@vahnj I ran the code you told me to, and it created a branch so far as I can tell?

It looked good, but I've never really worked with branches

@spiderrobotpig sorry my bad! yeah there's one more step after that, which is to change back to master:

git checkout master

*then* you can cherry-pick the changes you want!

@vahnj Oh no haha

Okay, I'll do that then >^<

@spiderrobotpig sorry about that >_<;

@vahnj It's no biggie. I wish I was better with this stuff, then I wouldn't have to bug people all the time

@vahnj Oh I have already goofed I think

all my stuff is gone locally haha

At least I haven't pushed changes yet >^<

@spiderrobotpig !!!!!

what do you mean it's gone, locally?

@vahnj So like, I had themes and stuff, but when I cd'd into the directory that hold my themes they were all gone.

Looks like somehow I just overwrote my stuff with yours somehow

@vahnj That's less of a hassle to fix in the long run, but I have no idea how I managed that

@spiderrobotpig Did you have them saved in your git repository? It should not have overwrote them without complaining that there's conflicts if you didn't

@vahnj Yeah, everything was saved in the repo, and that's the part I'm confused about?

Because when I tried to just patch over the whitelisting stuff, it gave me a bunch of errors.

So...I have no idea at this point. Just hoping this compile works so I can deal with everything later

@spiderrobotpig ok hang on

what commands have you run since checking out the master branch

@vahnj So, I did the git checkout -b awoo-master awoo/master

Then it switched me to a new branch. Then I did status, and it said I was up-to-date, but that app/javascript/mastodon/features/direct_timeline wasn't tracked, so I added and committed it

The status said I was up to date, so I ran the precompile

@spiderrobotpig OK, so you didn't run the checkout back to your original master branch it sounds like.

You're going to want to do that, unless you want to run glitch.social. (Are you already running it?)

@vahnj Yeah, I'm running some stuff from them and cybre.space, so it wouldn't be a huge deal tbh?

@vahnj Both are in my remote repos, I mean

@spiderrobotpig It's gonna be safer to pull stuff on top of your existing code imo.

Let's start back over and I'll give you a bunch of commands. Let me plan it out

@spiderrobotpig Also, if you checked in your changes to the awoo.space branch, you are going to need to cherry-pick that commit. What's the top entry when you run "git log"?

@vahnj is the top the last one? cos thats: commit 7f0320cf07e82abdd5f1e2e8f2f9d381538a2014
Author: Crom <james.vogon@gmail.com>

The top one I see is: commit 3f965c51cb5770c50be84e09a4129d27ffe7a981
Author: Samantha Ghraves <samanthaghraves@gmail.com>
Date: Sun Jan 28 22:07:52 2018 +0000

more stuff

@spiderrobotpig oh dear

you mentioned you committed some changes that had been left over, right? is that what commit 3f965c51cb5770c50be84e09a4129d27ffe7a981 is?

@vahnj Yes.

How bad did I fuck up, tell it to me straight doc

@vahnj Also, the site being up is a misnomer, everything gives me a 500 haha

@vahnj Sounds good.

The site is at least up again, so that helps
