| dominic1134 | hi, we would like to convert our project repo from bzr to git (beta). two questions - is ppa building still possible with git? is there any easy way to perform the conversion from bzr to git without loosing commits and assigned bug reports? thanks | 11:54 |
| dominic1134 | ps: our goal is to sync the future git repo und launchpad with github, due we expect to receive more contributions to the codebase on github, but the main repo will still be on launchpad | 11:55 |
| cjwatson | dominic1134: I think you probably mean recipe building, which still works with git, yes (https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds). There are plenty of repository conversion tools which can do a pretty good job of converting the history (I like reposurgeon myself), but at the moment there's no way to preserve bug links. | 12:00 |
| cjwatson | That's one of the things blocking Launchpad itself from converting to git. | 12:01 |
| dominic1134 | cjwatson, thanks for the hints and tips | 12:02 |
| dominic1134 | but there no plans to move from bzr to git by default in launchpad, right? | 12:03 |
| cjwatson | dominic1134: What would that mean? You have to make a choice to push one or the other. | 12:03 |
| dominic1134 | im asking because bitbucket basically also moved to git | 12:03 |
| cjwatson | Right, but I'm asking what you're asking. :-) | 12:04 |
| cjwatson | Do you just mean stuff like the general guidance given on the site for pushing code? | 12:06 |
| dominic1134 | yes | 12:07 |
| cjwatson | This isn't an official project statement or anything, but it would not surprise me if we gradually emphasised git over bzr as time goes on. | 12:07 |
| cjwatson | One of the prerequisites for doing that more is to finish off some of the remaining gaps in support, though. | 12:08 |
| dominic1134 | ok, sounds good :-) personally i would greatly welcome that step | 12:09 |
| dominic1134 | even if many things are equally in bzr and git, the available integration possibilities for git are way better | 12:10 |
| cjwatson | git is quite a bit easier for us to host for various reasons. | 12:11 |
| Laney | is it intentional that there's only .xz translations for en? | 13:37 |
| cjwatson | Laney: Ah, maybe that needs a ddtp-translations change. Let me look. | 13:39 |
| Laney | cjwatson: thanks | 13:39 |
| Laney | wgrant: and thanks for fixing the bug :) | 13:39 |
| cjwatson | 151 MiB, sigh | 13:39 |
| cjwatson | I'll have a look *at some point* :-P | 13:40 |
| cjwatson | Laney: actually requires an apt-ddtp-tools change; I'll send it mvo's way | 14:04 |
| cjwatson | Laney: is it a problem or just weird? | 14:04 |
| Laney | cjwatson: I have code in appstream-dep11 which only looks at .xz | 14:07 |
| Laney | Could write some stuff for bz2, but won't bother if it will be fixed soon in the archive | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | right | 14:09 |
| cjwatson | punted to mvo | 14:09 |
