Negative offsets to the `~` operator now search for descendents. The search is
aborted when a node has more than one child as we do not have a definition for
'nth child'. Optionally we can introduce such a notion and take the nth child
ordered by rev number.
The current revset language does provides a short operator for ancestor lookup
but not for descendents. This gives user a simple revset to move to the previous
changeset, e.g. `hg up '.~1'` but not to the 'next' changeset. With this change
userse can now use `.~-1` as a shortcut to move to the next changeset.
This fits better into allowing users to specify revisions via revsets and
avoiding the need for special `hg next` and `hg prev` operations.
The alternative to negative offsets is adding a new operator. We do not have
many operators in ascii left that do not require bash escaping (',', '_', and
'/' come to mind). If we decide that we should add a more convenient short
operator such as ('/', e.g. './1') we can later add it and allow ascendents
lookup via negative numbers.
Currently when we have multiple heads on the same branch, update tells us that
there some more heads for the current branch but does not tells us the head to
which the repository has been updated to. It makes more sense showing the
head we updated to and then telling there are some more heads.
There are a number of improvements we want to make to revlogs
that will require a new version - version 2. It is unclear what the
full set of improvements will be or when we'll be done with them.
What I do know is that the process will likely take longer than a
single release, will require input from various stakeholders to
evaluate changes, and will have many contentious debates and
bikeshedding.
It is unrealistic to develop revlog version 2 up front: there
are just too many uncertainties that we won't know until things
are implemented and experiments are run. Some changes will also
be invasive and prone to bit rot, so sitting on dozens of patches
is not practical.
This commit introduces skeleton support for version 2 revlogs in
a way that is flexible and not bound by backwards compatibility
concerns.
An experimental repo requirement for denoting revlog v2 has been
added. The requirement string has a sub-version component to it.
This will allow us to declare multiple requirements in the course
of developing revlog v2. Whenever we change the in-development
revlog v2 format, we can tweak the string, creating a new
requirement and locking out old clients. This will allow us to
make as many backwards incompatible changes and experiments to
revlog v2 as we want. In other words, we can land code and make
meaningful progress towards revlog v2 while still maintaining
extreme format flexibility up until the point we freeze the
format and remove the experimental labels.
To enable the new repo requirement, you must supply an experimental
and undocumented config option. But not just any boolean flag
will do: you need to explicitly use a value that no sane person
should ever type. This is an additional guard against enabling
revlog v2 on an installation it shouldn't be enabled on. The
specific scenario I'm trying to prevent is say a user with a
4.4 client with a frozen format enabling the option but then
downgrading to 4.3 and accidentally creating repos with an
outdated and unsupported repo format. Requiring a "challenge"
string should prevent this.
Because the format is not yet finalized and I don't want to take
any chances, revlog v2's version is currently 0xDEAD. I figure
squatting on a value we're likely never to use as an actual revlog
version to mean "internal testing only" is acceptable. And
"dead" is easily recognized as something meaningful.
There is a bunch of cleanup that is needed before work on revlog
v2 begins in earnest. I plan on doing that work once this patch
is accepted and we're comfortable with the idea of starting down
this path.
Since 348863ccec7e "util: always force line buffered stdout when stdout is
a tty", we have two file objects attached to the same STDOUT_FILENO. If one
is closed, the underlying file descriptor is also closed, and writing to
the other file object would crash the Python interpreter in a hard way, at
least on Windows.
So, it seems safer to not close the standard streams. This also matches
the behavior of the default sys.stdout/stderr.close(), which never close
the FILE* streams in C layer.
https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/v2.7.13/Python/sysmodule.c#l1401
It's been there since 84af5a079c7d (2007-02-19), but seems wrong since any
I/O operations to a closed file would raise ValueError, not IOError. We should
keep the file object open even if the underlying file descriptor is half dead.
If a marker has no parent information, parents field is set to None, which
caused TypeError. I think this shouldn't normally happen, but somehow
I have such marker in my repo.
We point out at the help of the config option for user who wants to learn more
about the possible config value.
The suggested command returns some other extra (color related) results, but this
is bug to fix outside of the freeze.
The --color option is described to accept "boolean, always, auto,
never, or debug". Let's use a similar description for ui.color. Also
fix the formatting to use double quotes as we seem to use for about
half the values in config.txt (the other half uses double
backticks). Also use uppercase Boolean for consistency within the
file.
On system where HGTEST_PORT is configured to a value an order a magnitude lower
or higher than the default. The number of digit in the HGPORT changes and this
test breaks.
Acquiring lock by vfs.makelock() and getting lock holder (aka
"locker") information by vfs.readlock() aren't atomic action.
Therefore, failure of the former doesn't ensure success of the latter.
