moritz does it work? :-) 16:23
masak I have one known/outstanding bug, but I don't consider it a blocker.
the rest works, to my knowledge. I'd rather have what I have in maste^Wnom.
I'll be happy to write a todo test for the known bug.
16:24 ObseLeTe left

16:25 jaldhar_ joined
masak well, when I say "merge", I really mean something more like "rebase, write spectests, and then merge" ;) 16:26
16:26 _jaldhar left
masak but I have some time to do that tonight, so that's what I'll do. 16:26
moritz why rebase instead of merging?
16:27 ObseLeTe joined
moritz if you don't expect any fallout from the merge, you can merge locally, spectest and then push 16:27
masak hm, I meant rebase interactively, to make the commits make me appear less stupid ;) 16:28
moritz don't worry about that
we pretty much know stupid (or not) you are :-)
japhb Developers (me included) have an irrational fear of looking stupid. Don't bother with that, you've already proven yourself here. :-)
masak *sigh* -- I must've phrased myself badly. 16:29
:)
I actually have very little fear of appearing stupid. if I did, I would be much less chatty on this channel.
japhb Long ago when I worked at a place that had Quake LAN games, my nick was "Dumbass" so no one could claim I was being uncharacteristically stupid. ;-) 16:30
masak the last five years have been one big journey of discovery for me. I've learned loads, much thanks to daring to look stupid when that was the easiest way to learn things.
the "make the commits make me appear less stupid" is more of a meme than anything else. I'm actually not afraid of leaving commits behind that make me look stupid. 16:31
but I do like leaving commits behind that are nicely compartmentalized and "do one thing well".
japhb Ah, that is a worthy goal. 16:32
masak actually, I don't seem to need an interactive rebase this time. they look fairly nice as it is.
japhb \o/ 16:33
masak there's a bit of "no, let's do it like this" in there, but in a sense, that's good historical documentation too.
japhb True
masak for D1, I rebased too much, I think, making the work look like one big commit :)
japhb Some of that "historical documentation" should probably become condensed into code comments or Pod. It's nice to read a current rev, wonder why one of a few possible designs was chosen, and see a nice comment that says "I couldn't do A because foo, or B because bar, so I went with C, which seems to be working" 16:35
masak on a scale between "leave informative comments" and "leave informative commits", my preference seems to fall more towards the former than most programmers' 16:38
japhb Works for me ... going all the way to the latter seems to only work when most of the team does it, or the repo is curated (in the way that the Linux kernel is) 16:42
masak agree. 16:45
16:49 ObseLeTe left
masak moritz: as to the more general way to interpret the question "why rebase instead of merging?": I vastly prefer commits in a straight line to branches and merge commits. 16:56
leont You can do both 16:58
That way you can have merge commits (useful) without having non-linear history (annoying) 16:59
moritz masak: if there are commits that break features, I much prefer a merge commit
masak leont: I don't understand how that can be.
leont You first rebase your branch on master, then merge it into master using --no-ff 17:00
masak leont: ah. nice.
moritz: you mean breakages that are discovered later? why are merge commits nicer in that case?
leont Trick I learned on p5p, actually. Think it was demerphq's. 17:01
moritz masak: no, I mean if a branch breaks the build, or some features that previously worked
17:06 MayDaniel joined 17:07 birdwindupbird left
masak why would I want to merge work from a branch that breaks the build? I don't understand the use case. 17:07
moritz well, eventually you fix it in the branch 17:09
adn then you merge the branch
instead of rebasing all the commits on top of master/nom
so that from the perspective of the master branch, there is one commit (a merge commit) that didn't break anything 17:10
masak ok, now I understand your scenario.
why is a merge commit better there? 17:11
moritz because a git bisect won't stumbler over the commits that broke the build, for example
*stumble
and it's easier to see which commits were associated with a certain feature 17:12
masak seems to me you're exclusively talking about the use of git-rebase --interactive that squashes commits. 17:17
I kinda like the way the topology is flattened. I'm not necessarily advocating squashing commits in the process. 17:18
17:19 rindolf joined
moritz masak: well, squashing commits in one thing, but I wouldn't squash a whole non-trivial branch 17:23
mst right, for that purpose I prefer to rebase onto master 17:25
and then force git to produce a merge commit anyway
that tends to look really nice in the relevant browsers etc.
moritz what's the benefit over straight merging? 17:26
masak the usual benefit of rebasing. 17:34
you get conflicts in commit order, not all-at-once. 17:35
mst straight merging is a crutch for people who don't have git. 17:55
moritz mst: that's not an answer to my question -)
mst it's one of those "try it with the rebasing for a bit, then go back to without, then scream, then understand" type things
if you don't immediately see the value in having a clean commit history, you're probably not going to be swayed by any argument I can think of, so TIAS is probably an easier answer 17:56
moritz mst: I do value a clean commit history, I just don't see why a rebase + merge is supposed to (significantly) cleaner 17:57
[Coke] waves from the airport.
moritz if many of the commits have conflicts, then I can see the value. If not, not
mst so ... you're saying "there are two cases - one where the rebase is superior, and one where the rebase is neutral" 17:58
at this point, I would argue that the argument for defaulting to doing the rebase has just been made :)
17:58 cjbot joined
moritz ok, I agree now :-) 17:59
mst oh, the other thing is it means that after the rebase, I can do a straight 'git diff master' to get a clean diff set to review
[Coke] is very happy he has a chance to git pull everythig before the flight 18:00
mst which during the reviewathon I just did for dbix-class was really quite handy
masak mst++ # swaying moritz ;) 18:01

