@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumbleare you supposed to put Cago.lock in gitignore?15:15:49
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumble i was thinking of building this for myself
https://github.com/waywallen/waywallen/blob/main/.gitignore
but they gitignored the Cargo.lock file
15:16:03
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumble* are you supposed to put Cargo.lock in gitignore?15:16:16
@k900:0upti.meK900Generally no15:16:23
@k900:0upti.meK900Also holy shit is that overengineered15:17:33
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumblewhy are most of the things i decide to compile myself, aways have a weird build setup15:18:15
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumblewill i have to generate the lock file seperatly and then slide it into the build proces15:20:46
@k900:0upti.meK900I mean I would recommend not running that thing at all15:21:44
@k900:0upti.meK900But that's probably not the answer you're looking for15:21:52
@k900:0upti.meK900But there are definitely better ways to do whatever the fuck that's doing15:22:02
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumblei could do that if there were other projects that do the same thing perhaps15:23:57

@ralith:ralith.comRalithI think something bazel-ish is absolutely necessarily the way forwards in the long run, leaning a bit more heavily into hermeticity and hopefully decrufted03:41:51
@ralith:ralith.comRalithI hoped buck2 would be this but meta dgaf about external users03:42:13
@ralith:ralith.comRalithfingers crossed for https://vixen.rs/03:42:19
@ralith:ralith.comRalithin the meantime if you need to actually get some work done, bazel is Fine if you take care. I think it's less idiosyncratic than, like, Nix, though a lot easier to shoot yourself in the foot with hermeticity-wise.03:46:49
@ralith:ralith.comRalith

I think this specifically is overstated. There's a lot of folks successfully using Rust without cargo. It's some extra work, but it's typically easier than packaging stuff for nixpkgs. The rust/cargo folks have done a good job of making this friendly to automation.

Notably, it is much easier to port 99.9% of Rust crates to a new build system than to do the same for your average C/C++ project.

In reply to @tumble1999:matrix.org
i could do that if there were other projects that do the same thing perhaps
considering it leans on other programs for everything except kde compatibility im near certain there are
