mark06does bzr store timezone identifiers as branch metadata? for example the commit dates have a numeric indicator such as -0300 or -0200, but I wanted to know if it was ever possible knowing "from where" the commit was made, e.g. from Japan or South Africa01:35
mark06this is because bzr does not work with msys, due to msys not implementing timezone support properly01:36
mark06this causes for the commit dates indication wrong numeric timezones, and if it was possible to know the commit location, then a third-party library could be used to check if the numeric timezone indicators are actually correct01:38
spivmark06: IIRC probably just the UTC offset, but it's been a quite while since I looked…01:44
spivSo I could very easily be wrong.01:44
fullermdI'd be pretty sure.  It's the rightest (or at least least wrong) thing to do.01:45
fullermd'm pretty sure there's nothing at the _branch_ level about it one way or the other anyway; it'd all be in the commits.01:45
mark06yeah it actually wouldn't make much sense not being in each commit, since every commit could have been done from a different location01:46
fullermdLike those nuts committing stuff while they fly across the Intl Date Line.01:47
mark06like merging contributions from whatever in the globe02:00
fullermdThat's way less interesting than my story   :p02:01
fullermdvila: Hithere.  Is that note() you added in r5887.3.1 actually meaningful for anything?  It smells like dev droppings...02:24
mark06thanks all anyway03:41
lifelessfullermd: love the imagery04:58
fullermdI always say, if you can't be useful, at least be visceral   :)05:06
lifelessfullermd: I feel you05:09
vilafullermd: wut ? I can't see any note() added in 5887.3.1. The diff shows an existing note('Nothing to do.') in the neighborhood but bzr doesn't blame me ;)06:44
vilafullermd: 5887.3.1 revid:v.ladeuil+lp@free.fr-20110525204316-j9mjhu9usylbey06 that is, may be you're looking at a different one ?06:48
fullermdOh.  Hm.  I guess not, it's jriddell's fault when he merged it.  Guess I didn't recheck the diff, when I saw it was just a merge of 1 rev.06:57
fullermdnote("merger: " + str(merger))06:57
fullermd(5887.2.6)06:57
fullermd'm thinking that should go06:57
fullermd% bzr merge asdfawr06:57
fullermdmerger: <bzrlib.merge.Merger object at 0x8070c2ed0>06:57
fullermdbzr: ERROR: Path(s) do not exist: asdfawr06:57
fullermdDoesn't really add much  :p06:58
vilafullermd: ha ! ok, let me find that07:41
vilafullermd: hehe, it's even i10n'ed !07:42
vilafullermd: removed in my local trunk, will find its way upstream with the rest of the ~200 uncommitted changes there :-/ when time permits...07:43
fullermdFunny, it sounded like you said "somebody please hack into my system and liberate these changes"   ;>07:47
fullermdYeah, I got a kick out of tracing that back and seeing where somebody had gettext()'d it.07:47
fullermdWhy should English speakers get all the fun, after all?07:48
vilafullermd: hehe, yeah, almost ;)07:51
