* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: lol
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: hello!
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: hi
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: Hi!
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: a jumping bamboo plant
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: Kopilo Hallard makes a sandcastle with his hands
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Hiya Which!
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Hi Dahlia, Enkidu :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: of course Dzonatas we can never be sure of gender here though :p
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: Hi :)
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Hi Elb!
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: jello Which, Enkidu
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: hello even lol
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: yello!
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: hello lindens and dinovas and such
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: Eunich... ok so... SL isn't being fair when it only allows male or female... we need EUNICH too
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: OK, let's see, why did the shiny new Imprudence 1.2.0 release fail to even boot ... both betas were better than that!
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: I kinda thought that the ken-doll male *was* a eunuch
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: hi everyone
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: never heard his voice, so could not tell lol
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: just not prepared, which.... but with hope
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: How goes Enki?
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: pretty good!
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Latif, you're a cloud to me. Everyone else rezzed immediately
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: I see Latif
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: i was wondering if you had a token "i get to annoy residents this month" that passes around linden lab as a badge of honour lol?
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: and collosus won this month?
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Everyone else see Latif too?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: la-who?
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: I see you now Latif
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: yes I see latif
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: Kopilo Hallard sees latif
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: i guess Colossus Linden, won the honour for this month :P
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Socrates was here briefly
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: orly? I'm sitting right behind colossus, what should I throw at him?
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: something hard and heavy
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: lead kitten?
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Which: I think Cyn passed him the booby stick from last month. Just snatch it away and throw it out the window :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: for charging $L99 to list opensource scripts and stuff on xstreet
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Latif, without an alternative site for freebies, which is what really gets me
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: and claiming that it cost $5USD a year to keep one db entry lol
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: ha ha ha, that's just what we charge him for his database rows :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: xD
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: i have two freebies on Xstreet and now Colossus want me to pay $10 USD a year for that, that's beyond nicke & diming
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: even for Linden Lab lol
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: "more like five and ten dollaring"
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: hah.....well I don't know much about that policy change but I'll pass the feedback along
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: I'll probably be pulling my items, I dont get frequent enough sales
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: while charging for resources being used does have some justification... yeah
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: pass it in a form of a phone book dropped on his head, perhaps that will wake him up lol
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: What gets me is the complete misrepresentation of what freebies represent in SL. Jeez, that was so wrong. I find it hard to believe he passed it through anyone else in LL.
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Latif, a lot of it is about reducing the number of items on XStreetSL, so it's not exactly a side-effect. Howeever, lack of a replacement is fairly dumb IMHO
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: I won't be listing items on xstreet if it goes ahead
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: I'll list on apez, simple cost differences
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: I'd think being able to conveniently access items to buy would pay for itsself in residents coming back to SL
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: Does XStreetSL have a facebook plugin?
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Anyone got the URL of that blog post?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: well I shot him with a nerf gun, if that makes you happy
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: https://blogs.secondlife.com/community/commerce/blog/2009/11/18/roadmap--managing-freebies-on-xstreet-sl
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Tnx Xu
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: this may escalate into a full out war
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: yeah, our search engine sucks, lets fix it buy charging opesource and freebie people out... in related news, google decided to remove clutter from the web by giving up on their search engine and licensed the revolutionary new method from linden lab that removes indexing of free sites because of all the searh result clutter wikipedia was causing. from now on, only rupert murdochs behind paywal sites will be indexed
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: how many nerf darts = 1 lead kitten?
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: np Morgaine. And Which, I think you just made about 90% of the SL population's day with your nerf gun :)
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: heh
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: happy to contribute to mayhem
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: lol
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: we're going to make a killing on all that google traffic!
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: xD
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: I'm mostly upset that Colossus and Pink linden try to insult our intelligence claiming that they need $5USD a year to cover a cost of listing...
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: well, its good in that its a new venue compared to the usual bank on ad-sense
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Latif is it listing, or bandwidth & server maintenance? Storage is easy, keeping it somewhere people can get to reliably trickier....
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Xugu Madison is going to be quiet while she isn't on too many hitlists....
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: Xugu, 5 million usd cost of running a server with 1 million listings? give me a break
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: lol
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: theres supposed to be a certain economy of scale with servers and itsy bitsy bits of data
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: or give a million and i will do it, and you get to save 80%
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: It's this line that annoyed me ... "Listings for free items will now be treated as a marketing/promotional tool". It completely misses the point of free items for encouraging new recruits, for teaching developers, for supporting the community in general, and as a matter of principle for the open source / Creative commons community. It's just so completely wrong and blinkered.
