wenshanhi guys, I have a local clone of a launchpad repository (not mine) and I have committed a few changes (so the revno has been increased), now if I want to pull in the changes from launchpad, what should I do to keep the history log clean? (something `git pull --rebase' equivalent)02:55
thumpermy question is why you want the history log clean?02:58
thumperI'd go "bzr merge :parent"02:58
thumpersomeone did write a bzr rebase02:59
thumperbut as a whole, most bzr users don't rebase02:59
thumperbut merge instead02:59
wenshanbecause git uses hash string whereas bzr uses cumulative numbers, and it would be confusing (at least for me) to have different revision numbers for the same commits between my clone and the upstream.03:03
wenshanbut anyway, I'd like to follow the bzr convention, will give 'bzr merge :parent' a go, thanks03:04
wenshanthumper: I did `bzr uncommit' to roll back to an older revision, and committed a few changes, then I did `bzr merge :parent', however, it returned "Nothing to do". What does `bzr merge :parent' do?03:37
thumperit depends where :parent is set03:39
thumperit defaults to the branch you branched from03:39
thumperbzr info shows at the end what the parent is03:39
thumperbzr merge <other branch> works too03:39
thumperif you have uncommitted going back to the last revision of the parent branch03:40
thumperyou can just go "bzr pull"03:40
thumperinstead of merge03:40
* thumper hopes jam explains some here03:40
wenshanthumper: thanks03:47

mgzjam, jelmer: did either of you have a bash thingy for displaying the name of the current native colo branch in the prompt?14:19
jelmermgz: I think somebody did, can't remember who though14:22
mgzwhat's the file you'd poke to get the current active branch name?14:22
mgzjust .bzr/branch/location plus some processing I guess14:23
jelmerparse .bzr/branch/location IIRC14:23
mgzace, thanks jelmer!14:23
jelmermgz: y/w :-)14:24
frusenhi, my friend uses bzr on windows but gets this error: File "paramiko\transport.pyo", line 1633, in _check_banner SSHException: Error reading SSH protocol banner17:20
frusen2.5.1 standalone version17:20
frusenwe are working on the same bzr repository and everything works for me (on gnu/linux) so i figure it's not the servers fault17:21
frusenanyone have any experience with this error?17:21
frusenversion 2.4.2 fixed it17:30
