| vila | poolie: hey | 08:59 |
| poolie | hi there | 09:00 |
| poolie | iirc we're going to a have a standup call now? | 09:00 |
| spiv | poolie: yes | 09:01 |
| jam | hi poolie, what method? | 09:02 |
| * spiv is on mumble | 09:03 | |
| poolie | mumble? | 09:03 |
| poolie | it apparently wants to be reinitialized for natty | 09:04 |
| jam | apparently we upset vila | 09:04 |
| poolie | :) | 09:04 |
| vila | poolie, jam, jelmer, spiv : Gee, I lack caffeine: lp says 2011-*05*-12 and that's right unless someone insists about releasing 2.1.4 sooner, next month seems fine as far as SRUs are concerned | 09:19 |
| poolie | hi jelmer? | 09:21 |
| jam | vila: not a whole lot of stuff in the 2.1 series that I can see *needs* release | 09:21 |
| jam | Though it is nice if we are going to do a backport to actually get it out to users. | 09:22 |
| vila | jam: sure, but what we want is to get 2.1 updated for lucid which is LTS, so it's more about having the SRUs running (and we need to SRU 2.2 *before* 2.1 AIUI) | 09:22 |
| poolie | still here? | 09:22 |
| jelmer | FFS | 09:22 |
| poolie | jelmer, that's nice | 09:22 |
| jam | jelmer: want to finish up in IRC | 09:22 |
| jam | we'll just talk about you behind your back | 09:22 |
| jelmer | yeah, that might be better, my mumble seems unreliable today | 09:22 |
| poolie | jelmer, you should send a mail about that great result | 09:22 |
| jelmer | jam: >-) | 09:22 |
| vila | jelmer: don't worry, I had to *reboot* myself ;) | 09:23 |
| jelmer | This week I'd like to work on finishing the bzr-svn/bzr-hg/bzr-git releases and getting them and a newer bzr deployed on LP | 09:23 |
| vila | \o/ | 09:23 |
| jelmer | as well as getting the transport-segments patch finished | 09:23 |
| poolie | that sounds good | 09:24 |
| poolie | spiv's talking about getting the twisted failure patch and workaround done | 09:24 |
| poolie | i'll send minutes too | 09:24 |
| poolie | we could try using canonical asterisk conferencing next time | 09:25 |
| poolie | or skype | 09:25 |
| poolie | spiv: and the patch to upstream twisted? | 09:25 |
| poolie | oh, just briefly | 09:26 |
| poolie | because the kanban is working well i was thinking about changing what we do with bugs | 09:26 |
| poolie | specifically actually using fix committed/fix released to remind us to make a release | 09:26 |
| vila | meh, for bzr itself you mean ? | 09:27 |
| poolie | yes | 09:27 |
| vila | We stopped using fix committed to ease the RM work IIRC | 09:27 |
| jam | vila: and to avoid the "100 bug spam updates when a release is made" | 09:28 |
| vila | and I thought Fix committed was going to be deprecated anyway | 09:28 |
| vila | jam: hmm, yeah, *I* wouldn't mind that if I wasn't the RM as a reminder of which fixes are about to be released | 09:29 |
| jelmer | it should be possible to do a trivial script that marks all bugs for a milestone as fix released | 09:30 |
| vila | arf arf, headset delivered *just* after the online meeting, the irony :) | 09:31 |
| jelmer | vila: :) | 09:31 |
| vila | jelmer: right, truth is I'm mainly using the milestone pages to see which bugs are fixed by which release and that will still work if we use Fix Committed so I'm not violently *against* using it (I always liked the distinction between committed and released myself though I used it to distinguish between: there are a fix in *a* branch and the fix has landed in the official branch) | 09:38 |
| vila | but anyway, worth discussing on the list as poolie proposed | 09:39 |

| poolie | o/ spiv | 11:54 |
| jam | poolie: does feed-pqm notice that Branch A is approved but its prerequisite B is not? | 11:58 |
| poolie | no | 11:59 |
| jam | poolie: I thought so, but just checking | 11:59 |
| poolie | what do you think it should do? | 12:00 |
| poolie | arguably lp should warn you about this | 12:00 |
| jam | poolie: warn/not show it as submittable/ something | 12:01 |
| poolie | yes | 12:02 |
| jam | I'm reviewing Jelmer's stack, and the first I need to discuss a bit more, most of the follow ups are obviously ok | 12:02 |
| jam | but I don't want to mark them Approved, since it would want to be submitted | 12:02 |
| jam | poolie: speaking of which, I think you have 3-4 "approved but not landed" branches. | 12:02 |
| jelmer | jam: hi | 12:03 |
| jam | hey jelmer | 12:04 |
| jam | jelmer: questions are in https://code.launchpad.net/~jelmer/bzr/knitpackrepo/+merge/56383 | 12:04 |
| poolie | it is not all that great at showing the whole stack | 12:05 |
| jam | poolie: I realize it is a little bit tricky, since prerequisite branches are off-to-the-side, since you don't set a prerequisite merge-proposal | 12:06 |
| jam | which is where the "is this merged" is generally tracked | 12:06 |
| askhl_ | Hi. I have a bzr repository with multiple branches and tags, and would like to transfer this whole structure to a project in Launchpad. How should this be done? | 12:07 |
| jelmer | jam: ah, thanks | 12:08 |
| askhl_ | (One could conceivable create series for the different tags and manually push each tag/branch as appropriate. Is this the smartest way or is there a better way?) | 12:08 |
| jam | askhl_: generally you would create a new project on launchpad, then push up your primary development branch, mark it as such, then push up the rest | 12:08 |
| askhl_ | conceivably* | 12:08 |
| askhl_ | jam: so the rest of the branches/tags are simply pushed individually? | 12:09 |
| jam | askhl_: I'm not sure what you are doing with tags, but yes | 12:09 |
| jam | for the branches | 12:09 |
| askhl_ | jam: the tags correspond to stable versions. I guess they're sort of like series | 12:09 |
| askhl_ | jam: thanks for the help | 12:10 |
| jam | askhl_: what are the branches then? My guess is you would just have a series branch that happens to have the individual release tags on it. | 12:12 |
| jam | I don't know if you need separate branches for each release tag. | 12:12 |
| jam | s/need/need or want/ | 12:12 |

| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 456418 in Launchpad itself "merge proposal status info should reflect status of prerequisite branch" [Medium,Triaged] | 12:15 |
| askhl_ | Say, we have this repository. And we would like to push the branches in this repository to LP. But when attempting to do so, it complains that "location is a repository". Apparently the subdirectories are not quite branches that can be pushed. How do we proceed? | 12:26 |
| spiv | askhl_: push the branches, not the repository. | 12:26 |
| * spiv -> dinner | 12:26 | |
| askhl_ | spiv: I'm in one of them (trunk) and running bzr push lp:<project>. That's when it complains | 12:27 |
| askhl_ | Strange. The trunk is actually not reported to be a branch by bzr info, while the other branches are. Maybe this is an error in svn2bzr (which has been used)? | 12:28 |
| askhl_ | But we need trunk to be a branch (including revision history)... | 12:29 |
| vila | askhl_: directory has not the same meaning in bzr and svn, in bzr it's just a revision store, bzr deals with branches mainly | 12:33 |
| vila | askhl_: a branch can have multiple tags, each one associated with a specific revision | 12:33 |
| vila | askhl_: launchpad hosts only branches with some of them having aliases for convenience | 12:34 |
| vila | lp:bzr is a shortcut for the dev focus branch which is lp:~bzr-pqm/bzr/bzr.dev | 12:35 |
| vila | for project branches, the url syntax is lp:~<user>/<project>/<branch> | 12:36 |
| askhl_ | vila: thanks | 12:36 |
| vila | so, if 'bzr push lp:<project>' fails, that's possibly because the dev focus is not correctly defined for <project> | 12:37 |
| askhl_ | So right now the problem is that svn2bzr converted the trunk branch of svn to something which is not a branch in the bzr sense. So we need to make a branch out of it (including entire revision history) and push it to LP. | 12:37 |
| askhl_ | We managed to push one of the non-trunk svn tags (technically a branch) successfully, it's just that trunk itself is not a branch for some reason | 12:37 |
| vila | askhl_: well, you need a branch to start with, I'm pretty surprised that svn2bzr produced something that isn't one | 12:38 |
| vila | askhl_: if you do 'bzr info' in any directory, it should tell you what it thinks the directory contains | 12:38 |
| vila | askhl_: pastebin'ing the result may ease the dialog ;) | 12:39 |
| askhl_ | vila: right, bzr info reports that it is a 'shared repository', whereas for the other branches it reports two lines, one stating that it is a shared repository (or part thereof), the other stating that it is a branch | 12:39 |