[Coke] the sleeps are probably the wrong way to stop us from killing the CPU long term. 18:05
glad to see he hasn't fallen asleep, though.
moritz [Coke]: yes, it's not a long term solution, just a workaround 18:06
mst well, I'll be doing a bit of async I/O stuff 18:07
I guess you can bolt a timer API on the top in the process of rewriting my code to not be completely horrible
(since I'm sure it'll require that)

aloha: don't fall asleep 18:37

moritz isn't Perl 6 wonderful?
GlitchMr Using log() for logging instead of logarithm

sorear dunno, I don't know python 18:45
18:45 sivoais joined
sorear moritz: niecza's signature binder treats Nil as an omitted argument 18:46
although this seems to not (longer?) be by spec 18:48
moritz I'm pretty sure you should be able to === to Nil
sorear I am not so sure where I stand on this particular consistency/DWIM tradeoff 18:51
since we've established that === autothreads, it's not a low-level binding 18:52
moritz if the OKNess proposal goes anywhere, that will probably change anyway 18:53

TimToady also that viv can now parse nearly 800 lines of viv 18:56
phenny TimToady: 23 Aug 13:12Z <sorear> tell TimToady see colomon 06:12 and 05:13 PDT, I think we are looking at a stdbug
sorear TimToady: awesome!
leont viv == perl5 on perl6? 18:57
TimToady yep
moritz erm, isn't that the other way round?
it's the p6-to-p5 compiler that runs STD.pm6
TimToady well, it's a perl5 parser written in perl6
anyway, got heredocs working earlier today, at least for the '' and "" forms 18:58
ingy an someone give me a url for a grammar of perl6?
c
sorear the way STD is currently set up, there is 6000 lines of Perl 6 which implements a grammar (std/STD.pm6), and 4000 lines of Perl 5 which implements the Perl 5 emitter (std/viv)
github.com/perl6/std, STD.pm6 18:59
github.com/perl6/std/blob/master/STD.pm6
TimToady well, viv itself is 4300 lines, so I don't know where you're gonna find the -300 lines :P 19:00
sorear TimToady recently restarted a Perl 6 gramar for Perl 5 (std/STD_P5.pm6)
I think "viv can parse 400 lines of viv" means "std/viv+std/STD.pm6+std/STD_P5.pm6 can parse 400 lines of viv" 19:01
STD_P5 is not independent of STD
TimToady correct
masak had not realized this 19:05
TimToady it uses the same EXPR opp parser, for instance
eiro hello all 19:08
masak heiro!

eiro: perlcabal.org/syn/S26.html#The+%3dEND+block 20:00
huh, I thought we renamed that one =finish
is S26 on the web out-of-date?
moritz might be 20:03
if it's just --doc=HTML output, I can easily refresh it
eiro thanks :) 20:04
masak rebase successful. rebuilding and respectesting.
moritz tadzik: I meant pod-gist to be a replacement for Pod::Block.gist, not .Str :-) 20:10
Pod::To::HTML doesn't seem to like the change :/
sorear (o/ everyone) 20:13
moritz and t/spec/S26-documentation/09-configuration.t doesn't like it either :( 20:14
masak post-rebase spectest run succeeded. pushing.

masak it'll have b7e189 in a little while :)
masak is excited at this 20:17
I haven't added tests yet, but I will during the weekend.
moritz masak: does that mean I should wait with pushing my local patch until you're done? 20:18
masak no, it means I'm done.
moritz (I just want to add a test file)
masak I've already pushed.
moritz \o/
masak r: say "how about now?"

