As stated in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc664727.aspx, when you
compile an application with MSVC 2008 SP1 it is bound by default to the
original CRT version (9.0.21022.8). This is the case for Python 2.6 up to 3.1.
If the wrong CRT version is embedded in the Inno Setup installer, with a PC
that does not have the MSVC 2008 redistributable package installed, hg will
refuse to launch with an error: "the system cannot execute the specified
program".
This fixes problems some have reported using the eol extension
together with TortoiseHg. It ensures the ui associated with the
repository has the preupdate.eol hook configured.
This patch fixes issues with stream cloning in the presense of parentdelta,
lwcopy and similar additions that change the interpretation of the revlog
format, or the format itself.
Currently, the stream capability is sent like this:
stream=<version of changelog>
But the client doesn't actually check the version number; also, it only checks
the changelog and it doesn't capture the interpretation-changes and
flag-changes in parentdelta and lwcopy.
This patch removes the 'stream' capability whenever we use a non-basic revlog
format, to prevent old clients from receiving incorrect data. In those cases,
a new capability called 'streamreqs' is added instead. Instead of a revlog
version, it comes with a list of revlog-format relevant requirements, which
are a subset of the repository requirements, excluding things that are not
relevant for stream.
New clients use this to determine whether or not they can stream. Old clients
only look for the 'stream' capability, as always. New servers will still send
this when serving old repositories.
This complicates the code a bit, since attributes need to be masked together
correctly before they are applied. Perhaps the code should be redesigned at
some point, but this works well for now.
As with push, the optional destination path is ignored for the
subrepositories, i.e., they are always compared with their default
push path. Fixing this is Issue1852.
