02:04 ala_3vo Hello #koha
02:05 ala_3vo After installing koha-common, mysql and koha-create, I encountered an error message
02:05 ala_3vo Syntax error on line 69 of /etc/koha/apache-shared.conf:
02:05 ala_3vo Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a
02:06 ala_3vo module not included in the server configuration
02:06 ala_3vo Action 'configtest' failed.
02:06 ala_3vo The Apache error log may have more information.
02:20 libsysguy ala_3vo you may need to enable mod_rewrite
02:21 libsysguy $ a2enmod rewrite
02:26 ala_3vo libsysguy: thanks that worked
02:26 libsysguy sweet, good luck
02:33 ala_3vo if I koha-create --create-db instancename another, I still have that same error.
02:33 ala_3vo why is that?
02:36 libsysguy I'm not sure ala_3vo

07:28 ala_3vo Koha instance is empty, no staff user created.

09:02 koyauni joined #koha
09:03 koyauni hi guys, anyone good with Debian dedicated servers
09:03 eythian koyauni: it depends, what's your question?
09:04 koyauni I got this unmanaged server with hetzner.de and I can not run php pages,
09:05 koyauni I say this sort of thing are so basic that a server should do these thing out of box but they say this is it take it or leave it :(
09:05 koyauni here is a sample page
09:05 koyauni http://xuwarin.org/phpinfo.php
09:05 koyauni it is Debian 6, with Apache 2, Php 5.x
09:06 koyauni and I have gone though hell putting koha on it I do not want to juet leave it
09:06 eythian "More information about this error may be available in the server error log." <-- what does that information tell you?
09:07 koyauni in /var/log/apache/
09:07 koyauni last line says
09:07 koyauni [Thu Aug 16 10:42:25 2012] [notice] Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) DAV/2 mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_python/3.3.1 Python/2.6.6 mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8o mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.1 configured -- resuming normal operations
09:08 eythian that's not the important line. The one with the error is the one you need to be looking at.
09:08 koyauni I do not see PHP resumin after restart
09:08 eythian I don't really know much about PHP
09:08 koyauni that is in the error.log
09:09 eythian Yes, but it's not an error.
09:09 eythian It's a notice.
09:09 koyauni I see this line as well
09:09 koyauni [Thu Aug 16 10:42:25 2012] [error] python_init: Python path being used '/usr/lib/python2.6/:/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-l​inux2:/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk:/usr/lib/pytho​n2.6/lib-old:/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload'.
09:10 eythian you should try the request again and see what gets added to the logs
09:10 eythian all these look like startup information.
09:10 eythian also, if this is a koha server, why do you have php and such installed on it anyway?
09:11 koyauni where is this log file
09:11 koyauni may be I look in the wrong log
09:11 eythian I don't know
09:11 eythian somewhere in /var/log/apache2 most likely
09:11 eythian do the request and see what files change
09:11 koyauni I have my page for uni with information about the library
09:12 koyauni how do you make sure in SSH command that php is runing
09:12 koyauni I an in there and I am looking at error.log
09:12 eythian I don't know, I don't use PHP much, and when I have had to, it just works.
09:13 koyauni me too, I have never seen something like this
09:13 eythian and is error.log the one that changes when you do the request that causes the error.
09:13 koyauni and this bloody server admin say this it we do not give support :(
09:13 eythian Well, that's what an "unmanaged" server means.
09:16 koyauni this is odd, nothing is add to, when I reload or reaccess the page
09:16 koyauni that you have to manage it yourself after purchase
09:17 koyauni but I just got this, it is like buying a TV and take it home, and it does not switch on
09:17 eythian are you sure you're hitting the right server, or looking in the right place for your log files? I'd have a look through your apache configuration and see if it's logging somewhere else.
09:17 koyauni so they keep telling you that is find out why
09:17 koyauni :(
09:18 koyauni these are two domains two domains I have activated on that server for now, xuwarin.org and kurdistanica.com
09:18 koyauni I can see html pages
09:19 koyauni but no script pages
09:19 mtj koyauni, you have a php problem - not a koha problem
09:19 koyauni I am in the root of the server
09:19 eythian Well, if nothing is being logged at all, then you are either looking in the wrong place for your log files, or you're accessing the wrong server (or something more unusual, but those are the common situations.)
09:20 koyauni I have koha at library.koyauniversity.org and it is installed, do not know if it is working yet
09:20 mtj (there are not many php experts in this #irc channel)
09:20 koyauni I need to get the server right before I point to it
09:21 koyauni I do not think this is PHP problem rather Debian server issue to run any script
09:21 eythian if you can't see the logs, you need to find out what's going on. To do that you need to look through your configuration. Things are pretty much always logged.
09:24 mtj koyauni, well.... whatever your problem is... its not a koha problem, yes?
09:26 mtj do you have php installed, even?
09:27 mtj ... via your systems parallels-panel admin-gui?
09:27 rangi http://xuwarin.org/   <-- what page do you see here? I see something about parallels
09:28 mtj rangi, yep, me too
09:28 koyauni that is normal HTML page server defualt
09:28 rangi thats not debian
09:29 koyauni I checked yes, php5 is on Debian
09:29 eythian yeah, that is not the normal server default for debian at all.
09:29 eythian I think you are accessing the wrong server.
09:30 koyauni no this is Debian 6 dedicated server with Plesk that is Plesk default page
09:30 mtj also, http://library.koyauniversity.org shows parellels page, not koha
09:30 mtj koyauni, no not plesk - parellels
09:30 eythian then maybe you need to be looking into your plesk configuration.
09:31 mtj ahh, parellels == plesk, sorry...
09:32 koyauni I found the bloody things
09:32 mtj koyauni, so your plesk did not install php properly
09:33 koyauni they have a setting with run PHP as FastCGI thing
09:33 koyauni I changed that to Apache mode and it worked
09:33 mtj yes, you dont have fast-cgi installed...
09:33 mtj -> http://xuwarin.org/test/fcgi/test.html
09:33 koyauni sorry guys to take you time
09:34 koyauni http://www.names.co.uk/support[…]ted_on_plesk.html
09:34 koyauni that page saved me,
09:35 koyauni so they have set up my server and put Plesk on Fastcgi without having FastCGI
09:36 koyauni do I even need this
09:36 koyauni http://davejamesmiller.com/blo[…]ebian-6-0-squeeze
09:37 eythian Not for koha you don't
09:37 eythian beyond that, I don't know
09:38 mtj koyauni, koha uses perl, not php
09:40 mtj dear #koha, is anyone using a snazzy carousel thingy on their opac?
09:41 koyauni I have installed that, I want to make sure that the server is working for all my projects before I point my domain to this new NS
09:41 mtj ... a book carousel, that is
09:44 * mtj sends the biblibre folk an email re: carousel
10:00 mtj ... but i would like to see some other examples, for improvements & ideas
10:04 eythian When you click left, it moves to the right which is confusing initially
10:04 eythian also should be mouse draggable :)
10:08 mtj yeah, i agree re: left/right
10:09 mtj ... mouse stuff in version 2 :)
10:11 mtj this carousel is quite nice too -> http://www.jacksasylum.eu/Cont[…]Flow/download.php

