hi guys |
11:17 |

* magnuse |
wonder briefly if DBIx::Class::Migration might be applied to our discussion of how to handle database upgrades etc, then forgets about it |
11:18 |
|
vfernandes |
it's possible to migrate only items (XML format) to one record? |
11:22 |
|
|

11:25 |

there is any tool to do bulk item import |
11:25 |
|
vfernandes |
? |
11:26 |
|
|

bulkmarcimport |
11:27 |
|
wahanui |
i guess bulkmarcimport is different perhaps, than the staged marc import scripts we patched |
11:27 |
|
cait_ |
Forget bulkmarcimport |
11:27 |
|
wahanui |
cait_: I forgot bulkmarcimport |
11:28 |
|
vfernandes |
the records are already in the database... then the client sent me some new items to add to some records |
11:28 |
|
vfernandes |
which is the easiest way to do this? |
11:30 |
|
vfernandes |
I know the biblionumber where the item will be added... maybe I can create the item directly in the database an then rebuild the marcxml of the record |
11:30 |
|
|
cait joined #koha |
11:31 |
|
cait_ |
Hmm |
11:31 |
|
cait_ |
Do you to which records they belong? |
11:31 |
|
vfernandes |
yes |
11:31 |
|
cait_ |
Reindexing should do it |
11:32 |
|
cait_ |
Rebuilding the xml |
11:33 |
|
cait_ |
In the past we created brief marc records with the items (for migrations) |
11:34 |
|
cait_ |
So not sure |
11:36 |
|
vfernandes |
AddItems from C4::Items maybe is the correct method to use |
11:37 |
|
vfernandes |
or maybe AddItemBatchFromMarc |
11:38 |
|
vfernandes |
this afternoon will see this better |
11:39 |
|
cait |
I think there is no ready to use way to do it, you will have to script something |
11:39 |
|
cait |
or generate records |
11:41 |
|
vfernandes |
do a script is not a problem :) I've already done many scripts for data migration to Koha from another systems like Aleph, Millenium, BiblioBase... |

hi #koha |

What's up #koha? |
13:59 |
|
|
kivilahtio joined #koha |
13:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
We have been gathering our software requirements specification, and one large |
13:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
issue troubling us is tha lack of support for library departments. We would |
13:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
like to define separate loan rules for the musics department than the serials |
13:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
department. Childrens area has no costs for returning late. Loan rules for the |
13:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
same material is different depending on the department. |
13:59 |
|
kivilahtio |
To alleviate this we are planning to extend the branches-functionality by |
14:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
modifying the branches-table, to contain a parent/sibling-relation. So we can |
14:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
define some libraries as departments. |
14:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
This way the departments would be like libraries, when it comes to funds, and |
14:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
loan rules etc. |
14:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
We would have to modify the OPAC-view to hide departments from libraries facet |
14:00 |
|
kivilahtio |
And modify the search queries to include departments, or just use search groups |
14:01 |
|
kivilahtio |
but search groups area a keyword mess when you have 10+ libraries in it |
14:02 |
|
jcamins_away |
kivilahtio: what's wrong with using item types? |
14:06 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: we would have to define item types for every department |
14:07 |
|
jcamins_away |
kivilahtio: but you're going to have to define the same number of circulation rules in the end, so why not use the existing code? |
14:07 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: Book for childrens department, Book for adults department |
14:08 |
|
jcamins_away |
That seems to me to be the way it works for all libraries: children's book, adult book, local history book, etc., etc. |
14:09 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: It doesn't seem to be the right way to do it |
14:09 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: we can have sam item types in many departments |
14:09 |
|
jcamins_away |
kivilahtio: I come from the school of thought that says "if it's less work and gets the job done, it's the right way to do it." |
14:09 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: and about serials, we can have them in the serials departmant, as wel las in the adults department |
14:10 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: So we would have serials department serials vs adults department serials |
14:10 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: and not everyone of our libraries has the same department |
14:10 |
|
jcamins_away |
Remember that any customizations you do have to either get into mainline Koha (which means that it can't break any existing functionality, and has to meet community standards), or you have to maintain the code. |
14:11 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins_away: That is what I want to hear. Could we do it to match community standards? |
14:11 |
|
jcamins_away |
kivilahtio: I'm sure you could. |
14:12 |
|
jcamins |
It's just additional work. |
14:12 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: Is there anybody else who would benefit for having departments? |
14:12 |
|
kivilahtio |
It is |
14:12 |
|
jcamins |
I'm sure there is. |
14:12 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: but it would make things more streamlined |
14:12 |
|
jcamins |
kivilahtio: Provided you're aware that this is going to be more work, I strongly support you adding the new feature. :) |
14:12 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: and in some cases we will run into trouble, not solvable by item types |
14:13 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: If we move to OS ILS, I already suggested we hire a project team of 4 persons for the duration of 1 year |
14:13 |
|
jcamins |
Good, so you already thought about this. |
14:13 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: To do the migration, code more functionality, make it more suitable to our standards, make localizations |
14:14 |
|
jcamins |
A lot of libraries don't think this through, and end up stuck on an old version of Koha permanently. |
14:14 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: If we go OS we definetely weant to be a part of the community |
14:14 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: reap the benefits and bear the burden |
14:16 |
|
jcamins |

