Hi everyone. I'm experiencing really strange issues with git rn. Can anybody have a look at https://ctrlv.cz/KJlS and tell me what might be happening?
|
2019-05-01 14:40:21
|
<Urbanecm>
|
I'm out of ideas :(
|
2019-05-01 14:41:31
|
<Reedy>
|
It's not some weird .gitignore but force added file is it?
|
2019-05-01 14:42:21
|
<Urbanecm>
|
Reedy, this is my .gitignore: https://paste.ee/p/5KXVN
|
2019-05-01 14:43:11
|
<Reedy>
|
What does git add-ing the file explicitly happen
|
2019-05-01 14:43:36
|
<Urbanecm>
|
Reedy, https://ctrlv.cz/WwXv
|
2019-05-01 14:43:41
|
<Urbanecm>
|
nothing changes in git status
|
2019-05-01 14:47:48
|
<Reedy>
|
No change of file case?
|
2019-05-01 14:49:51
|
<Urbanecm>
|
Reedy, no visible change
|
2019-05-01 14:50:05
|
<Urbanecm>
|
but I _did_ change casing of file names, maybe I screwed up something
|
2019-05-01 14:50:09
|
<Urbanecm>
|
but I've no idea how and how to fix it

2019-05-01 14:55:01
|
<Reedy>
|
Urbanecm: What files did you change the case of?
|
2019-05-01 14:55:22
|
<Reedy>
|
Do they still exist on disk?
|
2019-05-01 14:55:48
|
<Urbanecm>
|
Reedy, the whole folder Statistics.Client was with lowercase s (statistics.Client)
|
2019-05-01 14:56:15
|
<Reedy>
|
That's almost certainly the problem
|
2019-05-01 14:56:16
|
<James_F>
|
Urbanecm: Are you on Windows with a case-insensitive filesystem?
|
2019-05-01 14:56:26
|
<Reedy>
|
is there still a statistics.Client and Statistics.Client on disk?
|
2019-05-01 14:56:26
|
<Urbanecm>
|
windows with linux subsystem
|
2019-05-01 14:56:38
|
<James_F>
|
Could be a case-fight.
|
2019-05-01 14:56:53
|
<Urbanecm>
|
not according to windows
|
2019-05-01 14:58:28
|
<James_F>
|
Yeah, Windows gets confused about these things.
|
2019-05-01 14:58:44
|
<mooeypoo>
|
o/
|
2019-05-01 14:59:14
|
<James_F>
|
Generally the only advice is "don't use Windows", which isn't realistic for many, sadly.
|
2019-05-01 14:59:32
|
<Urbanecm>
|
yeah...
|
2019-05-01 14:59:48
|
<Reedy>
|
lol
|
2019-05-01 14:59:56
|
<Reedy>
|
do a clean clone of the repo and use that?
|
2019-05-01 15:00:12
|
<Urbanecm>
|
I've tried that, but that didn't help
|
2019-05-01 15:00:37
|
<James_F>
|
Anyway, welcome all to the Tech Advice meeting.
|
2019-05-01 15:00:45

|
I'm here with mooeypoo to answer your questions.
|
2019-05-01 15:00:57
|
<Urbanecm>
|
anyway, managed to fix that by deleting the files and recreating them - at least the clone is clean
|
2019-05-01 15:01:05

<Urbanecm>

thanks for your help

Welcome to the Technical Advice IRC meetings everyone. We're here to answer your questions! \o/
|
2019-05-01 15:01:10
|
<James_F>
|
Be they about git and Windows, git and Linux, git and Macs, or indeed non-git issues. :-)

