05:17:05 <chris> gjanssens: hi!
05:17:36 <gjanssens> Hi chris
05:17:36 <gncbot> gjanssens: Sent 2 weeks, 0 days, 10 hours, and 30 minutes ago: <fell> Can you update https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Git#Git_Flow? I had started with the branch names, but jralls found other issues.
05:17:37 <gncbot> gjanssens: Sent 2 days and 8 hours ago: <chris> #1617 do you have any glaring views about this? 3 new options...
05:17:50 <chris> bait :)
05:17:59 <gjanssens> :)
05:18:13 <gjanssens> Will try to review asap
05:18:31 <chris> np. I was away 2wks and took another week to recover from jet lag
05:22:27 <chris> added a last comment on 1617
05:47:43 <gjanssens> chris: I have to admit, that PR is happening far away from my area of interest :(
05:48:18 <gjanssens> I can understand it's closer to yours though given all the work you have spent in the past on the trep engine refactoring.
05:49:36 <gjanssens> The big questions I always ask while considering adding an option are these:
05:50:12 <gjanssens> 1. Is what the option adds useful (very basic, and usually the answer is yes, but still worth asking)
05:50:45 <gjanssens> 2. Is the option introducing alternative behaviour and if so, it the original behaviour still desired ?
05:51:20 <gjanssens> 3. Can the code be altered instead that the desirable parts of the old and new behaviour can be exposed at the same time
05:52:12 <gjanssens> 4. Is adding the option in this format the best way to introduce the new behaviour ?
05:53:10 <gjanssens> In the case of the running total, I have no strong opinion on this. I can see running totals as useful (question 1).
05:54:26 <gjanssens> Do we want to make it optional ? Probably, considering all the other tweaks there are possible in the transaction report.
05:55:09 <gjanssens> Is this the best place and format for this option ? That could be questioned, though the same question applies to subtotals in general.
05:56:28 <gjanssens> That is, while looking from a distance, the first that pops to mind is that the subtotal/running subtotal are really toggles to add or remove columns from the report. All other columns are managed on the Display tab.
06:00:28 <gjanssens> There is also a running sum there, so clearly there is some overlap in all these options.
06:17:25 <gjanssens> Have anyway added my first question to the PR...
07:53:22 <chris> gjanssens thanks. I suppose a trep-specific Running Total is "useful" (cf the account's running balance) and I stirred the pot by asking which running total to display - the primary secondary or overall running total. and he wrote up code to display all of them lol

08:56:48 <warlord> fell, looks like win32 builder needs some cleanup -- that's a manual process but anyone with access can do it, like gjanssens or jralls

17:58:22 <CDB-Man> hmm, I changed from maint 4.14 to master 5.0 build today, and it says finance quoite note installed properly...
18:02:52 <CDB-Man> figured it out, the solution was to run the install script again
18:03:27 <CDB-Man> or not... no prices were downloaded
18:08:01 <CDB-Man> [2023.05.06 15:58:14] <CDB-Man> my $YIND_URL_HEAD = 'https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v6/finance/quote?symbols='; -- this is still there, and its not throwing any errors
18:08:06 <CDB-Man> its just the price db isnt upodating
18:08:41 <CDB-Man> currencies from alphavantage are updating
18:08:43 <CDB-Man> but not stocks
18:11:48 <fell> CDB-Man, there is no current master branch anymore. Your OS?
18:11:56 <CDB-Man> Win10
18:12:12 <CDB-Man> [ ] gnucash-5.0-2023-03-27-git-5.0+.setup.exe 2023-03-27 04:04 154M
18:12:18 <CDB-Man> from here: https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/master/
18:12:50 <CDB-Man> was previously on https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/maint/ gnucash-4.14-2023-03-26-git-4.14+.setup.exe 2023-03-26 03:35 143M
18:12:55 <fell> most recent there is https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/stable/gnucash-5.1-2023-05-09-git-5.1-15-gd696f0cfcb+.setup.exe
18:12:57 <CDB-Man> which had no issues
18:14:32 <CDB-Man> ah, new folder.... called stable
18:14:58 <CDB-Man> didnt think to look there, my favourites bookmarks go directly into master and maint
18:15:28 <fell> master will be future and maint is now stable.
18:16:22 <CDB-Man> I see a "releases" folder that looks to have master releases?
18:19:01 <fell> No it has releases. After the 5.0 release,teh master branch expired.
18:20:16 <CDB-Man> sorry, what I mean is, "master will be future", meaning there will be a further new folder to be created named "future"? which serves a different purpose than the releases folder? (ie i thought (incorrectly?) that master and releases are one and the same)
18:20:41 <CDB-Man> running 5.1-15 now... lets see if prices update
18:20:54 <CDB-Man> success.
18:23:29 <fell> Releaases are usually once per quarter, while stable should be daily, After the first 6.0 featuregets implemented, furure will start also on a daily base.
18:24:18 <CDB-Man> gotcha
