[00:02] <jelmer> vexo: sure, but you can merge a single directory from a branch
[00:03] <jelmer> (you'll get the full history from the branch but just the directory you specified)
[00:09] <vexo> Mmmm, I just tested it, and when merging just a subdirectory (bzr merge other/dir -r0..-1), you don't get the history
[00:12] <jelmer> vexo: hmm, I wonder if that is a recent change in behaviour
[00:13] <jelmer> vexo: the other alternative is to merge the full branch and then remove the files you're not interested in
[00:15] <vexo> Well, yes, that'd obviously always work ;)
[00:18] <vexo> That could potentially be a large amount of overhead, though, so not necessarily ideal if you really only wanted just the one folder
[01:12] <rozzin> Such concern about subdirectories. svn really broke people ;)

[14:06] <ok259> Ah, I'm so stupid. --lossy is what I need. My apologies.
[21:16] <janos> hi jelmer, you around?
[21:45] <janos> jelmer: I just wanted to say thanks for the tweet last week, I appreciate the support
[21:56] <jelmer> janos: no problem :-)
[21:56] <janos> jelmer, another thing, the publisher is looking for technical reviewers
[21:57] <janos> do you know anyone who might be interested? (yourself included!)
[22:03] <jelmer> janos: sure, I would be happy to do some reviewing - perhaps a chapter or two
[22:03] <jelmer> janos: some of the other core committers might also be good candidates
[22:07] <janos> jelmer, great! I'll look them up
