| [00:58] <mr-rus1> how to I checkout an svn branch/trunk using ubuntu bzr? | |
| [00:58] <mr-rus1> bzr-svn doesn't exist and I can't find commands on the website for what to do. | |
| === mr-rus1 is now known as mr-russ | |
| [00:59] <jelmer> mr-russ: ? ubuntu has bzr-svn | |
| [00:59] <mr-russ> I installed bzr-svn package, but there is only a bzr command | |
| [00:59] <jelmer> ah | |
| [00:59] <jelmer> bzr-svn allows the regular bzr command to access svn urls | |
| [01:00] <mr-russ> ah, then I did have it sort of working. | |
| [01:00] <mr-russ> how then do I commit without committing to svn, and only commit to the bzr tree? | |
| [01:01] <jelmer> mr-russ: If you create a standalone branch it won't automatically commit to svn | |
| [01:02] <mr-russ> ah, so you need to pass that as a parameter. | |
| [01:02] <jelmer> ? | |
| [01:02] <mr-russ> Unfortunatley I'm too new at bzr altogether for this to be as easy as it might be. | |
| [01:03] <jelmer> if you create a branch by running "bzr branch svn://..." it won't automatically commit to svn | |
| [01:04] <mr-russ> I'm using https:// I hope that doesn't make a difference. | |
| [01:04] <jelmer> no | |
| [01:04] * mr-russ waits for it to download to see how we go at attempt 2. | |
| [01:09] <mathrick> mr-russ: bzr branch off an SVN repo is the same as a branch off any other repo, it's independent and separate from the original branch | |
| [01:16] <mr-russ> for some reason my first attempt committed to svn. but it doesn't now. | |
| [01:16] <mr-russ> thanks for the help. | |
| [01:16] <mr-russ> I'll now work out how to commit the changes to svn. | |
| [01:17] <james_w> mr-russ: if you are now using the result of "branch" then you only commit locally. Use "bzr push" to move the changes to svn. | |
| [01:18] <james_w> see "bzr help bind" if you wish to make it default to commit to both. | |
| [01:21] <mr-russ> a basic tutorial on the subversion page would be quite helpful. especially for those of us coming from SVN. | |
| [01:21] <mr-russ> because bzr push doesn't automatically put the tree back in the same place you got it from. | |
| [01:21] <james_w> mr-russ: to which subversion page do you refer? | |
| [01:22] <mr-russ> http://bazaar-vcs.org/BzrForeignBranches/Subversion | |
| [01:22] <james_w> and what do you mean by that statement? | |
| [01:23] <mr-russ> coming from svn, when you checkout something. when you hit svn commit, it commits to the same svn tree. | |
| [01:24] <mr-russ> bzr push to an svn tree MAKES you specify the location. | |
| [01:24] <mr-russ> I would have expected it cached as the "default" | |
| [01:25] <mr-russ> But that is just my gut expectation as an SVN user. | |
| [01:30] <jelmer> mr-russ: bzr does do that if you used "bzr co" | |
| [01:30] <jelmer> it doesn't when you use "bzr branch" | |
| [01:30] * mr-russ needs to read more about how to use bzr. | |
| [01:31] <mr-russ> and bzr co commits straight to the SVN repository. | |
| [01:33] <james_w> mr-russ: and after the first bzr push then it will use that location by default next time, so it should be a one time thing. | |
| [01:33] <mr-russ> ah. | |
| [01:34] <mr-russ> I'll read through the whole bzr manual and see how I go from there. | |
| [01:34] <mr-russ> thanks very much for your guidance all. | |
| [01:34] <james_w> mr-russ: no problem, feel free to ask any more questions. | |

| [14:25] <c1|freaky> hi all. how can i checkout a repository without any history or other files, just as if i would have downloaded a package or smth.? | |
| === Verterok is now known as Verterok_ | |
| [14:33] <Parker-> export? | |
| [14:36] <c1|freaky> ok | |
| [14:36] <c1|freaky> thank you | |
| [14:42] <c1|freaky> doesnt work can someone give me an example | |
| [14:42] <c1|freaky> ? | |
| [14:48] <Parker-> you can only export branch... not repository | |
| [14:52] <james_w> c1|freaky: also checkout --lightweight | |
| [14:52] <james_w> that gives you slightly more than export, but no history. | |
| [14:52] <james_w> c1|freaky: bzr export to-this from-URL-of-branch | |
| [15:01] <c1|freaky> can i only export one subdirectory of a project | |
| [15:08] <james_w> no, that's not supported by bzr, but it is quite easy to add on top. | |
| [15:41] <c1|freaky> james_w: how to add something on top? | |
| [15:42] <james_w> c1|freaky: well you can extract to a directory and then just delete everything that you don't want. | |
| [15:42] <james_w> export to a directory, sorry. | |
| [15:43] <c1|freaky> ok thank you | |
| [16:14] <brlcad> does anyone know of a project that provides a "libbazaar"? i.e. C library interface bindings for creating/reading/writing a bazaar repo for directly integrating into a C/C++ application without some wrapper layer? | |
| [16:14] <brlcad> from my searches, it looks like the answer is a solid 'no', but I figured if anyone heard of someone working on such an effort, it'd be in here.. | |
| [16:39] <james_w> brlcad: yeah, as far as I know that is a definite no. | |
| [16:48] <brlcad> james_w: mm, darn but thanks | |
| [17:27] <abentley> brlcad: what for? | |
| [17:36] <brlcad> for integrating into a c/c++ app as a revisioned data store backend for storing data created/used by that app | |
| === jelmer_ is now known as jelmer | |
| [17:59] <aadis> join #actionscript | |
| [17:59] <aadis> heh, sorry | |
| [18:21] <abentley> brlcad: It is possible to use a python library from C/C++, just not very straightforward. | |
| [19:06] <brlcad> abentley: of course, just such wrapper layers are usually quite distasteful to have at all, much less maintain over a long term -- that's why I specifically said without it, just not worth it that way | |
| [19:07] <abentley> Of course, a C/C++ library is even more work to maintain over a long term, and no one so far is interested in doing that. | |
| [19:07] <brlcad> I have a workable path through libsvn, but it means I'll have to resort to repository synchronization into the application layer | |
| [19:08] <brlcad> that certainly depends on the dev audience, for the bzr devs that may very well be the case | |
| [19:18] <brlcad> in any regard, thanks for the insight/responses | |

| [19:35] <NichardRixon> bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: "/.bzr": [Errno 13] Permission denied | |
| [19:35] <NichardRixon> what could be causing this error? | |
| [19:42] <NichardRixon> (using bzr 1.2 on vista in msys) | |
| [19:46] <ryanakca> How can I pull from a branch without putting it on a webserver or on launchpad? I have ssh access to the server where the branch is located | |
| [19:48] <frsk> bzr pull sftp://user@host/path should work | |
| [19:49] <ryanakca> frsk: ok, thanks :) | |
| [19:49] <jdong> that's the loveliness of bzr :) No server needed | |
| [19:50] <jdong> hey jelmer , how much RAM is branching a 16k rev svn repo supposed to take? | |
| [19:50] <jdong> at rev 6k, I'm seeing 400MB or so usage | |
| [19:50] <jdong> I've applied the python bindings memory leak patch backported from Hardy | |
| [19:51] <aadis> NichardRixon: it seems to try to create a directory .bzr in your / dir (C:?). Do you have enough permissions? | |
| [19:51] <NichardRixon> I would assume so | |
| [19:51] <NichardRixon> I mean, if I ssh in and run mkdir .bzr it works fine | |
| [19:51] <aadis> mkdir /.bzr ? | |
| [19:51] <NichardRixon> oh, hrm | |
| [19:52] <NichardRixon> how can I fix this problem :< | |
| [19:52] <abentley> NichardRixon: Your command is trying to create a repository in the root directory of your server. User accounts do not typically have create rights to the root directory. | |
| [19:52] <aadis> ah, sftp defaults to root dir. | |
