- move the obscure parts into the verbose help
- drop confusing references to "remove from repository" / "not remove
from history"
- add mention of hg forget
This is extremely handy for those occasional circumstances where you
need to edit .hg/sharedpath manually, since modern Unix text editors
make it surprisingly difficult to create a text file with no trailing
newline.
Needed to use 'Py_RETURN_TRUE' instead of 'return Py_True' to avoid
reference count errors which would randomly crash the Python
executable during merge. This only happened when you had something
configured in merge-tools and the merge was large enough.
This is an attempt to fix issue 2451 and its duplicates (2599 and 2949, AFAIK).
Its main idea is that it is only necessary to clean the proxy environment
variables *when* http_proxy is set in the config file (since it takes
precedence over the environment variables). Otherwise, hg shouldn't bother with
them, since they will most likely be used to reach the server.
neither number of 'bytes' in any encoding nor 'characters' is
appropriate to calculate terminal columns for specified string.
this patch modifies MBTextWrapper for:
- overriding '_wrap_chunks()' to make it use not built-in 'len()'
but 'encoding.colwidth()' for columns of string
- fixing '_cutdown()' to make it use 'encoding.colwidth()' instead
of local, similar but incorrect implementation
this patch also modifies 'encoding.py':
- dividing 'colwith()' into 2 pieces: one for calculation columns of
specified UNICODE string, and another for rest part of original
one. the former is used from MBTextWrapper in 'util.py'.
- preventing 'colwidth()' from evaluating HGENCODINGAMBIGUOUS
configuration per each invocation: 'unicodedata.east_asian_width'
checking is kept intact for reducing startup cost.
This re-introduces the unicode conversion what was lost in e5976ee55f4b 5 years
ago and had the comment:
To avoid corrupting multi-byte characters in line, we must wrap
a Unicode string instead of a bytestring.
When setting up the next sample, we always add all of the heads, regardless
of the desired max sample size. But if the number of heads exceeds this
size, then we don't add any more nodes from the still undecided set.
(This is debatable per se, and I'll investigate it, but it's how we designed
it at the moment.)
The bug was that we always added the overall heads, not the heads of the
remaining undecided set. Thus, if #heads>200 (desired sample size), we
did not make progress any longer.
In 55a66b5d9114, _readline was changed to output a space using
raw_input and this was done using sys.stdout directly, not self.fout.
This change broke the command server for JavaHg since it (and other
clients) would see a spurious ' ' on stdout and interpret this as an
unknown channel.
This fixes a regression introduced with the new url handling in 1.9.
This should perhaps be fixed in the url class instead, but that might be too
invasive for a stable bugfix.
This is a workaround for calling ui.prompt(...), typing some character then
hitting backspace which causes the entire line to delete rather than just the
one character. This was seen on Debian using gnome-terminal.

Newer versions of GCC have aggressive pointer alias optimizations that
might get fooled by our pointer manipulations. These issues shouldn't
be encountered in practice because distutils compiles extensions with
-fno-strict-alias but the code was not valid according to the standard.
urllib2 never handles URIs with credentials, we have to extract them and store
them in the password manager before handing the stripped URI. Half of the
changes deducing the username from the URI in f7ae45a69fcd were incorrect.
Instead, we retrieve the username from the password manager before passing to
readauthforuri().
test-hgweb-auth.py was passing because the test itself was flawed: it was
passing URIs with credentials to find_password(), which never happens.
urllib2 password manager does not strip credentials from URIs registered with
add_password() and compare them with stripped URIs in find_password(). Remove
credentials from URIs returned by util.url.authinfo(). It sometimes works when
no port was specified as the URI host is registered too.
Previously aliases that overrode existing commands would wrap the old alias
on every call to dispatch() (twice actually), which is an obvious re-entrancy
issue for things like the command server or TortoiseHG.
8264e5172141 made sure that paths that seemed to start with a windows drive
letter would not get an extra leading slash.
localpath should thus not try to handle this case by removing a leading slash,
and this special handling is thus removed.
(The localpath handling of this case was wrong anyway, because paths that look
like they start with a windows drive letter can't have a leading slash.)
A quick verification of this is to run 'hg id file:///c:/foo/bar/'.
The [auth] section was ignored when handling URLs like:
http://user@example.com/foo
Instead, we look in [auth] for an entry matching the URL and supplied user
name. Entries without username can match URL with a username. Prefix length
ties are resolved in favor of entries matching the username. With:
foo.prefix = http://example.org
foo.username = user
foo.password = password
bar.prefix = http://example.org/bar
and the input URL:
http://user@example.org/bar
the 'bar' entry will be selected because of prefix length, therefore prompting
for a password. This behaviour ensure that entries selection is consistent when
looking for credentials or for certificates, and that certificates can be
picked even if their entries do no define usernames while the URL does.
Additionally, entries without a username matched against a username are
returned as if they did have requested username set to avoid prompting again
for a username if the password is not set.
v2: reparse the URL in readauthforuri() to handle HTTP and HTTPS similarly.
v3: allow unset usernames to match URL usernames to pick certificates. Resolve
prefix length ties in favor of entries with usernames.
Before: hgweb made it possible to download file content with a content type
detected from the file extension. It would serve .html files as text/html and
could thus cause XSS vulnerabilities if the web site had any kind of session
authorization and the repository content wasn't fully trusted.
Now: all files default to "application/binary", which all important
browsers will refuse to treat as text/html. See the table here:
