13:10:49 — iiiiiiinteresting, subrepos: http://bit.ly/4AHoSo (experimental mercurial feature)
13:32:18 — heeheehee at the command "LS" (note the capitalization)
13:33:39 — also "sl" :x
15:37:17 — find myself curious about the guts of mercurial, and have checked out the latest source code and installed it on my server.
15:38:14 — have hacked up some local modifications (emphasis HAAACK) to make it always serve up non-image raw files as text/plain for the sake of IE
16:17:30 — now trying out the hgsubversion extension; instructions slightly wrong (need hg clone, not hg svnclone). crossing fingers...
16:38:47 — trying to convert the svn repo to mercurial is really slow and painful, and times out constantly. I am afraid I will need to give up (noooo)
16:55:48 — I can't seem to get what you'd use the bookmarks extension for . Hmm .
16:57:32 — mercurial bookmarks are like tags, but move? like named branches, but more flexible?
17:22:06 — trying to puzzle out pbranch, but may not be what I need currently: http://bit.ly/7XLqz1
17:24:49 — oh, sad. the download link for the Nearest extension no longer works: http://bit.ly/8rRdKi
18:02:02 — always feel better with source code in hand. Can tweak the tiny things (this means I need to learn Python now, though, doesn't it? hmmm)
18:02:14 — *malleable* :-)
18:11:55 — @djco hgsubversion and the convert extension both, but I suspect it is the svn repo at fault (offer very much appreciated! still exploring)
18:13:06 — I am finding a calming pleasure in minimal interfaces (elinks, mutt, nongraphical hg log, cutting down on unnecessary visual input)
18:14:58 — free pizza is becoming a common occurrence around these parts. HELLO AGAIN DELIVERY MAN
18:16:54 — okay, putting down my toys and picking up jQuery (which is also a toy, in the best way possible :-))
19:23:42 — @djco bad luck, the svn server is too old to use svnsync with, but thank you for the tip.
20:48:53 — @djco alas, no, not under my control. I'll just have to content myself with using hg for all my other stuff.
20:50:10 — ooh, can edit style attributes in the Safari DOM inspector by double-clicking on them! add a semi-colon to append a new attr altogether.
