@emilazy:matrix.orgemily raitobezarius: do you expect buildDirOverride to be used elsewhere in future? it is currently set and consumed only in one function and all the uses/sets are NOPs 17:39:20
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyeah17:39:39
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyis the idea that it will be set from outside the worker? or only consumed outside of it?17:40:11
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI am having trouble following the intent17:40:16
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyit's also used inconsistently already17:43:12
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius
In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
is the idea that it will be set from outside the worker? or only consumed outside of it?
It's the idea of having a build context
18:03:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusThat can be inherited from RPC and so on18:03:43
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_it is especially interesting for when you just want flake pinning but have a giant repo and don't care about the exact contents of what is copied into the store in a repo e.g. if you are doing leaf packages or a dev shell or w/e18:14:57
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_it reduces the time for every single nix command to run by 10s+ at work18:15:15
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_or on nixpkgs18:15:18
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyput up a big stack to fix https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/913 and clean up a bunch of stuff :)21:40:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthank you!21:44:29
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius emily can you add the code owneras reviewers with the "suggest owners" button? 21:45:16
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilycan I uhh21:45:38
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilydo that for the whole stack at once?21:45:41
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyor do I have to do it for every single CL21:45:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuslet me check21:46:36
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyeah no i think you'd need to add it for every CL but we definitely need to look into something to make it easier21:47:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusit's fine, you don't have to do it i will handle this21:47:53
