14:28 gour joined #darcs
14:29 * gour just found out about droundy's git-darcs
14:30 kowey well, it's not aiming for any sort of darcs compatibility, I think
14:30 kowey it really does look like good stuff, though
14:31 gour he is not any longer interested in improving darcs?
14:32 kowey I wish I understood it better... my vague understanding is that iolaus uses one branch per patch, and that each patch is in the minimal context
14:32 kowey not really
14:32 gour if it's similar to git, then it's too complicate for me to think about it
14:32 kowey no, no
14:33 kowey it does all this for you behind the scenes... you just see your working directory
14:33 kowey I *think*, without having a good understanding that it would be like using darcs for short term history
14:33 kowey (ie. with all the cherry picking goodness)
14:33 gour heh
14:34 kowey but that once things go into the official repo, then you lose some of the cherry picking
14:34 kowey which may actually be just fine, because it's quite plausible that in practice, after a certain point, you don't care so much about cherry picking anyway
14:34 gour darcs enables me, or at least i think so, to understand a bit, how my patches are travelling around
14:34 gour model is not so complicated, but i'm not aware of the implementation details
14:34 kowey yeah
14:35 kowey well one thing we don't yet know how to do in darcs is track history
14:35 gour that's why i won't bother thinking too long about his new child
14:35 kowey we can reorder things, but we can't tell you things like "changeset X was applied to repo Y by Z"
14:35 Igloo There's no good reason for that, though
14:35 Igloo It's just a question of tuits
14:35 kowey hmm, hopefully we'll be able to keep in touch
14:35 gour heh, that's part of 'design'
14:35 kowey right
14:36 kowey but there is something that may be nice about state-based revision control...
14:36 * kowey vaguely and incoherently mumbles something about "robustness"
14:36 kowey the reason I'm being vague and incoherent about this is that I don't have the intellectual chops to back this idea up...
14:37 kowey but I do have a sort of feeling that in the state-based world, you're in less trouble if something should go wrong
14:38 kowey anyway, another interesting effect of iolaus, if David does get around to making it usable
14:38 kowey is that it solves the network effects problem!
14:38 kowey you don't care if other people use Iolaus or not, as long as they have a git repository
14:39 gour strange world when git 'format' is becoming standard :-D

20:21 tux_rocker hmm, so david reimplemented darcs on top of git!?
20:22 tux_rocker and it still contains SlurpDirectory :)
20:37 tux_rocker he is one amazing coder
20:37 tux_rocker be a physicist, and make a build system and an SCM in your spare time in one year
20:47 tux_rocker i can' t get franchise anywhere

22:10 dons i'm somewhat annoyed this isn't cabalized.
22:10 dons somewhat/unsurprised.
22:10 dons not using cabal will continue to hinder adoption.
22:12 idnar I thought darcs was cabalized now
22:12 idnar although I seem to recall a bunch of issues with configuration detection
22:12 idnar or feature testing, rather
22:13 dons darcs is, certainly.
22:14 idnar oh, sorry, I must have missed some context then
22:16 Heffalump droundy's git porcelain
22:16 Heffalump that tries to make it darcs-like (I don't know how well it succeeds, but my guess is that it makes cherry picking better but not as good as darcs)
22:17 idnar ah
22:22 gal_bolle Heffalump: did you witnessify Commands/Changes.lhs?
22:23 Heffalump nope
22:23 Heffalump I still haven't got my other witnessification in a state to submit :-(
22:23 Heffalump the problem is that it's all tied up with my rebase branch. And untangling it is a perfect test case for rebase, and I keep finding problems with rebase doing so :-)
22:23 gal_bolle ok
22:24 gal_bolle do you mind in i try to do it?
22:24 Heffalump do what, witness everything else?
22:25 Heffalump or just Changes
22:25 JaffaCake joined #darcs
22:25 Heffalump I'm fine if you do either, in any case.
22:25 gal_bolle i'm starting with changes
22:25 Heffalump though obviously you might feel you're wasting your time to do the things I have done but not submitted yet
22:26 gal_bolle ^- because of this
22:30 Heffalump I'll try to get a move on.
