GC is really quite nice. I learned about it last week when the "other" Jono mentioned it. Interestingly my first attempt to use it failed b/c my SSH key has newlines embedded in it. I was able to get a copy of GC and apply a three line patch to fix that bug and then use GC to push it and create a merge proposal. Round trip to having it reviewed and merged into trunk was less than 15 minutes. One of the reasons that bug even existed is because we don't export SSH keys via the API and Martin had to screen scrape the keys. I've contacted him and mentioned I'd like to follow up to find out what problems he may have had due to what we don't yet export in the API. I was also a bit creeped out typing my Launchpad credentials directly into this third-party application for the OAUTH dance. --bac _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
