This patch fixes a bug where hgweb would send an incomplete HTTP
response.
If an uncaught exception is raised when hgweb is processing a request,
hgweb attempts to send a generic error response and log that exception.
The server defaults to chunked transfer coding. If an uncaught exception
occurred, it was sending the error response string / chunk properly.
However, RFC 7230 Section 4.1 mandates a 0 size last chunk be sent to
indicate end of the entity body. hgweb was failing to send this last
chunk. As a result, properly written HTTP clients would assume more data
was coming and they would likely time out waiting for another chunk to
arrive.
Mercurial's own test harness was paving over the improper HTTP behavior
by not attempting to read the response body if the status code was 500.
This incorrect workaround was added in faced8f5c2af and has been removed
with this patch.
A matcher is required when enabling the subrepo option on archival.archive(),
because that calls match.narrowmatcher(), which accesses fields on the object.
It's therefore probably a bad idea to default the matcher to None on archive(),
but that's a fix for default.
Make hgweb.refresh() also look at phaseroots file (in addition to 00changelog.i
file) and reload the repo when os.stat returns different mtime or size than
cached, signifying the file was modified.
This way if user changes phase of a changeset (secret <-> draft), there's no
need to restart hg serve to see the change.
Traditionally, the way to specify a command for hgweb was to use url query
arguments (e.g. "?cmd=batch"). If the command is unknown to hgweb, it gives an
error (e.g. "400 no such method: badcmd").
But there's also another way to specify a command: as a url path fragment (e.g.
"/graph"). Before, hgweb was made forgiving (looks like it was made in
cd356f4efd91) and user could put any unknown command in the url. If hgweb
couldn't understand it, it would just silently fall back to the default
command, which depends on the actual style (e.g. for paper it's shortlog, for
monoblue it's summary). This was inconsistent and was breaking some tools that
rely on http status codes (as noted in the issue4071). So this patch changes
that behavior to the more consistent one, i.e. hgweb will now return "400 no
such method: badcmd".
So if some tool was relying on having an invalid command return http status
code 200 and also have some information, then it will stop working. That is, if
somebody typed foobar when they really meant shortlog (and the user was lucky
enough to choose a style where the default command is shortlog too), that fact
will now be revealed.
Code-wise, the changed if block is only relevant when there's no "?cmd" query
parameter (i.e. only when command is specified as a url path fragment), and
looks like the removed else branch was there only for falling back to default
command. With that removed, the rest of the code works as expected: it looks at
the command, and if it's not known, raises a proper ErrorResponse exception
with an appropriate message.
Evidently, there were no tests that required the old behavior. But, frankly, I
don't know any way to tell if anyone actually exploited such forgiving behavior
in some in-house tool.
hgweb detects out-of-date repository instances (using a highly
suspect mechanism that should probably be fixed) and obtains a new
repository object if needed.
This patch changes the repository object copy to use the repo URL
(instead of path). This preserves more information about the source
repository and allows bundles to be served through hgweb.
A test verifying that bundles can now be served properly via
`hg serve` has been added.
_ is usually used for i18n markup but we also used it for I-don't-care
variables.
Instead, name don't-care variables in a slightly descriptive way but use the _
prefix to designate unused variable.
This will mute some pyflakes "import '_' ... shadowed by loop variable"
warnings.
Before this patch, revision numbers and hash values in "comparison"
page are gotten from not changelog but filelog.
Such filelog information is useful only for hgweb debugging, and may
confuse users.
This patch shows revision numbers and hash values gotten from
changelog in "comparison" page.
Before this patch, "parents" in pages for file doesn't show as same
parents as "hg parents -r REV FILE", when the specified file is not
modified in the specified revision.
For example, it is assumed that revision A, B and D change file "f".
changelog (A) ---> (B) ---> (C) ---> (D)
filelog "f" (x) ---> (y) ------------> (z)
"/file/D/f" invokes "webutil.parents()" with filectx(z) gotten from
changectx(D), and it returns changectx(B). This is as same result as
"hg parents -r D f".
In the other hand, "/file/C/f" invokes "webutil.parents()" with
filectx(y') gotten from changectx(C), and it returns changectx(A),
because filectx(y') is linked to changectx(B), and works like
filectx(y) in some cases.
In this case, revision B is hidden from users browsing file "f" in
revision C.
This patch shows as same parents as "hg parents -r REV FILE" in pages
for file, by making "webutil.parents()" return:
- "linkrev()"-ed revision only, if:
- specified context instance is "filectx" (because
"webutil.parents()" is invoked with changectx, too), and
- (1) the revision from which filectx is gotten and (2) the one to
which filectx is linked are different from each other
- revision gotten from "ctx.parents()", otherwise
Before this patch, "comparison" shows unexpected result, when the
specified file is not modified in the specified revision, even though
"diff" shows empty result.
When REV doesn't change specified FILE, "diff" shows:
"hg diff -c REV FILE"
but "comparison" shows:
"hg diff -c `hg parents -r REV FILE` FILE"
In other words, the former gets parent from changelog, but the latter
gets one from filelog.
This may confuse users browsing (and switching "diff" and
"comparison" of) files in the specified revision.
This patch makes "comparison" get parent from not filelog but
changelog, to show "hg diff -c REV FILE" in both "diff" and
"comparison" pages.
Some extensions set configuration settings that showed up in 'hg showconfig
--debug' with 'none' as source. That was confusing.
Instead, they will now tell which extension they come from.
This change tries to be consistent and specify a source everywhere - also where
it perhaps is less relevant.
This needs to be changed to use a baseset since dagwalker now expects to
receive a smartset. This is basically wrapping revs into a baseset to be
compatible with smartset implementations.
Until now, repositories did not provide any value for isdirectory in rows
produced for the index output, and thus isdirectory was generally evaluated as
None for each index entry representing a repository.
However, directories (visible when viewed with the descend and collapse
settings enabled) did provide a value of True and this value appeared to
persist in subsequent rows processed by the templater, causing isdirectory
tests in templates to produce incorrect results for index entries appearing
after directories.
This patch asserts the None value for repositories, thus erasing any such
persistent True values.
A correct patch for this has existed in Python's BTS for 3 years
(http://bugs.python.org/issue9291), so waiting for it to be fixed
upstream is probably not a viable strategy. Instead, we add this
horrible hack to workaround the issue in existing copies of Python
2.4-2.7.
The search mode description can't be translated by itself, since
it's displayed as part of a template phrase (the "Assuming ..."
/ "Use ... instead" bits). Just drop the translation markers for
now, since the templates themselves currently do not support
translations.
This is the same thing which was done for changelog earlier, and it doesn't
affect performance at all. This change will make it possible to get the first
entry of the next page easily without computing the list twice.
The headers attribute is not initialized in certain error situations
(e.g. http 400 bad request). Check for self.headers before we attempt
to access it.