| vila | right, so a shared repository is a repository used my multiple branches (a repository can also be private to a branch) | 12:40 |
| fullermd | A 'branches' run may be helpful. | 12:40 |
| vila | so you did the first 'bzr info' at the repository level, the branches should be down the hierarchy starting there | 12:40 |
| vila | ha, of course, fullermd to the rescue ;) | 12:41 |
| vila | askhl_: try 'bzr branches' ^ | 12:41 |
| fullermd | From the 'top level' of your conversion. | 12:41 |
| askhl_ | Oh, there's the problem: svn2bzr has converted all the *subdirectories* of trunk into different branches | 12:42 |
| fullermd | jelmer: I haven't read your email yet, but just from the subject line I'm totally in favor of whatever it contains :p | 12:42 |
| vila | askhl_: 'branches' is part of the bzrtools plugin (in case you got an Unknown command error) | 12:42 |
| askhl_ | as revealed by svn branches | 12:43 |
| askhl_ | That explains it then | 12:43 |
| askhl_ | Thank you, vila and fullermd | 12:44 |
| * fullermd goes back to lurking until vila almost solves the next problem, then jumps in to take the credit 8-} | 12:45 | |
| vila | fullermd: for once I didn't start with http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/MatthewFuller/SpotDocs/PiecesInBrief which may have been an error ;) | 12:46 |
| vila | askhl_: I'm not that familiar with svn myself, but from the various discussions here, people use bzr-svn more than svn2bzr, you may want to have a look at it | 12:48 |
| === hunger_ is now known as hunger | ||
| fullermd | I should blow an afternoon sometime trying to see if bzr-svn can be sweet-talked into running over the BSD src repo, but I have a feeling I'd spend hours just trying to tell it the repo structure. | 12:49 |
| fullermd | Then more hours and several times my RAM waiting for it to figure out what to do... | 12:49 |
| vila | askhl_: also, launchpad can import from svn so you may wan to look there too, maybe it can do the work for you ;) | 12:50 |
| askhl_ | vila: it seems that bzr-svn is useful for using bzr as a frontend to svn repos, whereas we are converting an svn repo to bzr permanently. I think we'll figure it out now with bzr2svn, so things should be fine! (until we get more questions of course .)) | 12:50 |
| jelmer | askhl_: bzr-svn has a "bzr svn-import" command that has behaviour similar to svn2bzr | 12:50 |

| fullermd | vila: ports is still CVS. The master for src is in svn. | 12:53 |
| jelmer | jam: whoa, 77 entries in your sys.path? | 12:53 |
| fullermd | I think about trying ports again sometimes too, but I sober up real quick :p | 12:53 |
| vila | :) | 12:53 |
| jelmer | jam: I heard people complain about a single additional entry in sys.path on Ubuntu | 12:53 |
| jam | jelmer: easy_install defaults to putting every installed software into a custom location | 12:54 |
| jam | so that you can have 2.4 and 2.5 installed, but pick which one is active | 12:54 |
| jam | however, Launchpadlib has *huge* dependencies | 12:54 |
| jam | (well, a very large dependency stack) | 12:55 |
| jam | which I don't want to manually install, but obviously has some severe negatives w/ easy_install | 12:55 |
| jelmer | jam: hey, it's nothing compared to Launchpad's dependency stack :-P | 12:55 |
| jam | jelmer: sure, but you can't easy_install Launchpad on Windows, either | 12:55 |

| maxb | You can use Bazaar using sftp://host/path/to/dir URLs without having bzr installed remotely, though the performance will not be as good as bzr+ssh | 20:31 |
| philsf | what's the polite way to transfer the whole branch, instead of rsyncing the whole thing? | 20:34 |
| maxb | bzr push remote-url-where-you-want-it | 20:37 |
| philsf | forgive my ignorance, what's the difference? | 20:39 |
| * jelmer waves | 20:40 | |
| maxb | Not a great deal, but: 1) pushing doesn't create a working tree on the server, and 2) your local branch remembers where you pushed it to for convenience when you want to push updates | 20:40 |

| philsf | thanks, bye | 21:04 |
| AfC | How hard would it be to have Bazaar insert a \n instead of clearing the terminal line when it's printing status messages? | 23:33 |
| === psynaptic|away is now known as psynaptic | ||
