asciilifeform: everybody tries. even with stalin's human material as i understand the ev was only marginally +.
mircea_popescu: nazis didn't make bank on slave labour either.
mircea_popescu: it's just not a very good concept.
mircea_popescu: slave labour works in the sense of education ; not very productive as extraction.
asciilifeform: nobody makes bank, it's a 'this is slightly cheaper than immediate boiling for soap' option.
asciilifeform: witness that germans ~did~ send good % straight for soap.
mircea_popescu: nobody really needs that much soap
asciilifeform: aha.
mircea_popescu: it IS better soap than synthetic, but it also doesn't keep as well. so...
asciilifeform: right, hence oven.
asciilifeform: gotta wonder why germans did not conceive of biodiesel. the tech was aaalmost there...
mircea_popescu: i am skeptical this is actually worth bothering.
asciilifeform: ( i suspect the answer is -- comically -- in the scarcity of the diesel cycle in its birth land !! almost until end of war, ~0 diesel there )
mircea_popescu: corndiesel marginal, and corn is a lot more uniform than man
asciilifeform: corn yes. ready 0cost sacks of fat -- not comparable
asciilifeform: and not contemplated as continuous cycle. but waste disposal of existing.

asciilifeform: !~later tell diana_coman plox to describe, very very specifically, what you need done. then i'll show how.
jhvh1: asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I need to create a vpatch that performs the change of dir structure from a/mpi to b/eucrypt/mpi where the contents of the mpi folder in both cases are identical; or more specifically for the task at hand: I want to create a vpatch that has as antecedent my previous sane_mpi_eucrypt.vpatch (whose output is an mpi folder with all sorts) and results in eucrypt/mpi where this new mpi folder has precisely same contents
diana_coman: fwiw I managed to do this to some extent, but I don't like this "to some extent"
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i gotta ask , what did this 'to some extent' look like.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, it does the move BUT it requires post-cleaning (i.e. leaves some stuff behind) + works only with mod6's v; so something is wrong somewhere and hopefully it's just on my side i.e. I can correct it quickly following your explanation of how it should be done
asciilifeform: let's see it
diana_coman: mind telling me how you see it done? it's hopefully faster than debugging a wrong approach; once I have it working I'll write up the failure too if that's the thing
asciilifeform: i'm making an example, brb
diana_coman: k, thanks
phf: diana_coman: it's not going to be pretty. it'll be twice the amount of text: once to delete the old file with - - - - and once to create a new file with + + + +
asciilifeform: phf: this is the basic insanity of gnupatch. a proper vpatch ought to see that the hashes are the same incoming and outgoing , and Do The Right Thing without the idiot spew
asciilifeform: *vpatcher
asciilifeform: the 1 thing i still don't fully understand is why diana_coman's subdir gotta move ☟︎
asciilifeform: it isn't required for the linker, nor for maintaining v-lineage ( the latter works just as well if diana_coman were to simply add a comment to 1 or more items in mpi dir , that 'this is nao part of eucrypt' )
asciilifeform: i.e. why can't 'eucrypt' be a ~sibling~ dir to 'mpi' ☟︎
asciilifeform: then you dun need any gnupatch shenanigans.
asciilifeform: i'ma demonstrate, brb
phf: presumably she doesn't want to compromise the resultant press because of poor tooling
asciilifeform: waiwat
phf: well, the project is called eucrypt, presses into eucrypt directory, inside it has support infrastructure like mpi
phf: if she decides to replace bignum backing, presumably mpi will get nuked and replaced with something else

asciilifeform: phf: given example works with my vtron, oughta equally work with mod6's. and does the job (both from vtronic genealogy pov, and gnumake's -- the latter (see the makefile of my faux 'eucrypt') recurses updir ) the 1 down-side is aesthetics. ☟︎
asciilifeform: now let's come back to my much earlier pill, which i suggested in the mircea_popescu thread. which is imho even uglier. in that one, diana_coman would have to introduce the three mpi-ism vpatches comprising her working set, as ~files~ into eucrypt. and a sed script, and a vtron invocation, into her eucrypt makefile.
