| lkcl | ghostmansd, that's brilliant. nearly there... | 09:12 |

| lkcl | DiffieHellman, that's a fantastic and hilarious choice of IRC handle :) | 18:21 |
| ghostmansd | lkcl, I suspect there are two persons sharing one laptop :-) | 18:22 |
| lkcl | or perhaps just still one... | 18:23 |
| ghostmansd | Or perhaps two, but someone in the middle as well... | 18:26 |
| ghostmansd | Let's hope there're at least no Bob and Alice | 18:26 |
| ghostmansd | I've rebased the whole svp64 binutils branch, because, frankly, it got really messy with all commits I've done recently. | 21:12 |
| ghostmansd | I mean, when I publish it, nobody needs to know than I had commit which adds many stuff, including ldst_shift, and then, ten commits later, -- another one, which drop it entirely. | 21:13 |
| ghostmansd | There was a lot of such abominations, not really needed for public review. This is not completed, but I want to have at least something readable before I begin publishing it in mailing list. | 21:14 |
| ghostmansd | I think I managed to drop about 10 commits. I'll continue with this and then add extra decoding atop. | 21:16 |
| lkcl | probably sensible, i mean patches i've seen to e.g. linux-kernel will add new stuff, not be a jumbled mesh of add-then-take-away | 21:18 |
| ghostmansd | Yeah, I mean, I'd be really pissed if someone sent me patches which are kinda "intermediate state". There will be tons of code already, partly due to C verbosity, partly due to code generation, so people might already be annoyed. Add useless patches there, like "renamed a function" or "dropped stuff added ten commits ago", and people will hate you. | 21:20 |
| lkcl | it becomes unreadable for them | 21:32 |
| ghostmansd[m] | Exactly | 21:37 |
| ghostmansd[m] | Not that it was readable for me when I did it. 45 or so commits, done in different time and about different chunks. Sometimes linear, sometimes not. | 21:38 |
| ghostmansd[m] | So, I guess, there's a lot of to be cleaned up still. | 21:39 |
| ghostmansd[m] | After it's at least linear and evident, I think I'll finish the first revision, with svmagic pseudo-insn. | 21:40 |
