[00:00] <rbalint> cjwatson, not really, but illustrates that people should probably look around and should not just rely on bzr pull
[00:01] <cjwatson> Sure, but it's still polite to give them a hint.
[00:01] <cjwatson> And very easy.
[00:02] <cjwatson> I don't understand why you're resisting it so hard.
[00:02] <cjwatson> There were IIRC zero objections when pitti did that with some previous migrations and I remember finding it actively helpful.
[00:07] <rbalint> cjwatson, i already offered doing that on the team's channel and i see the benefit of it
[00:08] <rbalint> cjwatson, it is just ugly :-), but probably i'll get over it and place similar commits in the migrated repos
[00:09] <rbalint> cjwatson, wgrant: thank you for discussing it
[00:09] <wgrant> It's certainly ugly, but it solves a number of other problems.
[14:56] <smoser> maybe i'm doing something wrong
[14:56] <smoser> http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ZGXwh26sGF/
[14:56] <smoser> it doesn't want to delete a branch that sure seems to exist. but says
[14:57] <smoser> unable to delete 'upstream/lp-1676908-configure_all_nics': remote ref does not exist
[14:57] <cjwatson> rescan the repository - we just had to rescue the git backend from a load spiral
[14:58] <smoser> rescan ? you  mean git fetch ?
[14:58] <cjwatson> No, I mean rescan
[14:58] <cjwatson> https://wiki.canonical.com/InformationInfrastructure/OSA/LPHowTo/RescanBranchesAndRefreshDiffs#Rescanning_Branches
[14:58] <cjwatson> If you look at https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init you'll see that the branch is deleted
[14:59] <smoser> it is gone from https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/ now.
[14:59] <smoser> yeah
[14:59] <cjwatson> Oh in fact it's not on https://code.launchpad.net/cloud-init either
[14:59] <cjwatson> So no need to rescan
[14:59] <smoser> but why after fetch does my local git still think so?
[14:59] <cjwatson> Seems to have caught up
[14:59] <cjwatson> The backend was screwed for a while there
[15:00] <cjwatson> So it may have been catching up with old requests or something
[15:00] <smoser> hm.
[15:00] <cjwatson> Oh, also fetch doesn't prune automatically
[15:00] <smoser> well it doees indeed seem just to be my l ocal that thinks it is alive
[15:00] <cjwatson> git fetch --prune upstream
[15:00] <smoser> oh
[15:00] <smoser> ok
[15:00] <smoser> thank you
[15:00] <smoser> yeah, all better now. thanks cjwatson
[15:00] <cjwatson> np