asciilifeform: if phf , or anyone else, can think of a 3rd ( that is, one that actually preserves the v-genealogy , rather than idiot-cut-and-pastism ) i'm all ears.
mod6: your example will not work with my vtron, for one simple reason: the new rules state that we do not do ANYTHING with vpatches that do not have a corresponding signature - we IGNORE WILD vpatches and drop them on the floor.
asciilifeform: imho the item i posted just nao, illustrates the cleaner method. but it has down-side in that one has to give up on 'i get to decide exactly what the unix dir structure will look like, notwithstanding the fact that gnumake was dropped as a baby and has nfi what file moving is'
asciilifeform: mod6: if you dun have a testmode, you gotta sign it yerself to run it, what can i say
mod6: That is fine; if it has a valid corresponding signature.
asciilifeform: mod6: i dun like to uncase the launch codes 10,000,000 times per day every time test press. but others are moar than welcome to.
mod6: I understand that sentiment. We discussed this at length. Which is why I actually have a test-vpatch pgp key for that purpose only.
asciilifeform: or can sign it with the mahmood khadir key, or 1 of the others we broke, lol
mod6: haha, fair enough
asciilifeform: at any rate it oughta be obvious what the illustration does simply from naked eye reading.
asciilifeform: you dun actually need to press it, unless specifically want to.
mod6: sure, thanks for posting the sample for diana_coman
asciilifeform: now here's a 3rd pill :
asciilifeform: eh nm no 3rd. can't think of one.
phf: i didn't necessarily need the illustration, because i understood what you were saying, my point was merely that it's sad state of things
asciilifeform: i'ma leave it for diana_coman , mod6 , phf , mircea_popescu , et al, to consider which pill is less barfatronic, and possibly conceive of another.
asciilifeform: phf: sad indeed, and afaik unfixable without sending gnupatch/gnudiff to where they belong -- into the oven.
asciilifeform: though i'll admit that i personally dun get the fixation with moving mpi to being a subdir of $newproj.
asciilifeform: the vdiffing worx exactly correctly, as does the linkage, without this.
asciilifeform: ( both demonstrated in the example. )
phf: well, the nature of v is that you're pressing into a global namespace. in fact that was a property of the original idea to a great extent (hence mp and his insistence on there being only one genesis). we compromised that already by having multiple projects, but you still run into the same issue when you're trying to combine multiple projects together. you're basically saying that the press namespace doesn't matter as long as there's no collision. ~othe
phf: rs~ might a little bit more meaning out of the press namespace. one pill to satisfy later group of people would be to come up with a filesystem hierarchy standard, i.e. you always press at the same root, but you're pressing into a tmsr namespace. so it'll be /bin/bitcoin/... /lib/mpi/... ☟︎
asciilifeform: i happen to see the entire unix directory scheme as idiocy
phf: sure, but you can't avoid namespacing issue. you're pressing files by name.
asciilifeform: but, observe, phf's scheme could easily work, and require afaik no regrinds
asciilifeform: take for instance trb , as seen in http://btcbase.org/patches/genesis/file
asciilifeform: dir is 'bitcoin'
asciilifeform: take mpi . dir is 'mpi'.
asciilifeform: iirc all of the v-releases, to date, are already dir-siblings in phf's hypothetical tmsr-rootdir.
phf: nah
phf: actually, i think fg is the only exception
phf: but yeah in that model your press is / and you have /mpi and /eucrypt, so if you want to link against /mpi you do ../mpi/... in your makefile
asciilifeform: aha, as shown
phf: no what's shown is eucrypt ~inside~ mpi
asciilifeform: and yes fg genesis apparently lacks subdirization.
