We're going to make the 'c' policy more strict, where no missing attribute
will be allowed. Since we want to run 'hg bisect' without rebuilding the C
extension modules, we'll need a looser policy for development environment.
The default for system installation isn't changed.
Note that the current 'c' policy is practically 'allow'-ish as we have lots
of adhoc fallbacks to pure functions.
Previously, verify only checks "rawsize == len(rawtext)", if
"len(fl.read()) != fl.size()".
With flag processor, "len(fl.read()) != fl.size()" does not necessarily mean
"rawsize == len(rawtext)". So we may miss a useful check.
This patch removes the "if len(fl.read()) != fl.size()" condition so the
rawsize check is always performed.
With the condition removed, "fl.read(n)" looks unnecessary so a comment was
added to explain the side effect is wanted.
The end goal is to make it possible to avoid potential expensive fctx.data()
when unnecessary.
While memctx is useful for creating new file contexts, there are many cases
where we could reuse an existing raw file revision (amend, histedit, rebase,
process a revision constructed by a remote peer, etc). The overlayfilectx
class is made to support such reuse cases. Together with a later patch, hash
calculation and expensive flag processor could be avoided.
The new method returns the low-level revlog flag. We already have "rawdata"
so a "rawflags" makes sense.
Both "rawflags" and "rawdata" will be used in a later patch.
Make basefilectx._flags a property cache, so basefilectx.flags() could be
reasonably reused. This avoids code duplication between memfilectx and a
class added in a later patch.
Graft used findmissingrevs to find the candidates for graft duplicates in the
destination. That function operates with the constraint:
1. N is an ancestor of some node in 'heads'
2. N is not an ancestor of any node in 'common'
For our purpose, we do however have to work correctly in cases where the graft
set has multiple roots or where merges between graft ranges are skipped. The
only changesets we can be sure doesn't have ancestors that are grafts of any
changeset in the graftset, are the ones that are common ancestors of *all*
changesets in the graftset. We thus need:
2. N is not an ancestor of all nodes in 'common'
This change will graft more correctly, but it will also in some cases make
graft slower by making it search through a bigger and unnecessary large sets of
changes to find duplicates. In the general case of grafting individual or
linear sets, we do the same amount of work as before.
"merge-tools" help topic has described that the merge of the file
fails if no tool is found to merge binary or symlink, since
9da9bced2226 (or Mercurial 1.7), which based on (already removed)
MergeProgram wiki page.
But even at that revision, and of course now, merge of the file
doesn't fail automatically for binary/symlink. ":prompt" (or
equivalent logic) is used, if there is no appropriate tool
configuration for binary/symlink.
As an aside, I'm having trouble parsing the help text meaning for HG when it is
unset or empty. How can it be the frozen name or searched if it is empty?
This may be too subtle of a change to get the point across, but when I first
read the original text, I thought maybe the pager would only be invoked if
writing more than a screenful. The distinction between this and a pager that
simply exits after printing less than a screenful is important on Windows, given
the inability of `more` to color output.
Even though I figured this out a few weeks ago, I was initially puzzled where
the color went when I upgraded to 4.2 on a different Windows machine. Let's
point users reading the help into the right direction.
I wonder if we should be even more explicit about cmd.exe/MSYS/pager/color
interplay, but at least all of the breadcrumbs are here (I think).
This option was never released except for a release candidate. Dropping
compatibility with this option will free the 'pager.enable' config option for
other usage in the future.
This aligns with what we do for color (see cea7a760c58d). Pager is a central
enough notion that having the master config in the [ui] section makes senses. It
will helps with consistency, discoverability. It will also help having a simple
and clear example hgrc mentioning pager.
The previous form of the option had never been released in a non-rc version but
we keep it around for convenience. If both are set, 'ui.pager' take priority.
Previously, 'ui.color=yes' meant "always show color", While
"ui.color=auto" meant "use color automatically when it appears
sensible".
This feels problematic to some people because if an administrator has
disabled color with "ui.color=off", and a user turn it back on using
"color=on", it will get surprised (because it breaks their output when
redirected to a file.) This patch changes ui.color=true to only move the
default value of --color from "never" to "auto".
I'm not really in favor of this changes as I suspect the above case will
be pretty rare and I would rather keep the logic simpler. However, I'm
providing this patch to help the 4.2 release in the case were others
decide to make this changes.
Users that want to force colors without specifying --color on the
command line can use the 'ui.formatted' config knob, which had to be
enabled in a handful of tests for this patch.
Nice summary table (credit: Augie Fackler)
That is, before this patch:

(if --color is specified, it always clobbers the setting in [ui])

"Churn" is not the useful example we have, but this is the one used in
'hg help config.extensions'. As we need something to replace the deprecated
'pager' extension in the example config, we are adding 'churn'.