Good for you! We get a lot of people who don't feel the same way, so I have a prepared speech about open source not meaning "someone else will do your work for free." :) |
14:18 |
|
jcamins |
I think the method you proposed makes sense, but I foresee problems with the circulation rules. |
14:19 |
|
jcamins |
You'll need to think very hard about how "most specific to least specific" would work in this case. |
14:20 |
|
kivilahtio |
jcamins: what I wanted to hear is that, how large a task you feel this added functionality would be? I have come to think we could do it in 1 month |
14:20 |
|
kivilahtio |
I am not looking for hard dates, just some general idea about how demanding it might be |
14:20 |
|
kivilahtio |
I mean 1 man/month of work |
14:21 |
|
jcamins |
Yes, that seems reasonable. |

However, keep in mind that it can take a while for features to get into Koha, so you'll need to maintain the code, rebasing it to work with the latest master, until it gets in. |

14:25 |

Right. |

jcamins: I think i figured out what the issue was (no pun intended). She wants the next issue publication date changed so she can set a loosely defined date |
16:00 |
|
libsysguy |
and accout for combined issues etc |
16:00 |
|
jcamins |
libsysguy: ah. Yeah, I hate combined issues. |
16:01 |
|
libsysguy |
yeah im not entirely sure how to handle that |
16:01 |
|
wizzyrea |
question - syndetics & librarything... the same thing? or different? |
16:02 |
|
libsysguy |
she said she would basically be happy is she could set a defined pattern from one year to the next |
16:05 |
|
jcamins |
wizzyrea: they're different services. |
16:05 |
|

Syndetics provides covers and reviews, I think. |
16:05 |

ltfl provides.... covers and reviews? |
16:06 |

but they are different, but both run by bowker? |
16:06 |

LTFL provides covers, reviews, and related items, I believe. |
16:06 |
|
libsysguy |
yes we use Syndetics |
16:06 |
|
wizzyrea |
this is why I am confused. |
16:06 |

so they do the same thing, in a different way, and are run by the same company |
16:06 |

this makes *perfect* sense |

hm I wonder if it would be possible to show the patron notes onthe patron detail page as well as on the checkout page |
16:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
also, we have 2 kinds of patron notes |
16:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
which I think is a bit confusing? |
16:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
there's the "messaging system" and then there is the standard edit patron -> opac/intranet note |
16:31 |
|

