Re: [Geany-devel] Git switch
I cannot answer any of the questions because I also have no experience in running a git project. But what I know is that we are actually less depending on a hoster. Because of git's DVCS nature, everyone has the complete repo locally and can work offline with it. Git hosting is something for convinience (i.e. web interface for source browsing). We wouldn't actually *need* a hoster at all, but of course it would be nice (with hosting, cloning other people's repos is simplified extremely). This is one of the strong points of git. Even if the hoster is not very dependable, since the actual repo is on everyone's system, the hoster could be dead for a few days or we could switch the hoster easily without losing anything.

In fact, it is a much less critical decision which host to chose than it may seem. After creating the repository, the main developers don't have to visit the web pages of the host any more. The only thing they have to do is to push the changes to all the git hosts geany will use (it could be sourceforge, github and gitorious in parallel - it will be up to the contributors which one they'll chose [probably github or gitorious because these can host their own clones]). This can even be automated if the push is made on your own server and then propagated by some script to all the mirrors. The web pages of the host will be visited only by the contributors who want to create their own clone (and from this point they can also forget about the web interface). There are features like merge request at gitorious that notify the maintainter about the merge from a contributor, but this can be disabled so the only way the contributor will ask for merging his work will be through the mailing list and publishing url of his repository (wherever it is located). Git is a distributed VCS - it doesn't matter where the user pulls from - whether it's some host like gitorious, the official repository, or a local clone on your machine - the mirrors should just be kept up to date. And for instance if github is not officially supported and there is some github lover, nobody prevents him from pulling from the official repository and pushing to a github clone so he keeps it more or less up to date (I did the same with the current geany gitorious repository [I just don't keep it up to date, but I could of course] - there will be no difference for people if they pull from there or your official git mirror). And if you dislike one host and want to move to another one, you'll just move the repository there - all the user's local clones will be still valid, they'll just have to start pulling from a different url. So the question should rather be WHETHER to move and not WHERE to move - the latter is much less important at this point. The only thing I'd like to see is that one of the repositories makes it possible to create personal clones for external developers.

Re: [Geany-devel] Git switch
I believe I have some relevant info about github. I have a repository at github. http://www.github.com/danmar/cppcheck I used sourceforge+svn when I started cppcheck. But then I moved the code repository to github. For the code hosting I think github is really good. The code review features are really useful. It is simple to make forks. The biggest disadvantages with github is that its bug tracker is not good enough and there is no release management. * How many people contribute to one, and what hosting service do they use and what is the experience, is performance consistent and better than Sourceforge SVN, all around the world? 30 people have contributed to cppcheck according to ohloh. Most of those contributors only provide a few patches and nothing more. I would say that github has consistently better performance than sourceforge. Not just the repository but also the webpages. It has happened that github has been down but in my feeling it has just been temporary technical problems.

Re: [Geany-devel] Git switch
Sorry for any noise this post might add! Long response follows. TL;DR: Use Gitorious and Trac.

Can it be done without losing anything? I have experience with Mercurial (I manage a public repo containing several of my personal projects, and also a private repo for internal projects at work.) And while the hosting is all 'self-contained' (e.g. the public repo is hosted directly out of Apache with hgweb.cgi, and the private repo is the built-in hgweb daemon) I've grown to love the minimalism of Mercurial's gitweb style. I've also recently launched a new project on GoogleCode's hosting platform. I cannot yet comment on how well their service works. It seems it's not possible to simply clone hosted repos like with gitorious, for example. There are rather a lot of options listed here: https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitHosting Has anyone used any?

