[02:57] <thewrath> how can i change the owner of a branch from a user to a team?
[03:04] <thewrath> nevermind i found it
[03:11] <thewrath> if anyone is there i have a few quetions
[03:14] <wgrant> thewrath: Hi.
[05:41] <jose> wgrant: thank you for handling the ticket
[11:38] <gijzelaar> I’m working on automating our github release process and uploading to our PPA. I’ve written down our steps here: http://tinyurl.com/ohvdn88 . I was curious if other people have done similar work before I reinvent the wheel.
[20:05] <edakiri> Now there is both Staging and QAStaging. What is the difference?
[20:14] <cjwatson> staging and qastaging have both existed for years, so I don't know why you say "now"
[20:16] <cjwatson> https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/154401
[20:16] <cjwatson> oh they left
[22:22] <marcoceppi> okay, I'm seeing something weird in LP
[22:22] <marcoceppi> need some help figuring it out
[22:22] <marcoceppi> https://code.launchpad.net/charms/precise/+source/assaultcube there's these code branches, and there's lp:charms/assaultcube which is owned by ~charmers
[22:23] <marcoceppi> However, at the bottom it says it's registered by Robert Ayres
[22:23] <marcoceppi> and I can't delete the branch because of some stacking error
[22:28] <wgrant> marcoceppi: What's the actual problem? What are you trying to do?
[22:29] <marcoceppi> wgrant: the issue is users are getting permission errors when trying to create merge proposals to it, and I can't delete that branch
[22:29] <marcoceppi> those are my two problems at the momen
[22:30] <wgrant> That sounds like one problem (the permission errors), with a potential solution that doesn't work.
[22:30] <marcoceppi> wgrant: yes
[22:30] <wgrant> What are the specific steps to reproduce the permission error?
[22:31] <marcoceppi> wgrant: jose is trying to merge jose is trying to merge https://code.launchpad.net/~jose/charms/precise/assaultcube/1297529-fix in to the branch, I watched him via screencast click on his branch, click propose for merging, enter a description,  commit message, hit propose and get the warning popup
[22:31] <marcoceppi> jose: can you copy and paste that message ^?
[22:31] <jose> sure, give me one second
[22:32] <jose> marcoceppi: oh, it's... fixed
[22:32] <marcoceppi> the fact that we can't delete the branch (as a ~charmer) worries me as well
[22:33] <marcoceppi> jose: wat
[22:33] <jose> https://code.launchpad.net/~jose/charms/precise/assaultcube/1297529-fix/+merge/212741
[22:33] <jose> this is SO weird
[22:34] <wgrant> marcoceppi: The deletion thing is not a permission problem. It's because other branches are stacked on it -- that is, they refer to its data so they are quicker to push and smaller.
[22:34] <wgrant> For that reason you wouldn't delete a branch that had been a trunk.
[22:35] <wgrant> You might unset it as the trunk, rename it, and set it to Abandoned.
[22:35] <wgrant> But deletion is dangerous and forbidden until the branches stacked on it are unstacked.
[22:35] <marcoceppi> wgrant: interesting
[22:37] <marcoceppi> wgrant: I know another user was getting permission errors earlier, these seem transient now
[22:39] <wgrant> Let me know if it happens again.
[22:39] <marcoceppi> wgrant: will do
[23:48] <Patrickdk> is package uploading broken?
[23:48] <Patrickdk> uploading stuff, but not getting any email notifications
