Well I'm one of the 99.9%. But I do rely heavily on XFS. And boy do I appreciate everyone's work on XFS and SGI's willingness to GPL it and pay good people to work on it. So what can a guy like me do
I think XFS would really need someone to maintain the website. It's horribly out of date, and misses some important links. For example it would be nice to have a link to my XFS merge status or even a
Okay, that's something I can do. If external access is not allowed, maybe I could send updates to someone who does have access? Or I could put things together on my site and then they could pulled ov
The faq is currently maintained by someone outside of SGI (thanks Seth!) so other parts probably could be as well. We have an SGI tech pubs guy who does the pages for each release (featuers, testing,
I just added a link to your changelog 4 days ago or so ;) Way ahead of you. Although Eric allows me to update the site I rarely do so. The problem is the amount of spare time I have beside my work an
Okay, I've been thinking about what I can do and have come up with something along these lines. The mozilla project has a status report which is basically a weekly summary of what people have done. T
It looks good, but as someone trying to avoid CVS I'm not sure I will ever use One general comment, weekly or daily summaries are nice, but a cumulative list is even better. Then someone can review a
How about a link to the mailing list archives of the original TAKE messages? Or I could link to the files in CVSweb (a little more work, but probably not too bad)? James Rich
I could keep each weekly summary which could then be grouped together for a cumulative summary. Not any more work really. The only problem there is that I don't think patches are available for each i
Hey, I like it. I think it begs for a script, though - you may get tired of this on the days when 8 or so TAKE messages fly by! At one point Russell had a procmail filter that would attach diffs to T
except cvs is to broken to handle complicated concepts like renaming and moving things, which SGI's revision control does, and SGI folks take advantage of routinly. thus cvsweb will be broken in thes
I wrote a script to do that some time ago. Just pipe the TAKE message in and run it over a checked out XFS. Pipe the output to a shell. -Andi while (<>) { last if /^Modid:/; print "# $_"; } if (/^Mod
Looks good today, want me to add a link to the FAQ? Maybe we can put this on oss.sgi.com if Eric/Steve agree. I'll put it there if that makes them feel better :) Would making a historical log be a go
A link to the CVS is what you are looking for. Or the TAKE message in the list archive. Cheers -- Seth It might just be your lucky day, if you only knew.
Have you seen "cvsps"? It gives changeset summaries of a CVS repository along the lines of: Members: linux/fs/xfs/xfs_rename.c:1.37->1.38 linux/fs/xfs/xfs_utils.c:1.49->1.50 linux/fs/xfs/xfs_utils.h
