19:24 forcer    Yeah, couldn't it...
19:21 lispy     forcer: no prehooks, but yeah, darcs could benefit from them
19:10 forcer    It seems darcs dist only has --posthook - isn't there a "prehook" so I can adjust the contents of the tarball?
19:09 ohub      yeah
19:07 piggybox  I was looking for send/apply solution, but it requires taking care of different contexts, which is quite bothersome.
19:06 piggybox  I didn't knew from the document that I can use normal file directory in addition to urls.
19:04 piggybox  Yes, I've tried. It's very easy. Darcs's wonderful.
18:39 ohub      You can have the "main" repository in your USB stick and then use it like any other darcs repository.
18:37 piggybox  I will try the idea of mutual folder in a USB sticker. Thanks.
18:36 piggybox  Hi ohub, I've got some clues from the wiki. Since there's not web server, I have syndicate the context(changes log) by myself between two projects in order to use send/apply
18:32 ohub      or maybe you could have a repository in USB stick or something and then do pulls and pushes to it.
18:31 ohub      I think you could do that with darcs send --output=FILE in first end and darcs apply FILE on another.
18:25 piggybox  how to use darcs to sychronize two project folders on two computers without network?
17:51 xerox     Ooh, those are nice!
17:44 tschwinge s/no/now
17:44 tschwinge Gah.
17:44 tschwinge Right, no I understand.
17:43 Igloo     # means "number" in some contexts
17:42 Igloo     The "7) factor darcs into a library" in the above list
17:42 tschwinge #7?
17:41 lispy     but i'm partial to the 'libdarcs' idea :)
17:41 lispy     tschwinge: yeah, that might actually be more useful than my #7
17:40 tschwinge knows a darcs SoC project: make it usable non-interactively.
17:23 lispy     heh
17:23 Igloo     5 ought to cover all the actual darcs ones. If not, someone should file some bugs  :-)
17:23 lispy     my projects probably don't sound very fun
17:23 Igloo     Yes, but I thought you were listing things that would make good SoC projects
17:23 lispy     Igloo: can you think of any fun SoC darcs projects that i missed?
17:22 lispy     it's still important though
17:22 lispy     hehe
17:22 Igloo     1 is a bad idea if you want to be confident of finishing this summer
17:21 lispy     those are just the ones that come immediately to mind
17:21 lispy     1) fix the theoretical problems with patch theory and implement them (you have to write code to get paid by google).  2) cleanup the performance 3) finish the gui 4) improve tortoise darcs 5) tackle random bugs in the bug tracker 6) add darcs support to various IDEs 7) factor darcs into a library
15:38 xerox     MD5 (wxDarcs) = 8ed8295acc13f89ef15275998ab14f9f
15:38 xerox     MD5 (darcs) = 8ed8295acc13f89ef15275998ab14f9f
15:36 Igloo     No idea
15:36 Igloo     The argument is probably to the command. I've never tried it myself, though
15:36 xerox     Does it provide a make uninstall perchance?
15:36 xerox     Right.
15:36 Igloo     make install should work, but obviously won't interact with any packaging system you may have
15:36 xerox     darcs failed:  Invalid command '--gui'!
15:36 xerox     $ ./wxDarcs --gui
15:36 Igloo     I think you need a --gui argument if you actually want to use the GUI
15:36 xerox     Unfortunately darwinports doesn't recognize my ghc (which I built in-place.)
15:35 xerox     I'm just trying to understand if there is a clean way to install darcs now, in fact.
15:35 xerox     Seems not.  "make wxDarcs.app"
15:35 Igloo     darcs has a WX GUI for some operations...don't know if that's what you're refering to
15:34 xerox     I mean the one in the darcs tarball... it doesn't seem to open a wx GUI, but darcs itself.
15:33 xerox     What is wxDarcs?
15:24 weary     *cheer*
15:20 xerox     Woohoo, it built!
14:59 xerox     sob.

14:56 xerox     tries to compile darcs with experimental ghc-6.5 for i386-darwin-apple ... brrrr! :-)
13:07 weary     i also updated the emerge-instructions, i think it was missing a ~x86 in the echo line
13:06 weary     ok. that was easy. re-emerge of ghc-bin solved it. wiki updated
12:48 weary     ok. i'll just wait 'n see if using the ghc-package solves anything
12:48 Jerub     update it to reflect your experiences.
12:48 weary     must be
12:47 Jerub     we had someone here a few weeks ago with exactly this problem.
12:47 Jerub     I think the wiki lies
12:47 weary     ghc-bin should be enough, but apparently it is missing something
12:46 weary     if possible, i'll stick with portage, i'll emerge ghc
12:45 Jerub     also, this is probably the easiest way of getting the latest: http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/CategoryBinaries#head-338dc7e02a28fba3d852be3009e0570d2143f152

12:44 weary     on amd x2 that should be less, and i have an old version of darcs, i can wait
12:44 Jerub     or! you can just use a binary.
12:44 Jerub     then, compiling darcs is a couple minutes.
12:44 Jerub     weary: on my powermac, that takes a couple hours.
12:43 Jerub     weary: the problem is actually quite simple. GHC is a compiler. You've got a 'bootstrap' compiler for GHC. In order to compile darcs you're going to need to use the bootstrap GHC to compile GHC.
12:42 Jerub     weary: use a binary.
12:42 weary     gentoo :)
12:42 Jerub     weary: use a binary.
12:41 weary     when configuring darcs, if it tells me "Could not find module `Prelude'", i assume something is wrong with my ghc installation. any idea what?
08:11 C-Keen    hi
05:27 lispy     hi
05:27 araujo    Hello.
04:17 Jerub     attempts to spend some time fixing his tailor/darcs problem.
