Re: [Python-Dev] Commit changelog: issue number and merges
Le 09/05/2011 19:54, R. David Murray a écrit : No it isn't. The commit message isn't pulled into the new branch. Sorry, your terminology does not make sense. If you mean that the commit message is not reused in the new commit after the merge, it’s true. However, the commit message with the relevant information is available as part of the changesets that have been pulled and merged. The changesets are in the repository and there are pointers to them from the merge changeset, sure, but the data isn't in the checkout (that's how I understood pulled in to the new branch). No commit message is ever in the checkout, so I don’t follow you. If I do 'hg log' and search for a revno (that I got from hg annotate), the commit message describing the change is not attached to that revno, Ah, I understand your problem now. I would not object to a policy requiring to put helpful information in merge changesets commit messages, like “Merge fixes for # and #” or “Merge doc fixes” when there are no bug reports. I’m not sure about the “atomic” merge changesets idea that someone else expressed; I don’t think it would be that useful. nor as far as I know is there a tool that makes it easy to get from that revno to the explanatory commit message. That's what Victor and I are talking about. Is there a tool that fixes this problem? I tend to use graphical tools for history viewing. I like the GTK version of TortoiseHg, or failing that the graph displayed by “hg serve” if you enable the graphlog extension and use a browser with JavaScript. ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
Re: [Python-Dev] Problems with regrtest and with logging
Hi, That's right, though it's OK to provide a documented convenience API for adding handlers. I think I’ll aim for simplicity. We’ll document that we use the logger “packaging” throughout and let people use getLogger and addHandler with that. You don't necessarily need to set the level on the handler - why can you not just set it on the logger? The effect would often be the same: the logger's level is checked first, and then the handler's level. I thought that if we set the level on the logger, we would prevent third-party code to get some messages. E.g., we set level to INFO but pip uses some packaging functions and would like to get DEBUG messages.

At the moment you write a push message, your private clone does something different from the public repository (and other private clones). At the moment people read a push message, they may not have pulled the change, so that there is a difference between the repository and *their* clone. Besides the ambiguity, there is also inconsistency between writers. Hence my request for a few clarifying keystrokes when needed. -- Terry Jan Reedy ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

E.g., we set level to INFO but pip uses some packaging functions and would like to get DEBUG messages. Then pip can set the level of the packaging logger as it wishes, perhaps in response to command-line arguments for verbosity. It'd be easier for pip to do that, regardless of which handlers are attached. And pip itself might be being used, say by virtualenv. It's hard in general to say what the top-level code will be, and generally that's the code which should set the handlers. The levels set by a library for its loggers are merely defaults. Applications using the library can choose to override those levels as they wish.

[Python-Dev] py3k buffered I/O - flush() required between read/write?
Hi all, Sincere apologies for posting a question without lurking for a while first. I'm not sure whether I'm being dumb (which is very plausible) or whether this is a potential bug. I asked on comp.lang.python but responses were equivocal, so I'm following the README.txt advice and asking here. If I'm out of line, do feel free to slap me down viciously, remove me from the list, or whatever seems most appropriate. Under py3k, is it necessary to flush() a file between buffered read/write calls in order to see consistent results? I have a case under Python 3.2 (r32:88445) where I see different results depending on whether buffering is active, on Gentoo Linux and Windows Vista. Perusing the docs and PEPs I couldn't seem to find an answer; I did find bufferedio.c's comment: BufferedReader, BufferedWriter and BufferedRandom...share a single buffer...this enables interleaved reads and writes without flushing which is suggestive but I may be taking it out of context. The following is the smallest code I can conjure which demonstrates the issue I'm seeing: [code] START = 0 MID = 1 LENGTH = 4 def test(buffering): f = open(test.bin, w+b, buffering = buffering) for i in range(LENGTH): f.write(b'\x00') f.seek(MID) f.read(1) f.write(b'\x00') f.seek(MID) f.write(b'\x01') f.seek(START) f.seek(MID) print(f.read(1)) f.close() print(Buffered result: ) test(-1) print(Unbuffered result:) test(0) [end code] Output on both Gentoo and Vista is: Buffered result: b'\x00' Unbuffered result: b'\x01' I expected the results to be the same, but they aren't. The issue is reproducible with larger files provided that the constants are increased ~proportionally (START 0, MID 500, LENGTH 1000 for example). Transposing the buffered/unbuffered tests and/or using different buffer sizes for the buffered test seem have no effect. Apologies once more if I'm wasting your time. All the best, -eg. PS. By way of entirely belated introduction, I'm a UK software developer with a background mostly in C#, C++ and Lua in both real software and commercial games. In my spare time I mostly write code (curiously I don't know many developers who do; I suspect I just know the wrong people.) I perpetrated the Trizbort mapper for interactive fiction which doubtless nobody will have heard of, and with good reason. I'm toying with Python as a genuinely portable alternative to C# for my own projects, and so far loving it. ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
