patch.extract extracts just the message below HG changeset patch. So to not
parse comments above the patch, we reset the message if we find a changeset
patch as we know the commit message comes after the changeset patch data.
This is similar to the behavior of patch.extract.
The drawback of this approach, after a qref -e the comment above HG changeset
patch is gone. Without this patch the message would become part of the commit
message in the HG changset patch part.
When setting the date with qrefresh (-d|-D), and the patch does have
neither a 'Date:' nor a '# Date' header, add the date field as such:
- if the patch has a 'From:' header, add a 'Date:' header
- otherwise, upgrade to Mercurial extended patch format and add '# Date'
When setting the author field with qrefresh (-u|-U), and the patch does have
neither a 'From:' nor a '# User' header, add the author name as such:
- if the patch has a 'Date:' header, add a 'From:' header
- otherwise, upgrade to Mercurial extended patch format and add # From
When navigating through a patch series by qpushing and qpopping it was easy to
get lost because qpop was silent. I found myself often running qnext after qpop
to see which patch I just dropped - especially if I was about to qrm it. This
patch makes qpop more symmetric to qpush by showing which patches are
applied/"unapplied".
I think it is a good change even though it changes output by adding a new line
of output.
The option will no longer show up in the list, unless --verbose is used.
'qdel -r' has been deprecated in favor of qfinish since the 1.1 release.
It is still fully functional, but new users need not learn about it.
Trying as much as possible to consistently:
- use a present tense predicate followed by a direct object
- verb referring directly to the functionality provided
(ie. not "add command that does this" but simple "do that")
- keep simple and to the point, leaving details for the long help
(width is tight, possibly even more so for translations)
Thanks to timeless, Martin Geisler, Rafael Villar Burke, Dan Villiom
Podlaski Christiansen and others for the helpful suggestions.
The built-in None object is a singleton and it is therefore safe to
compare memory addresses with is. It is also faster, how much depends
on the object being compared. For a simple type like str I get:
| s = "foo" | s = None
----------+-----------+----------
s == None | 0.25 usec | 0.21 usec
s is None | 0.17 usec | 0.17 usec
