Every time util.pathto is called, we have to pass the repo root and the
repo cwd.
dirstate.pathto is a simple convenience function that knows about the
root and the cwd arguments. It's still possible to pass the cwd as an
optimization.
localrepo.pathto is a convenience function that just calls
dirstate.pathto, just like localrepo.getcwd.
dirstate.pathto becomes a single point that converts most (all?) paths
from the internal representation to some OS-specific relative path for
display purposes.
This allows you to do:
hg clone http://server/repo#stable
which is equivalent to:
hg clone -r stable http://server/repo
Future incoming, outgoing, and push commands will default to using
this id because it's recorded in the default path.
Other commands that accept URLs (push, pull, bundle, incoming, and
outgoing) also accept this syntax.
Uses the remote repository's lookup method as pull does and only transfers
what is needed to calculate incoming changesets.
One minor problem:
As only the needed changesets are transfered and stored in a local bundle
repository, the tip tag of this bundle is shows despite not being the tip
changeset of the remote repository.
(see "+tag: tip" in tests/test-incoming-outgoing.out in this patch)
The behaviour of find_in_path was broken for config options containing
path names, because it always searched the given path, even when not
necessary. The find_exe function is more polite: if the name passed
to it contains a path component, it just returns it.
This makes its default behaviour useful again (issue108), and
changes it search the entire repository by default (instead
of just the cwd), just like all other commands.
It also hides issue204 by default, but you'll still see the
same behaviour if you give it a relpath: pattern.
It makes sense to do this on the "global" ui object, since command line
options should affect the whole process.
This should fix hg serve --style=gitweb inside a repo (part of issue253).
