 aidalgol | This was before I switched to Lix, though. Let me see if I can make it happen again. | 23:24:02 |
 KFears (annoying) | Oh, reading 2.18 manual, there's this:
When git+file is used without specifying ref or rev, files are fetched directly from the local path as long as they have been added to the Git repository. If there are uncommitted changes, the reference is treated as dirty and a warning is printed.
| 23:24:21 |
| aidalgol | What's the URL for whatever you're reading? | 23:24:57 |
| KFears (annoying) | Gahh, I hate it. I also disable warn-dirty because it's so ridiculously noisy for normal workflows... | 23:26:33 |
| aidalgol | OK, here we go. I'm going to abbreviate the repos to vsf and sf. What I did was.
- Made a code change in my local checkout of
sf (did not stage or commit anything)
- In my local
vsf checkout, I changed the input for sf to git+file:///path/to/sf
- Ran
nix flake update sf
This is the git diff of flake.lock in my local vsf checkout.:

| KFears (annoying) | It will probably be unfixable too, until we can fork off flakes :/
Given that dirty warnings pop up even when the only local flake you have is the one you're directly working with, it seems like self is treated as git+file, and removing the dirty behavior will break iterative improvements on self extremely hard, and replacing git+file with path will probably break too much stuff people are used to | 23:32:07 |
| aidalgol | Er, correction. I did not actually do step 3. What causes the flake.lock to be updated is direnv. | 23:32:13 |
| aidalgol | I have use flake in .envrc in this repo. | 23:32:24 |
| aidalgol | Is direnv supposed to mess with the lock file? | 23:32:41 |

| * aidalgol dies | 23:33:03 |
| KFears (annoying) | Thanks for the report, I'll try to document it somewhere | 23:33:30 |
| aidalgol | Is this worth raising as a bug on the Lix issue tracker just so it's on record? | 23:33:34 |
| aidalgol | Or I'll leave it to you. :P | 23:33:38 |
| KFears (annoying) | I'm not sure that it even makes sense to open a bug D:
Seems like a design issue in flakes that we'll have to live with, because actually fixing it will break the universe | 23:34:18 |

Is direnv supposed to mess with the lock file? I think it is, at least it has been updating my lock files for me for years | 23:34:53 |
| aidalgol | Yeah, best not to do that until such time as it is worth it for Lix to diverge from CppNix. | 23:35:16 |

| lunar-starlight | I have a question, the wiki page is somehow working out what country I'm from, and it's "helpfully" translating all of the non-user generated content. Both Firefox and Linux locale are set to English, so it's not getting it from there. The main page (lix.systems) gets the language "right" (as in, English). Any way to turn this off? Preferably server-side, since it's both weird for a page to tell me it knows where I live and impose a language preference on me, and also it's too low quality to be of use. (I would be happy to provide better translations if you want them though) | 15:50:46 |
| aidalgol | Are you logged in to the wiki, and if so, is your preferred language in your user settings there set to English? | 18:21:13 |
| lunar-starlight | I am not logged in | 18:21:42 |
| lunar-starlight | If I log in it's in English (and the preferred language setting is English) | 18:22:52 |
 underscore_pear | heya. has anybody experienced their refresh rate breaking on nixos with lix? i'm using a framework 16 and i did a routine change to my config and after rebuilding my screen only refreshes when i move the mouse :( any ideas? | 19:52:33 |
