gour | we're considering to adopt bzr instead of hg, but like bitbucket's free repos (although we don't need much space) and considering that, afaik, bzr-git is more mature than bzr-hg, we wonder what would we miss of bzr's metadata if using bzr-bzr-git @bitbucket? | 07:29 |

jelmer | gour: hi | 10:32 |
gour | jelmer: hiya | 10:32 |
jelmer | gour: bzr-git pushing into git is still experimental fwiw, there are some known corner case bugs | 10:32 |
jelmer | gour: you'd miss text revision information (used during merge), support for ghosts (data referenced but missing), multiple author support, support for revision properties (--fixes, etc) | 10:33 |
gour | jelmer: hmm...this is expensive | 10:34 |
gour | i think about adopting bzr considering it's even simpler/safer for potential contributors than hg (we don't consider git)...another option might be fossil... | 10:35 |
gour | jelmer: any estimation when bzr-git might be good-enough (if nto already) for collaboration with git projects? | 10:36 |
gour | i also wonder how does bzr-git compare with hg-git? does it offer better collaboration tool with git projects? | 10:39 |
jelmer | gour: I'm not sure; nobody is actively fixing those issues in bzr-git at the moment. | 10:41 |
gour | jelmer: you're the only developer? | 10:41 |
jelmer | gour: These days I'm just using git itself for projects that I work on that are in git. | 10:42 |
gour | jelmer: ahh, i see...i consider life is too short to think about git :-) | 10:44 |
jelmer | gour: I'm not sure how it compares to hg-git; the way in which hg-git hooks into mercurial seems a lot more hackish, but it might work a lot better in practice. | 10:44 |
jelmer | bzr-git's support for importing from git repositories works really well btw, it's mostly pushing from bzr into git for which there are some known issues | 10:45 |
gour | what is the future of bzr-hg then? even less bright? | 10:48 |
gour | ..in any case, it seems it's better to stick (if we decide so) to use bzr & LP despite LP's lack pf private repos and use hg/bitbucket when we need it...LP's bugtracker is, imho, much better than bb/github | 10:50 |
gour | pipeline is bzr's 'equivalent' for hg's MQ? | 10:51 |
jelmer | gour: I'm doing occasional bug fixing to bzr-git; I haven't used or contributed to bzr-hg in a long time, also because none of the projects I'm involved in use it anymore. | 10:56 |
=== jelmer changed the topic of #bzr to: Bazaar version control <http://bazaar.canonical.com> | try https://answers.launchpad.net/bzr for more help | http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | ||
jelmer | gour: bzr-pipeline and bzr-loom are equivalents to MQ I think (have never used MQ) | 10:57 |
gour | jelmer: ok. thank you | 10:58 |
gour | i believe bzr-git & bzr-hg could be useful in general as a mean to stay with bzr & work with git & hg projects isntead of always switching between different VCS-es | 10:59 |
gour | otoh, it's shocking to see that github is populated with so many projects... | 11:00 |
jelmer | gour: sure, I agree that's why they're useful as well; and one of the reasons I work on bzr-git | 11:00 |
jelmer | gour: there's just 24 hours in a day though ;) | 11:00 |
gour | jelmer: you're not workin for canonical? | 11:01 |
jelmer | gour: I am, but most of my contributions to bzr-git and bzr-hg I did before I joined | 11:04 |
gour | jelmer: well, i like to hear that...it means there is future for bzr ;) | 11:05 |
gour | congrats; btw ;) | 11:05 |
evillyEvil | I accidentally pushed my branch to a wrong location (that is, suppose it should be pushed to A, but I pushed it to B). Is there anyway to remove the change from B? | 18:00 |
lifeless | evillyEvil: bzr uncommit B | 18:25 |
evillyEvil | lifeless: That will revert the latest changes in B? | 18:26 |
evillyEvil | What if I've added multiple revisions before accidentally pushing the branch to B? How do I specifically say what revisions I want uncommit? | 18:27 |
lifeless | you can pass -r -2, for instance | 18:28 |
lifeless | or just run it multiple times | 18:28 |
evillyEvil | I see. Thanks for the tip | 18:39 |
gour | i'm looking to return back from hg to bzr and wonder whether looms or pipeline is closer to hg's MQ? | 19:45 |
lifeless | pipeline | 19:48 |
lifeless | loom versions the queue, and its evolution, which is substantial added complexity, something MQ doesn't do. | 19:48 |
gour | thanks...let me read about it | 19:53 |
