- Handle 'subset' argument
- Stop returning the null rev from p1 and parents, as in the non-dirstate case
- Order parents as in the non-dirstate case (ascending revs)
This patch makes the 'set' argument to revset function parents() optional.
Like p1() and p2(), if no argument is given, returns the parent(s) of the
working directory.
Morally equivalent to 'p1()+p2()', as expected.
This patch makes the 'set' argument to revset functions p1() and p2()
optional. If no argument is given, p1() and p2() return the first or second
parent of the working directory.
If the working directory is not an in-progress merge (no 2nd parent), p2()
returns the empty set. For a checkout of the null changeset, both p1() and
p2() return the empty set.
For the boolean operators, the subset optimization works by calculating
the cheaper argument first, and passing the subset to the second
argument to restrict the revision domain. This works well for filtering
predicates.
But parents() don't work like a filter: it may return revisions outside the
specified set. So, combining it with boolean operators may easily yield
incorrect results. For instance, for the following revision graph:
0 -- 1
the expression '0 and parents(1)' should evaluate as follows:
0 and parents(1) ->
0 and 0 ->
0
But since [0] is passed to parents() as a subset, we get instead:
0 and parents(1 and 0) ->
0 and parents([]) ->
0 and [] ->
[]
This also affects children(), p1() and p2(), for the same reasons.
Predicates that call these (like heads()) are also affected.
We work around this issue by ignoring the subset when propagating
the call inside those predicates.
hg log -r 'outgoing(..)' ignored #branch in some cases.
This patch fixes it.
The cases where it misbehaved are now covered by the added
test-revset-outgoing.t
This adds support for r'...' and r"..." as string literals. Strings
with the "r" prefix will not have their escape characters interpreted.
This is especially useful for grep(), where, with regular string
literals, \number is interpreted as an octal escape code, and \b is
interpreted as the backspace character (\x08).
A query like
head() and (descendants("bad") and not descendants("fix"))
(testing if repo heads are affected by a bug) will abort with a
RepoLookupError if either badrev or fixrev aren't found inside
the repository, which is not very informative.
The new predicate returns an empty set for lookup errors, so
head() and (descendants(present("bad")) and not descendants(present("fix")))
will behave as wanted even if those revisions are not found.
