Unlike other styles, paper and coal had only one link to current revision: in
the sidebar. Since those links now use symbolic revisions after 4b263b99440b,
it's nice to have a link that allows going from /rev/tip to /rev/<tip hash>,
for instance. Let's make the node hash in the page header that new link.
Let's make paper (and coal, since it borrows so much from paper) templates use
symbolic revision in navigation links.
The majority of links (log, filelog, annotate, etc) still use node hashes.
Some pages don't have permanent links to current node hash (so it's not very
easy to go from /rev/tip to /rev/<tip hash>), this will be addressed in future
patches.
This gives all the benefits introduced before for file source view, namely
code selection without line numbers and correct indents, highlighting line
which is linked to, long lines wrapping.
Implementation strategy is also the same as for file source view: all the
lines are put in a sigle pre tag with span's for each line. Correct line
numbering (same as before this patch) is achieved with nested CSS counters.
In order to use this, add a [websub] section to your configuration and add
websub expressions such as:
italic = s/\b_(\S+)_\b/<i>\1<\/i>/
bold = s/\*\b(\S+)\b\*/<b>\1<\/b>/
issues = s|issue(\d+)|<a href="http://bts.example.org/issue\1">issue\1</a>|i
bugzilla = s!((?:bug|b=|(?=#?\d{4,}))(?:\s*#?)(\d+))!<a href="http://bz.selenic.com/\2">\1</a>!i
This also adds documentation (proofed by Kevin!) to the config help section.
Without this, repository paths or names containing e.g. & characters or html
tags yielded strange results, possibly allowing cross-site scripting attacks.
The purpose of this change is to make it much easier to navigate up the
repository tree when the hg web server is used to serve more than one
repository.
A "URL breadcrumb" is a path where each of the path items can be clicked to go
to the corresponding path page.
This lets you go up the folder hierarchy very quickly. For example, when showing
the list of repositories in http://myserver/myteams/myprojects, the following
"breadcrumb" will be shown:
Mercurial > myteams > myprojects
Clicking on "myprojects" reloads the page. Clicking on "myteams" goes up one
folder. Clicking on the leftmost "Mercurial" goes to the server root.
This "breadcrumb" also appears on all repository pages. For example on the
summary page of the repository at http://myserver/myteams/myprojects/myrepo the
following will be shown:
Mercurial > myteams > myprojects > myrepo / summary
This change has been applied to all templates that already had a link to the
main repository page (i.e. gitweb, monoblue, paper and coal) plus to the index
page of the spartan template.
In order to make the breadcumb links stand out the some of the template styles
have been customized.
Adds new web command to the core, ``comparison``, which enables colorful
side-by-side change display, which for some might be much easier to work with
than the standard line diff output. The idea how to implement comes from the
SonicHq extension.
The web interface gets a new link to call the comparison functionality. It lets
users configure the amount of context lines around change blocks, or to show
full files - check help (also in this changeset) for details and defaults. The
setting in hgrc can be overridden by adding ``context=<value>`` to the request
query string. The comparison creates addressable lines, so as to enable sharing
links to specific lines, just as standard diff does.
Incorporates updates to all web related styles.
Known limitations:
* the column diff is done against the first parent, just as the standard diff
* this change allows examining diffs for single files only (as I am not sure if
examining the whole changeset in this way would be helpful)
* syntax highlighting of the output changes is not performed (enabling the
highlight extension has no influence on it)
While Chrome, Firefox, and IE 6+ support the current date format being
passed to Date(), Safari doesn't:
> new Date('Mon Oct 24 13:58:01 2011 +0200')
Invalid Date
However, the rfc822date format--officially supported by
ECMAScript[1]--does work:
> new Date('Mon, 24 Oct 2011 13:58:01 +0200')
Mon Oct 24 2011 04:58:01 GMT-0700 (PDT)
This change replaces all instances of {date|date} in HTML with
{date|rfc822date}. For elements that only have the "age" class,
there's no outward change for users with JavaScript enabled. For
elements with both the "age" and "date" classes, the full date
displayed uses the new format.
Tested in IE 6, Safari 5.1.1, Google Chrome 15, and Firefox 7.0.1.

This change complements the existing web/logourl setting, and lets the user
customize the logo image that is shown on many of the hg server pages.
If this setting is not set, hglogo.png is used.
This allow safe caching of the pages by the browser and still display the right
amount of elapsed time upon page refresh.
If javascript is disabled, absolute time is displayed, leaving it readable.
All the templates have been updated.
Clicking on the logo image/text in the hgweb interface brings the
user to the Mercurial project page. The majority of users expect that
this would bring them to the top level index. I have added a new template
variable named `logourl' which allows an administrator to change this
behavior. To stay compatible with existing behavior, `logourl' will
default to http://mercurial.selenic.com/. This change is very useful in
large installations where jumping to the index is common.
Remove the `install_package_data' subclass of `install_data' and use
the `package_data' functionality provided by distutils instead. As
package data must be located within the package directory, the data
files are now generated in the build directory.
To simplify the functionality of this change, the top-level `doc' and
`templates' directories have been moved into the `mercurial' package
directory.
