 Randy Eckenrode | I assumed it was because of the multi-merge branch I’m on that is rebased on master and staging. | 17:23:31 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I find which commit has those changes, split them out, then drop them. | 17:23:53 |
 Sarah Clark | I do have staging-next as one of my branches | 17:24:01 |
| Sarah Clark | Is there a straightforward way of doing this? | 17:24:39 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Unfortunately, no. You my have some luck finding the Git commit doing git log <path to xxHash> then looking up the change id from that. | 17:25:55 |

| Sarah Clark | Found it. Appreciate the help. | 18:20:58 |

 theutz | As someone who hasn’t watched Apple under politics for awhile, I am curious what people think this means for the future of Apple. | 05:26:06 |
 WeetHet | Does swift-testing not work on darwin without xctest? | 09:12:53 |
| WeetHet | And also swift-corelibs-xctest? | 09:13:48 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Testing depends on Xcode stuff, so neither work, but they at least will build and link. | 10:32:15 |
| Randy Eckenrode | It may be possible to modify them to work like Linux does but on Darwin, but it’s a non-trivial change, and I don’t think upstream would accept it. | 10:55:49 |

 insipx | here's my attempt at iOS Cross Compilation: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/512100 would love feedback on if i'm going in the right direction. haven't started on any "prebuilt" stuff, but with that stack i'm able to cross-compile all libxmtp ios libraries for x86_64-darwin,aarch64-darwin, and iphone64 + iphone64-simulator targets using xcode 26.3. I wasn't able to get all of propagate-inputs.nix working for the cross compile but that's what i'm currently working through to see if it results in less churn upstream of the package changes. so far getting that working looks like it may require some small hacky-ish patches to libresolv and copyfile packages | 14:30:21 |

 nasso | idk if i did an oopsie but i have 2 users on my machine and sometimes i can't darwin-rebuild switch from one of them (something something "need permissions to update applications" something something "if you didn't get a notification go to settings -> privacy & security -> ...")like, i dont get the notification, and the system settings seem fine... ...but then i switched to the other user and... oh! a notification! ...what?? and i can darwin-rebuild switch from that other user....is this a known/common issue? | 09:48:49 |
| nasso | it only happens sometimes for some reason | 09:48:59 |
