But I push quite often, so there was only a small number of things that aren't on GitHub.

All I had to do was to clone a new repository from GitHub, and then use `diff -r' on each sub-directory to see what the differences were.

at what point did the power cut for you, I mean, what was the state of the repository at that time?

Ugh, missed out on I don't know how much in this channel due to IRC's shitty protocols

beach and I exchanged good mornings, and then he and ck_ discussed git corrupting itself when his computer crashed.

::notify heisig What kinds of queries to the host environment do you need to be able to do?

heisig: Shinmera said 3 hours, 38 minutes ago: What kinds of queries to the host environment do you need to be able to do?

Shinmera: Information about variables, functions, tags, blocks and optimize declarations. And host specific information, if available. For example, SBCL can mark variables and functions as deprecated.

Shinmera
I'm not quite sure, but it occurs to me that part of this information might already be available through https://github.com/shinmera/definitions or might be useful for it.

Shinmera: Thanks. But if I read it correctly, it only provides access to toplevel definitions, not lexical ones.
11:00:19
Shinmera
Yes, a protocol for lexical ones is something I've been thinking about for a while. :)
11:01:54
Shinmera
For Definitions I'd need this information to be available at run-time, not within the compilation context.
11:02:32
Shinmera
I'm assuming that currently no implementation would give me that information, but anyway.

You can pass NIL as environment designator to trucler-native to specify the global environment. Would that be enough?
11:12:56
Shinmera
If that would allow me to retrieve, say, restarts that are declared within a function, sure.