Time to get rid of the "old" kind? |

that is similar |

which one? |
16:36 |
|
wahanui |
i think which one is it |
16:37 |
|
edveal |
I found "Remove the textual item type description from the OPAC holdings table" But it is not the same. I have tried changing it around to try to get it to work but because the column is multiple <tr> I can't get it to do anything but remove the text. |
16:38 |

quick question using the barcode layout and I want the location which is in a&b of an items 952, so I put 952a, it comes out empty, but title and itemcallnumber did come out. Anyone know what I can use to get location? |
17:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
there might be a special name for that, sec |
17:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
I think you can try just |
17:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
location |
17:32 |
|
wahanui |
location is the Landman Library, right? |
17:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
forget location |
17:32 |
|
wahanui |
wizzyrea: I forgot location |
17:33 |
|
Shane-S |
lol, bot is funny, thank you |
17:33 |
|
wizzyrea |
yea, the bot is often funny |
17:33 |
|
wizzyrea |
because we are often funny :) |
17:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
Shane-S: I'm not *sure* that location will work, but it is the name of the field in the db where the location is kept |
17:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
so it would seem to follow that it would work. |
17:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
*but I haven't tried it* |
17:34 |
|
Shane-S |
location = blank, itemlocation maybe |
17:34 |
|
Shane-S |
let me try |
17:35 |
|
wizzyrea |
hmm no |
17:35 |
|
wizzyrea |
ping chris_n |
17:36 |
|
Shane-S |
952a = biblio not item I am guess that is why it came out blank? |
17:36 |
|
wizzyrea |
that's a bit fuzzy really - 952a is the marc field where koha keeps its item info |
17:36 |
|
|
sekjal joined #koha |
17:36 |
|
wizzyrea |
er 952 |
17:36 |
|
wizzyrea |
is |
17:36 |
|
wizzyrea |
with all of it's subfields |
17:37 |
|
wizzyrea |
a isn't location though, is it? |
17:37 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh I guess it is, sorry |
17:37 |
|
Shane-S |
on the item page the fields with location have a&b in bold in fromt of them, so it was a guess |
17:37 |
|
Shane-S |
there is nothing in the MARC/Biblio |
17:37 |
|
wizzyrea |
chris_n would know for sure |
17:37 |
|
wizzyrea |
if you can do that |
17:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
permanent_location maybe? |
17:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
the field in the db is simply "location" |
17:40 |
|
Shane-S |
ill try it :) |
17:41 |
|
wizzyrea |
location worked for me |
17:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
location = Shelving location |
17:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
is that what you're wanting |
17:42 |
|
Shane-S |
um...one second... |
17:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
or location = home branch |
17:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
or location = holding branch |
17:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
because 952a is "permanent_location" |
17:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
952c is "shelving location" |
17:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
or just "location" in the db |
17:43 |
|
Shane-S |
I want permanent |
17:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
you want the home branch then |
17:43 |
|
Shane-S |
or current |
17:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
so try |
17:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
homebranch |
17:43 |
|
wahanui |
i heard homebranch was $a, as I recall. |
17:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
or permanent_location |
17:43 |
|
Shane-S |
wahanui is a genius :) |
17:44 |
|
wizzyrea |
but try homebranch first :P |
17:44 |
|
Shane-S |
thanks wizzy, ill try homebranch |
17:45 |
|
sekjal |
Shane-S: are you looking for the building to which the item belongs, the building in which it is currently housed, or the shelf/room within the building where the item is? |
17:45 |

* wizzyrea |
didn't ask the first question |
17:45 |

wizzyrea |
the first question? |
17:45 |

Shane-S |
hokebranch worked...kinda |
17:45 |

i guess the first question is "What are you trying to do?" |
17:46 |
|
wizzyrea |
kinda? |
17:46 |
|
Shane-S |
I want its "ownership" location, which homebrand did...but in the code |
17:46 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh, you want the description? |
17:46 |
|
Shane-S |
NPSD I was hoping for the name NPSD has which is "National Park School" |
17:46 |

17:47 |
|
Shane-S |
I just wanted homebranch, and tried 952a versus keyword :P |
17:47 |
|
wizzyrea |
which I'm not sure is possible |
17:48 |
|
Shane-S |
Yeah, once it spit the code out...then I was like "darn" I need the "description" |
17:48 |
|

not at this time, no. though it would make a good enhancement to let users pick whether they want the code or the authorised value |

oh so I was on LibLime and notice version 4...I thought LibLime Koha and Koha-community were close in version |
18:59 |

or is it just a marketing number |

they version like firefox does, or something. |
19:00 |
|
jcamins |
They made up a new versioning scheme after they forked off of 3.0. |
19:00 |
|
oleonard |
Liblime Koha is based on an older version of Koha, but with a higher version number. |
19:00 |
|
oleonard |
So yeah, marketing. |
19:00 |
|
jcamins |
Or 3.1. |
19:01 |

