Hi all,

there’s been a lot of changes lately to the Luatex SVN but the mirror on the Garden doesn’t appear to match pace. Here’s the experimental branch on the Garden and on supelec:

http://git.contextgarden.net/context/luatex/commits/origin/experimental https://foundry.supelec.fr/scm/viewvc.php/branches/experimental/?root=luatex&sortby=date#dirlist

Commits after 25 Apr are missing on the former.

I was experimenting with svn2git during BachoTeX, but I didn't set it up properly and the way I made the conversion isn't working properly for incremental updates. This means that I would need to change the strategy to convert from SVN, but I didn't take time yet to take a look into it. There is no cron job. But if anyone would like to get it done, feel free to reply off-list and I can try to fix it, maybe with your help.

Perhaps a cron job is broken somewhere?

No. It has never worked in the first place.

Also I noticed that if I click the “compare” button on this form:

http://git.contextgarden.net/context/luatex/compare?from=master&to=experimental

I get a 500 (“We’re sorry, …”). Can anybody reproduce this?

Yes. I can reproduce this. GitLab seems nice and powerful, but there are bugs and problems. And sometimes it works very very slow. I need to figure out whether something went wrong on the server or if there's a bug in GitLab. Mojca
