OS/X startup scripts

From
David Fetter

Folks,

The attached tarball should be unpacked in contrib/startup-scripts,
and supplants PostgreSQL.darwin and StartupParameters.plist.darwin.
Thanks to Mark Cotner of Reflectr
<http://pgfoundry.org/projects/reflectr/> fame for this update :)

I haven't included the customary diffs.  This points me to some of the
many deficiencies of CVS, namely that I would need write access in
order to have it create a diff, and write access is boolean, which
means that I can't get write access only to the parts of the tree that
make sense for me to have write access to.

What say we consider using Git, which includes a CVS interface,
starting after 8.3 gets out the door?

Cheers,
David.

Strange, it works fine for everyone else.

Especially if you have cvsutils installed (can be found in many places

I didn't know about those, so I'll prepare a patch to the developer
and documenter docs that mentions this utility :)

I dunno what cvsutils is, but I do know that plain old "cvs diff" works
fine whether you have commit privs or not.  Rather than preparing a
patch to our docs, perhaps you should spend some time reading the CVS
docs.

cvs diff works just great until you want to add or remove a file
without write permissions to the CVS repository, i.e. when you've
checked out as anonymous.

I usually saved an untouched version of the tree to compare against, so
something like:

$ cvs diff -Nacr pgsql.orig pgsql

gives a complete patch including added/deleted files. It is a bit
primitive, but is pretty easy to do!

Personally, I usually work against a checkout from a local mirror of the
CVS repository (which you can create via cvsup or rsync). With that
setup, "cvs add" and "cvs diff -N" work fine, since you can arrange for
write access to the local mirror.

(I'm always surprised to hear that anyone does a non-trivial amount of
work on Postgres without setting up a CVS mirror...)

This is the part that cvsutils fakes for you (by hacking the local cvs
metadata files) so you don't need write access.

It's great that we have all this knowledge of how to deal with CVS's
deficiencies, but at the moment, it amounts to magical lore.  Until we
get something better to replace it, they should be part of the docs. :)

Except that it also includes diffs for generated files, which tend to be
huge.  To work around that you need to create a list of files to
exclude, and the whole thing (which was cumbersome already) starts to
get unmanageable.

I do use the cvsup mirror myself which makes things so much easier and
faster.

Not so, you just do a

$ make maintainer-clean

before the diff, which clears all those out.

While maintaining a cvs mirror is also good, for a small piece of work
(or a work on a well defined area of the code) this requires no fooling
around with repositories at all (which is nice).

Yeah, but then if you make a mistake with the patch and have to build
again to retest, you have to wait the whole thing to compile, which can
be annoying.

True - depends on the speed of your machine as to how annoying this
really is... (I'm using a PIII 1.26 GHz... takes 5 min with -O2 - good
excuse for a coffee etc).

However, as David brought up previously it is probably worth mentioning
several of the various CVS work-arounds in the docs, so people at least
get a good survey of the options - they can then choose whichever suits
their needs best.

+1...

BTW, is there some trick to getting cvs diff to ignore files that aren't
in the repo?

I suspect he's talking about all the lines starting with '?' that diff
produces.

Lacking sophistication, I've been known to do:

cvs diff [list of files here] |grep -v '^?' > the_file.diff

Well, it throws a notice that they're there...

decibel@platter.1[20:34]~/pgsql/HEAD/src:22%cvs diff
? Makefile.global
? backend/postgres
? backend/access/common/.deps
? backend/access/gin/.deps
...

Granted, I could run that through grep, but I'm not sure that's 100%
safe.

What I do is build somewhere else.  Thus the only files present in the
source dir and not in the repo are those generated by bison/flex, which
are in .cvsignore and are thus not displayed.

That said, check this out:

http://www.ubiobio.cl/~gpoo/pgsql/settings/

Sadly, usage instructions are in spanish only currently, but I claim
that this script is extremely useful for Pg development (sure, I wrote
it and tailored to my needs).  If there is interest I can translate the
docs, but I have posted the script in these lists before and got no much
of an interest.  Michael Glaesemann did find it useful when I showed it
to him in the summit, though.

Not when I do "cvs diff."  Is there something I should (un)set in my
.cvsrc?

IMHO, the diffs also need to be human-readable, and 500 useless lines
starting with "?" don't help with that.

No. (The lines that go to stderr are the directory names). But I don't
see why there's a problem with using the command above. Or if you
prefer, use something like this to postprocess the file:

  perl -ni -e 'print unless /^\?/;' diff-file

Ooo! Nifty! I'll have to check out what's changed. I still use this
script. I find it very helpful. I can post my tweaks as well, if
there's interest.

Yes, there is.

The one thing I did not keep was the stuff about the env vars, because
it didn't suit me to be copying and pasting them with the mouse.  To
solve the autocompletion problem you had that prompted you to tweak it,
what I do is

runpg 00<tab> ` Ctrl-A ` <enter>

so the autocompletion works because the first work is "runpg" and not
the single quote, and I enter the initial quote when the command has
been completed (Ctrl-A moves to the start of the line).

I can't remember if I dropped something else.

Thanks, Alvaro. I've installed Hg and pulled from the site you

Btw, we should look at localization for this in the not too distant

If you have rsh/ssh access to a CVS repository then you do in fact need write
access just to generate diffs. It is one of the annoyances of CVS but it
doesn't really matter for Postgres where we use pserver anonymous access.

Personally I find CVS so terribly slow for large trees like Postgres that it's
essential to use rsync to maintain a local CVS repository. That makes 'cvs
diff' remarkably fast.

You need write-access to add files, even on anonymouse server. We often
get patches with new files as separate attachments because of that.

Yeah, I've done that for a long time. It's by far the best way to work
with CVS, "cvs add" works, and you can do diffs, checkouts etc. offline.

Oh quite right. I had forgotten but that was the original reason I switched to
using rsync. The alternative is to manually edit the Entries files to list the
new files.

Having recently tried to get this to work right and not quite nailed it
down yet, I know it would be a help to new developers if someone using
this technique would write out a suggested setup/workflow for generating
patches this way.  Right now the best instructions out there are those
that go with the buildfarm

http://pgfoundry.org/docman/view.php/1000040/4/PGBuildFarm-HOWTO.txt

and those aren't quite focused right if the goal is to work on new patches
while keeping in sync with the repository.

Those lines go to stderr. If you do "cvs diff > file" it spits out all the cvs

patch only looks at the things it recognizes.
