Folks, I really made a lot of effort, even asked somebody to help IRL, but I am tired.
I want develop Pywikibot, instead I am struggling with the working environment. Although git is hundred times as complicated as SVN and gerrit is a nightmare, my main problem is with git installing i18n submodule.
It causes two main problems:
- I cannot run tests. I have another copy of Pywikibot from downloaded zip, I can run tests there, but the same command fails in git copy.
- I cannot push my commits. For some reason an i18n part is always included which makes Jenkins fail. Now I can remove it after pushing, but Jenkins fails again, see https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/pywikibot/core/+/888745
I am very frustrated and disappointed, but I cannot do anything until
T329452 is solved somehow.
