Originally, mq.strip called repair.strip a single rev at a time.
repair.strip stores in a backup bundle any revision greater than
the revision being stripped, strips, then restores the backup with
repo.addchangegroup. So, when stripping revisions on more than one
topological branch, some could end up being restored from the backup
bundle, only to be later removed by a subsequent repair.strip call.
But repo.addchangegroup calls hooks for all those restore operations.
And 1671d21e8e41 changed it to delay all hook calls until the
repository lock were released - by mq.strip, after stripping all
revisions. Thus, the hooks could be called over revisions already
removed from the repository at that point.
By generating the revision lists at once inside repo.strip, we avoid
calling addchangegroup for temporary restores. Incidentally, this
also avoids creating many backup files for a single strip command.
This adds a " (glob)" marker that works like a simpler version of
(re): "*" is converted to ".*", and "?" is converted to ".".
Both special characters can be escaped using "\", and the backslash
itself can be escaped as well.
Other glob-style syntax, like "**", "[chars]", or "[!chars]", isn't
supported.
Consider this test:
$ hg glog --template '{rev}:{node|short} "{desc}"\n'
@ 2:20c4f79fd7ac "3"
|
| o 1:38f24201dcab "2"
|/
o 0:2a18120dc1c9 "1"
Because each line beginning with "|" can be compiled as a regular
expression (equivalent to ".*|"), they will match any output.
Similarly:
$ echo foo
The blank output line can be compiled as a regular expression and will
also match any output.
With this patch, none of the above output lines will be matched as
regular expressions. A line must end in " (re)" in order to be matched
as one.
Lines are still matched literally first, so the following will pass:
$ echo 'foo (re)'
foo (re)
