In some case Backout silently succeeded to back out but left all the change
uncommitted. This may be confusing for user so this changeset add a note
reminding to commit. Other backout case already actively informs the user about
created commit.
Before the changeset the backout process was:
1) go to <target>
2) revert to <target> parent
3) update back to changeset we came from
The two update steps can takes a very long time to move back and forth unrelated
file change between <target> and current working directory.
The new process is just merging current working directory with the parent of
<target> using <target> as ancestor. This give the very same result but skip
the two updates. On big repo with a lot of files and changes that save a lots of
time (x20 for one week window).
The "merge" version (hg backout --merge) is still done with upgrades. We could
imagine using in memory commit to speed it up but this is another fish.
Before this patch, phase of newly created commit is determined by
"phases.new-commit" configuration regardless of phase of state in each
subrepositories.
For example, this may cause the "public" revision in the parent
repository referring the "secret" one in subrepository.
This patch checks phase of state in each subrepositories before
committing in the parent, and aborts or changes phase of newly created
commit if subrepositories have more restricted phase than the parent.
This patch uses "follow" as default value of "phases.checksubrepos"
configuration, because it can keep consistency between phases of the
parent and subrepositories without breaking existing tool chains.
"use push -f to force" in the hint at abortion of "hg push" may cause
novice users to execute "push -f" easily without understanding about
problems of multiple branch heads in the repository.
This patch hides description about "-f" in the hint, and leads into
seeing "hg help push" for details about pushing new heads.
When a subrepo has changed on the local and remote revisions, prompt the user
whether it wants to merge those subrepo revisions, keep the local revision or
keep the remote revision.
Up until now mercurial would always perform a merge on a subrepo that had
changed on the local and the remote revisions. This is often inconvenient. For
example:
- You may want to perform the actual subrepo merge after you have merged the
parent subrepo files.
- Some subrepos may be considered "read only", in the sense that you are not
supposed to add new revisions to them. In those cases "merging a subrepo" means
choosing which _existing_ revision you want to use on the merged revision. This
is often the case for subrepos that contain binary dependencies (such as DLLs,
etc).
This new prompt makes mercurial better cope with those common scenarios.
Notes:
- The default behavior (which is the one that is used when ui is not
interactive) remains unchanged (i.e. merge is the default action).
- This prompt will be shown even if the ui --tool flag is set.
- I don't know of a way to test the "keep local" and "keep remote" options (i.e.
to force the test to choose those options).

merge: let the user choose to merge, keep local or keep remote subrepo revisions
When a subrepo has changed on the local and remote revisions, prompt the user
whether it wants to merge those subrepo revisions, keep the local revision or
keep the remote revision.

Publishing server may contains draft changeset when they are created locally. As
publishing is the default, it is actually fairly common. Because of this
"inconsistency" phases synchronization may be done even to publishing server.
This may cause severe issues for subrepo. It is possible to reference read-only
repository as subrepo. Push in a super repo recursively push subrepo. Those
pushes to potential read only repo are not optional, they are "suffered" not
"choosed". This does not break because as the repo is untouched the push is
supposed to be empty. If the reference repo locally contains draft changesets, a
courtesy push is triggered to turn them public. As the repo is read only, the
push fails (after possible prompt asking for credential). Failure of the
sub-push aborts the whole subrepo push. This force the user to define a custom
default-push for such subrepo.
This changeset introduce a prevention of this error client side by skipping the
courtesy phase synchronisation in problematic situation. The phases
synchronisation is skipped when four conditions are gathered:
- this is a subrepo push, (normal push to read-only repo)
- and remote support phase
- and remote is publishing
- and no changesets was pushed (if we pushed changesets, repo is not read only)
The internal config option used in this version is not definitive. It is here to
demonstrate a working fix to the issue.
In the future we probably wants to track subrepo changes and avoid pushing to
untouched one. That will prevent any attempt to push to read-only or unreachable
subrepo.
Another fix to prevent courtesy push from older clients to push to newer server
is also still needed.
Show messages at a point where the actions have been sorted, thus preparing for
backout of 14f4258e3526.
This makes manifestmerge more of a silent operation, just like 'copies' is.
Indent 'preserving' messages to make them subordinate to the action logging so
they fit in the new context. (The 'preserving' messages are quite redundant and
could also be removed completely.)
Locating the share source when no default path is available is now handled in
subrepo._abssource(), so unconditionally setting a default path (and the
associated problems) can be avoided.
The test change reflects the fact that a default path is no longer set on the
resulting share.
This is an alternative fix for issue3518, enabling sharing of repositories with
subrepos, without unconditionally setting the default path in the resulting
repo's hgrc file. Better test coverage is added here, but won't prove this code
is working until f48752441ca0 is backed out.