| [19:52] <abentley> You would specify a directory you do have rights to, like your home directory. | |
| [19:53] <NichardRixon> I assume there's a flag I can set? | |
| [19:53] <radix> yeah. you didn't put a path at the end of that URL | |
| [19:53] <abentley> e.g. bzr init-repo --no-trees sftp://mrlachatte_flyinformation@ssh.phx.nearlyfreespeech.net/~/ | |
| [19:53] <NichardRixon> hrm | |
| [19:54] <NichardRixon> bzr: ERROR: No such file: '': [Errno 2] No such file | |
| [19:54] <abentley> Perhaps you don't have a home directory? | |
| [19:54] <abentley> What directory do you have access to? | |
| [19:54] <NichardRixon> but I do :( | |
| [19:55] <radix> huh, I didn't know "~" works. | |
| [19:55] <NichardRixon> if I go cd ~ it works fine | |
| [19:55] <jdong> try an absolute path to your intended destination? | |
| [19:55] <radix> or maybe it doesn't? :) | |
| [19:55] <jdong> maybe you don't have a home via sftp | |
| [19:55] <abentley> radix: It works on sftp, but not on bzr+ssh | |
| [19:55] <jdong> radix: it works for sftp | |
| [19:55] <NichardRixon> would /home/ work at the end of the path? | |
| [19:55] <radix> NichardRixon: /home/yourusername/ should work. but so should ~ | |
| [19:56] <NichardRixon> bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: "/home/.bzr": [Errno 13] Permission denied | |
| [19:56] <radix> NichardRixon: /home/yourusername, not /home. | |
| [19:57] <NichardRixon> bzr: ERROR: No such file: '/home/mrlachatte': [Errno 2] No such file | |
| [19:57] <NichardRixon> I've got /home when I ssh in | |
| [19:57] <radix> NichardRixon: it sounds like the server setup is broken | |
| [19:57] <abentley> It looks like there's a bug that server/~/ must be followed by a directory name. | |
| [19:57] <radix> NichardRixon: what happens if you "echo $HOME" when you ssh in? | |
| [19:58] <radix> abentley: oops | |
| [19:58] <NichardRixon> \/home/private | |
| [19:58] <NichardRixon> without the \ | |
| [19:58] <radix> NichardRixon: that's... weird | |
| [19:59] <radix> NichardRixon: can you create files in /home/private? maybe you will need to put your bzr branches in there. | |
| [19:59] <NichardRixon> yeah, I'm trying that now | |
| [19:59] <radix> but it's very strange that your home directory isn't /home/<username> | |
| [19:59] <NichardRixon> maybe I can use ~/bzr/ | |
| [20:00] <radix> NichardRixon: yeah, maybe that'll work. | |
| [20:00] <NichardRixon> yay! | |
| [20:00] <NichardRixon> no errors :) | |
| [20:00] <radix> hooray | |
| [20:00] * radix gets lunch | |
| [20:02] <NichardRixon> huh, I'm not seeing anything in ~/bzr/, though | |
| [20:02] <NichardRixon> ls -A shows me nothing | |
| [20:06] <radix> NichardRixon: did you mean to type "ls -a"? | |
| [20:06] <radix> oh, hmm, -A | |
| [20:06] <radix> NichardRixon: that's strange :) | |
| [20:06] <radix> NichardRixon: you're typing "ls -A ~/bzr/" ? | |
| [20:10] <jelmer> jdong: it shouldn't really leak | |
| [20:10] <jelmer> 25k revisions is easily possible here | |
| [20:16] <NichardRixon> friggin' weird | |
| [20:16] <NichardRixon> suddenly my computer started thinking I was pressing alt and shift continuously | |
| [20:16] <NichardRixon> and left arrow or something | |
| [20:16] <NichardRixon> so all my messages started typing backwards | |
| [20:16] <NichardRixon> anyways, ls -A problem still stands | |
| [20:17] <radix> heh | |
| [20:18] <jdong> jelmer: hmm 8k revisions, 600MB RAM :( | |
| [20:19] <lifeless> NichardRixon: if I understand correctly you can push but the content is not there when you look for it ? | |
| [20:19] <jelmer> jdong: Are you sure you've backported the fix correctly and regenerated the SWIG code? | |
| [20:19] <NichardRixon> I haven't pushed yet | |
| [20:19] <NichardRixon> I'm just trying to do an init | |
| [20:19] <jdong> jelmer: I'm 99% certain | |