moritz triggers a rebuild manually 20:20
masak moritz++ 20:22
moritz oops, github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/19...316dbc1ddd contained stuff I wanted to put into a separate commit
moritz-- # still using git commit -a
masak whoa. I never used -a by virtue of it being obviously a bad idea from the start. 20:23
20:23 rindolf left
masak I *want* to add files (or parts of them) manually. 20:23
(in other words, I like the staging area)
moritz r: say 42 20:27
p6eval rakudo 196572: OUTPUT«42␤»
moritz that's the new rakudo
jnthn evening o/
moritz good UGT morning, jnthn
jnthn no...it's so not morning :P 20:28
moritz in UGT it's always morning when you join a conversation :-) 20:29
masak jnthn: good morning! 20:30

masak seems to be a systematic error. investigating.
oh!
hm, I have such a method here...
jnthn NQP revision bump fail? 20:33
masak possibly.
moritz 2012.08-2-gc223607 added it 20:35
masak yes, looks kosher.
moritz and it works locally
masak I have that as the current NQP_REVISION
moritz: manual rebuild didn't update nqp? 20:36
moritz masak: I have a theory
(it should, because I ran the same command as cron does)
maybe it did a 'git pull' during an existing rebuild run 20:37
masak :/
moritz $ p6eval@feather:~/nom/nqp$ ./nqp --version
This is nqp version 2012.08-4-g8fac254 built on parrot 4.4.0 revision RELEASE_4_4_0
that is very odd 20:38
moritz cleans out and tries again 20:39
sorear jnthn!
moritz in particular it's odd that it has a newer NQP revision than was ever in tools/buil/NQP_REVISION 20:40
and now NQP rebuild segfaulted 20:41
wtf.
masak o.O 20:42
moritz r: macro demo($ast) { quasi { {{{$ast}}} } }; say demo "first" 20:49
p6eval rakudo 196572: OUTPUT«===SORRY!===␤Method 'position' not found for invocant of class 'QAST::Unquote'␤»

masak oh!
bug.
moritz they are not hygienic?
masak this would happen if the unquotes don't get their context set properly, I guess.
they should.
they're meant to be hygienic. 21:14
moritz could say lots of things about writing tests early in the process, but decides not to
instead, I'll gravitate towards the bed 21:15
'night &
masak 'night :) 21:17
I usually tend towards writing tests early in the process, too.
anyway, this is an excellent test to put in a macros-d2.t file. moritz++ 21:18
hm, if the above happens, then that means...
r: macro call($a) { quasi { {{{$a}}}() } }; my $x = "lexical"; call { say $x }
p6eval rakudo 196572: OUTPUT«Any()␤»
masak yeah.

[Coke] spends a flight trying to convert partcl to partcl-nqp, is stymied, and then remembers that pmichaud already did most of this work. 21:42
sorear: how was the trip?
UGT: universal grumpy time. 21:44
[Coke] notes that "class foo is bar; <class def>" fails horribly in nqp, but only if you target==pir. 21:45

[Coke] is it still necessary to "use NQPP6Regein nqp? 21:49
is it still necessary to "use NQPP6Regex" in nqp?
(I hope not, since it's failing. ;) 21:50
can someone help me with a nqp-rx -> nqp regex issue? 21:53
diakopter probably not, but I'm curious what the problem is 21:54
(probably not *I)
[Coke] gist.github.com/3471303
diakopter I think ** went away 21:55
[Coke] remembers to checkout a copy of the specs this time..
diakopter try % instead? 21:56
[Coke] see, you were helpful. /( 21:57
;) 21:58
masak diakopter: ** went away for separators. not for numbered/range quantifiers.
diakopter ah.
(good thing this case was a separator)
[Coke] if I change it to %, it now dies with: 21:59
Unable to parse blockoid, couldn't find final '}' at line 7, near "token meta"
diakopter :S 22:00
[Coke] updated gist 22:02
diakopter maybe it was %%
(sorry!)
diakopter no clue
[Coke] that would impact what the regex did, but not stop it from compiling 22:04
sorear [Coke]: trip was great

3. notice that the dalek frontend is NOT RUNNING 22:12
[Coke] glad to hear it. I am travelling for work to a programming conference, but it's to learn about "agile". :P
sorear 4. attempt to fix
[Coke] stares at regexes.
22:13 cognominal joined
sorear o/ cognominal 22:16
[Coke] so, ** -> % or %% seems to be the right answer, but doing a simple dropin replacement doesn't work.
dalek ecza: 3826c2a | sorear++ | Makefile:
Add an extra dependency to make parallel make happy

ecza: 9fad9f7 | sorear++ | / (5 files):
First attempt to use a per-user directory for the module cache

Data is stored in Local Application Data\NieczaModuleCache, which Mono will
  map to $HOME/.local/share/NieczaModuleCache. The --obj-dir object actually
does something now (how long has it been broken?) and can be used to isolate multiple instances of Niecza, and is used internally to make bootstrapping work.
One known wart is that $*PERL<version> may become out of date because it is only updated when the setting needs to be recompiled, and the build system no longer always forces a recompilation of the user-wide setting.
ecza: 55e895a | sorear++ | Makefile:
Update mkpackage for new run/Run.Kernel.dll file setup
sorear whee, dalek is working
[Coke]: ** -> +%
