We only parse entries in a revlog index file when they are actually
needed, and cache them when first requested.
This makes a huge difference to performance on large revlogs when
accessing the tip revision or performing a handful of numeric lookups
(very common cases). For instance, "hg --time tip --template {node}"
on a tree with 300,000 revs takes 0.15 before, 0.02 after.
Even for revlog-intensive operations (e.g. running "hg log" to
completion), the lazy approach is about 1% faster than the eager
parse_index2.
Currently, the 'user' filter is using util.shortuser(text) (which clearly
doesn't extract only the user portion of an email address, even though the
help text says it does).
The new 'emailuser' filter uses the new util.emailuser(text) function which,
instead, does exactly that.
The help text on the 'user' filter has been modified accordingly.
When inotify.repowatcher.shutdown() is called, mercurial.error.SignalInterrupt
exception is thrown by mercurial.dispatch._runcatch.catchterm(), therefore
socketlistener.shutdown() is not called.
Catching this allows cleanup action (removing the socket file) to proceed.
test-gpg has to be run in a mercurial working directory as it uses
that to verify that it hasn't modified the trustdb.gpg file. Skip the
test if it is running in an exploded tarball.
The 'while kill -0' recipe can cause a livelock if the process we're waiting
to die is a normal child process. If it becomes a zombie that the shell
doesn't reap (shell bug?), it will continue to be able to accept
signals. So instead, we just wait(1).
We need to wait until a journal exists AND is non-empty before
aborting a transaction to get stable output. We move the kill wait
outside the fifo block to avoid potential deadlock.
on some platform (Mac OS X and Solaris, at least), to insert new text
line, sed function 'i' should be followed by:
- backslash('\'),
- new-line,
- text to be inserted and
- new-line
GNU sed on Linux can recognize both previous and new ones as same
modification request.
in addition to it, this patch avoids to use '-i' option for sed,
because it is not so portable, as noted in WritingTests wiki page.
It is possible that unrelated changes in a file are on sequential lines. The
current record extension does not allow these to be committed independently.
An example use case for this is in software development for deeply embedded
real-time systems. In these environments, it is not always possible to use a
debugger (due to time-constraints) and hence inline UART-based printing is
often used. When fixing a bug in a module, it is often convenient to add a
large number of 'printf's (linked to the UART via a custom fputc) to the module
in order to work out what is going wrong. printf is a very slow function (and
also variadic so somewhat frowned upon by the MISRA standard) and hence it is
highly undesirable to commit these lines to the repository. If only a partial
fix is implemented, however, it is desirable to commit the fix without deleting
all of the printf lines. This is also simplifies removal of the printf lines
as once the final fix is committed, 'hg revert' does the rest. It is likely
that the printf lines will be very near the actual fix, so being able to split
the hunk is very useful in this case.
There were two alternatives I considered for the user interface. One was to
manually edit the patch, the other to allow a hunk to be split into individual
lines for consideration. The latter option would require a significant
refactor of the record module and is less flexible. While the former is
potentially more complicated to use, this is a feature that is likely to only
be used in certain exceptional cases (such as the use case proposed above) and
hence I felt that the complexity would not be a considerable issue.
I've also written a follow-up patch that refactors the 'prompt' code to base
everything on the choices variable. This tidies up and clarifies the code a
bit (removes constructs like 'if ret == 7' and removes the 'e' option from the
file scope options as it's not relevant there. It's not really a necessity, so
I've excluded it from this submission for now, but I can send it separately if
there's a desire and it's on bitbucket (see below) in the meantime.
Possible future improvements include:
* Tidying up the 'prompt' code to base everything on the choices variable.
This would allow entries to be removed from the prompt as currently 'e' is
offered even for entire file patches, which is currently unsupported.
* Allowing the entire file (or even multi-file) patch to be edited manually:
this would require quite a large refactor without much benefit, so I decided
to exclude it from the initial submission.
* Allow the option to retry if a patch fails to apply (this is what Git does).
This would require quite a bit of refactoring given the current 'hg record'
implementation, so it's debatable whether it's worth it.
Output is similar to existing record user interface except that an additional
option ('e') exists to allow manual editing of the patch. This opens the
user's configured editor with the patch. A comment is added to the bottom of
the patch explaining what to do (based on Git's one).
A large proportion of the changeset is test-case changes to update the options
reported by record (Ynesfdaq? instead of Ynsfdaq?). Functional changes are in
record.py and there are some new test cases in test-record.t.
on icasefs, "hg qnew" fails to import changing letter case of filename
already occurred in working directory, for example:
$ hg rename a tmp
$ hg rename tmp A
$ hg qnew casechange
$ hg status
R a
$
"hg qnew" invokes 'dirstate.walk()' via 'localrepository.commit()'
with 'exact match' matching object having exact filenames of targets
in ones 'files()'.
current implementation of 'dirstate.walk()' always normalizes letter
case of filenames from 'match.files()' on icasefs, even though exact
matching is required.
then, files only different in letter case are treated as one file.
this patch prevents 'dirstate.walk()' from normalizing, if exact
matching is required, even on icasefs.
filenames for 'exact matching' are given not from user command line,
but from dirstate walk result, manifest of changecontext, patch files
or fixed list for specific system files (e.g.: '.hgtags').
in such case, case normalization should not be done, so this patch
works well.
--rev options cannot be merged into a single revset because we do not know if
they are valid revset or old-style revision specifications, like 'foo-bar'
tags. Instead, a base revision set is generated with scmutil.revrange() then
filtered with the revset built from log options. It also fixes incorrect or
hostile expressions passed in --rev.
The previous code was correct for command line as opts always contains the
default empty lists for --branch and --only-branch options. But calling
graphlog.revset() directly with only --only-branch set would leave it
unprocessed.
file in nested directory causes unexpected abort.
problems below should be fixed for recursive normalization route in
dirstate._normalize():
1. rsplit() may cause unpacking into more than 2 elements.
it should be called with 'maxsplit' argument to unpack
into 'd, f'
2. 'd' is replaced by normalized value prefixed with
'self._root', but this makes 'folded' as absolute path,
and it is unexpected one for caller of recursive
normalization
The 'start' variable pointed to qtip in self.series, but it was used for
indexing self.fullseries.
When fullseries had holes and the patch was moved to self.fullseries[start]
it would end up too early in self.series and it could thus not be
found in self.series[start:] and it would crash.
Now the 'fullstart' index in fullseries is found used instead.
