JIRA up again - Do we still need FishEye?

by Colin Finck

Hi all! Our two Atlassian tools JIRA and FishEye have been unavailable for some hours again. I have brought JIRA back up, but FishEye has been eating RAM and CPU like crazy again. In my opinion, this is unacceptable for a tool that is just a simple commit browser to us. Also I don't have any time to constantly monitor it this weekend, so I'm leaving it shut down for now. With us having https://github.com/reactos/reactos/commits/master and https://git.reactos.org/?p=reactos.git;a=summary now, do we still need FishEye at all? If so, please tell me what features of it you would miss if it stays down. Maybe there are other alternatives. My last FishEye "performance" bug report took 3 months to resolve, and I'm reluctant to go the same route again for another such bug.. Cheers, Colin

Question about commits with no commit log, or commits with no files but just the log, on Git.

by Hermès BÉLUSCA - MAÏTO

‌Hello all,<br> <br> After having noticed https://github.com/reactos/reactos/commit/50ae5e7c5268222718174221366169e2b…<br> I am wondering whether it is possible to add mechanisms (like git pre-commit hooks) that check for, and<br> prevent potential problematic commits like, commits without commit log, or commits with no files (but with a log).<br> <br> Any ideas?<br> <br> Cheers,<br> Hermes

Testing Pull Requests

by Colin Finck

Hi all! Apart from basic build testing through AppVeyor and Travis-CI, you can now also run all regression tests for the code belonging to a Pull Request. Just log in to our BuildBot at https://build.reactos.org with your development account credentials (formerly "SVN credentials"), select a builder in the waterfall view and fill the field "Branch" in the "Force a Build" section. You have two options here: * "refs/pull/<ID>/head" Builds your branch, unmodified. That means, if you haven't kept your branch up to date with the main ReactOS repo, latest changes won't be included. * "refs/pull/<ID>/merge" Builds the changes of your branch merged to the main ReactOS repo. That means, latest changes in the main ReactOS repo will be included. Replace <ID> by the number of your Pull Request. As the resulting hash may be hard to predict, the "prepare source" step will now give detailed information about the latest commit included in your build: https://build.reactos.org/builders/Build%20GCCLin_x86/builds/19201/steps/pr… Have fun!

Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [reactos] 01/01: Fix remaining text file line endings in the tree. (#18)

by Colin Finck

Sorry for the huge diff E-Mail to ros-diffs! I have just configured git_multimail.py to a maximum of 5000 lines to not let that happen again. We can again reduce the limit later on if it turns out to be still too much. Best regards, Colin Finck

Re: [ros-dev] ReactOS Repository migrated to GitHub

by Can Tasan

Congrats for switching into Github! Just a little question. Is there any way to return using revision numbers? Current hash-based commit tagging might be confusing, hard to find, not reflecting at-the-time state of development since we have relied on SVN for a long time. Also for bug reporting, revision numbers is more helpful. Secondly, for example, Wine don't (and probably won't) care for hashes as everyone out there uses release builds, and release period is just 2 weeks. That's not the case for ReactOS. In just a few commits big changes might occur, and everyone retests. 3 months? Avalanche! If it isn't viable, could we seek for another solution? (e.g timestamp...) Lastly, git.reactos.org is quite simple for watching the stream, and perfect! Best regards, Can

ReactOS Repository migrated to GitHub

by Colin Finck

Today, the ReactOS Source Code has been migrated from a central Subversion instance to a decentralized Git repository. Together with that, ReactOS joins the list of projects using the popular GitHub service for developing software: https://github.com/reactos/reactos We expect that this move greatly improves the way we collaborate on ReactOS development and reduces the barriers for newcomers. Just fork our repository on GitHub, commit your changes and send us a Pull Request! Migrating a source code history of more than 20 years that had seen multiple version control systems was not a straightforward task. Deciding on a decentralized version control system has not been either. First discussions already started back in 2009, when neither Git nor Mercurial were able to fully convert a large SVN repository like ours and Git’s Windows support was still neglected. Things improved massively over the years, with GitHub and Git for Windows emerging as reliable tools for software development. But the ReactOS Project still took advantage of some Subversion features, so only a smooth migration using a two-way SVN-Git mirror was attempted in 2016. This failed miserably, however important lessons were learned for a future complete migration to Git. The tipping point was reached in early 2017 when a majority of ReactOS developers spoke out in favor of moving to Git. Finally, the ReactOS Hackfest in August offered a forum to try out things and discuss every little detail of the planned migration. And this is what got us here today! The development documentation is still in the process of being rewritten to account for the Git migration. You may currently find outdated information here and there. However, most of that is on the Wiki, so you are more than welcome to help us! The SVN Repository has been turned read-only and will be kept online for a while at the last revision r76032. Our Git mirror now mirrors the GitHub repository. If you have already been using our old Git mirror, please note that you have to do a fresh clone of our new repository (from either GitHub or the mirror) as the old and new ones are incompatible. JIRA continues to be used for bug tracking, BuildBot for continuous integration, and FishEye as a code browser. I would like to thank all the people who have helped with this migration, be it on IRC, the mailing lists or at the Hackfest! Special thanks also go to the KDE Project for their excellent svn-all-fast-export tool that was used for the conversion. If you are ever in a similar situation, have a look at my conversion scripts as well as the Git helpers for our infrastructure. Colin Finck

Regression in r75772 broke multiple disk drive support

by Dimitrij Klingbeil

Hi all, It looks like revision 75772 (removed a "DeviceExt->OpenHandleCount--;") has introduced some significant unintended consequences. Ever since I can't get ReactOS to recognize a second hard drive. My configuration is like this: - ReactOS in a VirtualBox VM, VirtualBox version 5.11.18 - VM configured for Windows 2003 32-bit, with 1 CPU - Emulated Chipset: PIIX3, no USB, no Audio, no Serial - AMD-V active, Nested Paging active, - No paravirtualization interface, no guest additions - Emulated Storage: SATA controller with 4 ports - Port 0: First Hard disk (has partition C) - Port 1: Second Hard disk (has partition D) - Port 3: CDROM (to install ReactOS from, E) - Each hard disk has one single primary partition (FAT formatted by an older ReactOS setup) - On C I install ReactOS (re-formatting the partition in the process) - On D there is some data (a small collection of program installers to try out) Now, inside ReactOS I cannot see the contents of D. The drive itself shows up, but unformatted and of a zero size. In the revisions before 75772 there were no problems, I could see the drive and use the data on it. Re-installing r75771 shows that the drive image is OK and the data is still there, so it's not the data that was corrupted. If I insert a CDROM image (with ReactOS already running), the CDROM drive (E) suddently disappears and D now has the CDROM in it (so happened just now with r75872). When I eject the CDROM, D becomes empty but still shows the icon for a CDROM. E does not re-appear. 75772 looks like a very small change, but something must have gone really off the rails... Regards, Dimitrij P.S. This was at first sent from the wrong (not subscribed to the list) address by mistake. I think the first one was rejected by the list SW, but sorry if the message appears twice.
