 lukegb (he/him) | especially if it's just a json file read off master | 13:36:42 |
 andi- | I was more thinking about implementing the same codeowner format that GitHub already users | 13:42:29 |
| andi- | That would allow us to overcome the shortcomings of GitHubs implementation while only maintaining one file. | 13:42:51 |
| andi- | I know that @piegames:matrix.org has run into that issue lately. | 13:43:51 |
| andi- | (now would be a nice time to throw an invite to the channel to that person...) | 13:44:10 |
 Sandro | https://matrix.to/#/#ofborg:nixos.org | 13:45:20 |
 cole-h | Redeploying for every change isn't really a hassle ;)
That said, I think using the tag config inside Nixpkgs itself is a good idea. | 16:05:29 |
 Alyssa Ross | I had a WIP branch for that | 16:06:22 |
| Alyssa Ross | oh, think I deleted it though | 16:06:54 |
| Sandro | do you have a ref? maybe github didn't delete it yet | 16:31:23 |
| Alyssa Ross | don't think I pushed it | 16:32:11 |
| Alyssa Ross | pretty sure it's gone -- I did have a look | 16:32:18 |
| cole-h | Probably wasn't pushed :P | 16:32:19 |
| Alyssa Ross | I don't think it was all that much work anyway so no great loss | 16:32:28 |
| Alyssa Ross | like, I managed to work it out having never touched OfBorg before | 16:32:47 |
| Alyssa Ross | so it couldn't have been very hard | 16:32:58 |
| cole-h | Maybe you're just that smart ;) | 16:34:00 |
| Alyssa Ross | I don't think so :) | 16:34:16 |
| cole-h | (I do) | 16:34:28 |
| cole-h | But regardless! It is something I want to tackle. | 16:34:43 |
| cole-h | ...eventually. The week ahead of me is very, very busy, so probably gonna take some time to get to it... | 16:35:11 |
|  philipp joined the room. | 21:04:21 |

| andi- | grahamc (he/him) / cole-h : any opinions about adding codeowners functionality to ofBorg? The rational is that codeowners currently don't work for groups and maintainers as those need write access to be pinged on changes to specific parts of the repository. | 11:00:57 |
 @grahamc:nixos.org | sgtm | 11:04:40 |
| andi- | Alright, I'll invest a bit more time on this then. | 11:05:21 |
| andi- | The GitHub documentation states that they implement codeowners much like gitignore but then they have contradicting examples in their documentation... Our CODEOWNERS file is actually like a gitignore file so I assume their docs are wrong... | 14:38:11 |
| Sandro | Does that mean it supports ! for negating filters? | 15:29:12 |
| andi- | I haven't tried if it does that I have just seen that it contradicts with the realworld usage.. | 15:30:05 |
| andi- | e.g. gitignore specifies foo/bar/ will match /foo/bar but not /a/foo/bar but that is what they say in their docs :D | 15:30:34 |
| andi- | Given that they list ! as one of the explicit exceptions I don't think it will work.. | 15:32:54 |
