new update/upgrade script, ready for testing

[sdetweil]

@spitzlbergerj could u try this little script to see if I got it right?

curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash

it will check the status of the 3 lang settings,

LANG=
LANGUAGE=
and LC_ALL=

[spitzlbergerj]

@sdetweil thanks for your Help. Here are the results

git remote
github-desktop-darkniki
origin

git remote -v
github-desktop-darkniki https://github.com/darkniki/MagicMirror.git (fetch)
github-desktop-darkniki https://github.com/darkniki/MagicMirror.git (push)
origin  https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror.git (push)

and for the second post:

curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash
not english or locale not set, set git alias
alias git='LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 git'
Auf Branch master
Ihr Branch ist zu 'origin/master' um 117 Commits hinterher, und kann vorgespult werden.
  (benutzen Sie "git pull", um Ihren lokalen Branch zu aktualisieren)
Unversionierte Dateien:
  (benutzen Sie "git add <Datei>...", um die Änderungen zum Commit vorzumerken)

        core
        installers/dumpactivemodules.js

nichts zum Commit vorgemerkt, aber es gibt unversionierte Dateien (benutzen Sie "git add" zum Versionieren)

I hope this helps

Regards
Sepp

Good Morning @sdetweil

Here are the results from the just newly started command:

curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash
not english or locale not set, set git alias
alias git='LANG=en_US.UTF-8 git'
Auf Branch master
Ihr Branch ist zu 'origin/master' um 117 Commits hinterher, und kann vorgespult werden.
  (benutzen Sie "git pull", um Ihren lokalen Branch zu aktualisieren)
Unversionierte Dateien:
  (benutzen Sie "git add <Datei>...", um die Änderungen zum Commit vorzumerken)

        core
        installers/dumpactivemodules.js

nichts zum Commit vorgemerkt, aber es gibt unversionierte Dateien (benutzen Sie "git add" zum Versionieren)

The result is the same as last night, right?

Regards
Sepp

Hi there, I do not want to interfere, as Sam is most capable, but can you give the output of this command?

locale -a

And tell if you see English or German output for those 2 commands?

LC_ALL=C git status

LC_MESSAGES=C git status

[sdetweil]

@evroom i remove the alias so, the output will not tell us anything…

I was hoping there was some priority of the settings…

LC_ALL doers override LANGUAGE…
but LANG doesn’t appear to be dynamically changeable per command

try the testlang script again, the locale doc says this should work…

It will tell you if you get English as output, despite any language & variable settings.

I temporary changed the locale to de_DE.utf8 for testing and git status gave me German output.
Then I did LC_ALL=C git status and it replied in English.
LC_MESSAGES=C git status continued to reply in German.

Just FYI, perhaps it will help you, perhaps not :-)

cool… thats what the test script does… sets alias for git to ‘LC_ALL=C git’

I think I will just force alias

[sdetweil]

@spitzlbergerj great, thanks… u can run the update script again now…

if it says already at 2.10, the change the parm from apply to force

@sdetweil

Sam,

for some reason your testlang.sh script, using alias, is still responding in German, whereas the plain command responses in English:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | bash
Auf Branch master
Ihr Branch ist auf demselben Stand wie 'origin/master'.
:
:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ LC_ALL=C git status
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.
:
:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ git status
Auf Branch master
Ihr Branch ist auf demselben Stand wie 'origin/master'.
:
:

Also interesting; using sh iso bash:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ curl -sL https://www.dropbox.com/s/80fevh39jme3iig/testlang.sh?dl=0 | sh
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

EDIT - recommendations / friendly advice:

1/ Use #!/bin/bash in your script, not ~/bin/bash
2/ Do not alias the git command, just plain LC_ALL=C git status

I am on 2.10.0, but can try your testlang.sh script when needed.
Will keep the language settings on German for a while.
