Hgs signal handler will catch the signal for example if the terminal hg is
running in is closed. That will make it try to warn that it was 'killed', but
that might fail with EIO and cause hg to exit with an unhandled exception.
Normally nobody cares, but system error handlers such as Fedoras abrt will
notice and report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=596594 .
This new configuration variable is similar in nature `ui.interactive',
but applying to output instead of input. This allows as to support
non-interactive sessions where formatted should be enabled, such as
when using the pager extension.
The variable itself is left undocumented; it is not intended for use
outside Mercurial and its extensions.
Some implementations of ui.label() (HTML versions in particular) must escape
the provided text and then markup the text with their tags. When this marked
up text is then passed to ui.write(), we must label the text as 'ui.labeled'
so the implementation knows not to escape it a second time (exposing the initial
markup).
This required the addition of a 'ui.plain' label for text that is purposefully
not marked up.
I was a little pedantic here, passing even ' ' strings to ui.label() when it
would be included with other labeled text in a ui.write() call. But it seemed
appropriate to lean to the side of caution.
note: expansion of config variables must be handled on a case-by-case basis
because they can contain arbitrary data that may not be desirable to expand.
Several places that use ui.configlist, predominantly in authentication
scenarios need to interface with systems that can contain spaces in usernames
(e.g. when client certificates are usernames, or Windows usernames).
This changeset introduces a parser that supports quoting of strings, and
escape quotation marks that get decoded into a single quotation mark that
adopts the usual behavior one would expect from quoting strings. The Python
library shlex module is not used, on purpose, as that raises if it cannot
match quotation marks in the given input.
This adds output labeling support with the following methods:
- ui.write(..., label='topic.name topic2.name2 ...')
- ui.write_err(.., label=...)
- ui.popbuffer(labeled=False)
- ui.label(msg, label)
By adding an API to label output directly, the color extension can forgo
parsing command output and instead override the above methods to insert
ANSI color codes. GUI tools can also override the above methods and use
the labels to do GUI-specific styling.
popbuffer gains a labeled argument that, when set to True, returns its
buffered output with labels handled. In the case of the color extension,
this would return output with color codes embedded. For existing users
that use this method to capture and parse output, labels are discarded
and output returned as normal when labeled is False (the default).
Existing wrappers of ui.write() and ui.write_err() should make sure to
accept its new **opts argument.
If HGPLAIN is set, the following settings are ignored when read from
hgrc files:
- ui.debug
- ui.fallbackencoding
- ui.quiet
- ui.traceback
- ui.verbose
- defaults.*
Localization is also disabled.
Equivalent options set via command line are honored.
4262f8a58f24 introduced a fix if sys.stdout.closed does not exist.
This change uses a getattr with default instead of hasattr (which just calls
getattr) and accessing the attribute.
Additionally it applies the same fix for sys.stderr.closed as this is not
available in the bpython shell (reported by Roger Gammans).
Prior to this change, if a Python hook module failed to load (e.g. due
to an import error or path problem), it was impossible to figure out
why the error occurred, because the ImportErrors that got raised were
caught but never displayed.
If run with --traceback or ui.traceback=True, hg now prints tracebacks
of both of the ImportError instances that get raised before it bails.
We regularly see people on IRC ask how they can correct commits they
accidentally made without having configured a username. This change
will make Mercurial abort when a commit is made without a username.
If Mercurial is run without a TTY (from a cronjob or similar), a
username is constructed as usual. Schematically the changes are as
follows:
With ui.askusername=False:
old new
interactive user@host abort
noninteractive user@host user@host
With ui.askusername=True:
old new
interactive prompt prompt
noninteractive user@host user@host
ui.prompt was completely silent in non-interactive mode, unless in verbose
mode. It is fine that it chooses the default automatically, but it is confusing
that the message and prompt shown interactively can't be found in scripted
tests.
The prompt and selection is now .write'ed instead of .note'ed.
The fstat function was undefined, but never used since a stat object
was always passed in the optional st argument. Passing st is now
mandatory.
This bug crept in when util was split up into posix and windows
modules. The fstat function is still defined in util, but importing it
into posix would create an import cycle which seems unnecessary.
The property returns os.environ by default, and is propagated by ui.copy.
During hgweb processing, ui.environ is set to the proper WSGI-request
environment, as contained in wsgirequest.environ. For CGI, this is the
same as os.environ.
The property is meant to be read-only, as with os.environ (generally).
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
This cleans up code and allows specification of values more globally. For
example, it's now possible to specify web.contact in webdir-conf for all
repositories without a specified contact set.
Use ampersands (&) to delineate the response char in each choice.
ui.prompt() responses are now explicitly case insensitive. GUIs
that subclass ui can generate dialogs from the full choice names.
