Hi Antonio, hi community

You've requested deletion of ipython-7 package, mainaned by me with 2 comments:

1. Duplicate of python-prompt_toolkit 2. absurd commit messages

You mean I've requested deletion of ipython-7 as a duplicate of ipython, and of python-prompt_toolkit-2 as a duplicate of python-prompt_tolkit

1. Yes, it's duplicate, but it wasn't at a time of publishing. I'll tell you more: community was long behind AUR at that moment because it needs more time to go from upstream to community and less time from upstream to AUR.

Regardless of the original situation - they are now clear duplicates.

2. Comments are absolutely random, but… I just think that when there are no important changes in repository, just version bumps then no comment can make sense. Of course I'm absolutely ready to rewrite history to make them just normal boring comments.

No matter how unimportant or boring they may seem to you, relevant commit messages are fundamental for any kind of serious public repository. Using such random, facetious commit messages is unacceptable. In any case, that's not the main reason for the deletion request.

So relay that relevant information.

git commit -m 'upstream release'

( https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/any/aurpublish/ will even cleverly insert this exact commit message for you, if it detects a pkgver bump.)

Instead of using commit messages which relay the message "I consider both myself and my packages to be a laughingstock, useful only for providing demented humor by way of insulting my own intelligence".

...

Do you even realize that site is *satire*?

Of course I do ☺ You know it's even a bit offensive to think about your partner that he is *such* dumb.

Your claim that there is "just version bumps" is factually incorrect:

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/PKGBUILD?h=ipython-7&id=42c1ff5d25a9ddc034154b5651483076658b6ec5

Which is still version bump with added dependency. I wouldn't need to change pkgrel if I would add this dependency along with version bump. Anyways I accept your critics and going to rewrite history of my packages.

Oh hell, AUR declines history rewrites.

I'm deeply sorry, folks ☹ I didn't think that this is irreversible (this is git, it's about history rewriting!). How can I fix what I've done?

You can't. It also doesn't matter because I've accepted the two requests for reason of duplicate. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_submission_guidelines#Rules_of_subm... Alad