asciilifeform: phf: how inside ? they're sibling dirs
phf: ah yeah you're right
phf: well, then we're on the same page
asciilifeform: aha.
asciilifeform: i like phf's unification idea. even if it means that at some point i gotta regrind fg-genesis.
asciilifeform: common dir root for errything.
asciilifeform: it very much seems to me, to be The Right Thing.
asciilifeform: also oughta satisfy mircea_popescu's 'there was 1 genesis' item. because under phf's unification, there in fact ~was~ , created an empty universe with a 'bitcoin' dir.
asciilifeform: this also makes the vtronic-linux a moar tenable, imho, proposition.
asciilifeform: picture, all v-released items live in /v/ ; seals in /seals/; wot in '/wot/; /v/ gets pressed on install, and on request whenever later...
asciilifeform: common root lets you vdiffate whatever change you made to anything, even if it takes in > 1 subsystem.
asciilifeform: all binaries on the box must trace their descent to contents of /v/...
phf: right
phf: it is to some extent a bsd model (that slackless os also follows it), where you have baseline system, where the source is owned by a cabal of maintainers/developers
asciilifeform: suckless ?
phf: err, yes, i was going to say slackware, but they are sloppier than bsd

phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-14#1751602 << i have some ideas of the first steps, that is i can make backwards compatible vpatched diff/patch ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-12-14 19:42 mircea_popescu: phf are you amenable to re-writing diff btw ? http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-06#1747792 is going to happen later this year, and v-immutability is a pita.
mircea_popescu: how ?
phf: take existing stuff, strip it down to just what we already have -ruN functionality. i think that the actual tools should be vdiff and vpatch, that is they do shasuming themselves and produce proper vpatches/apply proper vpatches, but without chain or signature validation.
mircea_popescu: why without ?
phf: well, signature validation is done by gnupg, i don't see any reason to bring that whole thing in, and there's very little reason to system("gnupg ...")
mircea_popescu: mpi ?
phf: chain validation needs to only go as far as "does the hash on the file that i'm about to patch corresponds to what i expect"
mircea_popescu: the whole idea is to eg import keccak from eucrypt
mircea_popescu: and why would diff/patch be outside of vtroner is the larger design question
phf: mpi is a fraction of what gnupg is, are we then moving away from pgp keys and signatures?
mircea_popescu: idea is to use tmsr-rsa anyway
phf: hmm
phf: this then is entirely unscoped
mircea_popescu: it is. open discussion.
mircea_popescu: in principle we could do incremental builds ; but only if they can be cleanly upgraded later, that's a major point.
phf: in my thinking vtroner is a larger beast, that's responsible for the management of the entire press chain. patch/diff are dealing with a specific problem of comparing two states, producing a difference of those two tays, and then taking a state into a next state according to differences
mircea_popescu: so basically keep them modular ?
mircea_popescu: can you imagine any other context besides pressing this new diff/patch would be used in ?
phf: from that perspective both vdiff and vpatch ~could~ also produce a corresponding sig, in which case the protocol is that patch/diff produce an always valid vpatch (i.e. vpatch/sig combination)
mircea_popescu: how can they sig for you
phf: i thought that's what you were talking about?
mircea_popescu: no ?
mircea_popescu: ~check~ signatures.
phf: or the thinking that vdiff doesn't sig, but then vpatch expects a sig never the less?
mircea_popescu: not produce them
mircea_popescu: and yes.
mircea_popescu: sign in your sign room, mofo.
phf: i don't think that's a good idea, but i can't articulate an objection. vpatch now needs to know about your wot and wot management, or else the process of patching now becomes explicitly providing a pub key, a corresponding sig and a vpatch itself.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't have to be decided now.
mircea_popescu: isn't the latter actually ideal, protocol wise ?
