Ancient hg does not have "hg files" so test-check-*.t will fail with
"unknown command 'files'":
$ hg files
hg: unknown command 'files'
$ hg --version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 2.6.2)
Test "hg files" and give up using syshg if it does not have "files" command.
Most test scripts use "hg" to interact with a temporary test repository.
However a few tests also want to run hg commands to interact with the local
repository containing the mercurial source code. Notably, many of the
test-check-* tests want to check local files and commit messages.
These tests were previously using the version of hg being tested to query the
source repository. However, this will fail if the source repository requires
extensions or other settings not supported by the version of mercurial being
tested. The source repository was typically initially cloned using the system
hg installation, so we should use the system hg installation to query it.
There was already a helpers-testrepo.sh script designed to help cope with
different requirements for the source repository versus the test repositories.
However, it only handled the evolve extension. This new behavior works with
any extensions that are different between the system installation and the test
installation.
When running the tests, define ORIG_PATH and ORIG_PYTHONPATH environment
variables that contain the original contents of PATH and PYTHONPATH, before
they were modified by run-tests.py
This will make it possible for tests to refer to the original contents of these
variables if necessary. In particular, this is necessary for invoking the
correct version of hg for examining the local repository (the mercurial
repository itself, not the temporary test repositories). Various tests examine
the local repository to check the file lists and contents of commit messages.
Add a findhg() function that tries to be smarter about figuring out how to run
hg for examining the local repository. It first tries running "hg" from the
user's PATH, with the default HGRCPATH settings intact, but with HGPLAIN
enabled. This will generally use the same version of mercurial and the same
settings used to originally clone the repository, and should have a higher
chance of working successfully than trying to run the hg script from the local
repository. If that fails findhg() falls back to the existing behavior of
running the local hg script.
Replace the runhg() function with an hgcommand helper class. hgcommand has as
run() function similar to runhg(), but no longer requires the caller to pass in
the exact path to python and the hg script, and the environment settings for
invoking hg.
For now this diff contains no behavior changes, but in the future this will
make it easier for the hgcommand helper class to more intelligently figure out
the proper way to invoke hg.
Add a helper function to compute the environment used for invoking mercurial,
rather than doing this computation entirely at global scope. This will make it
easier to do some subsequent refactoring.
Update the runcmd() helper function so it also returns the process exit status.
This allows callers to more definitively determine if a command failed, rather
than testing only for the presence of data on stderr.
I don't expect this to have any behavioral changes for now: the commands
invoked by setup generally should print data on stderr if and only if they
failed.
If running hg fails, exit the setup script unsuccessfully, rather than
proceeding to use a bogus version of "+0-". Using an invalid version number
causes various tests to fail later. Failing early makes it easier to identify
the source of the problem.
It is currently easy for setup.py to fail this way since it sets HGRCPTH to the
empty string before running "hg", which may often disable extensions necessary
to interact with the local repository.
There are cases in opts handling in debugcommands.py where we don't need to
convert opts keys back to bytes as there are some handful cases and no other
function using opts value. Using r'', we prevent the transformer to add
a b'' which will keep the value str.
Otherwise nested template formatter would not see the context objects.
It's just a boolean flag now. We might want to change it to 'ctxs -> items'
function so changectx attributes are populated automatically in JSON, but
I'm not sure.
It's now common that an old node gets replaced by zero or more new nodes,
that could happen with amend, rebase, histedit, etc. And it's a common
requirement to do bookmark movements, strip or obsolete nodes and even
moving working copy parent.
Previously, amend, rebase, history have their own logic doing the above.
This patch is an attempt to unify them and future code.
This enables new developers to be able to do "replace X with Y" thing
correctly, without any knowledge about bookmarks, strip or obsstore.
The next step will be migrating rebase to the new API, so it works inside a
transaction, and its code could be simplified.
For long, the fact that strip does not work inside a transaction and some
code has to work with both obsstore and fallback to strip lead to duplicated
code like:
with repo.transaction():
....
if obsstore:
obsstore.createmarkers(...)
if not obsstore:
repair.strip(...)
Things get more complex when you want to call something which may call strip
under the hood. Like you cannot simply write:
with repo.transaction():
....
rebasemod.rebase(...) # may call "strip", so this doesn't work
But you do want rebase to run inside a same transaction if possible, so the
code may look like:
with repo.transaction():
....
if obsstore:
rebasemod.rebase(...)
obsstore.createmarkers(...)
if not obsstore:
rebasemod.rebase(...)
repair.strip(...)
That's ugly and error-prone. Ideally it's possible to just write:
with repo.transaction():
rebasemod.rebase(...)
saferemovenodes(...)
This patch is the first step towards that. It adds a "delayedstrip" method
to repair.py which maintains a postclose callback in the transaction object.
This is necessary because some callers in merge.py pass backgroundclose=True
when writing.
As with previous changes in this series, this should be a no-op.
We would like to migrate direct calls of repo.wvfs/wwrite/wread/etc to a
call on the relevant workingfilectx, both as a cleanup (to reduce the number of
working copy functions on `repo`), and also to facilitate an in-memory merge
that doesn't write to the working copy.
In order to do that, the first step is to ensure we pass the target wctx around
and perform our writes and reads on it. Later, this object might become a
memctx.
This is naive implementation using two-pass scanning. Tracking descendants
isn't an easy problem if both start and stop depths are specified. It's
impractical to remember all possible depths of each node while scanning from
roots to descendants because the number of depths explodes. Instead, we could
cache (min, max) depths as a good approximation and track ancestors back when
needed, but that's likely to have off-by-one bug.
Since this implementation appears not significantly slower, and is quite
straightforward, I think it's good enough for practical use cases. The time
and space complexity is O(n) ish.
revisions:
0) 1-pass scanning with (min, max)-depth cache (worst-case quadratic)
1) 2-pass scanning (this version)
repository:
mozilla-central
# descendants(0) (for reference)
*) 0.430353
# descendants(0, depth=1000)
0) 0.264889
1) 0.398289
# descendants(limit(tip:0, 1, offset=10000), depth=1000)
0) 0.025478
1) 0.029099
# descendants(0, depth=2000, startdepth=1000)
0) painfully slow (due to quadratic backtracking of ancestors)
1) 1.531138
Prepares for adding depth support. I want to process depth=0 in
revdescendants() to make things simpler.
only() also calls dagop.revdescendants(), but it filters out root revisions
explicitly. So this should cause no problem.
# descendants(0) using hg repo
0) 0.052380

# only(tip) using hg repo

Before this patch, some functions are wrapped in reposetup(), but this
causes redundant nested wrapping, if two ore more repositories enable
keyword extension (e.g. hgweb serves multiple repositories).
Now, there is no need to define these wrapper functions in
reposetup(), because previous patches made them not directly refer to
kwtemplater instanciated in reposetup().
This patch factors these wrapper functions out from reposetup(), and
uses them to wrap functions only at once at loading keyword extension.