11:02 francharb mtj, I emailed you back on the carousel thing! ;)

11:08 mib_pzwneg joined #koha
11:09 mib_pzwneg Has anyone noticed LDAP auth seems to stop when upgraded from 3.6.x to 3.8? Or is there a subtle change in the config I am missing!?
11:10 nengard joined #koha
11:13 jcamins mib_pzwneg: I don't really know anything about LDAP, but did you look at the blog post on ByWater's blog about configuring LDAP?
11:15 mib_pzwneg jcamins: No, I will take a look. I had it configured fine on 3.6 though, so I thought if there was some substantial changes it would have been in the release notes for 3.8 and there is nothing.
11:16 jcamins I am not aware of any changes, but I use 3.6, and don't use LDAP.
11:17 jcamins Hm. There don't appear to be any further changes to the LDAP code.
11:18 jwagner joined #koha
11:19 eythian I've done a 3.4 to 3.8 upgrade, and LDAP didn't break.
11:19 mib_pzwneg Thanks jcamins. The blog doesn't offer me anything I didn't know - If I switch on debug in the Net::LDAP class I can see the binding correctly, and even the user's (trying to login) attributes get logged fine, just fails to login to Koha!
11:20 jcamins What version of 3.8?
11:21 mib_pzwneg I just pulled the latest stable from koha-community - one second I will get the exact version
11:22 mib_pzwneg 3.08.03
11:22 jcamins Okay, that's a good version to be using.
11:22 jcamins eythian: how's Konstanz?
11:23 eythian It's good. Today is getting better now that the rain stopped, too.
11:25 mtj heya francharb_lunch , thanks for the reply
11:25 mtj my carousel is using -> http://www.professorcloud.com/[…]site/carousel.htm

