=== slank is now known as slank_away
[00:45] <JPeterson> is bzr switch -b ther same as git checkout -b?
[00:45] <lifeless> effectively
[00:45] <JPeterson> but git checkout -b is instant, bzr switch -b has so far moved 1 g
[00:48] <JPeterson> it seems to copy the entire source to .bzr\checkout\limbo\new-18
[00:48] <JPeterson> after 3 min it returned
[00:48] <JPeterson> bzr: ERROR: Cannot switch a branch, only a checkout.
[00:52] <JPeterson> this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1645672/local-branches-with-bazaar seems to say branches are not supported
[00:56] <jelmer> JPeterson: it's only supported in bzr 2.6
[00:56] <jelmer> and you'll need to use --force if you're using it in a location that doesnt contain branches already
[00:56] <jelmer> *colocated
[01:18] <lifeless> JPeterson: a shared repository will let switch -b be ~instant.
[01:19] <JPeterson> ah
[08:09] <bacon000> In bzr, is history sacred as in Mercurial, or can it be rewritten as in Git?
[08:10] <bob2> don't think that's a good characterisation
[08:10] <bob2> but bzr-rewrite exists
[08:12] <bacon000> is that a plugin?
[08:13] <lifeless> yes
[08:13] <bob2> git lets you create new history, same as mercurial or bzr
[08:15] <bacon000> I'm coming from the position that history can't be rewritten in Hg without a plugin.  Sounds like bzr has a similar philosophy on this?
[08:17] <bob2> that's a mischaracterisation of hg, but i guess bzr and hg are the same
[08:18] <lifeless> bob2: its the popular understanding.
[08:18] <lifeless> bob2: I think you're being just a little pedantic :)
[08:19] <bob2> heh
[08:20] <lifeless> bacon000: the bzr community treat changing the tip of a public branch to a revision that doesn't include the previous tip as a thing to avoid at nearly-all costs.
[08:20] <lifeless> bacon000: which is I think the key thing you're referring to as being 'history is sacred'
[08:21] <bacon000> yes, i think we're on the same page
[08:26] <bacon000> I don't suppose anyone here is on Windows, are you?  I'm trying to figure out why .bzr.log is stored in my Documents folder.
[08:27] <lifeless> Thats the default, your $HOME
[08:30] <bacon000> I would have thought it would go in \users\bacon000 instead of \users\bacon000\documents.

[14:05] <clyon> Hi! I have some random problems when I try to checkout a branch of GCC or GDB.
[14:05] <clyon> After 20 to 25 minutes, I get: Connection Timeout: disconnecting client after 300.0 seconds
[14:05] <clyon> some other times, it works well.... Any clue?

=== deryck is now known as deryck[lunch]
[18:38] <idnar> so I was thinking of hacking my zsh prompt to show me which branch I'm in when I'm in a bzr-colo workspace
[18:38] <idnar> is there a fast way to determine that, though? running bzr every time a prompt is printed probably doesn't count
