10:07 <cyrozap> Hi, all. While searching for docs on some stuff online, I noticed that a bunch of freedesktop.org pages still reference Freenode. For example: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freedesktop/freedesktop/-/wikis/home https://wiki.freedesktop.org/nouveau/ https://wiki.freedesktop.org/nouveau/FAQ/ https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Games/

10:07 <cyrozap> https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/Users/Troubleshooting/

10:07 <cyrozap> More can be found with this search query: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=site%3Afreedesktop.org+freenode

10:11 <cyrozap> Most of those links seem to be wiki pages, which (I assume) are publicly editable, but it would be a bit of a pain to go through each one and manually edit them, so perhaps whoever admins the site could run a script to find/replace Freenode with OFTC? Since seeing Freenode all over the place can be a little confusing for people who have never joined these channels before.

10:17 <cyrozap> Also, the channel logs page title still mentions irc.freenode.net. For example: https://people.freedesktop.org/~cbrill/dri-log/index.php?channel=freedesktop&date=2022-05-19

13:27 <Venemo> hey guys, how can I get back this commit in my local git repo? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/064f5172f1b3264202b77c690241a7839c756b41 unfortunately i lost it, the hash is no longer recognized

13:29 <pendingchaos> https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/064f5172f1b3264202b77c690241a7839c756b41.patch + git am ?

13:29 <daniels> ^

13:29 <daniels> (accessible from options -> download patch in the top right)

13:29 <Venemo> isn't there a way to just check it out locally?

13:29 <daniels> not if it's not accessible from any branch ref

13:30 <Venemo> it had about 40 commits which were never merged upstream. I refactored it recently but forgot to make a branch of the old version

13:31 <daniels> it's not anywhere in your reflog?

13:31 <pendingchaos> maybe you can temporarily tag it?

13:31 <Venemo> I'm afraid I ran 'git prune' sometime after I did that

13:31 <Venemo> so it's not available locally

13:32 <Venemo> worst case, I can download the patch file for all of them one by one :D

13:32 <daniels> yeah, here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/Venemo/mesa/-/commit/064f5172f1b3264202b77c690241a7839c756b41

13:32 <daniels> go to repository (left-hand menu) -> branches -> new branch

13:33 <daniels> just tried it and you now have a branch called 'asdf'

13:33 <Venemo> it worked for me too. I wasn't aware the GUI could create a branch like that. thanks daniels you're the best!

13:34 <daniels> np, it was pendingchaos's idea tbf :)

13:34 <daniels> I was thinking of going to materialise a branch through the CLI, didn't even think of web UI

13:35 <Venemo> It would seem that 'git fetch' doesn't fetch dangling commits like this

13:39 <vsyrjala> 'git fetch <repo> <sha>' doesn't work ?

13:39 <daniels> it does not, no

13:40 <vsyrjala> :(

13:40 <Venemo> I didn't try that, only git fetch repo

13:40 <Venemo> Anyway, it turns out this old version suffers from the same bug that I'm struggling with now 🙄

13:47 <daniels> good news - past you is not smarter than current you

13:47 <daniels> congrats!

13:49 <Venemo> 🤣

13:50 <Venemo> Yeah. I hoped past me would save me now, but no 😁

15:36 <anddam> howdy, how can I assign a specific desktop file to be default for a file extension?

15:37 <anddam> case in point I installed AbiWord from GNOME suite, it saves *.abw but those are recognized by "xdg-query mime filetype" as text/xml

15:37 <anddam> now I'd like to have only .abw files opened with abiword

15:38 <anddam> is this a shortcoming of the package? I see /usr/share/mime/{application,packages} could be used for this?

15:38 <anddam> x/?$/d

15:39 <anddam> ohh freedesktop.org.xml

15:39 <anddam> 7406: <mime-type type="application/x-abiword">

15:39 <anddam> why doesn't "query filetype" recognize it then, bad magic numbers?
