Upon pull or unbundle, we display a message with the range of new revisions
fetched. This revision range could readily be used after a pull to look out
what's new with 'hg log'. The algorithm takes care of filtering "obsolete"
revisions that might be present in transaction's "changes" but should not be
displayed to the end user.
This is a first basic visible usage of the changes tracking in the transaction.
We adds a new function computing the pre-existing changesets obsoleted by a
transaction and a transaction call back displaying this information.
Example output:
added 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files (+1 heads)
3 new obsolescence markers
obsoleted 1 changesets
The goal is to evolve the transaction summary into something bigger, gathering
existing output there and adding new useful one. This patch is a good first step
on this road. The new output is basic but give a user to the content of
tr.changes['obsmarkers'] and give an idea of the new options we haves. I expect
to revisit the message soon.
The caller recording the transaction summary should also be moved into a more
generic location but further refactoring is needed before it can happen.
Mercurial checks for the introduction of new heads on push. Evolution comes
into play to detect if existing branches on the server are being replaced by
some of the new one we push.
The current code for this logic is very basic (eg: issue4354) and was poorly
tested. We have a better implementation coming in the evolve extension fixing
these issues and with more serious tests coverage. In the process of upstreaming
this improved logic, we start with adding the test case that are already passing
with the current implementation. Once they are all in, we'll upstream the better
implementation and the extra test cases.
See inline documentation for details about the test case added in this
changeset.
