Confirmation

I have checked the documentation (README, Wiki, docstrings, etc)
I am checking these without reading them.
I have searched previous issues to see if my question is a duplicate.

Elpaca Version

installer: 0.7

Description

Remove ~/.emacs.d/elpaca
Start Emacs, and everything works fine
Wait a day
Run elpaca-fetch-all, then mark magit (and everything else) to be merged (m), and execute it (x).

It fails to merge, because of the git error shown below. The same happens for some other packages as well, such as ghub, forge and with-editor. I notice that these are all trying to use the melpa branch, but on a different system they're on main. I don't think there's anything interesting in my magit configuration, but you can see it here if you need to: https://codeberg.org/djm/dotfiles/src/branch/master/.emacs.d/lisp/init-git.el#L73

Thanks for taking the time to fill out a bug report.

My advice is to update your declarations to use the main branch for those packages. e.g.

(elpaca (magit :branch "main" :pre-build ("make" "info")))

@tarsius updated the MELPA recipes for several of his packages to
point to a CI-generated "melpa" branch, which includes a generated manual for MELPA builds. I'm unaware of any other advantage of this branch. Elpaca should build the manual on its own from the main branch just fine with the above pre-build step (optional, since the package should still build without the Info manual if the pre-build step is not included). Using the main branch will also avoid the incorrect version being detected for these packages as in #342.

Re progfolio/elpaca#343.

deejayem · 2024-08-23T06:54:54Z

@progfolio thank you for the response. Setting the branch resolves the issue.

It seems more like a workaround than a fix though - I think most people would expect to be able to add (use-package magit... to their config, and have everything work smoothly, without needing to specify the branch. So I will leave it up to you as to whether you want to close this, or if there's something that can be changed to improve things.

bodnarlajos · 2024-08-23T10:37:34Z

I have the same issue on win10.

My config

(elpaca (magit :branch "main" :pre-build ("make" "info")))

(use-package magit
  :ensure nil
  :commands magit-status)

What is wrong with my config and how I can solve it ?

progfolio · 2024-08-24T00:00:30Z

@progfolio thank you for the response. Setting the branch resolves the issue.

Glad to hear it.

It seems more like a workaround than a fix though - I think most people would expect to be able to add (use-package magit... to their config, and have everything work smoothly, without needing to specify the branch. So I will leave it up to you as to whether you want to close this, or if there's something that can be changed to improve things.

I can't control the recipes that are in the wild.
The only improvement would be for someone to create a menu which implements the altered recipes.
I'd prefer not to be on the hook for that, because it often involves packages which I don't use myself.
On the other hand, I usually end up being the one to do the research into how to fix the recipe when people ask for support here, so I may end up doing that eventually.

@bodnarlajos

I have the same issue on win10.

Please share text instead of screenshots in the future.

What is wrong with my config and how I can solve it ?

The error in the log means that the version of transient you have installed is not new enough to work with the version of git-commit you have installed (which is needed for magit).
You can either update Emacs to get a newer version of the built-in transient.el or install transient via Elpaca.
e.g. (elpaca (transient :branch "main"))

If that does not work for you, please fill out a separate issue ticket and I can work with you there.

I'm certainly willing and motivated to work with you on finding a solution. It's bed time now, but I'll come back here tomorrow evening.

bodnarlajos · 2024-08-24T09:22:17Z

I will try to install transient on Monday. If it wont solve the problem, I will let you know!
Thanks in advance!

tarsius · 2024-08-25T19:16:38Z

Initially I was going to suggest that elpaca and straight should ignore :branch if the value is "melpa". That would save users from having to add :branch "main".

But with that approach at least two issues remain. Users would still have to add :pre-build ("make" "info"), and make and texinfo would have to be installed locally. @hlissner mentioned at doomemacs/doomemacs#8007 (comment) that he wouldn't want that.

So I think it is better after all, if elpaca and straight continued to use the branch that is set in melpa's recipe.

