| mark06 | is it possible to clone all branches from a project into a single repository? | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| mark06 | for example if you want to mirror your bazaar project into github, you need to keep track of each branch manually | 00:07 |
| jelmer | mark06: bzrtools has a command for that | 00:29 |
| jelmer | mark06: oh, hmm, perhaps it was a separate plugin | 00:30 |
| mark06 | hmm I guess git-bzr-ng will not understand a multi-branch bzr repo anyway | 00:31 |
| jelmer | mark06: I think that's more of a git-bzr-ng than a bzr question | 00:32 |
| mark06 | the use I would make of that is irrelevant | 00:34 |
| mark06 | I still was curious to know if bzr was capable of doing that | 00:34 |
| mark06 | but thanks anyway! | 00:35 |
| jelmer | mark06: if you use colocated branches, cloning a bzr directory somewhere should clone all branches | 00:36 |
| mark06 | I asked because I saw some other extension for git with syntax like git clone bzr::lp:project | 00:36 |
| mark06 | docs saying that it would clone all branches, but the example was actually with bzr:// protocol and not from launchpad | 00:37 |
| mark06 | I tried same url style but got a really weird error on windows | 00:37 |
| mark06 | anyway, next question, is bzr code ready to be compiled under 64-bit? | 00:38 |
| mark06 | I was thinking about building bzr 2.6 for windows, but it needs to compile on both 32 and 64-bit | 00:39 |
| jelmer | mark06: Yeah, it has worked on 64-bit for a long time - for as long as we've been running it on 64-bit Linux machines | 00:39 |
| mark06 | I saw one windows installer/build project somewhere but can't remember, anyone knows this? | 00:39 |
| mark06 | why no 64-bit release then jelmer? | 00:40 |
| jelmer | mark06: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/331342 | 00:40 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 331342 in Bazaar Windows Installers "bzr python-based installer requires 32-bit python on windows; unclear message" [Medium,Confirmed] | 00:40 |
| mark06 | so the fix is as easy as making the installer like 64-bit python? | 00:42 |
| mark06 | what is the installer built with, nsis by any chance? | 00:42 |
| * jelmer doesn't have a clue | 00:43 | |
| mark06 | ok | 00:45 |
| jelmer | (was never involved with the Windows side of things) | 00:45 |
| * mark06 hopes at least 64-bit compiation is not an issue if he ever tries to compile bzr on windows | 00:46 | |
| mark06 | should 2.6 bring reasobable bug fixes and performance on windows as compared to current release 2.5? | 00:48 |
| jelmer | mark06: I'm pretty sure it won't be an issue, bzr itself doesn't have anything problematic wrt 64 bit | 00:48 |
| mark06 | one thing I experience is small display bug with qbzr that I fix by updating the plugin separately.... another issue is that it's really ugly on windows 8... I needed to use compatibility mode | 00:49 |
| jelmer | mark06: I'm sure other people would appreciate it if you made a 64bit build and put it out there :) | 00:50 |
| mark06 | ok I will maybe give it a try if I have time | 00:50 |
| mark06 | thanks all! | 01:16 |
| mark06 | good night | 01:16 |