In that list, I've heard of only a few of them. I would suggest avoiding github (total personal opinion, here; awful web interface, and the network graph visualizer requires Flash, which is purely ridiculous). Both Gitorious and Savannah look great. Gitorious maintains a fairly barebones service for git hosting, and its web interface looks ok. Its shortcoming is that it doesn't integrate a tracker, so it can be difficult to link bugs with their relevant revisions in the repo (of course, you can always do that 'by hand' like you are now, but then that's one advantage of project hosting that you're missing out on!) Savannah's main interface is really weird, but they do offer *gitweb[2] directly! It also includes issue trackers, mailing lists, and other features that you can ignore if you don't need them. I'm not sure how well these features integrate with each other. It's worth noting that I don't have any actual experience with any of these services. This is just from research I've done in the past while evaluating potential VCSs/hosting services. (I ended up with Mercurial, and GoogleCode.) That said, I only want to pose the following suggestion: Pick a hosting service that encourages development. After revisiting some of these services, that only seems to be Gitorious. That clone repository button is just too good to pass up, and the merge requests feature should come in handy, as well. After a hosting service is settled on, you'll also wanta better issue tracker. (I hate the SourceForge tracker.) My suggestion here is Trac[2] with GitPlugin. If it's possible to host Trac on geany.org, you'll be set; Trac includes a sourceforge2trac.py script to import the tickets from SF. It seems reasonable to offer the source on a hosting platform like Gitorious, and hosting your own tracker that integrates with it directly. * However, gitweb does pose some troubles when it does its generating... spin for a few seconds before giving the information asked for. Pretty typical when browsing the web interface between commit logs and patches.

It would be enough if you make the GtkNotebook of the dialog accessible through GeanyMainWidgets or the GeanyProject structure (I do something similar when adding the new tab to the sidebar through sidebar_notebook in GeanyMainWidgets). But then the dialog should be created when the user opens a project (and hidden) and already be available when the project-open signal is emitted. The dialog should also be only hidden when it is closed. I haven't checked the sources so I don't know whether geany already does it this way or not.

Re: [Geany-devel] Build config dialog change
On Mon, Jun 14, 2010 at 03:20, Lex Trotman ele...@gmail.com wrote: Of course, I don't have this version in mind when posting my comments. Your current version is alright for 0.19.1. Ok thanks, as you probably can tell I'd rather move on than try to tart up what I consider to be a fundamentally bad UI. And as I explained I'm don't like UIs that save hidden changes, as will happen if you make changes to several filetypes, and having a reminder dialog all the time is annoying. Well, having the reminder is less annoying than having to close the dialog, find the file with the extension whose commands you want to edit and open the dialog again. It means no extra annoyance if you use it the same way you do now. see below for another suggestion. 2. Grouping execute and build commands together so it's clear that they are per-filetype (now I have an idea for name substitution for non-filetype - maybe filetype-independent could be clearer) Not changing for 0.19, string freeze was weeks ago. Of course, I don't expect this for 0.19. And I have one more idea - wouldn't it be better to put the contents of the set build commands dialog as a new tab in the preferences dialog? This would mean that there are only two settings dialogs - the preferences dialog for global options and project properties for the project ones. This won't change for 0.19 and as I keep saying the intention for the next version is to have a combined dialog I should have pointed out that there is no reason for the combined dialog to not be openable from several places, project, prefs, build menu. Personally I like that it can be accessed quickly from the build menu, rather than having to dig through the prefs, but as I say activating the combined dialog from multiple points is no problem. OK, here comes the idea how to make the combined dialog in a slightly different way - I find the way you propose it a bit too complicated. The key idea is that the dialog will consist of 2 tabs - one for global commands (I call the ones you call global as superglobal :-) You should use the proper terminology, you are editing the user's configuration files in ~/.config or -c , so they are called user configuration, they override the system configuration files in --prefix which would require root to edit and are overwritten when Geany is upgraded so there is no dialog to edit them. No global or ... super global ?! :-) and one for project commands. If no project is open, only the global tab appears (or no tab is displayed at all) - the contents of the tab will be the same as the current set build commands dialog. If a project is open, then there will be both tabs. In addition, after the opening the active tab will be the tab with project build commands (including the graying out for global commands). So when the user opens the dialog, he will always see the commands that are currently used. I think that in this case the overridden global commands don't have to be disabled - the user will have to click the global commands tab before so he'll know what he is editing. What do you think about this option? I'm not sure what we gain by separating the project and user settings. (using the correct terminology) From what I understand how the dialog will look like it will only display the currently used commands, correct? If so, then I expect it won't be possible to edit the user commands that have been overridden by the project commands. This will be a bit unfriendly to the user. If he decides he wants to edit the user commands, he'll have to close the project, edit the commands, and reopen the project again (if he wants to continue in his work on the project). I think the two-mode operation (no project open, project open) will be a bit confusing - in one mode you'll edit the user commands only, in the other mode you'll half edit the user commands and half the project commands, depending on what has been overridden. And the mode depends on something external from the dialog itself and it won't be apparent to the user, what it is. The two-tabs dialog would eliminate the confusion. Remember the idea with the new dialog is to have two levels, the first level simply shows a table with what the menu *does now*, that is for the current file, for each menu item in order of the menu it has: * the label, * the command, * the working directory, * where the command comes from * an edit details button which pops up a subdialog with apply, cancel, ok buttons, and fields for the things you can edit (which is where the plugin configurator and the built in one differ see below), but only for the one menu item. This makes it easy for inexperienced users to see what will happen, and they won't even have to think about filetypes Your filetype combo box would be on that subdialog and if you change the filetype whilst there are changed settings that haven't been applied you get a prompt to apply

