[dev] Re: [qa-dev] CWS printerpullpages now ready for QA
Hi Phillip, thanks for sending this complex feature again to the QA and other projects for testing and playing ;-). It's the best way to get such important new feature well tested before integration. I have one question about the next steps. As you wrote the CWS is in state 'ready for QA' now. Is this an iteration before the known issues will be fixed in the CWS - state will change the 'new' again? Or is it planned to integrate the feature with these known issues and fix them later (when nobody declare one of the issues as stopper)?

Re: [dev] Announcement: Migration to Mercurial
Maybe I've overlooked it but I haven't seen an equivalent to svn switch URL-of-CWS-or-tag With svn I had one checkout which I switched to whatever cws or tag I wanted to build and svn switch would only download the differences between my current checkout and the target. That was fast, saved bandwidth and hard drive space (believe it or not, I have to make do with an 80GB hard disk). With Mercurial it looks like I have to clone a complete repository whenever I want to build a CWS or a tag. Could someone give me the Mercurial equivalent to the following sequence of instructions: svn co http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/trunk/ cd trunk svn switch http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/cws/blabla # Now the current directory contains the OOo sources for CWS blabla svn switch http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/tags/OOO320_m2/ # Now the current directory contains the OOo sources for milestone OOO320_m2 # NOTE: The changes from CWS blabla are NOT merged.

With Mercurial it looks like I have to clone a complete repository whenever I want to build a CWS or a tag. If you want to have it in seperate directories: Yes, but you're cloning from your local repo anyway. And when you do it as described in the wiki-pages, mercurial will use hardlinks for the clone. This is /very/ fast and also needs virtually no additional space for the repo.

Unless they have been incorporated in m2 by # the OOo developers, they are gone now from my checkout. # This is an important point. I am NOT looking for a way to merge changes from different trees. just the same as above, although then you wouldn't need to pull since the milestones would be tagged in the main repo already. hg update -C (thorw away your local changes) -r OOO320_m2) svn switch http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/trunk/ # Now my repository is exactly as it was in the beginnig (assuming no commits happened in the mean time) As mentioned in the beginning, I'm interested in a way of doing this that is fast, bandwidth-efficient and diskspace-efficient. Mercurial is way, way faster than svn in this regard. If fact with mercurial, I wouldn't bother modifying the existing tree, but just create another local clone. Remember to always clone the full repo (no -r argument), otherwise mercurial cannot use hardlinks (would be slow and takes much diskspace) ciao Christian - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org

However, to use this functionality you would need multiple heads in one repository. Since this is _not_ currently supported by releng, Well, RE doesn't need to support it anyway. One needs to be aware of it, that's all. If you're consumer only, then you don't need to take care anyway, only if you are a developer and need to commit stuff, then you should remember that you're having multiple heads and that only the one you're working on is meant to be pushed. Pushing the other ones doesn't do any harm besides wasting bandwidth on a push. you are completely on your own when doing so. If you are a not yet too confident in using hg, just use multiple repositories: It uses a bit more disc space, but will likely have break-even by not breaking your repos once. It doesn't even take more diskspace. A hg workingdir: ~3.5GB - a subversion working dir: 4,4 GB A local clone doesn't take up noteworthy diskspace - only the actual sourcefiles matter (~2.1GB) But as you got the whole repo locally anyway, throwing away those 2.1 GB to make room for the other tree is cheap. No bandwidth needed, just a little I/O on your harddisk. Again: Cloning the local repo is fast. $ hg --time clone -U OOo-tip hgclone Time: real 2.140 secs (user 0.770+0.000 sys 1.130+0.000) $ cd hgclone/ $ hg --time update -r DEV300_m61 68960 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved Time: real 59.220 secs (user 41.670+0.000 sys 7.580+0.000) $ cd .. $ time rm -rf hgclone/ real0m1.551s user0m0.100s sys 0m1.450s svn switch doesn't even come close to that. So: Don't try to force your working habits to mercurial, better try to adapt your workflow to use the benefits of mercurial. As shown, theres a way to do that. However, this local repository now contains multiple heads. Do NOT DARE to hg push --force these multiple heads to an outgoing repository or the wrath of RelEng will be upon you. You have been warned(*) ;-) ...instead just use hg push -r tip, to only push the head you're actually working on.

This is the way there is harm by adding superficial heads to an outgoing repo: - RelEng expects a cws repo to contain exactly one head on integration. They do not want to have to figure out which of multiple heads should be integrated. This is a reasonable requirement. - Thus all heads on an outgoing repository need to be merged before integration. Since all heads are merged into one and this one head will be integrated, everything on the cws will be integrated in the master. - Thus there is no way to have an scrap branch on an outgoing repo that will not be integrated in the master. The only way to get rid of unwanted experimental branches is to open a new cws, cherrypick branches over to the new cws and then delete the old cws. tl;dr: Do NOT create multiple heads in outgoing repos.

It's really a pity you don't want to come. I'm not sure to well understand what you wrote -probably my bad english- but I assume I do not want to pay for contribute : more than 310 days over 365 a year counts, you can reach me on IRC, where I help students, discuss code, work on the Education Project, and do my best to contribute, and share. That's enough for me. Now, if we (the association) did not receive anything (I mean donations) in return, it simply means that what we do is wrong, or not what the people expect, and maybe it's time to stop. For the one who have the memory, it was exactly the same last year ( OOoCon 2008, Beijin), with the difference I didn't apply.

In preparation of the conference, you often complained, that the education project did not get enough attention.

You know them all already, so, with the candidates agreement, we have shortened the introductory period and hope to start voting later this week, perhaps by Thursday. I will send the necessary information for voting later on. I have posted a wiki page that links to the candidates' brief wiki bio (I didn't see Christoph's) and also their acceptance note.[0] As well, the candidates have already been doing the necessary job of informing you, the OpenOffice.org Community, about themselves and why they want to join the Council. Feel free to ask them questions related to their goal. The candidates and the seats for which they are standing for election are described in the wiki. As well, the Election Process [1] is useful to go over, and the Council main page, which describes the CC and is current lineup, may help with understanding what we do and do not do.[2] Cheers, Louis [0] http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Community_Council/Items/Candidates_October_2009 [1] http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Community_Council/Items/Election_Process_Proposal [2] http://council.openoffice.org/#council -- Louis Suarez-Potts Community Manager OpenOffice.org