11:45 clrh dear develppers, in wich debian version do you program ?
11:45 clrh wheezy ?
11:45 wahanui hmmm... wheezy is testing
11:45 mtj ... ldap problem looked like a problem worthy of a bug report :/
11:45 clrh squeeze?
11:45 wahanui squeeze is 3.2.x
11:45 clrh squeeze is 6.0
11:46 mtj clrh - the stable version of debian :)
11:46 mtj ... always
11:50 eythian clrh: mostly squeeze, but I tend to build against unstable so I have advanced warning of things changing.
11:50 eythian no wahanui, squeeze is 6.0
11:50 wahanui okay, eythian.
11:51 clrh ok eythian thanks
11:51 clrh I hope your last too wekks at Marseille were cool too :)
11:51 clrh I didn't tell you goodbye!
11:52 eythian Yeah, it was good :)
11:52 eythian No, I think I you got back the work day after I finished.
11:52 jcamins I use Squeeze.
11:58 mtj but, its great to know people like eythian++ are testing koha on debian-testing, for the rest of us :)
12:04 mtj woah, awesome icons -> http://fortawesome.github.com/[…]Awesome/#examples

12:25 mtj jcamins, aah ok - sounds like we need to bump Koha to gpl3+ to use those fonts/icons...
12:28 mtj ftw, ive recently discovered some very interesting svg/vector icons too -> http://raphaeljs.com/icons

13:43 datadoctor I'm looking at the Tools > Notices editor - looks like it is much easier to edit the quick slip and print slip.
13:45 datadoctor You can add your branch information, biblio and biblioitem information (like MARC info), borrower, news and issue information to the quick slip, print slip, etc.
13:49 datadoctor I am wondering how easy it would be to add renewal information and item replacement price, as they are not in the list. Are we limited to the values that appear in the list?
13:50 datadoctor Tools > Notices > Edit Quickslip (Modify Notice)
13:54 mtj you might need to modify the sql to pull that info from other tables ( like 'reserves' table )
13:55 datadoctor Thanks. I will check that. Reserves might give me current holds.
13:55 mtj rep-price should be currently available, not sure about renewal info
13:56 datadoctor Price looks easier. We currently total the replacement prices on our quickslip, and inform the patron about how much they have saved by using the library.
13:56 datadoctor Hoping to implement that on 3.8 as well.
13:58 datadoctor For renewals, we can compare date issued with current date, and cross-check with remaining renewals. I think that will isolate today's renewals.
13:59 datadoctor If I can't deliver it through the Notices editor for the quickslip, I can probably pull the information from mysql and deliver it through the template.
13:59 datadoctor I'm thinking that's moremember-receipt.tt or printslip.tt...
14:00 datadoctor Although a lot of the information comes from Members.pm.
14:11 pastebot "nengard" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "looking for report help - is this possible? how would I get just the numbers from the isbn field?" (4 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/111
14:23 eythian http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refma[…]ng-functions.html <-- nengard, there may be something here that helps
14:24 eythian (sorry, that answer is a bit RTFM-y, but it's all I got right now :)
14:24 nengard I love the mysql manual :)
14:24 nengard and did look there, but I think this needs regex and no manual will ever help me understand that :) hehe
14:26 eythian oh, I understand regexes. If you just want the part up-to the space: s/^([^ ]*) .*$/$1/
14:27 oleonard Hey, watch your language!
14:28 eythian I don't think mysql regexes can do this
14:29 eythian they seem to be for truthiness of matching, or used as LIKE
14:29 datadoctor We are using regex to parse the last renewed date and the current date for comparison, converting to a date in the format: 20120816
14:29 eythian datadoctor: in SQL?
14:29 datadoctor In PERL
14:29 datadoctor Sorry, mixing my metaphors
14:29 eythian Yeah, this case needs SQL.
14:30 eythian nengard: I think SUBSTRING_INDEX may be helpful
14:31 nengard okay i'll take a look
14:31 eythian it'll let you grab everything before the space, anyway.
14:32 eythian as for applying the dates, I'm not sure. Probably group by the sanitised ISBN and take the max of the dates. Then test that.
14:32 eythian That might just work.
14:32 nengard thanks! I'll see what I cam come up with - the dates part I can do
14:32 nengard she wants the date added
14:32 nengard that's another field
14:34 eythian yeah, so something like select [fix up isbn] as isbn, count(*) as count, max(date_added) as max_date where max_date > <<limit>> group by isbn;
14:34 eythian with the appropriate from and joins and stuff
14:34 eythian Not sure that'll work, but it might.
14:35 datadoctor Would SELECT SUBSTRING be useful?
14:35 datadoctor for trimming the suffix out
14:35 datadoctor Oh, I see that's covered by the SUBSTRING INDEX
14:39 pastebot "nengard" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "resulting report" (5 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/112
14:39 nengard eythian, okay so this worked ? but you're right - adding the date is hard
14:39 nengard where does WHERE go when there is a HAVING
14:40 nengard something like WHERE b.datecreated between '2011-01-01' and '2012-01-10'
14:41 gbk77 joined #koha
14:42 eythian hmm, I don't know, I've not used HAVING
14:42 nengard sekjal taught me about HAVING
14:42 gmcharlt nengard: SELECT ... GROUP BY ... HAVING
14:43 nengard and can i put WHERE in there?
14:43 gmcharlt the where clause is optional, but if you need it...
14:43 gmcharlt SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ... GROUP BY ... HAVING
14:43 nengard oh!
14:43 nengard okay
14:43 eythian that makes some sense