For unopen files it should be 1 and for open files it should be the current line (this is a kind of ugly workaround to make geany to keep the current line and not to jump to the beginning of the file). Could you tell me how to reproduce the problem? It appears to work correctly here. A zero is displayed for a file open via gproject, which you never navigated into. Once you click inside the editor, use the arrows or something, that becomes non-zero. Not an issue. Aha, interesting, I wonder if this is a scintilla bug or an expected behaviour. I can add if 0 then 1 or something like that. Bookmarks with commonly used directories, for example src. I'm just not sure where to put them. I also don't think it's so much needed - first you have to expand the necessary directories, that's true, but when you continue working with the project, you see your favorites in the form of the expanded tree. I'll think about it a bit, but it's not at the top of the list of features I'd like to add. I prefer to have bookmarks, for example src and include, and avoid the entire tree as much as possible. And have an idea about them below. Apparently you find one of the best features of the plugin to be its drawback ;-) --- You are probably aware of that, but... Unless you want to really work (compile and make) with 2+ projects, [...] Ah, I forgot to start with the main ideological change (there was only a hint unless you really need 2+ projects). So then: Instead of multi-project, make gproject single-project, multi path (with the base path from Geany project). Then the base and additional paths will be displayed like the current paths for 2+ projects. With this, you'll will be able to have a /home/.../geany-testing as base project path, and several other geany trees as additonal for browsing and searching. Or a project with several main paths (Yura's), as long as there is a single build command - that's the limitation. As of the additional paths being absolute or relative, we woudn't really know if they are part of the project, and even if so, whether they are moved together with the project base path. The absolute paths look like a safe bet... But what if APs _inside_ the project tree are used as directory bookmarks? :) Obviously, they'll be relative - and so the simplest solution seems the best: let the user enter the APs as absolute or relative, and save/use them as entered. Just to make sure, do I understand correctly that the bookmarks should be subtrees of the project tree copied and put somewhere behind the project root at the top level? I think this could be done but to be able to quickly distinguish between project/external project/bookmark the sidebar should be somehow divided into three parts (e.g using separators or different color for icons or something like that). Clearly it has to be made sure that the bookmarks are not scanned for tags because the files are already scanned within the project. there could be ignored dirs for tag generation patterns Yes, having directories excluded from tag scan will be much better than any per-project or per-path options. Perpaps a check menu item in the directory right click menu? It'll be good to store these as relative I don't like the clicking idea much - for complex trees the ignored dirs would be hiding somewhere in the tree and it would be a nasty clicking exercise to find them. to their path, but that will require a real list of APs, not a single string of space-or-whatever separated entries. Well, looking at it it would be best not to have external projects - everything would get clear then - and this is probably how I'll implement it. The external dirs idea already doesn't fulfill my needs - I really need to switch between several projects each of which has the same rights as the remaining ones (header/source swapping, searching in project files and so on). But I think that your idea will integrate much better to geany's project management (only a single project open). For more open projects one should probably have more geany instances running (well, tag sharing won't be possible, I know). Unfortunately I'll have very little time to spend on implementing that in the next two months (even though the implementation looks like only one week of evening coding). But I'll definitely implement that once I have some free time left. Thanks for your ideas! Jiri
