that was very simple! | 13:28:55 |
| cleverca22 | now to test on the original problem..... | 13:29:09 |
| cleverca22 | [clever@amd-nixos:~/apps/vali/pcsx-redux]$ nix flake show
warning: Git tree '/home/clever/apps/vali/pcsx-redux' is dirty

| cleverca22 | it seems to entirely break things if you dont have the submodules cloned | 13:29:56 |
| cleverca22 | but if you git submodule update --init --recursive, it does seem to make progress... | 13:33:09 |
| cleverca22 | unsure how it will behave with a github: though, that will need more testing | 13:33:41 |
| cleverca22 | hmmmm, but now CI fails:
error: unexpected flake input attribute 'submodules', at /nix/store/9v6yq23xyzhciq4d6w2w4qy66mv4bfaw-source/flake.nix:8:5 | 14:40:12 |
| cleverca22 | because CI runs 2.24.9 and doesnt understand that flag | 14:41:44 |
 emily | if you can use git subtrees | 14:46:14 |
| emily | your life will be a lot easier | 14:46:19 |
| cleverca22 | problem is convincing an upstream repo to entirely change how they manage things, when i will likely never be returning as a contributor | 14:55:47 |
| cleverca22 | bumping the nix version in the github action does fix the last error | 14:56:05 |
| emily | well if they ship a flake they should probably care about flake UX | 15:01:46 |
| emily | but I guess it depends on how Nix-y the project is | 15:01:56 |
| cleverca22 | given that it refuses to build when used as a flake input (because of the above issues), i think its just one nix user, that hasnt tested things fully | 15:35:41 |
|  vidariondr set a profile picture. | 18:31:01 |
| cleverca22 | [clever@amd-nixos:~/apps/vali/PSn00bSDK-Nix]$ nix flake info
warning: 'nix flake info' is a deprecated alias for 'nix flake metadata'

| cleverca22 | emily: dang-it, lol | 21:00:51 |
| cleverca22 | git+https:// however does work | 21:08:14 |
