All, A little earlier, I accidentally pushed a lot of branches to nixpkgs and subsequently removed them again.
I *believe* that what happened was this: a) I have a script that descends into a directory containing all the repositories that I normally work on and pushes all local branches to "origin" to ensure that work done on local branches is available on both the work desktop and laptop. b) My work desktop had a kernel panic during a reboot y'day c) My local nixpkgs clone ended up getting corrupted (in addition to a few other repos) to the point where I couldn't even do "git status" (btrfs doesn't seem to like uncontrolled reboots...) d) I moved my nixpkgs clone to "nixpkgs.broken" and re-cloned from github e) Then I ran the sync script which eventually got to "nixpkgs.broken".... So I think what happened was that with the corrupted git repository, git ended up pushing to "upstream" instead of "origin" and this is how we suddenly got about 45 extra branches on nixpkgs. I very sorry about the noise. Should anybody find themselves in Singapore, let me buy you beer. -- Regards, Peter _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
