* paulsher1ood wonders if we really need to specify git repos based on trove_id etc. that means a separate repo in /src/cache/gits for each trove a user interacts with...09:29
paulsher1oodis there some git weirdness that makes it unsafe to have upstream:foo as /src/cache/gits/foo, always ?09:30
KinnisonIt's more to do with the potential for lost refs09:38
Kinnisone.g. trove1's upstream:foo may have refs not present in trove2's upstream:foo09:38
Kinnisonso fetching the latter might lose content needed from the former09:38
paulsher1oodonly if gc is run, or more generally?09:39
* paulsher1ood assumes that this can't happen in the normal case - i can have multiple remotes, pull from them all, and expect not to lose stuff09:40
KinnisonMore generally10:03
KinnisonWe use mirror pulls into the morph cache10:03
KinnisonIIRC10:03
paulsher1oodcouldn't we do that first time, thereafter build on that?10:06
paulsher1oods/build on that/treat the mirror as our working base and do normal transactions on it/ ?10:07
KinnisonThe cache would quickly become overful of obsolete refs10:11
paulsher1oodare you sure?10:26
paulsher1oodis there no safe way to clean up?10:26
KinnisonThe point of the cache is to represent a copy of what is on the trove.  We could have a single git repo and use namespaces, that'd work but result in a much more complex single repo10:28
paulsher1ooddo you mean the code to do this would be more complex? i don't really believe that :-)10:29
KinnisonI'm glad you don't believe that10:30
KinnisonNow you can write a prototype10:30
Kinnison:-)10:30
paulsher1oodi already have :)10:30
KinnisonExcellent.10:30
paulsher1oodi just don't understand the deep foo here10:30
paulsher1oodso i'm checking my understanding10:30
paulsher1oodmy current dilemma is whether i really need to understand what repoaliasresolver.py is doing, or not10:31
KinnisonI see, I'm afraid I'm not off-the-top-of-my-head familiar with that and am currently engaged in writing a research program for an experimental javascript interpreter in NetSurf10:32
paulsher1oodno problem. your project sounds more fun :-)10:32
KinnisonCertainly less deep-voodoo10:32
paulsher1oodeasier question - is there any resistance to just specifying build-system: in each definition (alongside repo:, ref:), rather than having the magic of buildsystem.py?10:37
paulsher1ood(apart from it being another flag day)10:38
KinnisonMostly that last time I suggested it, I got whinged at that it was yet another thing you had to do rather than letting morph work it out for you10:38
* Kinnison can't remember who it was who whinged though10:38
straycathello13:29
rjekhi straycat 13:30
straycathello rjek :)13:35
straycati've fixed our build commands so that the system arg can be relative to your cwd within the workspace, but i think we should add some yarns so that we avoid accidentally breaking this13:35
*** zoli_ [~zoli_@linaro/zoli] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]13:38
straycati also found a very minor bug along the way, we urlparse ssh urls and i don't think that works how the author expected it to, the result is that when you morph checkout say git@git.baserock.org:baserock/baserock/definitions the dir in workspace is created as git@git.baserock.org rather than git.baserock.org. To fix this we'd probably need to start using a giturlparser or write one, I'm not sure it's worth worrying about though13:39
*** zoli_ [~zoli_@linaro/zoli] has joined #baserock13:39
straycati'll go spin some yarns now and maybe eventually get onto what i actually had planned for this weekend >.>13:40
rjek:)13:42
straycat:(14:10
* straycat discovers the tests that exist already cover this and are failing14:10
straycati must be wrong14:12
paulsher1oodKinnison: might have been me :-)14:18
straycatokay good i was wrong >.>14:20
KinnisonI think morph should detect the use of shonky rsync-style URIs and explode, deleting everything in /dev14:29
* Kinnison is slightly opinionated in this though14:29

straycatheh14:41
straycat00h10m42s 376/501: partially deploying a cluster morphology: THEN morph failed     is this normal?15:42
KinnisonOut of disk in your TMPDIR ?15:42
straycatnot likely I'm using /src/tmp as my tmpdir15:43
straycatwow, it took nearly 15 minutes to run those tests15:47