15:14 wajasu if i want to run a single unit test, does anyone know how i would do that?
15:16 gmcharlt wahanui: prove t/Foo.t
15:16 wahanui gmcharlt: i'm not following you...
15:16 gmcharlt er,
15:17 gmcharlt wajasu: prove t/Foo.t
15:17 gmcharlt ;)
15:17 wajasu here goes.
15:17 wajasu do i have to run perl Makefile first?
15:18 gmcharlt generally speaking, no
15:19 wajasu trying prove t/db_dependent/Search.t  ...
15:21 gmcharlt wajasu: db_dependent tests require a little more setup
15:21 gmcharlt in particular, KOHA_CONF would have to be set, pointing to a database with the sample data loaded
15:21 gmcharlt and some of the non-DB-dependent tests may want to point to the stock koha-conf.xml template, e.g.
15:22 wajasu i'm trying to test bug 8649
15:22 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8649 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Needs Signoff , C4::Search needs a unit test
15:22 gmcharlt but just to suppress the "unable to locate Koha configuration file" warning
15:30 wajasu it ran will some failures, i'll fool with it a bit and wait until jcamins shows up
15:42 maximep wow, I guess I really did bug 8645 without thinking about it
15:42 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8645 normal, P5 - low, ---, pelletiermaxime, ASSIGNED , Fix background-job-progressbar.js for translations
15:43 maximep in 3.6 it was in an .inc file, so it was translatable
15:43 maximep it was moved in a js which isnt
15:43 maximep and I just copied the code -_-
15:43 jcamins Someone looking for me?
15:43 jcamins Ah, wajasu.
15:43 jcamins wajasu++
15:43 jcamins Actually, t/db_dependent/Search.t does not require a working database.
15:44 jcamins It just requires MySQL.
15:44 jcamins wajasu: what failed?

15:51 jcamins Ahh... everything.
15:52 francharb see you!
15:52 jcamins Okay, it looks like it's searching your Zebra server and not the test's.
15:53 wajasu jcamins: the first time i ran it i had less tests, then i only installed DBD::Mock and you see those results in paste
15:53 jcamins Do you have Test::MockModule?
15:54 jcamins Could you paste the output of perl t/db_dependent/Search.t?
15:54 wajasu yes. koha_perl_deps reports 0.05
15:55 wajasu ok i'll do that
15:55 jcamins I suspect I probably missed a file or two.
15:55 jcamins I shall delete my data directory and check it out again.
15:56 jcamins No, it's not that. All the files exist.
15:56 wajasu you saw my git commands.   do i need to do a git pull or fetch/merge?
15:56 jcamins No, that looked right to me.

