[20:52:07] you haven't. it's barely over 200 MB after `git gc`. [20:52:19] 400 MB [20:52:20] * MatmaRex glares [20:52:26] Receiving objects: 100% (592788/592788), 402.44 MiB | 1.53 MiB/s, done. [20:52:27] Yeah [20:52:30] Imma phile a task [20:52:43] Couple of weeks ago [20:52:50] hmm, really? [20:52:51] (my .git in mediawiki/core is 255 MB) [20:53:05] I'll see what it's like when it finishes cloning [20:54:32] * Reedy waits for all the deltas to resolve [20:54:45] 531M .

It'd take an age for a clean mw core (about a third of the speed of that one) [20:56:17] MatmaRex: It gets no smaller for me [20:56:30] git 1.9.1 [20:57:06] try --aggressive :P [20:57:11] lol [20:57:26] 1.9.1? oh, you're on windows too [20:57:35] no, that's a 14.04 vm [20:57:45] so same as WMF would be running [20:58:02] heh, isn't 1.9.1 pretty old? [20:58:25] http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/git [20:58:34] 2.5.0 in 15.10 [20:58:41] so I guess so :P [20:59:16] (but no, really try --aggressive. it might be thinking that it's fine because it just downloaded it) [20:59:35] yeah, I'm trying it [21:00:21] I suspect jgit might be worse than old git too [21:00:23] xD [21:02:22] heh [21:02:29] yeah, we also run a super-old version of that, probably [21:02:37] because *someone* won't upgrade bloody gerrit [21:02:39] * MatmaRex glares [21:02:48] Paladox will if we ask nicely [21:02:56] He tried a while ago [21:03:16] dude, i'd totally let him at this point [21:03:39] i can endure a day or two of downtime while he tries every available option if that gets me software that doesn't suck so bad [21:03:44] just make backups first [21:04:19] We're on 2.8 [21:04:21] 2.11 is out [21:09:35] Compressing objects: 67% (399512/590940) [21:09:37] still going [21:10:10] "And all I bloody wanted to do was install MediaWiki: [21:10:46] Try cloning from github [21:10:48] :P [21:11:35] I've already cloned now :P [21:11:37] is it a lot smaller?

[22:52:17] (I haven't done any composer stuff yet) [22:53:45] Yup, just not in 1.25 [22:55:57] "Installing some external dependencies (e.g. via composer) is also required." [22:57:36] * Reedy removes "also" [22:57:41] makes no sense if the only error [22:58:01] mh, packing a fresh (full) clone of core with xz is still 261M [23:00:04] Might aswell just use 1.26, it's nearly stable, and it's not gonna be a public wiki [23:00:29] Reedy: If you want only hte latest, you can clone --depth 1 [23:40:37] ## Default skin: you can change the default skin. Use the internal symbolic [23:40:37] ## names, ie 'vector', 'monobook': [23:40:37] $wgDefaultSkin = "vector"; [23:40:42] But I had no skins installed? [23:46:21] Reedy: CLI installer or web? [23:46:25] web [23:46:32] it should have given you options... [23:46:39] oh [23:46:51] if you have no skins it picks vector as default :P [23:46:56] yeah, it's silly [23:47:16] I've also got to a situation where the created mysql user doesn't have rights to the database [23:51:20] and wtf has MW created 4 grants?
