Alyssa Ross | I can fix db for Linux LLVM with "CFLAGS=-std=gnu17" "CXXFLAGS=" in configureFlags. | 09:16:17 |
Alyssa Ross | If you don't pass CXXFLAGS it defaults it to CFLAGS. | 09:16:31 |
Alyssa Ross | So I think I'll recommend people just always do that? | 09:23:47 |
Alyssa Ross | Or, well, I'll tell them to always do CFLAGS in configureFlags and CXXFLAGS as well if necessary. | 09:24:13 |
Alyssa Ross | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/511329 | 09:34:10 |
Alyssa Ross | 92 people pinged | 09:34:27 |
Alyssa Ross | feel free to edit | 09:35:16 |
Alyssa Ross | vcunat PRs are coming in! | 10:22:12 |
Alyssa Ross | I guess a couple of thousand Linux rebuilds are acceptable if we're going to be blocked on this for a bit anyway? | 10:26:11 |
K900 | Probably | 10:26:42 |
Alyssa Ross | Alright, will merge https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/511342 then | 10:27:02 |
K900 | I have to say though this is a great idea and we should be doing more of this | 10:28:01 |
Alyssa Ross | It has worked every time I've done it so far | 10:28:11 |
Alyssa Ross | It's great for new contributors too | 10:28:22 |
K900 | Channeling this community's love for checklists into actually productive work is something we're bad at | 10:28:24 |
Alyssa Ross | Yeah I keep saying this | 10:29:30 |
Alyssa Ross | It's fundamentally an asset that needs to be directed. | 10:29:48 |
Alyssa Ross | Few communities are fortunate enough to have access to this sort of labour force! | 10:31:21 |
tfc | oh my god i think i force-pushed to staging-nixos, can someone please check and help me revert if i am right?
| 17:12:24 |
tfc | normally i am cautious where i push (only my fork) but i also thought i could not even forcepush to anything in nixos/nixpkgs? | 17:13:50 |
leona | force push to staging-nixos should not be possible when the ruleset in nixos/org is still correct | 17:14:45 |
tfc | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commits/staging-nixos/ this contains my latest commit from 12 minutes ago. this should not be there without going through a PR (which i planned to open) | 17:15:47 |
tfc | i don't want to force-push again what i thing would be correct there without having someone else look and check first to not f*** it up more. | 17:16:15 |
tfc | * i don't want to force-push again what i think would be correct there without having someone else look and check first to not f*** it up more. | 17:16:23 |
leona | just pushing without PR is different than force pushing. I don't see any other PRs merged since them, but also don't have access to the logs afaik | 17:16:44 |
Vladimír Čunát | I think you just pushed a single commit directly on top. | 17:17:01 |
hexa | I just fetched and it was fast-forward for me | 17:17:24 |
leona | yes, it was a simple push: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/activity?ref=staging-nixos | 17:17:38 |
tfc | ok that's better than changing the history with a force-push but still not great. thank you for confirming that the damage is limited | 17:18:36 |
ma27 | fwiw everything staging should be catched by https://github.com/NixOS/org/blob/main/rulesets/nixpkgs/no-force-push.json#L17
so same rules as for all the other staging branches I believe?
revert will have to do someone else in here, currently in a train and thus limited in terms of things I can do. | 17:19:54 |
