bother rebasing if it was slightly wrong04:53
meoblast001it was just the sole branch for these projects04:53
poolieso... these commits that were on the non-trunk branch, what name did they get?04:53
meoblast001citrine for citrine/04:53
meoblast001nitrobot-plugins for nitrobot-plugins/04:53
poolieand you wanted them to both be 'trunk' because they're the trunk of those respective projects?04:54
meoblast001no, i wanted them to both be 'trunk' because that's what it's always been04:55
meoblast001and i have no logical reason for why it changed it04:55
meoblast001what's going to stop another machine from renaming it back to trunk?04:55
pooliecould it be that previously you had the branch in citrine/trunk and now it's just in 'citrine'?04:57
meoblast001never had a directory named trunk/04:57
meoblast001not even on my server04:57
pooliehm04:58
pooliethat's a real puzzle then04:59
pooliebzr should only use a name that you explicitly give it or that comes from the directory name04:59
pooliei think you can feel safe that it won't just randomly change04:59
meoblast001poolie: hm, thing is, the server always recognized it as the directory name04:59
pooliehow do you mean 'recognized it'?05:00
meoblast001i wrote a hook that passes information from Bazaar to my IRC bot to print05:00
poolieah using branch.get_nick()05:00
meoblast001it passes the branch name, the committer, the commit number, and the commit message05:00
meoblast001result.branch.nick05:00
meoblast001poolie: should i just accept the new change and only consider it a problem if something tries to change it back?05:03
meoblast001poolie: you did say using the directory name is the default behavior, right?05:06
pooliei think you should just accept it; and yes05:06
meoblast001ok05:06
meoblast001poolie: thanks05:16

wgrantbzr: ERROR: bzrlib.errors.InvalidEntryName: Invalid entry name: '\09:41
wgrantIs there any way to solve that when branching from a git repo with bzr-git?09:42
james_wwgrant: not currently I believe09:44
wgrantDamn.09:44

Peng_Loggerhead has segfaulted twice since I upgraded bzr from r5120 to 5193. This can't be good.14:55
fullermdIt doesn't like odd numbers.14:55
=== blueyed_ is now known as blueyed
Peng_Ugh, that's what I get for only pulling it once a month: a huge regression range.15:14
Peng_Wait a minute. None of the C bits have even changed!15:15
* Peng_ bangs head on wall15:16
fullermdObviously, then, the change must be in the unCeen!15:18
parthmhello, i am looking at hydrazine, capture-bug-counts. so for the first time, whats a good default for launchpad access on the auth page? "change anything"?15:35
parthmnevermind. I went with "read only". worked well :)15:52
cbzjelmer: does pushing bzr renames into subversion track them as subversion renames?19:02
=== radoe_ is now known as radoe
jelmercbz: svn doesn't support renames, but it will do a copy + delete20:20
mhall119hi, how do I get a log with gpg signature info?20:22
jelmermhall119: as far as I know we don't have a way to do that yet. bzr-gtk can display gpg information though20:22
mhall119hmmm, I need to send it to a professor20:23
mhall119and I doubt he'll be willing to learn enough bzr to find it from the repo himself20:24
mhall119also, bzr viz shows that it's signed, but can't find a key to verify with20:24
mhall119I signed it using my personal private key20:25
mhall119why wouldn't it be able to use my personal public key?20:25