Shane-S |
Ah, do they contribute to the community at all? |
19:01 |
|
oleonard |
Not at all anymore. |
19:01 |
|
wizzyrea |
not in the last couple of years. Occasionally you'll see someone answer a question here or on the list, but that hasn't happened in a while. |
19:01 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's not the same software, it would be hard for them |
19:02 |
|
wizzyrea |
to participate. |
19:02 |
|
jcamins |
PTFS Europe contributes, but they're a different company that shares a name with PTFS, apparently. |
19:02 |
|
oleonard |
Plus it's counter to their goal of promoting their version to the exclusion of Koha |
19:02 |

that too. |

man I can not figure out label-edit-layout.pl trying to figure out where the user-input fields like "branchcode" are processed so I can find the variables and query to the DB...so I can contribute code to my bug |
19:16 |
|
wizzyrea |
you probably want to look in C4/Labels |
19:16 |
|
wizzyrea |
(just a guess) |
19:16 |
|
jcamins |
Or C4/Labels/Something |
19:16 |
|
wizzyrea |
C4/Labels/Layout.pm |
19:16 |
|
wizzyrea |
possibly |
19:17 |
|
Shane-S |
ah okay I will have a look |
19:17 |
|
oleonard |
Shane-S: The path I take is often: 1) Identify the variable name in the template 2) Search for the variable name in the .pl file 3) Find the subroutine which is creating the data in the variable 4) Examine the subroutine in the .pm file to find out where the information came from |
19:18 |
|
wizzyrea |
wow layout.pm is uh, pretty succinct. |
19:19 |
|
jcamins |
Whoah. |
19:19 |

Shane-S would like to have the branchname available in addition to the branchcode |
19:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
which seems reasonable. |
19:21 |
|
Shane-S |
yeah...haven't opened it yet, have to find the one that takes the usercode, related to the database fields, and see if I can add in a "new" code and add some SQL |
19:21 |
|
chris_n |
952a give the branch code |
19:21 |
|
chris_n |
oh |
19:21 |
|
chris_n |
hmm |
19:21 |
|
chris_n |
I'd have to look |
19:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
actually 952a didn't - homebranch did though |
19:22 |
|

its been a looong time since I looked at labels |
19:22 |
|

952a works here for branchcode |
19:22 |

C4::Labels::Label does the grunt work of label creation |

in short, labels will work, but some fields will not be available as advertised |
19:31 |

chris_n where does it take the table structure names and extract them, ie. title, itemcallnumber, etc. is that in Labels.pm |
19:32 |

Label* |
19:34 |
|
chris_n |
it happens in the draw_label_text method of C4::Labels::Label iirc |

the exact SQL used for retrieval is at line 81 |

it can use memcached |

oh, I htought maybe you were facedesking because you flushed the cache and now it works. |
21:05 |

no...that can't be cached, as it generates a PDF |
21:06 |
|
Shane-S |
I will try another browser after my system restarts...Im doing it just to make sure... |
21:07 |

Shane-S |
if it works in mysql, and that line is what fetches all the table data and lets you use database table field name...it should work |

I like to chuck some debug code in mine to make sure my changes are being picked up, or introduce an error for a one-off check. |

so I cloned from git://git.koha-community.org/koha.git, created a repo on github with a couple of branches. origin now points to github. I added a remote called upstream for git://git.koha-community.org/koha.git. I am now pulling updates from upstream master. git pull upstream master merges with conflicts. Why are there conflicts as I made no changes from upstream. shouldn't the merge apply cleanly? |