<mainframe98>
|
I've got a question: Is it preferred in MediaWiki to cache non-objects vs objects? I've got an instance of an object I need to cache, but from what I can deduce, that all uses serialize/unserialize.
|
2019-05-01 15:04:00
|
<James_F>
|
mainframe98: I don't know, sorry.
|
2019-05-01 15:04:39
|
<mainframe98>
|
I could also just cache the arrays that go into that class, but that would be slightly more work. It would be a little saver, as it wouldn't store any objects in the cache, but doesn't migate the issue entirely
|
2019-05-01 15:05:08
|
<mainframe98>
|
meant safer
|
2019-05-01 15:05:25
|
<James_F>
|
nods.
|
2019-05-01 15:05:33
|
<James_F>
|
I don't touch PHP caching, sorry. :-(
|
2019-05-01 15:06:28
|
<mooeypoo>
|
I'm afraid I can't answer that either, I don't know enough about this.
|
2019-05-01 15:06:50
|
<McJohn>
|
I’ve got a quick question (not about git, sorry) but who is the intended audience for Special:ApiFeatureUsage ?
|
2019-05-01 15:07:00
|
<mainframe98>
|
James_F: Alright, I'll ask again at another meeting. Thanks for answering.
|
2019-05-01 15:07:46
|
<McJohn>
|
In particular, is it more helpful to set a useragent by tool, by tool version, or more narrow, like per task in a tool?
|
2019-05-01 15:07:58
|
<James_F>
|
McJohn: The main use is for us developers in determining how much API endpoints are used and which we can switch off with less impact.
|
2019-05-01 15:10:16
|
<McJohn>
|
So, in short, not much matters as far as user agent versioning, etc
|
2019-05-01 15:10:17
|
<McJohn>
|
Thanks
|
2019-05-01 15:10:37

<James_F>
|
(E.g. if we find that action=compare is being massively used by IE6, we should go find out why.)

<miquel>
|
hello, I have started using wikidata recently and I am very impressed by its performance. I am using other SPARQL endpoints at work and those do not perform ads well as yours. I would like to learn more about your architecture and data modeling. Could somebody point me to a source with updated information? Thank you.
|
2019-05-01 15:10:58
|
<James_F>
|
Honestly, I don't think it's a very valuable thing for us to have built over the years. :-)
|
2019-05-01 15:11:40
|
<James_F>
|
miquel: Hey. The SPARQL endpoint is provided via the wikidata query service which is I believe Blazegraph-powered.
|
2019-05-01 15:12:46
|
<James_F>
|
miquel: hahttps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikidata_Query_Service/Implementations a lot of details. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/wikidata/query/rdf/+/masterhas the code

Sorry, my IRC client is eating half of my typing. :-(
|
2019-05-01 15:13:52

<James_F>

miquel: You may get some more information from people in #wikidata.

thank you James for your help :)

Still here for questions. :-)

2019-05-01 15:54:27

<lucaswerkmeister>
|
can I still ask a question?
|
2019-05-01 15:54:34
|
<Reedy>
|
nope
|
2019-05-01 15:54:36

lucaswerkmeister: Go for it. ;-)
|
2019-05-01 15:55:45
|
<lucaswerkmeister>
|
any news on Python 3.5 availability in Toolforge?
|
2019-05-01 15:55:59
|
<James_F>
|
Oh, sorry. No idea.
|
2019-05-01 15:56:07
|
<lucaswerkmeister>
|
ok, then I’ll just keep watching https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219091 I guess
|
2019-05-01 15:56:11
|
<lucaswerkmeister>
|
was worth a try
|
2019-05-01 15:56:18

<James_F>
|
Yeah.
|
2019-05-01 18:25:37

<legoktm>
|
lucaswerkmeister: py3.5 for CLI or webservices?
|
2019-05-01 18:25:46
|
<lucaswerkmeister>
|
webservices
|
2019-05-01 18:25:51

It's been around 6 weeks, it's not a blocker
|
2019-05-01 20:00:51
|
<RhinosF1>
|
Reedy, according to a report, it's got worse since the train was deployed

report?

reads
|
2019-05-01 20:05:47
|
<Reedy>
|
I see it as an annoyance, but not a train blocker
|
2019-05-01 20:07:11
|
<thcipriani>
|
the fact that it has been ongoing would seem to indicate that rolling back would have no effect
|
2019-05-01 20:07:31
|
<Reedy>
|
Not unless you go back many versions
|
2019-05-01 20:09:15
|
<RhinosF1>
|
Thcipriani, Reedy, I doubt it's rollback worthy but a look at why it's worse since the train might be in order

Well, Aaron has been dealing with it...

Reedy, Still around? https://deployment.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/User:Rhinosf1/common.js - Don't need this anymore, any chance of a deletion??
|
2019-05-01 21:30:01
|
<quiddity>
|
RhinosF1, just blank it. It's not worth the distraction-time for him to log-in and delete it. Blanked .js pages are harmless.