phf: well, this goes back to the threads about whether or not it makes sense to patch sigs on your workbench. i use patch in my workflow frequently outside of pressing a tree to bring things from one state into another. i might have a dozen of unsigned patches, that i'm working with that won't see the light of day
phf: in this case the value of proper vpatch/vdiff is that they never produce fuzzy patches and always validate the shasum for you, but they don't do the v-tronic management
mircea_popescu: aaaa
mircea_popescu: you're absolutely right. patch process must be much looser than this.
phf: actually phf-shiva-swank is still broken in the experimental patchset, because it was produced by vdiff/patch combination (vdiff made some claims of shasums, which patch didn't verify. the fact that i should've verified the press is a different question)
mircea_popescu: hm.
phf: btw one of the reasons for dodgy delete function in the diff is that patches theoretically a reversible, -'ing all the lines of file can conversely be +'d back
phf: but anyway, i'm not convinced that file management is a proper concern for diff. we could add it to a diff format, by placing some instructions in the prelude (which is normally ignored by unix patchers). rm src/foo.c, mv src/foo.c src/bar.c which can be used as instructions for reader with non compliant patchers, or parsed by the vpatcher to be executed. this is all incredibly inband, but conforms to the medium
mircea_popescu: the fact that unix diff is directory blind is an idiocy larger than commonly encountered in that thing's misdesign
mircea_popescu: a file is not "its contents and AN ARBITRARY TRUNCATION OF ITS NAME"
mircea_popescu: and a file's fucking name is its absolute path, not the last bit thereof.
mircea_popescu: but whatever, in 1970 people couldn't afford disks with actual directory structure in them
phf: diff/patch allows for absolute paths, we don't them it though
mircea_popescu: i don't know how it allows if i can't move a god damned file.
phf: well, moving of the file is a filesystem operation, what does it have to do with ~diffing~?
mircea_popescu: that the name of the file is the file.
mircea_popescu: the FILE has changed.
phf: sure, but diff's way of indicating change is to show what happened to a file, that is all the lines of the file got deleted
mircea_popescu: if i edit glib.c and replace line 50 with "fuck you stallman", and then try to compile glib.c, i get an error. if i edit glib.c and MOVE glib.c to /fuck/you/stallman/glib.c, and try to compile glib.c, i get an error
mircea_popescu: ergo, BOTH these operations have been edits of the file.
mircea_popescu: phf and in that diff is designed by turkeys.
phf: diff has two things that it can signal: an addition of a line, and a deletion of a line, which is in line with what it claims to diff, i.e. diffing of lines
phf: *claims to do
trinque: problem stemming from that unix uses file path as a matter of identity, and allows this to be mutable (!) ☟︎
trinque: can't be both
mircea_popescu: ^
mircea_popescu: trinque's statement is perfectly acceptable.
phf: but then the question is what is the responsibility of diff
mircea_popescu: phf sure, and subsistence hunting has two things that it can do, throw rock or jab spear. this is in line with it being an occupation of idiots invented by idiotws.
phf: fwiw diff can't even know that a file has been moved
mircea_popescu: but it can know that it's not in the same directory.
phf: no, it can't
mircea_popescu: "the difference between a/fuckyoustallman.c and b/fuckyoustallman.c is 1) that one's in a and the other in b ; 2) no further"
mircea_popescu: why can't it ?
phf: if you do mkdir a; touch foo; touch a/foo; mv foo a/foo;
phf: there's no way of knowing without having a complete history of states whether or not foo was moved or removed
mircea_popescu: but you can know that one foo is in a and the other not
mircea_popescu: diff compares two items, not an item to itself
mircea_popescu: when i say diff a/foo b/foo, diff fails to output "one is in a, the other in b" as the first fucking item on its list of differences. this is because the (idiots) that made diff thought they gain something by eliding "the trivial case".
mircea_popescu: this turns out to not have been so
mircea_popescu: "of course the user knows they're not in the same dir duh" is no design logic.