16:00 jcamins Hrm.
16:02 jcamins So why would the test be connecting to the wrong Zebra server?
16:02 jcamins Do you have anything in t/db_dependent/data/zebra.log?
16:03 wajasu empty
16:04 jcamins Okay, so set_context isn't working.
16:04 jcamins Oh.
16:04 jcamins Geez.
16:04 jcamins This is embarrassing.
16:04 gmcharlt jcamins: I suspect that using set_context() and mocking the methods needs to be done before use_ok('C4::Seaarch')
16:04 gmcharlt plus what you just noticed ;)
16:04 jcamins gmcharlt: nah, I think the problem is the whole "jcamins" in the path name.
16:06 gmcharlt jcamins: out of curiosity, what's your platform? I'm not entirely sure that the compiled zebra indexes are portable, at least to the box I've been using
16:06 jcamins wajasu: okay, do a git pull and try again.
16:06 jcamins gmcharlt: Debian...
16:06 wahanui debian is what most people use and there are good manuals and even packages for that
16:07 gmcharlt jcamins: right, but what architecture?
16:07 jcamins I'm trying to figure that out.
16:07 gmcharlt uname -a
16:07 jcamins Thanks.
16:07 jcamins i686
16:08 jcamins So I need to do the indexing, too.
16:08 jcamins Okay, we can do that.
16:08 gmcharlt yeah
16:08 gmcharlt (box I'm using for testing is x86_64)

16:08 jcamins Are you on x86_64?
16:09 jcamins 'Cause apparently that's going to be an issue.
16:09 wajasu i'm on x86_64 deb
16:09 jcamins Right. Guess I'd better change the patch to reindex, too.
16:09 jcamins This might take a little bit...
16:09 * jcamins sighs.
16:09 jcamins I knew it was too easy.
16:10 gmcharlt jcamins: well, I think you're very close

16:11 jcamins gmcharlt: I think I can probably use rebuild_zebra -k, use the export in the test, and then index that directly with zebidx.
16:11 jcamins I hope.
16:12 jcamins Mocking the data in rebuild_zebra.pl would be... not fun.
16:12 gmcharlt jcamins: that should be close enough -- besides, it will be handy to have the actual MARC file(s) anyway
16:12 gmcharlt not to be too much of a pain, but are the records CC0 or the like?
16:13 jcamins They're the sample records from wizzyrea.
16:13 gmcharlt ok
16:14 jcamins Maybe we need a "sample data generator," which takes a bunch of records, and adds a bunch of items to them.
16:15 * jcamins does not volunteer to write it.
16:16 gmcharlt jcamins: could you do me a favor, grab the snippet of C from http://stackoverflow.com/quest[…]ian-or-big-endian
16:16 gmcharlt then do gcc test.c; ./a.out
16:16 jcamins Sure.
16:17 jcamins little-endian.
16:18 jcamins How could an x86 machine be big-endian?
16:18 gmcharlt my amd64 is also little endian
16:19 wajasu i ran it in my koha debian VM and it said little-endian
16:20 wajasu uname -a => Linux biblio 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Sun May 6 04:00:17 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
16:20 jcamins gmcharlt: bet Zebra was implemented using int rather than long.
16:21 jcamins I hate int.
16:22 jcamins Actually, I guess they'd have to use size_t, if they support little endian systems.
16:22 gmcharlt I attached an strace to the zebrasrv child process ... trying a search on my box causes it to die with a floating point exception
16:24 jcamins wajasu: I'm going to have to rebase the branch.
16:25 jcamins Well, I guess I could call it search_t2.

17:11 jcamins gmcharlt: ah, I guess you were able to figure out what was wrong?
17:11 gmcharlt jcamins: yeah, I've got the test cases working for me

17:40 gmcharlt second time ...
17:40 gmcharlt wajasu: ^^
17:41 wajasu ok
17:41 gmcharlt if that doesn't work, try deleting t/db_dependent/data/etc/koha-conf.xml before running the test again
17:44 jcamins If nothing shows up in the log, it means the fork isn't working.
17:44 jcamins (or the exec)
17:45 gmcharlt wajasu: you have /usr/bin/zebrasrv and /usr/bin/zebraidx, right?
17:45 wajasu its running

17:55 gmcharlt or in, as the case may be
17:55 wajasu killed zebra.  now zebra log shows starting zebrasrv and entering event loop
17:56 jcamins gmcharlt: that's a good point.
17:56 jcamins wajasu: the log showed that only after you ran the test, right?
17:57 wajasu it must have, what else would have started it.

17:58 jcamins That's the output you're getting?
17:58 jcamins With part of the log in the middle?
17:59 wajasu after the test, there is no zebra process running.  the zebra log doesn't show anything after :  [debug] Entering event loop.
17:59 gmcharlt jcamins: I've seen that before with the log level change I ask him to make -- I think zebrasv is spitting some of that to stderr
17:59 jcamins gmcharlt: oh, okay.
18:00 wajasu he had me change it to "all"
18:00 jcamins Right.
18:00 jcamins I didn't realize that always printed to stderr.

