    Sam, FWIW the "easy" mitigation around caps poisoning is to have a per-jid caps cache

  2. mathieui

    that negates some if not most of the usefulness of caps, but at least it is safe

  3. mathieui

    (hence caps2 though)

  4. Sam

    Yah, I suspect that's what I'll have to do.

  5. Sam

    I should look into caps2 again; I have an old implementation lying around somewhere but haven't read it in ages. I wonder if it solved the original problem that I ran into this morning that made me have to restructure every damn thing.

  10. emus

    Good monring morap, you ping me when you are ready, ok?

  11. Link Mauve

    emus, I just noticed you squash multiples commits together when accepting a PR on xmpp.org, this loses all of the commit history when not using the GitHub web UI.

  12. Link Mauve

    I would recommend you to either to a fast-forward rebase, or do merge commits instead.

  13. Link Mauve

    I personally prefer the former, but both are preferable to losing history imo.

  14. flow

    defintely, that said, merge commits ftw :)

  15. mathieui

    Also, when is the website getting rebuilt? is it weekly?

  16. Zash

    Manually by iteam

  17. mathieui pokes Zash for a rebuild

  18. Zash

    Am on phone, computer asleep.

  19. MattJ

    I can do it

  20. emus

    Link Mauve: But most of those PRs are small and the newsletter has a lot of minor stuff

  21. emus

    I dont wanna bloat the commit history

  22. Link Mauve

    That’s a bad reason imo, keeping the history readable by keeping separate changes separate is imo worth more than keeping the number of commits low.

  23. emus

    So you argue to never squash?

  24. emus

    moparisthebest: seen my message?

  25. Link Mauve

    Yes, if you aren’t pleased with a particular PR’s commits, ask the author to reorder them or something, but not squash them yourself.

  26. Link Mauve

    My most recent PR was correctly split in one commit adding xmpp-rs, one commit adding the Rust logo to the homepage.

  27. Link Mauve

    And I’ve seen other PRs with many more commits getting mashed together into something very hard to review after the fact.

  28. emus

    🤔 ok I will try to improve this an take a look for thid
