@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusFYI, it's easier to reach out for development discussions over zulip.lix.systems ; if you plan to contribute more actively, I recommend joining it :)13:09:34
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her)i've already made an account for it (because for some reason i couldn't join the matrix spaces before), but i'm not too good in more formal environments (at least to me zulip feels more formal) ;-; and i think the amount of things i can contribute given my skillset is not gonna be very high, especially given the time constraints i'll be in soon enough x)13:11:46
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her)anyway, i hesitated doing that this time, but i'll do it next time then :)13:12:16
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her)* anyway, i hesitated doing that this time, but i'll do it next time then, thanks for the clarification :)13:12:22
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi'd say zulip is meant to make conversations more structured to help us to help you or help yourselves follow what you care about on a development level13:15:46
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(sure, it's less tolerant of offtopics tangents but that's a feature :P)13:16:01
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusbut no problem, this was just an invitation13:17:07
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her)i saw on the wiki you were talking about maybe retiring the matrix anyway given the infrastructure problems with it (though i'd be sad to see it go given my reasons above), so i guess i might have to get used to zulip at some point :p13:17:40
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesAs per the recent meeting on this, Matrix will stay with a slightly reduced channel list13:39:22
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her) (i wasn't sure what zulip channel would be best for this ;-;) is there anyway to re-launch the CI for a CL? i'm pretty sure the devShell and clang-tidy failures are just flaky ci, especially given the error messages and the fact that other pipelines (incl. on the same platform) were completely fine.
the contributing wiki for the ci says "just login to restart the build" but i don't have the access level for it.

Can’t you force-push an amended commit without any diff? That should do the trick I think
22:38:50
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her) nah, that's what i did and it noticed that no code actually changed so it didn't re-run it 22:39:55

You can get permissions if you ask, though I forgot where to ask 🙃

Code changes are required for that
23:11:32
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusThe CI is smart (still dumb) :p23:11:42

Change one character and change back works?
23:12:04
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)Or does the source hash get memoised? (Just curious)23:12:43
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusGerrit understands the kinds of delta a patchset23:14:19
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusA NO_CODE_CHANGE won't trigger CI23:14:35
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusChanging a character will trigger CI, yes23:14:47

I restate my position here that retriggering CI builds should not be a gated permission and instead be accessible to all logged-in users
23:17:53
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her)if you can't remember i can just change the release notes slightly, that should be enough x)23:18:19
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (she/her)* if you can't remember i can just change the release notes slightly, that should be enough x) edit: aaand it's pushed & restarted, thx folks23:20:15

I did not buy the Buildkite company yet alas
23:20:31
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(and I am not sure that a bot would make things more discoverable but maybe, not sure)23:21:50
@delroth:delroth.netdelrothCI failure UI on the gerrit side could include instructions on how to retrigger via bot23:22:39
@delroth:delroth.netdelroth(and I presume besadii could listen for gerrit CL comments, for example?)23:23:03
