Backing out a changeset that is before a named branch branchpoint was
making the reverse changeset the tip of the old branch, which is wrong
and very confusing. So instead, we put it on the current named branch.
- complain about attempts to merge with ancestor
- when updating, differentiate between
- crossing named branches with no local changes (jump)
- crossing named branches with local changes (complain)
- nonlinear update on the same named branch, no changes (complain some more)
- nonlinear update on the same named branch, changes (different complaining)
In an extreme case (merging two revisions with very low revision numbers)
this could be slower than the previous code, but it should be much faster
in the usual cases (parents are near the tip). It also avoids some races
in some uninteresting cases (e.g. two concurrent hg commits).
- Added files are never deleted (only removed with --force).
- Modified files can only be removed with --force.
- With --after, only deleted files are removed.
- With --after --force, all files are removed but not deleted.
- Example: "hg tag -r 42 build-25 beta-1" will add tags build-25 and beta-1
for rev 42.
- The deprecated and undocumented usage "hg tag arg1 arg2" used to emit a
warning, then add tag arg1 for rev arg2 (equivalent to "hg tag -r arg2 arg1").
It will now add tags arg1 and arg2 for the current revision.
- If one tag triggers an error, no tags are added/removed (all or nothing).
This can make a difference when there are filters involved and
decode(encode(working-dir-data)) != working-dir-data
even though
encode(decode(repo-data)) == repo-data
An example is a working dir file that uses only \n when you're using
the win32text extension.
The error message at startup when the address/port could not be bound
was confusing:
hg serve
abort: cannot start server: Address already in use
Be more explicit:
$ hg serve -a localhost
abort: cannot start server at 'localhost:8000': Address already in use
Also be more explicit on success, showing hostname and ip address/port:
$ hg -v serve -a localhost -p 80
listening at http://localhost/ (127.0.0.1:80)
We are careful to handle a missconfigured machine whose hostname does not
resolve, falling back to the address given at the command line.
Remove a dead-code error message.
The '-q' flag was ignored in status command. But this flag
can be used to hide non-tracked files in hg status output.
This small correction makes status command more general,
similar to 'svn status', where '-q' flag has the same effect.
The '-u' and '-A' flags have priority over '-q'.
A testcase and doc-string for status was extended to cover
'-q' flag.