| jelmer | AfC: with status messages, do you mean progress indication messages? | 23:34 |
| AfC | jelmer: yes? | 23:34 |
| AfC | The stuff that spews out on teminal for 10ms then gets erased whenever you do anything | 23:35 |
| === psynaptic is now known as psynaptic|away | ||
| AfC | jelmer: [are those "progress indication messages"?] | 23:36 |
| jelmer | I'm not sure which messages you mean, I haven't seen any messages from bzr get erased when I type stuff. | 23:37 |
| jelmer | AfC: can you give an example of the contents of one of those messages? | 23:37 |
| AfC | jelmer: "...Inserting stream..." | 23:37 |
| jelmer | ah, those are indeed the progress indication messages | 23:38 |
| jelmer | adding a newline there will mean *a lot* of output though | 23:38 |
| jelmer | it's not a generic status message, it just tells you what bzr is working on; if something completes quickly enough it's not shown | 23:39 |
| AfC | I'd obviously want to nuance it that things that are just updating the 0/100 wouldn't trigger the \n, just a changed message | 23:39 |
| jelmer | AfC: I think you're just asking for more high-level output on what's actually been completed? | 23:40 |
| AfC | jelmer: I want to evaluate (subjectively) the impact of seeing more output from bzr when running things. We all know git "seems" faster, and I want to see whether that has to do with it looking like it's "doing more" per unit time / per unit message | 23:40 |
| AfC | jelmer: [but as an aside, having no idea what any of Bazaar's messages actually are makes it harder for all of us user types to communicate with the bzr hackers about "why it is doing ____"] | 23:41 |
| AfC | jelmer: [so I'd like to start seeing 'em] | 23:41 |
| jelmer | AfC: the related code is in bzrlib/uyi/text.py, see show_progress() | 23:42 |
| jelmer | s/uyi/ui/ | 23:42 |
| AfC | Eeeek! | 23:43 |
| AfC | http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/ is permanently redirected to http+urllib://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr-pqm/bzr/bzr.dev/ | 23:44 |
| AfC | bzr: ERROR: Cannot lock LockDir(http+urllib://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr-pqm/bzr/bzr.dev/.bzr/branch/lock): Transport operation not possible: http does not support mkdir() | 23:44 |
| AfC | what the heck/ | 23:44 |
| AfC | from | 23:44 |
| AfC | $ bzr pull | 23:44 |
| AfC | oh... it's a format 1.14 branch. Is bzr.dev 2a yet? | 23:44 |
| AfC | still, that's some error message | 23:44 |
| jelmer | yeah, I'm pretty sure bzr.dev is 2a | 23:45 |
| jelmer | AfC: is this a checkout perhaps? | 23:45 |
| AfC | jelmer: yeah, I assume so | 23:45 |
| AfC | jelmer: I always do "read-only" checkouts (mirrors?) of upstream. | 23:45 |
| AfC | Shouldn't I? | 23:45 |
| jelmer | AfC: you can, but you should in that case use "bzr up" to update | 23:46 |
| jelmer | AfC: you were trying to pull new changes into your local branch and its master branch, to which you have no write access | 23:46 |
| jelmer | (the error message about the master branch being readonly is more than weird, I admit) | 23:46 |
| AfC | jelmer: update vs pull sometimes being one thing and sometimes being another is probably THE thing I hate the most about bzr, :( | 23:46 |
| AfC | In a branch, regardless of what type it is, it should be pull, or update. They shouldn't be the same sometimes. | 23:47 |
| jelmer | AfC: hopefully it's something that will be addressed in the 3.0 UI revamp | 23:47 |
| AfC | I hope we can clean this up in 3.0 | 23:47 |
| AfC | jelmer: tag you're it | 23:47 |
| jelmer | AfC: well, technically they are different things.. but I won't go there, I get your point. | 23:47 |
| AfC | jelmer: I know they're different things. That's why I'd rather they be 2 commands that you have to do | 23:48 |
| AfC | jelmer: the whole thing is founded in the idea that "people shouldn't have to do two steps" but look at the confusion that resulted. | 23:48 |
| AfC | jelmer: if pull and update are different and have side effects, then they're different. | 23:49 |
| AfC | {shrug} | 23:49 |
| AfC | Meanwhile, starting again, | 23:50 |
| AfC | $ bzr branch http+urllib://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr-pqm/bzr/bzr.dev/ | 23:50 |
| AfC | can't give me an estimate of total size to be transfered? :( | 23:50 |
