Hi, as discussed on the ESC the global header move script is at:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/3367/3 and worked fine on Linux, and the plan is to execute it on master if it is building on all platforms and if there is a proper advance warning. This is that warning. ;) I rebased the change on master today only to find master not even building from scratch on Linux because of test failures. Because of that I didnt even try to set the gerrit buildbot on it, and instead used the last known good state of master (the one I pushed it the script to gerrit with), executed the move and scheduled a gerrit build agianst that: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/3465/ That build succeeds on Linux and Windows, but fails again on OSX *sigh* due to as it seems another unrelated master breakage, preventing me _again_ to check if this works on all platforms. So this has to be played into the dark unfortunately. I plan to execute the global header move on Tuesday, 2013-04-23, hoping that the weekend changes are merged on Monday and the master is in a reasonable state then. The plan is as follows: - I will rebase the script against master on 2013-04-23 1200 UTC and again execute and trigger the build on gerrit - if that succeeds, I will push'n execute the script on 2013-04-23 2000 UTC expecting it was not broken by intermediate commits - if the tinderboxes did not finish in time, I will only wait for OS X as the other platforms have been proven to work on other master states already - if that fails for reasons obviously based in the script itself, I will check if I can fix/workaround the issue or if the move needs to be postponed -- thats what we have the buildbot for - if it fails on a platform and it becomes apparent its because master was broken on that platform before, I WILL execute the move anyway. - If you broke master on a platform by the time of the move, I fully expect YOU to fix that up, even with the extra pain of the header move. tl;dr: Dont break master, but especially dont break master on 2013-04-23! Master will of course stay open for all as usual, but remember that: a/ If you have doubts of any kind, you can just push to gerrit to get a testbuild b/ Even if you do not get a testbuild, you can simply "park" your commit on gerrit to merge/cherry-pick it to master on Wednesday after the move c/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XpnKHJAok8&feature=player_detailpage#t=1399s "... people make 1-liner changes, knowing it cant POSSIBLY break, right?" "(audience giggles uncomfortably)" Please avoid doing so -- in general, but even more so on Tuesday ;) Best, Bjoern -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to projects+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/projects/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