I am @ home trying this git thing, can I make a working version from it as well? I just did git clone |
22:21 |
|
Shane-S |
Also since I am running 3.6 at work, how would I go about modifying or checking out for that version? |
22:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
sure you can, it's a bit of a different process though |
22:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
version control using git? |
22:22 |
|
wahanui |
somebody said version control using git was at http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Control_Using_Git |
22:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
really most every question is answered there |
22:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
eternalsword: I'm not sure exactly what your issue is |
22:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
but you might try a git fetch && git rebase origin |
22:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
I've had better luck with it than "git pull" |
22:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
pull = merge, rebase, well, rebases. |
22:24 |
|
eternalsword |
I've tried git pull --rebase upstream master and it freezes. I'll see if running the separate commands makes a difference. |
22:24 |
|
Shane-S |
wizzyrea: I am on that wiki, and I am down to the checkout section...and I am not sure what I should contribute/use any suggestions as I don't have a "production" system in place yet? |
22:24 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
I don't think it's freezing. |
22:24 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
I think it's taking a long time because what you have is perhaps a hugely different branch, or something like that |
22:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
you mean "doing work on koha" |
22:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
don't worry about the terminology of production |
22:25 |
|
eternalsword |
eythian_bucklame my master has no changes from upstream, so that shouldn't be the issue |
22:26 |
|
Shane-S |
wizzyrea: no no...I mean the system at work is for testing...so I am not "locked" to a version I am using yet |
22:26 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
if that were the case, then you wouldn't be seeing conflicts |
22:26 |
|
eternalsword |
thus my confusion |
22:26 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
I'd do a got log and see how it compares to git log upstream/master |
22:26 |
|
wizzyrea |
is this the branch with your changes for f1? |
22:26 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
*git |
22:27 |
|
eternalsword |
I keep the master branch the same as upstream. I do all my work on different branches, even when pushing to github. |
22:27 |
|
* wizzyrea |
is not sure |
22:27 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
that's the best way to do it. |
22:28 |
|
Shane-S |
wizzyrea: like the label and OPAC results changes I would like to contribute those, but I am not sure if I should do that on the master, or should I use a branch? |
22:29 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
always use a branch |
22:29 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
but, base that branch of master |
22:29 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
*off |
22:29 |
|
Shane-S |
that just confused me more :) |
22:29 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
I never ever modify master on any of my repos |
22:29 |
|
Shane-S |
I have no clue how this git stuff works |
22:30 |
|
Shane-S |
and the wiki is kinda assuming I know WTF git is/does and how it basically works |
22:30 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
git checkout upstream/master -B bug1234-fix-the-widget |
22:30 |
|
Shane-S |
I know how to use a text edit, backup files, and make changes...that is it |
22:30 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
creates a new branch from master |
22:30 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
git is easy in essence, but it takes a lot of messing around and being confused before you really get what's going on :) |
22:31 |
|
magnuse |
ooh, that sounds like a quote :-) |
22:31 |
|
Shane-S |
okay this is going to take more then an hour huh :P |
22:31 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
it's easier to think of in terms of tree theory, if that's your thing :) |
22:32 |
|
Shane-S |
tree theory...I think I am gonna leave...and find a new career..I know none of this |
22:32 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
haha |
22:33 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
my suggestion is to learn that git reset is your friend, and git reflog can give you the information to recover from almost any screwup. |
22:33 |
|
wizzyrea |
@quote add Eythian: git is easy in essence, but it takes a lot of messing around and being confused before you really get what's going on :) |
22:33 |

