Hi all,
A new version of Scap has been released and with it comes a few changes.
tl;dr highlights:
* Old scap bin stubs (e.g., /usr/bin/sync-file, /usr/bin/sync-dir,
/usr/bin/mwversionsinuse, etc) will now exit 1.
Subcommands are now the only way to interact with scap, i.e., `sync-file` is
now `scap sync-file`.
* Scap3 (non-mediawiki) deploys will now announce deploys in IRC -- you
can specify a message for IRC via:
scap deploy 'A message for the SAL'
* Scap lockfile errors now show you (a) who has the lockfile and (b) their
deploy message. The output you'll see if another person is deploying
looks like:
sync-file failed: <LockFailedError> Failed to acquire lock
"/var/lock/scap"; owner is "thcipriani"; reason is "scap 3.4 sync
file"
You can see a full changelog for both the 3.4.0-1 and the 3.3.1-1 release on
phabricator[0]. If you spot any issues, file a phabricator task tagged with the
`Scap3` project[1].