| [20:20] <jdong> grumble maybe I should just do this on my hardy box and preserve my sanity | |
| [20:20] <lifeless> NichardRixon: whats the exact init command line you are running ? | |
| [20:20] <NichardRixon> $ bzr init sftp://mrlachatte_flyinformation@ssh.phx.nearlyfreespeech.net/~/bzr/Denkatsu/ | |
| [20:21] <jelmer> jdong: It may well be that not all the required changes are backported to 1.4 | |
| [20:21] <radix> NichardRixon: oh, that command should create .bzr in ~/bzr/Denkatsu/ | |
| [20:22] <radix> NichardRixon: not in ~/bzr/ | |
| [20:22] <NichardRixon> yeah, and there's nothing in /bzr/ at all | |
| [20:22] <NichardRixon> er, ~/bzr/ | |
| [20:22] <lifeless> NichardRixon: does it fail ? | |
| [20:22] <NichardRixon> nope | |
| [20:22] <NichardRixon> no errors | |
| [20:22] <lifeless> NichardRixon: so echo $? right after it echos 0 ? | |
| [20:22] <radix> I don't see what the problem is. | |
| [20:23] <radix> oh, Denkatsu doesn't even exist? | |
| [20:23] <NichardRixon> radix, there should be a Denkatsu directory in ~/bzr/, right? | |
| [20:23] <NichardRixon> yes | |
| [20:23] <NichardRixon> lifeless, where does it echo 0? | |
| [20:23] <lifeless> NichardRixon: run this "bzr init sftp://mrlachatte_flyinformation@ssh.phx.nearlyfreespeech.net/~/bzr/Denkatsu/ && echo ok" | |
| [20:23] <lifeless> NichardRixon: tell me if it prints 'ok' | |
| [20:24] <NichardRixon> bzr: ERROR: Already a branch: "sftp://mrlachatte_flyinformation@ssh.phx.nearlyfreespeech.net/~/bzr/Denkatsu/" | |
| [20:24] <radix> there is something weird with that server. | |
| [20:24] <radix> maybe you should avoid use of ~ | |
| [20:25] <NichardRixon> ....oh, interesting | |
| [20:25] <radix> maybe the sftp server thinks that ~ is something different than the shell does. | |
| [20:25] <NichardRixon> under /home/public/bzr there's Denkatsu | |
| [20:25] <NichardRixon> how intriguing | |
| [20:25] <radix> oi. | |
| [20:26] <lifeless> NichardRixon: my next question was 'please run "ssh mrlachatte_flyinformation@ssh.phx.nearlyfreespeech.net pwd" ' | |
| [20:27] <radix> apparently when he sshes in he gets sent to /home, and $HOME is /home/private | |
| [20:27] <NichardRixon> just a straight ssh in dumps me into /home/public | |
| [20:28] <radix> <NichardRixon> I've got /home when I ssh in <-- is it putting you in random different directories each time you log in? ;) | |
| [20:28] <NichardRixon> :D | |
| [20:28] <NichardRixon> non-deterministic ssh | |
| [20:34] <lifeless> NichardRixon: does the presence of the username in the command line alter things? | |
| [20:34] <NichardRixon> eh? | |
| [20:34] <NichardRixon> it's working now | |
| [20:34] <lifeless> NichardRixon: ok good; enjoy | |
| [20:34] <NichardRixon> thank you :) | |
| [21:00] <NichardRixon> arghhhhh | |
| [21:00] <NichardRixon> so I've commited everything to ~/bzr/Denkatsu/ | |
| [21:01] <NichardRixon> but there are no files besides .bzr inside that folder :( | |
| [21:02] <awilkins> This a push? Push doesn't update the tree | |
| [21:05] <NichardRixon> wait whoops, wasn't doing ls -A | |
| [21:05] <NichardRixon> there's a .bzr folder and the world is right | |

| [22:56] <igc> morning | |
| [22:58] <bmonty> can anyone help with using bzrlib? I'm trying to restrict the results from workingtree.changes_from to a specific dir. | |
| [23:02] <lifeless> specific_paths=['dir'] | |
| [23:03] <bmonty> does it have to be a relative path (or is there any requirement?) | |
| [23:03] <lifeless> yes, tree relative path | |
| [23:03] <bmonty> thanks | |
| [23:03] <lifeless> if you have an absolute path, tree.relative_path(abs_path) it first | |
| [23:04] <bmonty> ah, that helps alot! | |
| [23:05] <lifeless> because there can be N aliases to a tree, we only work with relative paths in the tree api (with some very, and odd, exceptions) | |