Before this patch, lock is unintentionally acquired, if ENOENT
causes failure of vfs.readlock() while 5 times retrying, because
lock._trylock() returns to caller silently after retrying, and
lock.lock() assumes that lock._trylock() returns successfully only if
lock is acquired.
In this case, lock symlink (or file) isn't created, even though lock
is treated as acquired in memory.
To avoid this issue, this patch makes lock._trylock() raise
LockHeld(EAGAIN) at the end of it, if lock isn't acquired while
retrying.
An empty "locker" meaning "busy for frequent lock/unlock by many
processes" might appear in an abortion message, if lock acquisition
fails. Therefore, this patch also does:
- use '%r' to increase visibility of "locker", even if it is empty
- show hint message to explain what empty "locker" means
Acquiring lock by vfs.makelock() and getting lock holder (aka
"locker") information by vfs.readlock() aren't atomic action.
Therefore, failure of the former doesn't ensure success of the latter.
Before this patch, lock is unintentionally acquired, if
self.parentlock is None (this is default value), and lock._readlock()
returns None for ENOENT at vfs.readlock(), because these None are
recognized as equal to each other.
In this case, lock symlink (or file) isn't created, even though lock
is treated as acquired in memory.
To avoid this issue, this patch retries lock acquisition immediately,
if lock._readlock() returns None "locker".
This issue will be covered by a test added in subsequent patch,
because simple emulation of ENOENT at vfs.readlock() easily causes
another issue. "raising ENOENT only at the first vfs.readlock()
invocation" is too complicated for unit test, IMHO.
Another raising PeerTransportError for "incomplete response" in
httppeer.py uses this (changed) hint message. This unification reduces
cost of translation.
There are some paragraphs, which aren't rendered in online help as
expected because of indentation and literal blocking issues.
- hgext/rebase.py
- paragraph before example code ends with ":", which treats
subsequent indented paragraphs as normal block
=> replace ":" with "::" to treat subsequent paragraphs as literal block
- help/pager.txt
- paragraph before a list of --pager option values ends with "::",
which treats subsequent indented paragraphs as literal block
=> replace "::" with ":" to treat subsequent paragraphs as normal block
- the second line of explanation for no/off --pager option value is
indented incorrectly (this also causes failure of "make" in doc)
=> indent correctly
- help/revisions.txt
- explanation following example code of "[revsetalias]" section
isn't suitable for literal block
=> un-indent explanation paragraph to treat it as normal block
- indentation of "For example" before example of tag() revset
predicate matching is meaningless
- descriptive text for tag() revset predicate matching isn't
suitable for literal block
=> un-indent concatenated two paragraphs to treat them as normal block
Having linux wheels is going to helps system without compiler or python-dev
plus speed up the installation for everyone.
I followed the manylinux example repository
https://github.com/pypa/python-manylinux-demo
to add a make target (build-linux-wheels) using
official docker image to build python 2 linux wheels
for mercurial. It generates Python 2.6 and Python 2.7 for both
32 and 64 bits architectures.
I had to blacklist several test cases for various reasons:
* test-convert-git.t and test-subrepo-git.t because of the git version
* test-patchbomb-tls.t because of warning using tls 1.0
It's likely because the docker image is based on centos 5.0 and
openssl is outdated.
When on a filelog head, we are certain that there will be no descendant so the
target of the "descending" link will lead to an empty log result. Do not
display the link in this case.
We set parent._descendantrev = child.rev() when walking parents in
blockancestors() so that, when linkrev adjustment is perform for these, it
starts from a close descendant instead of possibly topmost introrev. (See
`self._adjustlinkrev(self._descendantrev)` in filectx._changeid().)
This is similar to changeset 8758896efb1c, which added a "f._changeid"
instruction in annotate() for the same purpose.
However, here, we set _descendantrev explicitly instead of relying on the
'_changeid' cached property being accessed (with effect to set _changeid
attribute) so that, in _parentfilectx() (called from parents()), we go through
`if '_changeid' in vars(self) [...]` branch in which instruction
`fctx._descendantrev = self.rev()` finally appears and does what we want.
With this, we can roughly get a 3x speedup (including in example of issue5538
from mozilla-central repository) on usage of followlines revset (and
equivalent hgweb request).
Update the hunk selector help message to use the operation name instead
of using "record" for all operations. Extract the help message in the same way
as other single and multiple message line.
Update tests to make sure that both "revert" and "discard" variants are tested.
This makes the test pass in Python 2.6. It's all one of two problems:
1)
abort: error: '' (2.7)
vs
abort: error: (2.6)
2) 65537 (2.7) vs -1 (2.6)
With some...unfortunate escaping required due to how regular
expressions work. Sigh.
Now that environment variables override system-wide hgrc settings, we
can default Mercurial to sensible-editor and sensible-pager by default
for debian users.
