[04:35] <fbond> lifeless: This is a pretty crude explanation of how I use loom.
[04:35] <fbond> lifeless: It needs more detail added, but it is a start.
[04:35] <fbond> I'll see if I can flesh things out a bit more.
[05:22] <cybX> hello all
[05:22] <cybX> anyone alive? good grief...I haven't irc'd in a year
[05:22] <cybX> i feel like a newbie all over again
[05:22] <cybX> yay
[06:03] <cybX> alrighty then
[10:48] <rexbron> hmm...
[10:48] <rexbron> bzr: ERROR: Repository KnitPackRepository('file:///home/rexbron/packages/quassel/.bzr/repository/') is not compatible with repository SvnRepository('http://svn.quassel-irc.org')
[10:48] <rexbron> is it not possible to use bzr-svn inside a repo?
[10:49] <fullermd> Yes, but only if the repo uses a rich root capable format like bzr-svn requires.
[10:49] <AfC> rexbron: yes it is, but you need to make the repository be of format "rich-root-pack"
[10:49] <AfC> rexbron: (at least, that's what I had to use a month back)
[10:49] <rexbron> ok
[10:49] <fullermd> (which means you probably don't want to mix it with repos containing other stuff)
[10:49] <AfC> fullermd: did they get that rich-root stuff into the default as of 1.4, or are they still faffing about?
[10:49] <rexbron> thanks
[10:50] <fullermd> It's not in 1.4 certainly.
[10:50] <fullermd> abentley was fiddling. At one point the next format would be default and rich root. Last I heard, he was waffling toward switching defaulting rich-root-pack.
[10:50] <AfC> rexbron: ... regarding what fullermd just said, if you follow a convention of having a directory (containing a repository) being the parent directory of a bunch of branches all related to the same project, then things work out rather well.
[10:51] <AfC> rexbron: [I have
[10:51] <AfC> ~/src/andrew/project1/branchN
[10:51] <AfC> ~/src/andrew/project2/branchN
[10:51] <AfC> ...
[10:51] <AfC> and
[10:51] <AfC> ~/src/otehr/project3/branchN
[10:51] <AfC> other*
[10:51] <AfC> where project3 has a different repo format
[10:52] <AfC> but the real matter is that each of projectN has its own repo
[10:52] <rexbron> AfC: that is how I approach it aswell
[10:52] <AfC> rexbron: you'll be all set then
[10:52] <AfC> just create a new project directory with
[10:53] <AfC> $ bzr init-repo --rich-root-pack project3
[10:53] <AfC> [or whatever the current recommended format is, {sigh}]
[11:26] <mathrick> https://launchpad.net/~bzr/+archive <-- bzr debs are mislabelled
[11:27] <mathrick> they all say ~hardy1, when the series listed is different
[11:29] <mathrick> in fact, the whole thing confuses me
[11:29] <mathrick> half of the builds have no corresponding .debs linked
[12:05] <bimberi> mathrick: Launchpad build records remain even after a package is deleted.
[12:05] <bimberi> *Launchpad *ppa*
[12:07] <mathrick> ah
[12:08] <bimberi> wrt the mislabelling, I'm guessing that the new LP feature allowing package copying was used.

[20:10] <nick125> Hello
[20:11] <nick125> I'm having a *small* issue with bzr ignore...for some reason, it isn't ignoring my pattern. In my .bzrignore file, I have *~ and *.pyc, but it's still adding those files. Am I doing something wrong?
[20:17] <jelmer> nick125: Are you specifying the files explicitly perhaps?
[20:18] <nick125> jelmer: Hmm...that's possible. I did a bzr add *..would that add ignored files?
[20:19] <jelmer> nick125, yep it would
[20:19] <jelmer> nick125, try "bzr add" if you want it to obey the ignores file
[20:19] <nick125> neat..thanks!
[21:48] <lifeless> fbond: thanks
