 lovesegfault | the bikeshedding needed is on that isArchiveBased() name, idk what else to call it or if that's good | 03:54:37 |
 getchoo | opened https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer/pull/49 so we can use builds with the previous installer fix in nix's main ci | 05:13:58 |
| getchoo | it does this by using action artifacts instead of the cache, and in the process of doing that, i ended up de-duplicating the small mess of workflow files | 05:17:21 |

 Mic92 | getchoo: where you able to run https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer/blob/main/assemble_installer.py btw? | 10:59:48 |
| lovesegfault | Nice | 18:56:51 |
| lovesegfault | why do we have this rev and lastModified stuff in fetchTree? | 19:15:53 |
| lovesegfault | it feels to me (naively) really weird that narHash is not sufficient to say "I already have this" reproducibly | 19:16:36 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | I lack the full context why it's there in the first place. As Eelco mentions here https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/14138#pullrequestreview-3293258649 we can probably treat the fetchTarball as final at least. | 19:29:05 |
| lovesegfault | yeah, I'm working on that right now | 19:29:26 |
| lovesegfault | it's also weird to me that I can't explicitly set lastModified for a fetchTree { type = "tarball"; } and make it final | 19:30:00 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | lovesegfault, Mic92 https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/14142. I think that was just an small oversight, right? | 20:14:42 |
| lovesegfault | btw Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) are we clear to merge the aws-crt-cpp changes? I've rebased the other work on top of it and made sure it all still works | 20:16:09 |
| lovesegfault | whoops, yes! | 20:16:54 |