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: maybe the concern is spam from free items, not that they are free
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: I learned initially from a few free scripts and items
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: i swear, they play this game, who gets to annoy resi's most this month, and colossus won some internal award or something
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: so he gets to do it this month
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: possibily a 'featured' free item catalogue could reduce the spam.
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: you are only counting the charges for storage... if you sell items for actual linden, say 1L you get whammed twice
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Oh! Which! Is there any way residents can contribute to the default Library?
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: i have no other logical explanation :P
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Looked like it. I think it's a baton they pass. Cyn just finished her leg 'round the course, passed it to Colossus.
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: Xugu: not directly. it's curated and a pain in the ass
* [00:00] [[User:Aimee Trescothick|Aimee Trescothick]]: ship freebies dehydrated and shrink wrapped to save storage space? Just dunk them in sim water on delivery
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Please don't stand anywhere near Colossus when he looks ready to pass the baton again!
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: but certainly new stuff gets into the library on occasion
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: Dahlia Trimble wonders if anyone else is working on http based viewer protocols
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: who is next, which perhaps? :P is that why I'm getting these today? [http://imagebin.ca/view/Jj3nQgbQ.html]
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: novel moonlight
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Which, any idea who I could poke about adding stuff to it?
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: oops wrong window :/
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Dahlia: VWRAP :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: Latif Khalifa wonders what Which is going to do once he gets it lol
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: Morgaine, I mean one that's actually going to be implemented ;)
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: I'll ask Xugu
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: in unrelated news, we actually made use of the new transactions page being uuids today
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: transactions page?
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: what button did you press to get transactions to fail today? :P
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: :O
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: did you press that red button again? :D
* [00:00] [[User:Morgaine Dinova|Morgaine Dinova]]: Dahlia: I think VWRAP might get implemented. What I'm not sure about is whether anyone will use it. Opensim and realXtend and Cable Beach maymake VWRAP obsolete before it's even nearing completion.
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: we made a change to the underlying db schema that might have changed sequential ids, but no one noticed because they're not sequential any more :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: the any key prolly works just as well
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: awesome
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: oh transaction ids on the account pages on the web site?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: yeah
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: L$ transaction ids
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: Dahlia Trimble doesnt look often, poor sales :/
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: ha ha ha, all I have in my history are 0 L$ purchases for that escrow demo over there
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: next, they're going to charge $L20 for looking at the page, so don't look to often :P
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: and sine group im is so overloading the systems $L100 per group im :)
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: and $5 for every new object you rez
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: >_> <_<
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: in the meanwhile you can check group chat status at [http://IsSLGroupChatStillBroken.com/] :D
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: why not just put an avater blood extractor in the library?
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: I see ID Prefix
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: yep!
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: Dahlia, you work with git, they toook a hint from there :P
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: LOL
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: heh......the group chat idea isn't half bad :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: Which Linden pipes all revenue to his alt
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: do we get a discount for praising the wisdom od dear leader, M Linden :P
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: I kinda liked the sequential reveision numbers that SVN had
* [00:00] [[User:Aimee Trescothick|Aimee Trescothick]]: Aimee Trescothick is still expecting to see a Linden Bakery opening soon, got to be money in it with all these avatars baking
* [00:00] [[User:Kopilo Hallard|Kopilo Hallard]]: mm baked goods
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: Latif Khalifa is expecting Joey "the pitbull" Linden to show up at his store offering to sell "protection" :P
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: Just hope the L$ for features doesn't slow down their implementation
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: most of my transactions are freebees lol
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: yeah I also miss sequential svn revision numbers, but then again I also don't miss waiting an hour for a checkout to finish
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: too many alsos in that sentence
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: LL™ is using git too?
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: mercurial
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: man I love unicode!
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: havent used Hg
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: there is a hg to git plugin for hg
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: get unicode consortium to make a codepoint for $L lol
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: lol
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: i've been using hg lately and it's been great
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: not too different from git really
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: yeah, git seems needlessly complicated to me, though I do like some of the things it does
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: like the change tracking across files
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: git doesn't do folder tracking, which brings back bad flashbacks frm cvs days
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: [http://hg-git.github.com/]
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: does hg do folders?
