| solancer | hi guys | 10:55 |
| solancer | how can I fork a PPA from launchpad and upload it to my personal Archive ? | 10:55 |
| mgrandi | uhh | 10:57 |
| mgrandi | bzr clone lp:whatever | 10:57 |
| mgrandi | bzr push somewhere | 10:57 |
| solancer | oops i did this instead | 10:59 |
| solancer | bzr branch lp:unity | 10:59 |
| solancer | it grabbed all the folders and stuff | 11:00 |
| solancer | but I need to change the name as well | 11:00 |
| mgz | same thing. | 11:00 |
| solancer | so if I've understood correctly | 11:00 |
| solancer | I've cloned the unity repository | 11:00 |
| solancer | and now its ready for me make changes and push to my personal PPA | 11:01 |
| mgrandi | RoR isn't having a good week | 11:01 |
| solancer | what does upstream merge mean ? | 11:02 |
| solancer | I've seen that on unity-revamped PPA | 11:02 |
| mgz | solancer: what you want to do requires a reasonable understanding of development and debian packaging, you probably want to start with just getting a change done locally and working for you | 11:04 |
| solancer | mgz, so what do i need to learn first | 11:06 |
| solancer | I've used git in the past for creating repos on github | 11:07 |
| mgz | solancer: well, you have a local copy of unity, I'd start by changing that and getting it working for you, ask in #ubuntu what channel unity devs hang out it | 11:09 |
| solancer | mgz, cool | 11:09 |
| mgz | they should then be able to give you hints about what recipes they use for their ppa and such like | 11:09 |
| solancer | mgz, but I don't want to install it on my local machine that would break packages | 11:10 |
| solancer | mgz, but I can install it on my V-box machines | 11:10 |
| solancer | anyway I can build deb file and install it on the v-box machine | 11:11 |
| solancer | #unity | 11:11 |

| gmarkall | if i cherrypick a couple of revisions from a branch, with the intention of later merging that picked-from branch into the current branch, am I likely to encounter any problems in the future? Or is this a relatively safe thing to do? | 13:56 |
| mgz | it's reasonably safe. | 13:57 |
| gmarkall | many thanks | 13:57 |

| mgz | not great as a core part of your workflow though, as it's nice to keep the revision details for the first time code is merged, and avoid potential conflict pain | 13:58 |
| mgz | but for ocassional things, it mostly works fine because bzr can genreally figure out (or give you a reasonable conflict) if a diff gets applied twice | 14:00 |
| gmarkall | i need to get a critical fix that's just been applied to the branch i'm picking from, but i don't have time to merge the whole branch right now - there's been some big changes in the picked-from branch since i last merged. is cherrypick the way to go in this situation? | 14:00 |
| mgz | right, that exactly the kind of situation where it's the right thing to do | 14:01 |
| gmarkall | ah, great - thanks :-) | 14:02 |

| Sonti | hi guys I have a quick question about bazaar. I want to use it locally and I'm not too sure about what to select in location when initialising. Do I set it inside the folder where my project is or do I set it up somewhere else (e.g c:\) and then add the project folder? | 20:08 |
| LarstiQ | Sonti: the former | 20:11 |
| LarstiQ | Sonti: so in commandline parlance, `cd project; bzr init` | 20:12 |
| Sonti | ok thanks. My concern is that I have multiple projects under one folder ie MyProjects. Should I set it in there or MyProjects\projectxxx. I like the idea of having one version control for all of them at once in case I go back to one of my old prototypes but I'm just not sure if I should do it individually for each project folder instead. | 20:13 |
| LarstiQ | Sonti: well, you can do it in various ways of course. I'd recommend doing it per project though. | 20:14 |
| LarstiQ | Sonti: operations are tree wide | 20:15 |
| LarstiQ | Sonti: you can try it out, and if you don't like it do it differently | 20:16 |
| Sonti | LarstiQ thanks. I guess it would be neater per project. I'll do that. | 20:16 |
