jchris or mattetti

[RicRoberts]

I was wondering.... which github fork of couchrest should I be using?
I can see that mattetti's has more recent updates, and has a higher
version number, but it looks like it's a fork of a repo by jchris.

... part of the reason I ask is because the bug described in this
other (old) thread only seems to happen on mattetti's fork.

The official repo is http://github.com/couchrest/couchrest/tree/master
Because of some errors I made earlier with couchrest git repos, I can't push my changes right now, but that's the official repo.

Hi Matt! Thanks for clearing that up!

Matt,

There appears to be an issue with couchrest-couchrest which prevents
the gem from being installed from github (it has never been built by
github).

glenn@macbook-pro /tmp/relax$ sudo gem install couchrest-couchrest
ERROR: could not find gem couchrest-couchrest locally or in a
repository
glenn@macbook-pro /tmp/relax$ gem sources
*** CURRENT SOURCES ***

http://gems.rubyforge.org/
http://gems.github.com
http://gems.opscode.com
http://gems.engineyard.com

And the list of built gems on GitHub does not contain the gem
couchrest-couchrest.

http://gems.github.com/list.html

Also, wouldn't it make more sense for your (and jchris's) repo to be
forks of the official repo, and not the other way around? To avoid
future confusion (I think this question of which is the canonical
version has been asked several times before). Perhaps if your fork is
the source of the official code it would make sense to force push your
repo to couchrest-couchrest, delete your fork, and re-create it from
this new canonical version. Just a thought...

Cheers,

G

I believe the exact problem is that Matt cannot push his changes to
couchrest/couchrest because of some funky rebasing. So not sure if a
force push has been tried, or would be wise.

But, here's a similar idea that might work...

1. Have Matt merge jchris's most recent 5 commits on couchrest/
couchrest into mattetti/couchrest
2. delete couchrest/couchrest and then re-fork from jchris/couchrest
instead.
3. Merge mattetti/couchrest into the new couchrest/couchrest master
4. Bump gemspec on couchrest/couchrest if gem was not built
automatically from the merge

So it looks like the couchrest github repo is now up to date, but the
Gemcutter version of the gem is still old (it's v0.33 but it doesn't
contain recent fixes/updates). Can anyone tell me where should I be
installing the gem from? Or should I just build it myself from the
github source?
