[13:13] <max12345> Hello everyone, I want to make a change to a project. What's the process like for contacting the right people and talking about that?
[13:38] <cjwatson> max12345: Depends very much on the project and the change. Can you give a little more detail?
[13:39] <max12345> It's about apport, I want some more details in the UI. But of course I'd like to talk with someone first if what I want to do makes sense.
[13:40] <cjwatson> max12345: You'd normally start by filing a bug report. If you mean the Ubuntu package of apport, then start by running "ubuntu-bug apport"
[13:41] <max12345> cjwatson: Ok I will do that then.
[13:41] <max12345> cjwatson: thanks
[13:42] <cjwatson> max12345: I think https://code.launchpad.net/~apport-hackers/apport/trunk is still the primary upstream branch, so it should be possible to propose merges of branches into that
[13:42] <cjwatson> But I don't know the exact process for apport
[15:24] <rbasak> Looks like "git clone" is broken for Xenial clients
[15:24] <rbasak> $ git clone -b pkg/ubuntu/devel https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hello hello
[15:24] <rbasak> Cloning into 'hello'...
[15:24] <rbasak> fatal: protocol error: expected sha/ref, got 'version 1'
[15:24] <rbasak> Also affects the usd-importer git tree
[15:24] <rbasak> So I think it's any repository
[15:24] <rbasak> Focal clients are not affected
[15:25] <rbasak> tomwardill: ^
[15:26] <rbasak> "git clone -b ubuntu/devel https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hello hello" is the correct command but it never gets to using the -b parameter.
[15:28] <tomwardill> rbasak: there's a turnip upgrade in progress, I've just passed tha ton
[15:28] <rbasak> Thanks
[15:29] <tomwardill> sorry, was otp
[15:29] <tomwardill> we're looking at it
[15:33] <cjwatson> Yeah, I think we likely need to revert this upgrade - missed the incompatibility with old clients
[15:52] <rbasak> This has unfortunately ground git-ubuntu to a halt as the snap is based on Xenial's git client
[15:52] <rbasak> I might as well stop the service for now
[15:55] <cjwatson> Yep, sorry - it should be fixed shortly, a revert is in progress
[15:56] <cjwatson> In fact possibly fixed now
[16:01] <rbasak> Confirmed fixed. Thank you for the quick revert!
[16:01] * rbasak restarts git-ubuntu
