| @lorenzleutgeb:matrix.org left the room. | 16:37:09 |
just1602 | Thanks puck you point me toward the right thing. I had followTags = true in my git config. | 16:42:18 |
puck | yeah,. i was going to point to the config file if you didn't notice | 16:46:23 |
just1602 | That's the sad part with jj, it doesn't always rely on git, but when it does the git config still applies. | 16:49:26 |
Winter | Contrary to the release notes, we did not observe a 38 % improvement on nix search.
this should clarify that it's (presumably) referencing the Nix relnotes | 16:52:48 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | it refers to our own release notes | 16:53:44 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | i should probably update the actual number we figured out | 16:53:57 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | it went past review | 16:54:05 |
Winter | build-dir no longer defaults to temp-dir
I was under the impression that this is also true in 2.93.{1..} -- if it is, maybe make the differences between latest 2.93.z and 2.94.0 the only thing there to avoid confusion? Or is this just for greater visibility? | 16:57:00 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | yeah, i was on the edge on this one | 16:57:46 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | and i consider that repeating things is key to pedagogy | 16:57:54 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | there's extra information in the blog post around this feature | 16:58:03 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | namely two things | 16:58:04 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | (a) the Darwin fixes | 16:58:07 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | (b) the sysadmin guidance on tmpfs | 16:58:11 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | i did mark things that were already in 2.93.1 normally in the body, but the release notes are "raw" | 16:58:31 |
Winter | but the release notes are "raw"
still kinda not accurate if it's in the 2.94 relnotes bc it was in 2.93...? | 16:59:06 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | 2.94 branched off 2.93.0 | 17:00:12 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | * 2.94.0 branched off 2.93.0 | 17:00:14 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | so effectively, it's a "new" thing in the 2.94 series | 17:00:21 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | but i understand what you are trying to say | 17:00:26 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | if you have an idea on how to make this better, can you open an issue? | 17:00:34 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | but ideally, a solution would take into account this branching model or mesh with the releng process | 17:00:48 |
leona | e.g. an additional hint "We already released this as a security fix in 2.93.1"? | 17:01:49 |
leona | sorry don't have the energy today for writing a full issue and so | 17:02:02 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | just so i understand well, we are talking about the release notes right? | 17:02:07 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | no worries | 17:02:10 |
raitobezarius (DECT: 7248) | we are not releasing every day thankfully :p | 17:02:16 |
leona | yes | 17:02:17 |
leona | like you could just write this sentence in the release notes for the items that were already released | 17:02:42 |
