The purpose of this change is to make it much easier to navigate up the
repository tree when the hg web server is used to serve more than one
repository.
A "URL breadcrumb" is a path where each of the path items can be clicked to go
to the corresponding path page.
This lets you go up the folder hierarchy very quickly. For example, when showing
the list of repositories in http://myserver/myteams/myprojects, the following
"breadcrumb" will be shown:
Mercurial > myteams > myprojects
Clicking on "myprojects" reloads the page. Clicking on "myteams" goes up one
folder. Clicking on the leftmost "Mercurial" goes to the server root.
This "breadcrumb" also appears on all repository pages. For example on the
summary page of the repository at http://myserver/myteams/myprojects/myrepo the
following will be shown:
Mercurial > myteams > myprojects > myrepo / summary
This change has been applied to all templates that already had a link to the
main repository page (i.e. gitweb, monoblue, paper and coal) plus to the index
page of the spartan template.
In order to make the breadcumb links stand out the some of the template styles
have been customized.
Adds new web command to the core, ``comparison``, which enables colorful
side-by-side change display, which for some might be much easier to work with
than the standard line diff output. The idea how to implement comes from the
SonicHq extension.
The web interface gets a new link to call the comparison functionality. It lets
users configure the amount of context lines around change blocks, or to show
full files - check help (also in this changeset) for details and defaults. The
setting in hgrc can be overridden by adding ``context=<value>`` to the request
query string. The comparison creates addressable lines, so as to enable sharing
links to specific lines, just as standard diff does.
Incorporates updates to all web related styles.
Known limitations:
* the column diff is done against the first parent, just as the standard diff
* this change allows examining diffs for single files only (as I am not sure if
examining the whole changeset in this way would be helpful)
* syntax highlighting of the output changes is not performed (enabling the
highlight extension has no influence on it)
The coal and paper web themes will highlight closed branches as a visual cue to
the user. This patch makes the other two themes constistent.
For users with difficulty differentiating colors, it would be better to split
out closed branches to a new table or optionally hide them.
Remove the `install_package_data' subclass of `install_data' and use
the `package_data' functionality provided by distutils instead. As
package data must be located within the package directory, the data
files are now generated in the build directory.
To simplify the functionality of this change, the top-level `doc' and
`templates' directories have been moved into the `mercurial' package
directory.