As far as I understand, elpaca and straight currently essentially fetch the latest version/snapshot/commit using

git pull --ff-only || signal error

Have you considered using the same approach as melpa?:

git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin/the-branch

This wouldn't just help in this case. Minor history rewrites happen all the time, e.g., "amend to HEAD to fix a typo" is quite common.

For the emacsmirror I used to use the same approach as elpaca and straight currently use. Every time someone rewrote history and it happened to pull before and after the rewrite, the update would fail, and I would have to go look at the situation and resolve it manually.

That meant that I had to look at very minor and inconsequential rewrites all the time. To avoid that, I eventually switched to an approach similar to the one used by melpa.

bodnarlajos · 2024-08-26T08:10:23Z

I switched back to the package.el and I will try the elpaca later ...
Thanks for yours time!

- This is related to progfolio/elpaca#343 - solution is to point to the branch main and not the melpa one (for now)

tarsius · 2024-08-27T12:57:43Z

Have you considered using the same approach as melpa? [...]

@progfolio Have you seen this suggestion and does it sound like a workable solution?

progfolio · 2024-08-27T13:56:55Z

Have you considered using the same approach as melpa?

I have. If I go that route, I will have to implement a check which fails the order if the user has local changes prior to the hard reset. There will also be some minor refactoring needed with recipe resolution. I will experiment with it when I have time.

tarsius · 2024-08-28T10:51:41Z

Great, thanks!

tarsius · 2024-09-01T17:51:27Z

I'm checking the generated *.texi into main branches again.

I think my suggestion above still makes sense.

meedstrom · 2024-09-02T11:11:48Z

Just chiming in to agree with not treating "melpa" branch specially. I also use a branch with that name, for a different reason.

progfolio · 2024-09-02T11:15:53Z

Just chiming in to agree with not treating "melpa" branch specially. I also use a branch with that name, for a different reason.

I have no plans of adding any branch-name based heuristics for Elpaca's behavior, so nothing to worry about there.

Edit: Forget about this. I deleted my elpaca Directory and started "fresh". Now it works.
I'll leave this info here for those searching.

Even with all sub-packages pinned to the main branch, i'm not able to get magit installed anymore. My Config for that now looks like this:

(elpaca (magit :branch "main" :pre-build ("make" "info")))
(elpaca (forge :branch "main"))
(elpaca (ghub :branch "main"))
(elpaca (transient :branch "main"))
(elpaca (with-editor :branch "main"))

But transient and with-editor still fail to build

I also tried with just magit pinned or pulling the dependencies through use-package, both don't seem to work for me.

progfolio · 2024-09-03T13:37:00Z

Edit: Forget about this. I deleted my elpaca Directory and started "fresh". Now
it works. I'll leave this info here for those searching.

Please see: https://github.com/progfolio/elpaca/wiki/Troubleshooting#dont-delete-everything

Even with all sub-packages pinned to the main branch, i'm not able to get magit installed anymore. My Config for that now looks like this:
(elpaca (magit :branch "main" :pre-build ("make" "info")))
(elpaca (forge :branch "main"))
(elpaca (ghub :branch "main"))
(elpaca (transient :branch "main"))
(elpaca (with-editor :branch "main"))

This should no longer be necessary. The MELPA recipes have been reverted to track the main branch again:

melpa/melpa@a746296

What will be necessary is to M-x elpaca-update-menus for the MELPA menu so those updated recipes can be inherited from.

[2024-09-03 08:58:55] $git fetch --all -v
[2024-09-03 08:58:55] POST git-upload-pack (409 bytes)
[2024-09-03 08:58:55] Schwerwiegend: Konnte Remote-Referenz refs/heads/melpa nicht finden.

This is to be expected as the melpa branch no longer exists in those repositories.

The git-commit package is also distributed as part of magit now:
melpa/melpa@301c815

So the best course of action would be:

remove the explicit declarations for magit's dependencies from your init file (unless you need them for other customizations).
M-x elpaca-delete all of the above mentioned packages (magit, forge, ghub, transient, with-editor) and git-commit.
M-x elpaca-update-menus the elpaca-menu-melpa menu.
M-x restart-emacs

Elpaca should inherit from the updated recipes and install the packages based off those when Emacs is restarted.
