atemu12 | Though as I said, you can run updates without any local mirror | 11:53:21 |
atemu12 | Local mirrors are just a lot more convenient for hacking on the scripts | 11:53:44 |
raitobezarius | I tried without any local mirrors | 11:55:35 |
raitobezarius | It failed utterly | 11:55:38 |
atemu12 | In what way? | 11:55:46 |
raitobezarius | Maybe also I should not upgrade the 3 at the same time | 11:55:49 |
raitobezarius | In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org In what way? Rate limitation or connection reset by peers? | 11:55:56 |
atemu12 | Oh yeah, Google will rate limit you after running it two or three times | 11:56:06 |
atemu12 | googlesource.com that is | 11:56:35 |
raitobezarius | but I think I was spamming too much | 11:57:01 |
raitobezarius | How long does it take for you to run the update without mirror? | 11:57:18 |
raitobezarius | Can you run the update with a partial mirror ? | 11:57:24 |
atemu12 | Yup, running three at the same time will do that. Still in my footsteps I see ;D | 11:57:26 |
raitobezarius | :DDDDDDDDD | 11:57:33 |
raitobezarius | Atemuuuuuuuuu | 11:57:36 |
raitobezarius | Give me the KNOWLEDGE | 11:57:38 |
atemu12 | :D | 11:57:42 |
raitobezarius | (also you were not at camp when with Linux Hackerman we wanted to do it) | 11:57:49 |
atemu12 | Sorry, busy with life and stuff | 11:58:07 |
atemu12 | We'll see each other at NixCon ;) | 11:58:20 |
atemu12 | So for updating my setup is that I have local mirrors for everything, including TheMuppets and the-muppets | 11:58:57 |
atemu12 | You will need to do a "complete" mirror; as in no additional flags | 12:00:13 |
atemu12 | I don't know what heuristics repo uses but it won't actually fetch everything by default, only relevant branches | 12:00:42 |
atemu12 | That's the best you can do | 12:00:52 |
atemu12 | I'd highly recommend you only update the version of LOS you actually care about | 12:01:24 |
atemu12 | Actually, if all you care about is one device, you could probably hack up the metadata updater to only save metadata for that one device | 12:01:47 |
atemu12 | That would make updates pretty damn quick because you'd only need to run the repo fetcher and then a handful of device dirs for your device | 12:02:26 |
atemu12 | Saves you from all the trouble of needing to cater to inconsistent device/vendor repo namings | 12:02:48 |
atemu12 | That didn't sit right with me, so I try to keep the hacks up to date | 12:03:14 |
raitobezarius | What is TheMuppets? | 12:03:25 |
