[12:33] <jave> hello
[12:33] <jave> I get memory problems merging a local branch from a remote
[12:33] <jelmer> hi
[12:34] <jave> is there some flag for bzr so I can trade memory for speed or something?
[12:35] <jelmer> jave: no
[12:35] <jelmer> jave: what version are you running though? newer versions are more efficient, memory-wise
[12:47] <jave> Ive tried using 2.5 and the 2.6 beta
=== sagaci_ is now known as sagaci
[14:43] <LarstiQ> jave: can you fish the corresponding backtrace from .bzr.log?
[14:58] <crisb> is there any hook where i can check/change a commit message if -m is specified on the commit?
[15:00] <jelmer> crisb: a pre_commit hook can do that
[15:00] <crisb> jelmer: ahhhh - including change?
[15:01] <jelmer> crisb: yeah, that hook should have access to the commit message
[15:01] <crisb> mwuhahahah, thanks jelmer
[15:01] <crisb> :)
[15:16] <jml> does bzr support python 2.4 any more?
[15:17] <jelmer> jml: no
[15:17] <jelmer> jml: >= 2.6
[15:17] <jelmer> IIRC 2.4 was the last bzr version that supported python 2.4
[15:18] <jml> jelmer: thanks.
[15:19] <jml> jelmer: I'm going to drop Python 2.4 support from testtools after the next release.
[15:19] <jelmer> jml: okay
[15:20] <jelmer> jml: we'll probably stick to the next release of testtools in samba then, but that's not the end of the world
[15:20] <jml> jelmer: samba supports 2.4?
[15:22] <jelmer> jml: yep
[15:22] <jml> jelmer: wow.
[15:22] <jml> jelmer: why?
[15:23] <jelmer> jml: in practice, a lot of enterprisy people still use platforms with python2.4
[15:24] <crisb> jelmer: argh, looks like it's still not possible (386161)
[15:24] <jelmer> bug 386161
[15:24] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 386161 in Bazaar "pre_commit hook should be able to modify the commit message" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/386161
[15:24] <jelmer> crisb: what about start_commit ?
[15:24] <jelmer> I know for sure that hooks can modify the commit message
[15:24] <jml> jelmer: pre-hardy is pretty ancient.
[15:24] <jml> jelmer: but sure, I can buy that.
[15:25] <jml> Hmm.
[15:26] <jelmer> jml: the previous RHEL has python2.4, for example
[15:27] <jelmer> I had a very hard time even getting us to depend on Python; we still support autoconf for a subset of Samba (just the fileserver) since some people want to avoid the python dependency
[15:27] <fullermd> Ancient. Hah.
[15:27] <jml> I guess 7.5 years isn't too bad.
[15:27] <fullermd> There was a thread just earlier this week on the Postfix mailing list about some build problems on BSD/OS 4.x.
[15:28] <fullermd> (don't misplace those 3 letters. I didn't say "FreeBSD"...)
[15:28] <fullermd> Platforms running py2.4 look pretty new now, don't they :p
[15:30] <jelmer> fullermd: :)
[15:31] <jelmer> some of the other samba developers still support installations on tru64
[15:34] <fullermd> What the DEC is wrong with them? :p

[21:41] <maxb> jubany importer stopped: quantal opening fallout. Nothing major, just needs the usual tweaks to lists of distros. I'll do it later if no-one beats me to it.
[21:41] <maxb> See u-d-d@ for traceback
[23:01] <maxb> OK, what?
[23:02] <maxb> Who started the jubany importer again?
[23:04] <maxb> james_w: Do you happen to be around?
[23:07] <lifeless> maxb: probably someone in -ops ?
[23:07] <lifeless> spm: ^ ?
[23:07] <spm> hmmm
[23:09] <spm> maxb: I presume you've stopped it again?
[23:09] <maxb> yup
[23:09] <maxb> I've been sending updates to ubuntu-distributed-devel@lists.ubuntu.com, is there somewhere else I should cc?
[23:11] <spm> unsure. that service isn't something webops has access to control. so it's basically you guys or gsas atm
[23:12] <maxb> I'm going to restart it now anyway, having taught it what a Quantal Quetzal is
[23:13] <spm> must. resist. making. (another). QQ. joke.