This enables chg to replace a server socket in an atomic way:
1. bind to a temp address
2. listen
3. rename
Currently 3 happens before 2 so a client may see the socket file but fails
to connect to it.
This completes our rename of internal revlog methods to
distinguish between low-level raw revlog data "segments" and
higher-level, per-revision "chunks."
perf.py has been updated to consult both names so it will work
against older Mercurial versions.
Currently, "chunk" is overloaded in revlog terminology to mean
multiple things. One of them refers to a segment of raw data from
the revlog. This commit renames various methods only used within
revlog.py to have "segment" in their name instead of "chunk."
While I was here, I also made the names more descriptive. e.g.
"_loadchunk()" becomes "_readsegment()" because it actually does
I/O.
The current function ('writebundle') is focussing on getting an existing
changegroup to disk. It is no easy ways to includes more part in the generated
bundle2. So we introduce a slightly higher level function that is fed the
'outgoing' object (that defines the bundled spec) and the bundlespec parameters
(to control the changegroup generation and inclusion of other parts).
This is creating the third logic dedicated to create a consistent bundle2 (the
other 2 are the push code and the getbundle code). We should probably reconcile
them at some points but they all takes different types of input. So we need to
introduce an intermediate "object" that each different input could be converted
to. Such unified "bundle2 specification" could be fed to some unified code.
We start by having the `hg bundle` related code on its own to helps defines its
specific needs first. Once the common and specific parts of each logic will be
known we can start unification.
If a marker has no parent information, parents field is set to None, which
caused TypeError. I think this shouldn't normally happen, but somehow
I have such marker in my repo.
We point out at the help of the config option for user who wants to learn more
about the possible config value.
The suggested command returns some other extra (color related) results, but this
is bug to fix outside of the freeze.
The --color option is described to accept "boolean, always, auto,
never, or debug". Let's use a similar description for ui.color. Also
fix the formatting to use double quotes as we seem to use for about
half the values in config.txt (the other half uses double
backticks). Also use uppercase Boolean for consistency within the
file.
Acquiring lock by vfs.makelock() and getting lock holder (aka
"locker") information by vfs.readlock() aren't atomic action.
Therefore, failure of the former doesn't ensure success of the latter.
Before this patch, lock is unintentionally acquired, if ENOENT
causes failure of vfs.readlock() while 5 times retrying, because
lock._trylock() returns to caller silently after retrying, and
lock.lock() assumes that lock._trylock() returns successfully only if
lock is acquired.
In this case, lock symlink (or file) isn't created, even though lock
is treated as acquired in memory.
To avoid this issue, this patch makes lock._trylock() raise
LockHeld(EAGAIN) at the end of it, if lock isn't acquired while
retrying.
An empty "locker" meaning "busy for frequent lock/unlock by many
processes" might appear in an abortion message, if lock acquisition
fails. Therefore, this patch also does:
- use '%r' to increase visibility of "locker", even if it is empty
- show hint message to explain what empty "locker" means
Acquiring lock by vfs.makelock() and getting lock holder (aka
"locker") information by vfs.readlock() aren't atomic action.
Therefore, failure of the former doesn't ensure success of the latter.
Before this patch, lock is unintentionally acquired, if
self.parentlock is None (this is default value), and lock._readlock()
returns None for ENOENT at vfs.readlock(), because these None are
recognized as equal to each other.
In this case, lock symlink (or file) isn't created, even though lock
is treated as acquired in memory.
To avoid this issue, this patch retries lock acquisition immediately,
if lock._readlock() returns None "locker".
This issue will be covered by a test added in subsequent patch,
because simple emulation of ENOENT at vfs.readlock() easily causes
another issue. "raising ENOENT only at the first vfs.readlock()
invocation" is too complicated for unit test, IMHO.
Another raising PeerTransportError for "incomplete response" in
httppeer.py uses this (changed) hint message. This unification reduces
cost of translation.
There are some paragraphs, which aren't rendered in online help as
expected because of indentation and literal blocking issues.
- hgext/rebase.py
- paragraph before example code ends with ":", which treats
subsequent indented paragraphs as normal block
=> replace ":" with "::" to treat subsequent paragraphs as literal block
- help/pager.txt
- paragraph before a list of --pager option values ends with "::",
which treats subsequent indented paragraphs as literal block
=> replace "::" with ":" to treat subsequent paragraphs as normal block
- the second line of explanation for no/off --pager option value is
indented incorrectly (this also causes failure of "make" in doc)
=> indent correctly
- help/revisions.txt
- explanation following example code of "[revsetalias]" section
isn't suitable for literal block
=> un-indent explanation paragraph to treat it as normal block
- indentation of "For example" before example of tag() revset
predicate matching is meaningless
- descriptive text for tag() revset predicate matching isn't
suitable for literal block
=> un-indent concatenated two paragraphs to treat them as normal block
