Package Control: A full-featured package manager

[bizoo]

Didn't found the syntax for the branch, I must be blind.
Anyway, I suppose that an entry in the config file to specify the branch is required, I'm not sure that we don't want default branch everytime.

Thanks.

I think that having Package Control only pull from default when you specify a BitBucket URL is perfectly fine. If you want to use a version in a branch then you can clone the repo, checkout the branch and Package Control will keep it up to date with the remote for you.

Didn't know you could do that, nice.

Thanks for the update.

Oups (on upgrade command):

This is the JSON I receive, no 'changesets' records

I changed all:

Code: Select all

last_commit['changesets'][0]

by:

Code: Select all

last_commit

And apparently it works.

I'll get a fix out for that today. Thanks for the report.

Is this a package manger bug or sublime bug? When I start sublime and i'm not online I get an error box saying it couldn't fetch the repository url and then sublime doesn't load. I have to kill sublime in the task manager and start it again.

I'm not sure what the issue is there. I did just release version 1.2.7 so try to upgrade to that if you can. If you do continue to have problems, please open a ticket at https://github.com/wbond/sublime_package_control/issues since there is no notification system here on the forum.

As much as I like Package Control it throws a series of errors from time to time on ST2 startup.

The error it throws is:

Code: Select all

Package Control: Error downloading repository. HTTP error 503
downloading
INSERT URL OF WHATEVER PACKAGE IT'S FAILING TO LOAD

Any suggestions as to what's going on and how to fix it from freaking out?

A 503 error means that the service is temporarily unavailable. The way to work around it is to tell me you are having the problem, at which point I'll look into enhancing the retry functionality to handle 503s in addition to timeouts. Is it GitHub that is triggering the 503s? What platform are you running on?

I'll try to do this later today. Hopefully in the near future I'll also be rolling out a centralized cache of package info that will help prevent issues like this, but also drastically improve the performance of Package Control.

I've been having a similar issue, using OS X Lion 10.7.1 and the latest dev version of ST2. This error pops up on start:

Package Control: Error downloading repository. HTTP error 404 downloading https://api.github.com/repos/Kronuz/SublimeLinter.git.

When I do Package Control: Discover, the error pops up again, and if I hit enter on any of the packages, it freezes ST2.

edit: I went in and removed SublimeLinter from Package Control Settings - User (there were two entries -- even when I removed one it was still giving the error). Once I removed both of them, and re-installed SublimeLinter using Package Control, it worked fine. I remember the previous time I installed it, I had to enter the Git URL myself. Now I just have this in my User Settings file:
