I would also like to see this, and I hate to say it, but I was also looking for a vc-pijul, couldn’t find one, and started to write one. However, I’ve started by forking vc-darcs, since there are a lot of similarities. My code is also on The Nest – perhaps we should try to work together on pushing this forward?
I have read your codes. They are more complete than mine. Glad to know that there are other people interested in Emacs VC support for pijul as well. :)
I would like to cooperate. But right now I found my patched pijul unable to clone: when I run pijul clone
it gives an error
Error: error decoding response body: invalid type: integer
1663912132
, expected a formatted date and time string or a unix timestamp at line 13 column 33
I will try to find out why that happens, before I can clone your repository. (I just read your codes in the browser.)
Yeah, and your code looks much more like what I’d like – very clean and organized. Nest doesn’t offer a great way to move things OOB, so my email is greg@technomadic.org. Then we can leave this discussion to its purpose 😄
Applied, thanks! And I’d also like a Pijul integration with Emacs, if anyone volunteers to do that it would be fantastic.
I’ve been pretty happily using my sellout/vc-pijul package in Emacs for months. I started unifying mine and @JSDurand’s into a single repo, but stalled out on that. I should finish that work, then submit it to MELPA.
Once that’s done, I can submit a patch to link to it from the Pijul README or manual or something. (Where, if anywhere, would you like “external tool support” to be documented? I haven’t found anything.)
A record can contain a description and a message, but the user currently cannot set the description from command line.
So I write a simple patch to add this functionality.
It will make integration with editors easier I think, since when writing commit messages in editors, not triggered by
pijul record
, the user usually writes a summary line followed by detailed descriptions. With this feature, the editor can separate the title from the descriptions and feed them separately to pijul.In the above, when I speak about editor, I think of Emacs. In fact, I am trying to implement Emacs VC support for pijul. The Nest repository is here.
What do you think?
