When the filesystem cannot handle the executable bit, we currently
ignore it completely when looking for modified files. Similarly, it is
impossible to set or clear the bit when the filesystem ignores it.
This patch makes Mercurial treat symbolic links the same way.
Symlinks are a little different since they manifest themselves as
small files containing a filename (the symlink target). On Windows,
these files show up as regular files, and on Linux and Mac they show
up as real symlinks.
Issue1888 presents a case where the symlink files are better ignored
from the Windows side. A Linux client creates symlinks in a working
copy which is shared over a network between Linux and Windows clients.
The Samba server is helpful and defererences the symlink when the
Windows client looks at it. This means that Mercurial on the Windows
side sees file content instead of a file name in the symlink, and
hence flags the link as modified. Ignoring the change would be much
more helpful, similarly to how Mercurial does not report any changes
when executable bits are ignored in a checkout on Windows.
An initial checkout of a symbolic link on a file system that cannot
handle symbolic links will still result in a regular file containing
the target file name as its content. Sharing such a checkout with a
Linux client will not turn the file into a symlink automatically, but
'hg revert' can fix that. After the revert, the Windows client will
see the correct file content (provided by the Samba server when it
follows the link on the Linux side) and otherwise ignore the change.
Running 'hg perfstatus' 10 times gives these results:
Before: After:
min: 0.544703 min: 0.546549
med: 0.547592 med: 0.548881
avg: 0.549146 avg: 0.548549
max: 0.564112 max: 0.551504
The median time is increased about 0.24%.
For scripting purposes, it can be convenient to get a simple listing of
available queues, without indication of the active one.
--quiet documentation change removed by Patrick Mézard.
Py3k doesn't have a global cmp() function, making this call problematic in the
py3k port. Also, calling cmp() here is not necessary, since we only want to
know if the two values are equal. A check for equality perfect in this case and
this patch does that.
It aims to fix javascript error of hgweb's graph view in Japanese 'cp932'
encoding.
'cp932' contains multibyte characters ending with '\x5c' (backslash),
e.g. '\x94\x5c' for Japanese Kanji 'Noh'.
Due to json filter escapes '\' to '\\', multibyte string ending with
'\x5c' is translated to "xxx\", resulting javascript parse error on
a web browser.
This patch changes json() to pass unicode to jsonescape().
Unicode decoding error handler changed to 'replace' by Patrick Mézard.
This significantly refactors the read() loop to use a queue of chunks.
The queue is alternately filled to at least 256k and then emptied by
concatenating onto the output buffer.
For very large read sizes, += uses less memory because it can resize
the target string in place.
A partial bundle is created to temporarily save revisions > rev but
not descending from the node to strip, to be able to restore the
changesets after stripping the changelog.
Since this bundle is not kept after the strip operation, and is not
user-visible, it is not necessary and should be faster to avoid
compression.
The three replace calls are slower than this simple __contains__,
and anyway we should not have this many paths ending with .i, .d, or .hg
compared to the normal, un-encoded other paths.