wizzyrea: The operation succeeded. Quote #191 added. |
22:33 |
|
magnuse |
thanks wizzyrea |
22:33 |
|
wizzyrea |
lol, I hadn't seen your statement |
22:33 |
|
wizzyrea |
I read it and was like "quote add!" |
22:33 |
|
Shane-S |
I can setup a windows server, install AD/DHCP/DNS/File Share, install a webserver on Ubunut (wait it does that for me now) make a site in HTML/PHP/MySQL that is about it though :D |
22:33 |
|
magnuse |
great minds... :-) |
22:34 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
well, if you're writing stuff in php, you're using version control, right? |
22:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
Shane-S: every. single. one. of. us. started out where you are |
22:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
(with git) |
22:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
which is "OMGWTFBBQ" |
22:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
<run around screaming> |
22:34 |
|
magnuse |
agrees with wizzyrea |
22:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
"it gets better" |
22:34 |
|
Shane-S |
eythian_bucklame: NO...I have a file, I back it up with .old instead of .php and make changes :D |
22:35 |
|
* wizzyrea |
used to do that |
22:35 |
|
wizzyrea |
now I use git |
22:35 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
Shane-S: hmm. You should learn git for your own sake then :) |
22:35 |
|
wizzyrea |
and I am happy. |
22:35 |
|
* Space_Librarian |
ponders the magic 8-ball to answer these questions... |
22:35 |
|
eternalsword |
stupid me. I forgot to run git fetch upstream after adding it as a remote |
22:35 |
|
* magnuse |
didn't evenb used to do that |
22:35 |
|
* wizzyrea |
suspects magnuse spent a lot of time screaming. |
22:35 |
|
Shane-S |
<-- is very guilty of live updates...hits save...then edit undo = broken...and cries |
22:36 |
|
magnuse |
well, a little |
22:36 |
|
* Space_Librarian |
agrees with wizzyrea |
22:36 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
watching a friend of mine do 'cc -o program.c program.c' made me start commiting to version control regularly |
22:36 |
|
eternalsword |
lol |
22:36 |
|
magnuse |
i assume that would overwrite the source code with the compiled program or something? |
22:37 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
magnuse: yeah |
22:37 |
|
eternalsword |
at least in that case, a decompiler should work. |
22:37 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
not really, decompilers aren't all that great. |
22:37 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
especially for a university assignment, and an all-nighter of work :) |
22:37 |
|
Shane-S |
what does upstream do? |
22:37 |
|
magnuse |
ouch |
22:37 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
(it's also a lesson to use makefiles) |
22:37 |
|
Shane-S |
its not on the wiki |
22:38 |
|
Shane-S |
in an example |
22:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
"upstream" is the main repo, or git.koha-community.org |
22:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
if the koha git were a river, your local clone is like a tributary |
22:38 |
|
* magnuse |
has make on his list of things to learn |
22:39 |
|
Shane-S |
where are the birds and bees...we have water and trees ;P |
22:39 |
|
* wizzyrea |
goes for rivers, since trees aren't your thing |
22:39 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
Shane-S: your git repo can point to a number of others. e.g. at catalyst we have our internal one (which I call origin) and the public one (which I call kc.) If I do git checkout kc/master, I have the upstream master. |
22:39 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
The names can be anything you like though, e.g. "upstream" |
22:39 |
|
* Shane-S |
just issues the dman command and see's what happens :P |
22:40 |
|
wizzyrea |
worst case? re-clone |
22:40 |
|
wizzyrea |
i mean, I think I have messed up at least 15 koha clones |
22:40 |
|
wizzyrea |
with bad git maneuvering |
22:41 |
|
eternalsword |
That's why I don't pull upstream until origin has been pushed. |
22:41 |
|
wizzyrea |
(these days I could probably get myself out of it, but a year ago? yea not so much.) |
22:43 |
|
Shane-S |
...which can not be resolved as commit..... any help |
22:43 |
|
Shane-S |
for upstream/master |
22:43 |
|
Shane-S |
git checkout upstream/master -b my-koha what I issued |
22:44 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
Shane-S: do you have a remote repo that you called "upstream" |
22:44 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
? |
22:44 |
|
wizzyrea |
I think you want git checkout -b my-koha origin |
22:44 |
|
wizzyrea |
that will check out a new branch called my-koha based on origin |
22:44 |
|
magnuse |
g'night #koha |
22:44 |

