@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveWhat would someone suggest to patching the git usage here: https://github.com/zen-browser/surfer/blob/ecd6b650f0234402976dde7e775d42aec6568406/src/commands/patches/git-patch.ts#L16-L18?13:11:15

@hexa:lossy.networkhexacan we trim that?20:24:25
@pyrox:pyrox.devdish [Fox/It/She]could probably drop the 102 and 115 aliases21:43:33
@pyrox:pyrox.devdish [Fox/It/She]same with 128 if you want21:43:46
@pyrox:pyrox.devdish [Fox/It/She]frankly i don't see a reason for the version-specific aliases, using esr or latest would be the only two reasonable choices imo21:44:12
@pyrox:pyrox.devdish [Fox/It/She]* frankly i don't see a reason for the version-specific aliases, using esr or latest would be the only two reasonable choices imo(besides daily or beta but im not sure if those are packaged)21:44:59

@whispers:catgirl.cloudwhispers [& it/fae] fwiw Mynacol opened a PR to do this for mullvad-browser. i'm rather skeptical, but i'll reference it here anyway: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/503470 23:31:27

@hexa:lossy.networkhexasource builds will always be problematic wrt fingerprinting afaik23:38:59
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa(as was mentioned on the PR already)23:39:22

@emilazy:matrix.orgemilywould require matching upstream reproducible builds (which would probably require packaging specific versions of libs/toolchains/etc. in Nixpkgs that wouldn't be great maintainability-wise)01:03:56
@vika:fireburn.ruVika (she/her) changed their profile picture.18:38:10