The problem with the original fix is, if a default path is not available to be
copied over from the share source, the default path on the resulting repo is set
to the source location. Since that's where the actual repository is stored, the
path is essentially self-referential, so push, pull, incoming and outgoing
effectively operate on itself. While incoming and outgoing make it look like
nothing was changed, push currently hangs (see issue3657). In this case where
there is not a real default path, these operations should abort with
"default(-push) not found", like the source repo would. Note this problem with
the original fix affected repos without subrepos too.
This change appends the subrepo path to subrepo errors. That is, when there
is an error performing an operation a subrepo, rather than displaying a message
such as:
pushing subrepo MYSUBREPO to PATH
searching for changes
abort: push creates new remote head HEADHASH!
hint: did you forget to merge? use push -f to force
mercurial will show:
pushing subrepo MYSUBREPO to PATH
searching for changes
abort: push creates new remote head HEADHASH! (in subrepo MYSUBREPO)
hint: did you forget to merge? use push -f to force
The rationale for this change is that the current error messages make it hard
for TortoiseHg (and similar tools) to tell the user which subrepo caused the
push failure.
The "(in subrepo MYSUBREPO)" message has been added to those subrepo methods
were it made sense (by using a decorator). We avoid appending "(in subrepo XXX)"
multiple times when subrepos are nexted by throwing a "SubrepoAbort" exception
after the extra message is appended. The decorator will then "ignore" (i.e. just
re-raise) the exception and never add the message again.
A small drawback of this method is that part of the exception trace is lost when
the exception is catched and re-raised by the annotatesubrepoerror decorator.
Also, because the state() function already printed the subrepo path when it
threw an error, that error has been changed to avoid duplicating the subrepo
path in the error message.
Note that I have also updated several subrepo related tests to reflect these
changes.
Files in a subrepo were overwritten on update. But this should only happen on a
clean update (example: -C is specified).
Use the overwrite parameter introduced for svn subrepos in e3640daa4703 to
decide whether to merge changes (as update) or remove them (as clean).
The new function hg.updaterepo is intruduced to keep all update calls in hg.
test-subrepo.t is extended to test if an untracked file is overwritten
(issue3276). (Update -C is already tested in many places.)
The first two chunks are debugging output which has changed. (Because overwrite
is not always true anymore for subrepos)
All other tests still pass without any change.
Some tests ended up in a directory several directories deeper than $TESTTMP,
usually because some 'cd ..' had been forgotten between different test cases.
Add 'cd ..' where they are missing so the tests get back where they started.
When a subrepo is reverted but --no-backup is not set, call revert on the
subrepo that is being reverted prior to updating it to the revision specified
in the parent repo's .hgsubstate file.
The --all flag is passed down to the subrepo when it is being reverted. If the
--all flag is not set, all files that are modified on the subrepo will be
reverted.
Reverting a subrepo is done by updating it to the revision that is selected on
the parent repo .hgsubstate file.
* ISSUES/TODO:
- reverting added and removed subrepos is not supported yet.
- reverting subrepos is only supported if the --no-backup flag is used (this
limitation will be removed on another patch).
- The behavior of the --all flag has been changed. It now reverts subrepos as
well. Note that this may lead to data loss if the user has a dirty subrepo.
When the contents of .hgsubstate are stale (either because they've
manually been tweaked or partial updates have confused it), we get
confused about whether it actually needs committing.
So instead, we actively consult the parent's substate and compare it
the actual current state when deciding whether it needs committing.
Side effect: lots of "committing subrepo" messages that didn't
correspond with real commits disappear.
This change is fairly invasive for a fairly obscure condition, so it's
kept on the default branch.
Currently we have the following return codes if nothing is found:
commit incoming outgoing pull push
intended 1 1 1 1 1
documented 1 1 1 0 1
actual 1 1 1 0 1
This makes pull agree with the rest of the table and makes it easy to
detect "nothing was pulled" in scripts.
Change the behavior of the forget command such that explicit paths in
subrepos are handled by forgetting the file in the subrepo. This eliminates the
previous behavior where if you called "hg forget" for an explicit path in a
subrepo, it would state that the file is already untracked.
This changeset flips the default value of ui.commitsubrepos setting
from True to False and adds a --subrepos flag to commit.
The commit, status, and diff commands behave like this with regard to
recusion and the ui.commitsubrepos setting:
| recurses | recurses
| by default | with --subrepos
--------+---------------+----------------
commit: | commitsubrepo | True
status: | False | True
diff: | False | True
By changing the default from True to False, the table becomes
consistent in the two columns:
* without --subrepos on the command line, commit will abort if a
subrepo is dirty and status/diff wont show changes inside subrepos.
* with --subrepos, all three commands will recurse.
A --subrepos flag on the command line overrides the config settin.g
Globbing is usually used for filenames, so on windows it is reasonable and very
convenient that glob patterns accepts '\' or '/' when the pattern specifies
'/'.
