| memguy | I am wondering now that i got the general process of most of the different version controls down , and terminology /structure of the repo's....I have a question related to project hosting websites and web based revision control software | 05:17 |
|---|---|---|
| memguy | The question is 1) is behind the scenes when one signs up with things like savannah , sourceforge , launchpad , codeplex, cloudforge , bitbucket , gitorious ,...etc are they all storing the projects in a revision control software behind the scenes like cvs,svn,git.hg, bazzar,..etc | 05:20 |
| memguy | 2) I just recently realized that web based version controls work much in the same way as command line cvs ,svn,..etc. So i am kind of wondering when i reach a website repo how to relate it back to the command line . i.e say i go to cvs web viewer site can i just uses the url i am at as the repo and do a command line cvs -qd whatshouldbehere get -P src | 05:24 |
| memguy | I guess i am trying to just by going to a web repo site finding out right from that how to get it by command line | 05:25 |
| memguy | If i can completely relate the web repo gui buttons in the website itself to cvs command line that would be so awesome but the thing stopping me is figuring out the repo location from the website... without googling my butt off for an alternative repo that i can get from command line | 05:28 |
| vila | memguy: web sites can do whatever they please, they are no rules. Most of the time, some hint about the repo/branch is described on the page, but again, no hard rule there either. | 09:12 |
| vila | s/they are/there are/ | 09:12 |
| memguy | I see github does a good job of providing the git repo like over http or https or just download the folder as a normal file download | 09:15 |
| Demosthenex | i'm using bzr 2.5.1 on an old ubuntu, i have a simple repo in a dir with a bunch of org-mode (text) files. cron job commits hourly if there's any changes. had a computer crash during a commit, had to break a bzr lock. working dir says run update, update says a revision is not found and fails. where to go from here? | 17:00 |
| mgrandi | can you see if the revision its trying to get is actually a commit? | 18:14 |
| mgrandi | as in @Demosthenex is it a recent commit? | 18:27 |
| mgrandi | (brb software upgrade) | 18:28 |
| Demosthenex | i see the long revision string lists a date AFTER the latest commit in the log | 18:49 |
| Demosthenex | or rather what it says is missing | 18:50 |
| Demosthenex | but if i try uncommit, it wants to rollback a commit made yesterday | 18:50 |
| mgrandi | can you checkout just the latest commit | 18:53 |
| mgrandi | that you know you made? | 18:53 |
| Demosthenex | i'll give that a shot when i'm at the machine next | 19:37 |
| memguy | one last thing with revision control current does anybody know what most project managers and code developers like to uses for the repo ? Me personally i imagine 99% of things now adays are either git , cvs ,svn , and maybe hg at least for the opensource / free software community | 19:51 |
| memguy | For the closed source windows, mac, ...etc os they uses there on proprietary RCS some times like TFS ...etc | 19:52 |
| memguy | IBM uses clearcase , cpvc ,...etc | 19:53 |
| mgrandi | perforce, bitkeeper, plastic | 19:53 |
| memguy | Would i be missing any major players in the repo software category | 19:53 |
| mgrandi | fossil (open source) | 19:53 |
| memguy | way but those don't seem used all that much | 19:54 |
| memguy | i am talking about the 99% | 19:54 |
| mgrandi | i guess | 20:07 |
| mgrandi | plastic i know is sorta big | 20:07 |
| mgrandi | and bitkeeper used to host hte linux kernel at one point =P | 20:07 |
| memguy | ya but bitkeeper broke into git and hg | 21:14 |
| mgrandi | it still exists as a product though | 21:14 |
| memguy | ya but i am talking about most of the projects | 21:14 |
| mgrandi | and now apparentloy open source =P https://www.bitkeeper.org/ | 21:14 |
| memguy | repo | 21:14 |
| Demosthenex | memguy: bzr check! =] | 22:12 |
| Demosthenex | and bzr check bugged out. | 22:16 |
| Demosthenex | branch clone, thats ok, replaced original. | 22:19 |
| mgrandi | good to hear =) | 22:37 |
