Mercurial often failed with struct.error or mpatch.mpatchError if incomplete
data was received from a server.
Now we validate all changegroup reads and aborts with
abort: stream ended unexpectedly (got %d bytes, expected %d)
if less than requested was read.
We want to issue a warning and abort comparing bookmarks if remote doesn't
support it. Otherwise hg out -B will list you outgoing bookmarks that cannot
be pushed to the remote repository using hg push -B.
hg bookmark -r ancestorrev X will not mark X as the current bookmark anymore.
If you want to point a bookmark to a ancestor rev you will use hg update to
move to it. This will set the current bookmark.
Since bookmarks are no longer merged with repo.tags() as of
8e2d23f4bd25, they don't show up in `hg id` as they used to. This adds
them back into the summary that `hg id` prints, and adds a
-B/--bookmarks flag alongside the -t/--tags and -b/--branch options.
Note this introduces a slight backwards-incompatibility: the summary
printed by `hg id` now separates bookmarks from tags with a space, as
seen below, instead of running it into the tags list.
Default summary output:
$ hg id
db815d6d32e6 tip/tag1 bm1/bm2
Output with --bookmarks:
$ hg id --bookmarks
bm1 bm2
See also 5672c9e8202d which adds bookmarks back into `hg summary`.
If the repository is not locked when clearing the dirstate, then
running test-eol.t in a loop fails sooner or later with:
ERROR: /home/mg/src/mercurial-crew/tests/test-eol.t output changed

However, if we cannot lock the repository, then we can also not make a
commit and so we can simply ignore a LockUnavailable error.
This improves the misleading error message
$ hg identify
abort: there is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!
to the more explicit
$ hg identify
abort: requirement 'fake' not supported!
for all commands in commands.optionalrepo, which includes the identify
and serve commands in particular.
This is for the case when a new entry in .hg/requires will be defined
in a future Mercurial release.
This changes the prompts on git subrepos to show only the first seven
digits of git changeset IDs (as git's command line does):
$ hg update
subrepository sources for s differ (in checked out version)
use (l)ocal source (32a3438) or (r)emote source (da5f5b1)?
We can stop pretending that we have to support anything else
than '/' for concatenating path elements anywhere.
Windows deals just fine with '/' in file paths and we already
have plenty of places which produce paths containing '/'
anyway when running on Windows.
We restrict : to 1. make it easer to convert bookmarks to git branches,
2. use : later for a syntax to push a local bookmark to a remote bookmark
of a different name. \0, \n, \r are fobbidden they are used to separate
bookmarks in the bookmark file.
This change breaks backward compatbility as ':' was an allowed character in
previous versions.
Previously, when rolling back a transaction, some users could be confused
between the level to which the store is rolled back, and the new parents
of the working directory.
$ hg rollback
rolling back to revision 4 (undo commit)
With this change:
$ hg rollback
repository tip rolled back to tip revision 4 (undo commit)
working directory now based on revision 2 and 1
So now the user can realize that the store has been rolled back to an older
tip, but also that the working directory may not on the tip (here we are
rolling back the merge of the heads 2 and 1)
Invalid requests could give an unhandled ErrorResponse.
Now this ErrorResponse is handled like other ErrorResponses so the client gets
an error message which also is logged on the server.
Other exceptions than StandardExceptions were left to the default error handler
which was muted when running in daemon mode.
Now all Exceptions are handled and logged to the log file.
