#09:20:23tecoripaanyone know of a way to fork the Evergreen git project to github?
#09:21:57tecoripaah, never mind. I'll fork the Evergreen repo on github.
#09:23:46tsberetecoripa: I take it you got my @later ;)
#09:25:16tecoripatsbere: yes, I just did. thanks!
#09:25:44tecoripaanother question about git best practice:
#09:26:19tecoripaif you fork a repo, would you just work on master in your fork, or would you still create a Topic branch and work in that?
#09:27:25tecoripaI could see the benefit of leaving master alone, just tracking it from the source repo, and merging changes from master into the branch on your fork
#09:28:32tecoripabut seems like it may be an unnecessary extra step, also
#09:33:04tecoripa has quit IRC
#09:39:16tsbere@later tecoripa I recommend topic branches. Possibly including _2_1 and similar variants if you want to work on a "backported" version at the same time.
#09:39:16pinesol_greentsbere: Error: The "Later" plugin is loaded, but there is no command named "tecoripa" in it. Try "list Later" to see the commands in the "Later" plugin.
#09:39:23tsbere@later tell tecoripa I recommend topic branches. Possibly including _2_1 and similar variants if you want to work on a "backported" version at the same time.
#09:39:23pinesol_greentsbere: The operation succeeded.

#09:52:13tsberetecoripa: Say something to get my @later from your last disconnect. :P
#09:52:42tecoripahello!
#09:54:02tecoripatsbere: got it, thanks. connection problems, and I'm not a very frequent IIRC user.
#09:54:50tecoripatsbere: so I'll create a topic branch off of my forked master, somthing like patstatcat_2_1?
#09:55:26tsbereThat works
#09:55:42tsbereAlthough for a _2_1 variant you would probably want to fork rel_2_1
#09:56:09tecoripainstead of master?
#09:56:44tsbereYea. Fork master for the main branch of a new feature. Fork rel_?_? for the "backported" variant. rel_2_1 or rel_2_0 (or both, depending on how far back you are going)
#09:57:12tsbereAt this point the master variant is the only one that would be likely to make it into the main codebase later
#09:57:36tecoripaah, okay. so it sounds like I should do both: master and rel_2_1, to release the backported version, too
#09:57:41tsbereYea
#09:58:18tecoripaI'll start with master, see how that works out, and if it's deemed ready to fold in, I can then work on creating a backported version, also
#09:58:32tecoriparather than try to maintain two branches in the heat of development
#10:01:12tecoripaokay, gotta run. thanks for your help

#16:36:29NewHello
#16:37:51NewI am attempting to instal evergreen in a shared webhosting environment.
#16:38:34NewThe host wont let me create new users
#16:38:44NewIs creating an opensrf user necessary for installation?
#16:39:21tsbereI would recommend *not* installing evergreen in such an environment to begin with
#16:39:45tsbereIn part because of the libraries that are installed
#16:40:58Newwho would you recommend for hostiing evergreen
#16:42:48tsbereI can't really say, as I run the servers we use myself. There are vendors that can get you up and running, though. You may want to look at http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=faqs:evergreen_companies
#16:43:04tsbereAlternatively, get a full (non-shared) dedicated server?
#16:46:12NewI will check that out Thanks.