phf: wut
phf: it's precisely first item it outputs
mircea_popescu: then WHY!!!! can't i use it to move files!!11
phf: diff can't know if the newly appeared item that's identical to an item that exists elsewhere in previous state has been moved there from the elsewhere or created in situ
phf: you can communicate that information through a patch format, but that's not something ~diff~ can guess about
mircea_popescu: i dun get what the problem is.
mircea_popescu: if you have a : a/b a/c and b : b/b b/d/c it is thereby evident upon diffing a and b that c was moved from a/ to b/d/ if a/c contents === b/d/c contents.
phf: say you have /a/foo and you have /a/bar/foo where both foo are identical. you're running diff -ruN a b, what is the expected behavior?
mircea_popescu: what's to guess ?
phf: by your previous question you're saying that diff is supposed to say that foo was moved
mircea_popescu: this'd require all file movements to be a separate patch, as you can't both move and edit in the same go. which imo is bonus the right thing
mircea_popescu: phf yeah ?
phf: what if you have /a/foo and /b/bar/foo, /b/qux/foo where all foo are identical?
mircea_popescu: then the first one was moved and the other created.
mircea_popescu: also, if it dies a flaming death in this case that'd be very acceptable, and fuck you for keeping duplicates like that.
phf: so basically hash sums trump namespacing always
mircea_popescu: it's why we have them
mircea_popescu: "file's identity" as per trinque
phf: in that case we should probably forbid hash identical files to be in different paths
mircea_popescu: kinda what i said above
mircea_popescu: we have long ago de facto forbidden hash-identical files ~from being~. anything, at all. ☟︎
phf: (that was by the way how btcbase patcher worked for a long time, until i had to modify it because there are placeholder items in bitcoin source code that are at different filepaths)
mircea_popescu: hence the keccak instead of curent whatever it is.
mircea_popescu: phf because it's the logical way for it to work
mircea_popescu: but this is why this discussion was so important : it has in fact emerged that the correct implementation of diff would first a) calculate hash of all files in each dir ; then b) process moves and only then c) do the diffing. ☟︎
phf: not restricted to moves by the way, there's also copy. there's a certain symmetry lost though. if you say make a genesis with 3 empty files a b c, then they are fresh line patches. but the patch against that that creates another 3 empty files puts cp a x; cp a y; cp a z; in the prelude instead
mircea_popescu: anywya, this system'd be purrfect : if hash unchanged, "this is THE SAME file by a different name (or path, same thing" ; if hash changed "this is DIFFERENT FILE by same name"

phf: i'm not sure this is necessary, patch already contains line count information in the @ ... @ part
phf: +++ --- is there not for content parsing, but for allowing an arbitrary prelude (that is for including patches in email)
phf: the reason why we have issues with +++ and --- is because vdiff specifically ignores the @ ... @ bits when postprocessing a patch. a complete vdiff-er wouldn't have to do that kind of post processing and can produce a valid patch always

lobbesbot: Logged on 2017-12-14 22:44:09: <danielpbarron> this is a real testement to quality of S.NSA and its products
mircea_popescu: phf so basically this is cropping down nicely after all. proper vpatch (fixing mod6 's bane, the empty dir thing) + proper vdiff (hash-based preprocessing of rename/move + proper use of @@...@@ + keccak hashing). ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: by the looks of it, sometime in january. that works ?
phf: should be doable
mircea_popescu: cool.
phf: hmm, there's a bit of complexity there as far as producing files/directories shuffle, which might take longer, but i'll start with paring things down. i haven't yet seen diff/patch sources closely! ☟︎
mircea_popescu: kinda why im giving you a two week lead here.

diana_coman: to round up the previous thread: previous patch on mpi remains in place but linked to standalone mpi project; EuCrypt got is own genesis patch that creates *the whole currently known structure*; each chapter comes with its own patch adding content
mircea_popescu: onwards&upwards
phf: верной дорогой идете, товарищи