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: no
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: that irritates me too
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: what's wrong with does people
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: those
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: hg does paths rather than folders, which is essentially the same as doing folders in 99% of cases
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: the exception being committing empty folders
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: yeah
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: yeah, big exception
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: that's a better description
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: and no properties on folders either
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: if they set out to improve on svn, why go back to some cvs problems that svn has solved
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: no properties on anything
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: well.....properties in my opinion are a good concept but awful in practice
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: so we're back to .cvsignore style files poluting the source?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: I'd much rather have a dotfile that I can edit in a regular editor than some magic invisible property that no one knows how to see and doesn't merge properly
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: yeah
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: like, if only svn implemented merges for properties I'd not hate them
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: but as it is, it's not at all uncommon to end up with a tree that builds, every file is correct, but there are conflicts on some files
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: and you're all "WTF??? oh crap it's a property conflict"
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: git-pull can make it well worth not worrying about those properties
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: multiple branches instead of multiple folders
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: and to resolve the conflict you have to *check out another copy* inspect the other copy for the correct value, then manually copy that into the propedit window.....grrr
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: yeah, i do like git's branching
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: haven't tried it in hg yet
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: i imagine it's more or less the same
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: only problem I have with git is sometimes it doesnt tell me what it's doing
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: I hate that, I'm all like "who left the cover of the mayonnaise" and git is all watching tv with a guilty look on its face
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: I've made one unintended commit to opensim because of that
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: the one thing that bugs me about get is the git-amend.... it should be able to detect when a branch has been amended but not pushed... rrrr
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: what is the semantic meaning of amending something?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: how's that different than a commit?
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: an amend is like to update the previous commit, it essentially overwrites it
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: it's like git-commit-my-bad
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: ha ha ha ok that's pretty useful
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: but if one doesn't push the amended commit correctly, then the it could mess-up upstream
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: when I need to do that I do an hg rollback and then redo the commit with the change
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: hmm, i haven't been in that situation yet
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: on account of all my commits being the height of perfection
* [00:00] [[User:Latif Khalifa|Latif Khalifa]]: real programmers don't do revert or rollback
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: real programmers never need to :)
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: real programmers only commit once in an entire project :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: so true.....I, uh, heard about these features from a friend
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: but hypothetically, if i pushed a changeset upstream and wanted to roll it back, how would that work?
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: it just teaches us to make a new branch instead of an amend
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: real programmers have no need for revision control
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: once you've pushed it's permanent
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: then once the branch is perfected, then git-pull to master
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: git-push master upstream
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: I guess it's not completely permanent if you can get to the upstream repo and roll it back before anyone pulls from it
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: git-amend is for those that don't want to make a new branch
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: yeah i thought so
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: I believe that it would be possible using the mq plugin to excise commits that are in the middle of a thign
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: in the middle of a series of commits
* [00:00] [[User:HD -|HD -]]: couch sit 1: llStopAnimation: Script trying to stop animations but agent not found
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: in case you wanted to do that
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: so uh, yeah, dvcs ftw
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: tar cf - | uucp remote
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: ...so, is there a summary of all that for those of us with attention span issues? :)
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: "hg and git are fancy"
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Any recommendations on one vs the other?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: "fancy like sauerkraut"
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: we obviously prefer hg
* [00:00] [[User:Dahlia Trimble|Dahlia Trimble]]: and git is hard to learn
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: and have nothing to do with the grid APIs?
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: it'd be cool if you could use hg to version your lsl
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: FEATURE GET!
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: exposing the SL database as a filesystem for eyeryone would be trouble :-)
* [00:00] [[User:Luisa Bourgoin|Luisa Bourgoin]]: actually I just would like to get grep for scripts inside Inv.
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: how to version the already many scripts... hmmm
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: what is the unique path name... script name + date?
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: asset id wouldn't work sense it would change each commit
* [00:00] [[User:Luisa Bourgoin|Luisa Bourgoin]]: some Index (personal only) that you could add scripts too
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: the in-viewer IDE
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: personally i don't think the difference between git and hg is so dramatic that i'd say not to use one or the other
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: uh, dude, git uses PERL
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: just throwing that out there ;-)
* [00:00] [[User:Elbereth Witte|Elbereth Witte]]: and is the spawn of torvalds
* [00:00] [[User:Dzonatas Sol|Dzonatas Sol]]: perl/php has hit the end of its era
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Xugu Madison 's always wanted a revsiion controlled virtual world, so you can time travel:)
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: but yeah if I were being honest and not jokey I'd agree that they're quite close
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: it's certainly a lot more a hurdle moving from SVN to *any* DVCS than moving from one DVCS to another
* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: word

* [00:00] [[User:Enkidu Linden|Enkidu Linden]]: wr0d
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: While hg vs git seemed a bigger difference, from what I've seen so far...
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: hm but the menatl model of push/pull is quite a big change in my experience
* [00:00] [[User:Which Linden|Which Linden]]: it could be that's not representative, or that Xugu you are already mentally prepared
* [00:00] [[User:Xugu Madison|Xugu Madison]]: Ah, more a psychological leap than technical?
