$DAEMON_PIDS is used by tests to make sure there will be no leftover
processes, the cycling through ports is needed because they are not
available for a new bind that quickly on some systems.
There are not enough $HGPORT variables available for each hg serve,
so use the killdaemons script before reusing ports.
While Chrome, Firefox, and IE 6+ support the current date format being
passed to Date(), Safari doesn't:
> new Date('Mon Oct 24 13:58:01 2011 +0200')
Invalid Date
However, the rfc822date format--officially supported by
ECMAScript[1]--does work:
> new Date('Mon, 24 Oct 2011 13:58:01 +0200')
Mon Oct 24 2011 04:58:01 GMT-0700 (PDT)
This change replaces all instances of {date|date} in HTML with
{date|rfc822date}. For elements that only have the "age" class,
there's no outward change for users with JavaScript enabled. For
elements with both the "age" and "date" classes, the full date
displayed uses the new format.
Tested in IE 6, Safari 5.1.1, Google Chrome 15, and Firefox 7.0.1.

When dirstate parent is changed with dirstate.setparent before a
revert so it no longer points to where the dirstate refered to, revert
does not remove all files it should:
Revert to a different revision needs also to remove files that are not
found through disptables and not in the context or parent manifest.
- old-style patterns without ^ were getting improperly anchored
- finditer was matching against beginning of line poorly
- \s was matching newlines
- [^x] was matching newlines
so we:
- remove earlier hacks for multiline matching
- fix unified test anchoring by adding .*
- replace \s with [ \t]
- replace [^x] with [^\nx]
- force all matches into multiline mode so ^ anchors work
This uncovers a number of test issues that are then repaired.
What is a "publishing repository"?
==================================
Setting a repository as "publishing" alter its behavior **when used as a
server**: all changesets are **seen** as public changesets by clients.
So, pushing to a "publishing" repository is the most common way to make
changesets public: pushed changesets are seen as public on the remote side and
marked as such on local side.
Note: the "publishing" property have no effects for local operations.
Old repository are publishing
=============================
Phase is the first step of a series of features aiming at handling mutable
history within mercurial. Old client do not support such feature and are unable
to hold phase data. The safest solution is to consider as public any changeset
going through an old client.
Moreover, most hosting solution will not support phase from the beginning.
Having old clients seen as public repositories will not change their usage:
public repositories where you push *immutable* public changesets *shared* with
others.
Why is "publishing" the default?
================================
We discussed above that any changeset from a non-phase aware repository should
be seen as public. This means that in the following scenario, X is pulled as
public::
~/A$ old-hg init
~/A$ echo 'babar' > jungle
~/A$ old-hg commit -mA 'X'
~/A$ cd ../B
~/B$ new-hg pull ../A # let's pretend A is served by old-hg
~/B$ new-hg log -r tip
summary: X
phase: public
We want to keep this behavior while creating/serving the A repository with
``new-hg``. Although committing with any ``new-hg`` creates a draft changeset.
To stay backward compatible, the pull must see the new commit as public.
Non-publishing server will advertise them as draft. Having publishing repository
the default is thus necessary to ensure this backward compatibility.
This default value can also be expressed with the following sentence: "By
default, without any configuration, everything you exchange with the outside is
immutable.". This behaviour seems sane.
Why allow draft changeset in publishing repository
=====================================================
Note: The publish option is aimed at controlling the behavior of *server*.
Changeset in any state on a publishing server will **always*** be seen as public
by other client. "Passive" repository which are only used as server for pull and
push operation are not "affected" by this section.
As in the choice for default, the main reason to allow draft changeset in
publishing server is backward compatibility. With an old client, the following
scenario is valid::
~/A$ old-hg init
~/A$ echo 'babar' > jungle
~/A$ old-hg commit -mA 'X'
~/A$ old-hg qimport -r . # or any other mutable operation on X
If the default is publishing and new commits in such repository are "public" The
following operation will be denied as X will be an **immutable** public
changeset. However as other clients see X as public, any pull//push (or event
pull//pull) will mark X as public in repo A.
Allowing enforcement of public changeset only repository through config is
probably something to do. This could be done with another "strict" option or a
third value config for phase related option (mode=public, publishing(default),
mutable)
Extended the list of safe characters introduced in c3194121de6c to include
everything from pipes._safechars, which is only available on Unix platforms.
Place "-" at the end of the range to avoid backslash-escape.
New characters: @%+=:,
This makes bookmarks.update() and bookmarks.updatecurrentbookmark() return
True or False to indicate whether the bookmark was updated or not. This allows
callers to e.g. abort if the update failed.
Makes the 'nothing to merge' abort messages in commands.py consistent with
those in merge.py. Also makes commands.merge() and merge.update() use hints.
The tests show the changes.
I have not tried to produce the bug but here is idea: b2b0622d9e96 stopped
passing the modified files list to commit. This makes commit more fragile since
we better not touch unrelated files by mistake. But putcommit() still applies
file changes before exiting upon ignored revisions. So in theory, we could
apply changes from a skipped branch then commit them as part of another
revision.
This patch makes the sink apply the changes after possibly skipping the
revision. The real fix would be to use svn commit --targets option to pass the
file names in an argument file. Unfortunately, it seems to be bugged in svn
1.7.1:
