True, git itself can’t prevent people from creating a mess of a commit graph.
TBH, lots of build systems mentioned here I’ve never encountered so far.
But this makes it clearer that one can’t reason about how viable a “one big monorepo only” approach mighy be by just considering the capabilities of current git, coming from a “manyrepo” mindset. Likely that was the pitfall I fell into coming into this discussion.
So AFAIU, if a company had:
… and all those apps would share some smaller, self developed libraries / components with the frontend and/or backend, then the “no submodules, but one big monorepo” approach would be to just put all those apps into that monorepo as well and simply reference whatever shared code there might be via relative paths, effectively tracking “latest”, or maybe some distinct “stable version folders” (not sure if that’s a thing).
Anyway, certainly never thought to go that far, because having an app that’s “mostly independant” from a codebase perspective be in it’s own repo seemed beneficial. But yeah, it seems to me this is a matter of scale and at some point the cost of not having everything in a monorepo would become too great.
Thanks!
But if not for using submodules, how can one share code between (mono-)repos, which rely on the same common “module” / library / etc.? Is it a matter of “not letting submodules usage get out of hand”, sticking to an “upper limit of submodules”, or are submodules to be avoided entirely for monorepos of a certain scale and there’s a better option?
Have a ZOWIE EC2 for quite a while now:
Works well on all OS.
Regarding tauri: One and a half years ago I looked into it as a potential alternative to using electron.
Back then I had to decide against it for my use case, because when the goal is that it’s a cross platform app, then one has to make sure that whatever “webview version” is used on all target OS, they all have to support the features one needs re one’s own app codebase.
Back then I needed some “offscreen canvas” feature that chromium supported (hence electron), but which webkit2gtk (used on Linux) didn’t at the time.
https://tauri.app/v1/references/webview-versions/
So it’s not always easy to give a clear recommendation on using tauri over electron. One really has to get somewhat clear on what kind of “webview requirements” the resp. app will have.
But I do hope this will (or maybe already is) less of an issue in upcoming years (things are moving fast after all).
Same here! Been using manjaro for more than 5 years by now on all my dev machines and I really like not being overrun by updates.
Once you form the habit of checking latest “stable update” forum thread (the eqivalent of checking the arch frontpage before an upgrade) and check for potential “manual interventions” (if any), then it gives you suprisingly good stability. But it’s still rolling release and “pretty current”.
And stability simply becomes more of a factor once your metaphorical “plate” becomes choke full and the last thing you want from your underlying OS is to act up on its own due to an update.
Assuming one hears their own voice in recorded form enough times, that “strange” feeling it might give at first subsides.
And it will find you the most answers online in case you have a git related question.
Oh boy… can’t promise you that I will last that long. I know it sounds pathetic, but is replying to one’s own comment an option (just for stress testing)?
Kinda, but that’s “rainbows”.
Status quo (your comment): 8 x 7 + 1 = 57 sure is bunch of stripes.
I see. 9th rainbow, here we go.
Oh wow, even if you put it in landscape? In either case, lemmy’s web interface hides a lot of context by default when answering via the “messages” notifcation. So in a sense, with that one could reply endlessly. Then again, that’s not part of our experiment I’d say.
Right, that’s how it all started.
I just unfolded everthing. Seems we are on the 8th rainbow. Almost looks like on my phone, while in potrait mode, 10 rainbows will likely have it filled up.
Alright, second season, here we go!
Ha, for sure I missed the other comment…
One takeaway from this surely is that such deeply nested endeavours sure are easily missed.
I do wonder if there’s a hard limit at some point regarding “nested replies”…
Nice, bit over half way point here.
I see, somehow completely forgot that apps might be different. In browser version in landscape (I just noticed) there’s also the right sidebar, which reserves some space. So it wouldn’t even have to go all the way.
Somewhat recently I caused a failed kernel update by accident:
Ran system update in tmux session (local session on desktop). But problem was that tmux itself got also updated, which crashed the tmux session and as a result crashed the kernel update. Only realized it upon the following reboot (which no longer worked).
Your described solution re “live ISO, chroot, run system update once more, reboot” was also what got me out of that situation. So certainly something worth learning for “general troubleshooting” purposes re system updates.
