what would you call a git commit that can no longer be reached from any branch or reference (for example because you ran `git commit --amend` or `git rebase`), but that you can still get to from `git reflog`?I've considered "orphan", "dangling", and "u...

@julian Did you know your post included a perfect illustration for the topic?
-
@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] completely unintentional!
But no real head detachment was meant to be implied lol
-
@julian @b0rk @mahryekuh This is an interesting issue though. Why are your mentions of Julia resolving as though a link to her profile was included in the status? Is this a known NodeBB -> Mastodon issue?
-
@nikclayton @julian @b0rk It’s resolving to account avatars. I’m seeing your photo above here as well.
-
@[email protected] sort of. It's not anything NodeBB is doing explicitly. Mastodon searches the note content for links, any links it can find, and turns them into a preview.
Specifically, Mastodon won't do it to mentions if you have some specific classes attached to the anchor (microformats). NodeBB doesn't do this, so Mastodon doesn't ignore it.
It's rather annoying behaviour on behalf of Mastodon, and one I'm not keen to bend over backwards to fix.
It'd be better form if Mastodon explicitly listened to the
attachment
property, as specified by the ActivityPub specification instead of departing from it in an odd way. -
@[email protected] @[email protected] I bet if NodeBB supported inline hashtags Mastodon would turn them into a rich preview too!
End of the day it's Mastodon's choice what to do. This is squarely a bug on their end, and while I can fix it, I will not because I think the fix requires me to add microformats just for the mention and nowhere else.
NodeBB uses schema.org already, so adding a separate data representation just for Mastodon is silly.
-
@julian Is there an open Mastodon issue for this? Or more details about the microformats that are missing?
As a client developer this is a poor experience for my users, which is why I'm digging into it to see what I can fix.
-
@julian hmm, https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/12149 looks related. Is it the same root cause?
-
@[email protected] @[email protected] that'd be the one.
"Partially a bug", what a joke.
-
@julian @nikclayton
I'm not a bug, not yet a feature. -
@[email protected] actually after reading Gargron's replies, while I still think it's bad form, there is one thing left to try.
I do use the
id
in the mention, not theurl
. The latter is actually more correct so I will attempt to make that change.Here's to hoping!
