I'm trying to find samples of the github bot doing the same thing, but it looks like the github bot didn't react on merge events, only on close events for pull requests
<samueldr>
which helped tone down the chatter
<samueldr>
should the repositories be whitelisted in the bot (for e.g. nixpkgs-channel-like issues) or should it continue acting like it does?
<gchristensen>
what about dropping any push events where any commit message contains "Merge pull request #35122"
<samueldr>
dropping them only when the tip (last) commit is the merge event, otherwise this could hide other kind of (larger) push events
<gchristensen>
ah sure

Some colors in the github messages would be nice!
<samueldr>
gchristensen: do you know how your bot bits will handle the IRC color control codes?
<gchristensen>
it should ...
<samueldr>
we'll know soon enough, but as long as it doesn't try to do anything intelligent with the messages (which it looks like it doesn't) it should be handled properly
<samueldr>
IIRC, the control code is ASCII 13
<samueldr>
ah no, 0x03
<samueldr>
infinisil: do know that IIRC #nixos strips all colors, so it's probably not useful
<infinisil>
Oh..
<infinisil>
Can we turn that off?

<gchristensen>
oh hi
<infinisil>
Why are colors disabled in the first place?
<gchristensen>
abuse
<makefu>
infinisil: normally the only users which use this features are spambots
<infinisil>
Can we allow only {^_^} to use colors then?
<infinisil>
It would be really useful, especially for a potential nix-repl interface
<samueldr>
it wouldn't surprise me that freenode can't
<infinisil>
The bots are really low though, I think it should be fine enabling it and seeing how it goes. Also {^_^} could have some color spam detection
<samueldr>
yeah, no extbans to allow colors
<infinisil>
The github bot creates such nice notices in other channels
<samueldr>
(extbans are commonly used in IRC-land to configure certain rights for certain users, inspircd has a good number of them)

gchristensen: when you implemented vm tests in your previous company, how did people without nixos run vm tests? I would like to run vm tests for integration in a opensource project that not only is targeted towards nixos.

infinisil: >it's cool to be able to share by just putting it in a local folder< syncthing :p
<infinisil>
sphalerite: huh?
<sphalerite>
infinisil: I have a local folder that's synced to my server using syncthing so I can drop stuff in there and give people an http link
<infinisil>
Ah
<infinisil>
I unfortunately haven't set up anything for bidirectional syncing
<infinisil>
Although I could do unidirectional with zfs + znapzend
<sphalerite>
syncthing is nice because it just syncs stuff immediately, bidirectionally (although you can configure it unidirectionally too), and independent of networking issues (no need for port forwards or anything)
<sphalerite>
sort of like dropbox I hink? But P2P and free software :)

i had a tendency with syncthing to accumulate a whole of 'sync-conflict' files in that directory.
