[Tracker-discuss] [issue428] Patch generator and dependent feature branches

2011-11-30 Thread Martin v . Löwis

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment:

So what do you propose should roundup do here? I propose that the current 
behavior is actually correct, and that mismatches with user expectations 
should be dealt with by education.

For the patch generation to work in the expected manner, you could create one 
additional branch:

- default - pep380pure - pep380full
- default - get_opinfo - pep380full

You then submit the pep380pure branch for review, and pep380full for testing.

Alternatively, you could just do your pep380 changes on the default branch of a 
dedicated pep-380 clone; the patch generation can very well compare a clone's 
default branch with cpython's default branch.

[Tracker-discuss] [issue428] Patch generator and dependent feature branches

2011-11-24 Thread Nick Coghlan

New submission from Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com:

The diff generator seems to get confused when the most recent merge with 
default was via a different branch: http://bugs.python.org/issue11682

The pep380 branch in my BitBucket sandbox depends on the new feature in the 
get_opinfo branch, so the merge flow is currently: default-get_opinfo-pep380

(I haven't closely examined the patch I just generated, but it still didn't 
look right on an initial glance)