18:28 wajasu another idea.  jcamins, you had an issue posting a large patch.   what if you tar gzipped it.  would it be smnaller an d work?
18:28 jcamins wajasu: no, we'd still have socket problems.
18:29 wajasu with bugzila?  thats the issue?
18:31 jcamins No, the large patch wouldn't fix the socket issue you ran into.
18:40 wajasu http://www.thegeekstuff.com/20[…]x_allowed_packet/
18:40 jcamins wajasu: turns out that there was no reason for such a large patch anyway.
18:41 wajasu i wondered why.
18:41 jcamins wajasu: I was trying to eliminate the need to reindex every time you run the test suite.
18:41 jcamins No dice.
18:42 wajasu is that the initial delay before output?
18:42 jcamins Yup.
18:43 jcamins Well, there's a delay for installing files, then a much longer delay for indexing.
18:43 gmcharlt jcamins: wajasu: I've pushed a follow up to my branch
18:45 wajasu pulled it. it ran
18:45 gmcharlt and from your sshfs clone, in particular?

18:46 wajasu whats up with that
18:46 jcamins wajasu: I'm not sure, actually.
18:46 gmcharlt just a minor warning
18:48 jcamins Works great.
18:48 jcamins gmcharlt++
18:49 gmcharlt wajasu: jcamins: I've pushed to a new branch called bug8649_signed_off
18:49 gmcharlt that includes a follow-up to quiet that warning
18:49 gmcharlt also includes my signoffs
18:49 gmcharlt wajasu: I'd appreciate it if you used that branch for generating your own signoffs
18:51 jcamins Thanks!
18:52 gmcharlt as far as the issue of dealing with patches that are too big to attach... I suggest just putting in a pull request instead
18:53 jcamins I also do that for the overly complex patches like bug 2060.

18:53 gmcharlt we could borrow an idea from the Evergreen project and set up a working Git repo that on git.k-c.org that anybody could push to
18:53 jcamins Oooh.
18:53 jcamins I like that idea.
18:53 gmcharlt if folks would prefer to avoid too much scattering about on github or gitorious
18:54 jcamins I don't mind having a dozen remotes, but it seems to me that would be helpful for developers who are newish, and maybe aren't 100% clear on setting up their own public repos.
18:55 wajasu so you want me to pull from bug8649_signed_off ,  run passing tests, then signoff referring to gmchart's git repo branch?

18:59 jcamins wajasu: do you have a public repo?

19:31 wahanui morning is a state of mind. or whenever the cat wants breakfast.
19:31 wajasu afternoon
19:31 jcamins wajasu: right.
19:31 jcamins Sorry, didn't see the question earlier.
19:35 wajasu I'm going to try http://stackoverflow.com/quest[…]-git-format-patch
19:35 wajasu if thats ok.
19:35 jcamins We don't want to squash them all because gmcharlt wrote some of the patches.
19:36 wajasu so you want them able to pick and choose?
19:36 jcamins No, but it's important for history.
19:36 jcamins Oh, you can use this: git format-patch master --stdout > my_new_patch.diff
19:37 rangi Stealing authorship is bad mmmkay
19:38 jcamins Also, squashing patches is one of rangi's pet peeves. :)
19:38 rangi Yes yes it is
19:38 wajasu i'm just trying to help the push master :)
19:39 wajasu master pusher
19:40 rangi Seriously tho history is important, and knowing who authored code too
19:40 rangi For all sorts of legal reasons
19:40 wajasu i won't squash.
19:40 rangi Cool
19:41 rangi Squashing a series from one person is different
19:41 rangi But mixing gets messy

20:41 wajasu rangi: after git amending each with [SIGNED-OFF] prefixing each 1st line, i ran format-patch -s origin/master and only the last one has has SIGNED-OFF in prefix.  is that OK?
20:42 rangi as long as the they have the signoff in the patch the subject line doesnt really matter
20:42 drojf joined #koha
20:42 wajasu it also generated 6 patches instead of 5. so they also have [PATCH 1 of 6]  though i am only uploading 2-6.  is tht ok.
20:43 rangi thats fine
20:43 rangi you can turn that off by -N for future reference
20:43 wajasu good to know.
