# Rebase workflow This branch (`pixelated-scaling-option`) carries one feature commit on top of upstream KDE Dolphin (pixelated thumbnail scaling + hide-file-extensions). This file is only on this branch, never on `master`. ## Layout - `master` — pure mirror of `kde/master`. Never commit here. - `pixelated-scaling-option` — feature commit + this file. - Remote `kde` → `https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin.git` (upstream). - Remote `origin` → `ssh://katana/srv/git/dolphin.git` (cgit mirror). - Companion repo: `~/Documents/Repositories/arch-dolphin`, branch `pixelated-scaling-option`, holds the PKGBUILD and the generated patch. ## When a new Dolphin version is released ### 1. Update master to upstream ``` git fetch kde git checkout master git reset --hard kde/master git push --force-with-lease origin master ``` ### 2. Rebase the feature branch ``` git checkout pixelated-scaling-option git rebase master git push --force-with-lease origin pixelated-scaling-option ``` If conflicts hit `kfileitemmodel.cpp` or `viewsettingstab.{cpp,h}`: keep the genuine feature additions and take upstream for everything else. Do **not** let the resolution bring back deleted upstream code (e.g. the font-style warning UI, `expandUrlAfterInserted`, `RatingRole`) — that was the original bug we cleaned up in commit `41d6039c9`. ### 3. Pick the new release tag ``` git tag -l 'v*' | grep -E '^v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$' | sort -V | tail -5 ``` Pick the latest (e.g. `v26.08.0`). KDE only keeps recent tarballs on `download.kde.org`, so use a current one. ### 4. Regenerate the patch against that tag ``` FEATURE_SHA=$(git log --grep='pixel scaling and filename' -n 1 --format=%H pixelated-scaling-option) TAG=v26.08.0 # whatever you picked git checkout --detach "$TAG" git cherry-pick "$FEATURE_SHA" git diff HEAD~1 HEAD > ~/Documents/Repositories/arch-dolphin/pixelated-scaling-and-hide-extensions.patch git checkout pixelated-scaling-option ``` ### 5. Bump and rebuild the package ``` cd ~/Documents/Repositories/arch-dolphin git checkout pixelated-scaling-option # edit PKGBUILD: set pkgver= updpkgsums # updpkgsums will replace the patch's SKIP with a real sha; flip it back to SKIP makepkg -sf --skippgpcheck sudo pacman -U dolphin-*.pkg.tar.zst git add PKGBUILD pixelated-scaling-and-hide-extensions.patch git commit -m "upgpkg: : Upstream update" ```
