Topic: Porting status for lean3 core
Heather Macbeth (Oct 29 2022 at 17:39):
We have the port status page
https://github.com/leanprover-community/mathlib/wiki/mathlib4-port-status
for files from mathlib3, but is there a place to check the status of files from lean3 core? Just now I wanted to use
docs#int.linear_order
which in lean3 is in core, init.data.int.order
. (Not to be confused with the more advanced file data.int.order
in mathlib3.). It doesn't seem to be in mathlib4's Mathlib.Init.Data.Int.*
, but other than looking in that folder I wasn't sure how to determine the status.
Heather Macbeth (Oct 29 2022 at 18:30):
In this case I tracked down Int.LinearOrder
to Mathlib.Init.Data.Int.Basic
, but still curious about the general principle.
Scott Morrison (Oct 29 2022 at 22:13):
No, at the moment there is no equivalent of #port-status for Lean 3 core. I had been hoping that it was a (small) finite amount of work to finish porting that, and the overhead expense of tracking wouldn't be worth it, because we'd be done so soon.
Scott Morrison (Oct 29 2022 at 22:13):
However it's looking like this was incorrect.
Scott Morrison (Oct 29 2022 at 22:14):
mathlib4#512 ran into a similar problem, when I realised that Mathlib.Init.Logic
is only a partial / ad-hoc port.
Scott Morrison (Oct 29 2022 at 23:33):
Actually, I retract that, Mathlib.Init.Logic
is complete.
Mario Carneiro (Oct 29 2022 at 23:59):
Yeah I did Init.Logic
in mathlib4#490
Mario Carneiro (Oct 30 2022 at 00:00):
I think we do need to track these
Mario Carneiro (Oct 30 2022 at 00:01):
I think it will certainly be smaller scale but from another POV that means we can use it to test our porting infrastructure
Heather Macbeth (Oct 30 2022 at 00:04):
Currently Mathlib.Init.Data.Int.Basic
contains one instance from init.data.int.order
and two lemmas from data.int.basic
. Would it make sense to be very strict about filenames, thus moving these to Mathlib.Init.Data.Int.Order
and Mathlib.Data.Int.Basic
respectively? This would ensure that people know where to look, even without having a full tracking system.
Mario Carneiro (Oct 30 2022 at 00:19):
Yes, we should be strict about positioning lemmas, although there are some places where I think we can untangle dependencies from mathlib that are currently causing pain which will be hindered by strictly following the mathlib order. One way to fix this is to say that mathlib4 is allowed to have new files, and old (original mathlib) files may import new files, so if you move a definition to a new file and import it from the old file then that gives the flexibility to change things.
Kevin Buzzard (Oct 30 2022 at 07:05):
I've ported init.data.bool.basic and init.data.bool.lemmas, I hope to open the PR today
