On Windows platform, invoking printenv.py directly via hook is
problematic, because:
- unless binding between *.py suffix and python runtime, application
selector dialog is displayed, and running test is blocked at each
printenv.py invocations
- it isn't safe to assume binding between *.py suffix and python
runtime, because application binding is easily broken
For example, installing IDE (VisualStudio with Python Tools, or
so) often requires binding between source files and IDE itself.
This patch invokes printenv.py via sh -c for test portability. This is
a kind of follow up for 9e4331825bea, which eliminated explicit
"python" for printenv.py. There are already other 'sh -c "printenv.py"'
in *.t files, and this fix should be reasonable.
This changes were confirmed in cases below:
- without any application binding for *.py suffix
- with binding between *.py suffix and VisualStudio
This patch also replaces "echo + redirection" style with "heredoc"
style, because:
- hook command line is parsed by cmd.exe as shell at first, and
- single quotation can't quote arguments on cmd.exe, therefore,
- "printenv.py foobar" should be quoted by double quotation, but
- nested quoting (or tricky escaping) isn't readable
Some systems (like FreeBSD jails) use something other than 127.0.0.1
for localhost, and it's not safe to assume it'll always be the same
width. Using sed with a replacement like this sidesteps the problem.
chg currently does not support hg serve -d. It has a quick path testing if the
command is hg serve -d and fallbacks to hg if so. But the test only works if
"serve" is the first argument since the test wants to avoid false positives
(for example, "-r serve" is different).
This patch reorders "hg server" commands in tests, making them chg friendly.
Sometimes a txnclose or changegroup hook wants to iterate through all
the changesets in transaction: in that situation usually the revset
`$HG_NODE:` is used to select the revisions. Unfortunately this revset
sometimes may contain too many changesets because we don't have the
write lock while the hook runs newer changes may be added to
repository in the meantime.
That's why there is a need for extra variable carrying the information about
the last change in the transaction.
We want to keep both code paths tested. The test is a bit too extensive to
simply introduce dual testing in it so we make a copy for each protocol
version.