gnite magnuse |
22:44 |
|
wizzyrea |
whoa, I just realized we haven't heard a thing from kf/cait today |
22:45 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
the order isn't importent |
22:45 |
|
* wizzyrea |
wonders where she is |
22:45 |
|
* wizzyrea |
is a creature of habit |
22:45 |
|
Shane-S |
wizzyrea: worked |
22:45 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
but I always include the branch name, to make it a little less magic |
22:45 |
|
Shane-S |
says Switched to a new branch 'my-koha' |
22:45 |
|
wizzyrea |
++ win! |
22:45 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
wizzyrea: does that base off master? |
22:46 |
|
Shane-S |
so how do I mod stuff? normal text editor? |
22:46 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
because there probably isn't a branch named 'origin' |
22:46 |
|
wizzyrea |
yup |
22:46 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
I'd always say 'origin/master' then |
22:46 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
oh hey, 'git remote -v' is useful |
22:46 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
Shane-S: yeah, normal text editor |
22:47 |
|
eternalsword |
that's weird, the commit hash is different for the commit made Fri Feb 17 15:03:52 2012 +0100 between my master and upstream/master. How is that possible? |
22:47 |
|
wizzyrea |
view remotes right? |
22:47 |
|
Shane-S |
there are some git gui's should I use those? |
22:47 |
|
wizzyrea |
I never have used them. |
22:47 |
|
Shane-S |
can I don't know the command line at all |
22:47 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
Shane-S: not until you understand it from the command line :) |
22:47 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
eternalsword: if you applied it with a rebase, that might happen, maybe. |
22:47 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
eternalsword: or if any part of its history is different |
22:48 |
|
Shane-S |
can I at least use a gui editor...I hate vim and pine, and I like pico but its ctrl key crap sucks |
22:49 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
you can use any editor |
22:49 |
|
wizzyrea |
yup, any editor will work |
22:49 |
|
* wizzyrea |
always appreciates eythian's git-fu |
22:53 |
|
Shane-S |
so where do I edit my "branch"? |
22:53 |
|
Shane-S |
does it make a folder or something? |
22:53 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
Shane-S: you edit it in place |
22:54 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
git knows that you've changed things, so if you run 'git status' it'll tell you |
22:54 |
|
Shane-S |
so in the kohaclone folder |
22:54 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
yep |
22:54 |
|
Shane-S |
oh okay |
22:54 |
|
Shane-S |
and since I have all the files I take it I can build a working koha from there? (I have a document printed and remember seeing "git" in there |
22:55 |
|
wizzyrea |
yea, it's in install.(os) |
22:55 |
|
Shane-S |
okay have to try that another night :P |
22:55 |
|
Shane-S |
GF wants me there now for dinner...blowing up my phone :D |
22:56 |
|
Shane-S |
Guess I should have said 7 not 6 for pizza |
22:56 |
|
Shane-S |
thanks guys/gals...hopefully I will get there to help contribute. |
22:56 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
I actually just run from the git directory, with some apache config to make it work |
22:56 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
that way I can edit and hit refresh and see it straight away |
22:56 |
|
* wizzyrea |
too |
22:57 |
|
* Shane-S |
would like to do that as well...I might need help |
22:57 |
|
Shane-S |
as this system will be my "code" system |
22:57 |
|
Shane-S |
Its running in a Virtual Box VM |
22:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
:) we're always around. Well, some one is |
22:58 |
|
Shane-S |
I onyl have 12Gb of ram in my computer so I should be fine giving it 2Gb ;) |
22:58 |
|
wizzyrea |
uhyea |
22:58 |
|
wizzyrea |
you'll be fine :P |
22:59 |
|
Shane-S |
bye until tomorrow @ work...I am determined to get branchname working |
22:59 |
|
wizzyrea |
:) |
22:59 |
|
Shane-S |
freaking works in MySQL...so somewhere is all this OO stuff it gets lost or broken |
23:02 |
|
eternalsword |
okay, so I'm getting diffs of my current work and repatching in fresh clone from upstream. If it works, I'll overwrite my github repo with that. I remember I did do some history modifications cause I added a file to github that I didn't want public. Didn't realize that would change the hashes on the master branch too. |
23:04 |
|
eternalsword |
shouldn't have used --all. lesson learned. |
23:07 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
never use commit --all :) |
23:07 |
|
eythian_bucklame |
(for exactly that reason) |
