| 10:55.02 | blast007 | Constitution: the Xcode project does seem to list at least the nagware config and a 'plugins.cfg' for one of the other two plugins that had a config (either superUser or serverControl), so you'd need to update those as well, and for consistency, either have none of them or all of them list the configs. I'll be renaming the 'crontab' file to bzfscron.cfg, which is also referenced in the Xcode project. |
| 11:04.32 | blast007 | BulletCatcher: where are you seeing a 10-line limit for -helpmsg? Looks like it should grab the first 50 lines up to ~128 chars per line: https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag/blob/2.4/src/bzfs/CmdLineOptions.cxx#L752 |

| 14:50.53 | BulletCatcher | That's what I get for believing the documentation. |
| 14:52.52 | blast007 | :D |
| 14:54.11 | BulletCatcher | The limit was 20 lines before r12449, so the man page was always wrong about that. |
| 14:54.21 | blast007 | heh |
| 14:54.44 | blast007 | "I'm thinking of a number from 1 to 10" "20?" |
| 14:54.50 | BulletCatcher | lol |
| 15:04.50 | blast007 | regarding the using the git hash as part of the version string, how will we get the hash when we're not using a git checkout? for instance, from our source tar/zip. |
| 15:06.57 | blast007 | Not finding any information about if it's possible for github's automatically generated source archives to have the hash embedded. |
| 15:16.39 | blast007 | perhaps this? https://web.archive.org/web/20150421011209/http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Attributes#Keyword-Expansion |

| 18:07.31 | Constitution | maybe "make dist" can dump it in a file? |
| 18:14.05 | blast007 | so we'll have to run 'make dist' before every commit? |
| 18:19.36 | Constitution | no, that would be secondary if it isn't a git repo |
| 18:19.57 | Constitution | if it is a git repo, it could be extracted from that, presumably |
| 18:51.49 | blast007 | or would it be better to just show 'unknown' if it's not a git repo? |
| 19:24.45 | Constitution | I'm presuming release binaries would be built from the make dist tarballs, so that would mean all of our release binaries would show unknown |
| 19:35.21 | blast007 | if we release on Github, it automatically generates a source tar/zip from the repo |
| 19:35.59 | Constitution | ah |
| 19:36.46 | blast007 | and there's the "Download Zip" on the repo page |

| 20:27.18 | BulletCatcher | There should be only a couple of revisions with an even numbered release number (e.g., 2.4.2), so it isn't important to have a Git hash or anything else more specific for releases. |
| 20:28.26 | BulletCatcher | It is only the odd numbered development versions where a Git hash would be informative. |
| 20:31.06 | BulletCatcher | We ought to be able to arrange it to have the Git hash in the version string when building a development version from a Git tree, and fall back to the date otherwise, such as when a GitHub tar or zip file was used. |
| 20:31.44 | blast007 | doh, good point.. |

| 23:15.57 | the_map | wait... |
| 23:16.08 | blast007 | waits |
| 23:16.11 | the_map | <Constitution> aren't we being overly optimistic to think that there will actually be a 2.6 release at this point? |
| 23:16.33 | the_map | are you all thinking about stopping bzflag development after the 2.4.4 release? |
| 23:17.19 | blast007 | it's not planned, but dev activity isn't what it used to be, so he's simply questioning the likelyhood of a new major release |
| 23:45.31 | BulletCatcher | It is easy to predict the future, but difficult to do so correctly. |
