[Monotone-devel] Translation status script

2007-01-23 Thread Thomas Keller
Hi all! I just wrote a little python script which shows me the translation status for monotone. For this purpose it queries the files directly via mtn cat and feeds them into msgfmt -cv. I initially thought this would be a nice addition for tracmtn (or some trac module which is included), but

[Monotone-devel] migrate caches

2007-01-23 Thread Lapo Luchini
I was wondering: any real reason db migrate doesn't do mtn db regenerate_caches automatically? Is there an use case where someone may want to migrate but not to regenerate caches? Lapo ___ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org

[Monotone-devel] Boost/GCC version problems

2007-01-23 Thread Jon Bright
Having seen a few of those segfault problems floating around recently: might it be worth adding something like the following to configure? BOOSTGCC=$(strings libboost_date_time-gcc-1_33_1.a |grep '^GCC.*GNU' |head -n 1 |cut -d ' ' -f 3) CURRENTGCC=$(gcc --version |head -n 1 |cut -d ' ' -f 3)

[Monotone-devel] Trust hooks

2007-01-23 Thread Bruce Stephens
Rather than get_revision_cert_trust and accept_testresult_change, how about two hooks corresponding to the desired operation, accept_head and accept_update, say. Where accept_head gets a revision id, branch name, and all of the certs for the revision, and says whether that revision ought to be
