This patch adds access to util.h for the inotify C module by adding the
"mercurial" directory as an include dir, enabling access to the macros defined
in util.h.
In py3k, subprocess.Popen.communicate's output are bytes objects. String
literals are Unicode objects. Thus, when a bytes object startswith method is
called, with string literals, it fails. What this patch does is:
* Convert the string (unicode in py3k) literals to bytes objects;
* As "bytes" is not a builtin in python < 2.6, it defines a "b" helper
function that merely returns its argument, as suggested by Antoine Pitrou.
Windows python 2.4 os.stat() reports times including DST offset, while osutil.c
reports the correct value, which makes status() systematically compare files
content. This bug is fixed in python 2.5. Using osutil.py instead of osutil.c
is 4x times slower on large repositories but current code is completely
unusable. Given few people are likely to use python 2.4 on Windows this
solution was considered a good trade-off compared to more invasive solutions
trying to address the offset issue.
Fixes
warning: py2exe: Version Info will not be included:
could not parse version number ...
which was seen when doing nightly builds. hg.exe files
of nightly builds did not have any version info resoure,
which may cause problems with installers.
Also setting a copyright string for the version resource
(was missing).
Though we only support Python 2.4 or greater, we should keep setup.py
compatible with earlier versions on the syntactic level. Otherwise
people will simply get a SyntaxError when trying to install Mercurial
with an old version of Python. With this change, the setup.py file can
be imported with Python 2.3 and we then issue a friendly error message
when we detect that Python is too old.
Python will issue an ImportWarning when seeing 'import locale' if
there is a locale/ directory present without a __init__.py file.
The warning is silent by default, but it somehow shows up anyway on
Windows when setup.py executed hg. The warning causes runcmd to panic
since it sees output on stderr.
This patch ignores warnings on stderr about not importing a package.
Here is an array summarizing the mercurial version string:
[A] [B] [C] [D]
[1] clone tag clean => tag
[2] clone hash clean => latesttag+latesttagdistance-hash
[3] clone tag dirty => tag+date
[4] clone hash dirty => latesttag+latesttagdistance-hash+date
[5] archive tag clean => tag
[6] archive hash clean => latesttag+latesttagdistance-hash
Column [A]: Mercurial built from an hg *archive* or hg *clone* working directory
Column [B]: revision built has a *tag* or else default to the SHA1 *hash*
Column [C]: working tree *clean* or *dirty*
Column [D]: Mercurial version string
Over the previous version:
- row [5] did return just the node hash, now it returns the tag
- prepend the latest tag and the distance to it to rows [2][4][6]
- append also the date to row [3]; previously, it was just the tag
- the version string is with an empty string to avoid possible TypeError
exceptions during string manipulations
- factorize the function to run hg commands; remove the error message as it is
no more specific to the function.
This scheme enables to have first part of the version strings that can be
compared, whether it has been built from a tagged or untagged revision.
The second part of the version adds a hash for untagged revisions and today's
date if the working tree has local modifications.
As the version string does not contain spaces or special characters, it should
not break script parsing the 'hg version' command and should be usable for use
in file names.
The new code also ensure that the version string has exactly the same version
string, whether it has been built from an archive or from a clone.
The selection is somewhat arbitrary. In the case of the Zsh completion
file, it will not conflict with the builtin Zsh completions: they
are in a file named `_mercurial', not `_hg'.
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.
Previously, setup.py was enhanced to identify the Mercurial version
from either .hg/ or mercurial/__version__.py. When archives are
created using 'hg archive' or via hgweb, neither of those options are
available. However, there is a .hg_archival.txt file in the root of
the archive that has the information. This patch enhances setup.py to
identify the Mercurial version from the .hg_archival.txt file when
there is no .hg/ or mercurial/__version__.py available.
There is a problem with setup.py where it will not identify the Mercurial
version properly when not being ran in within a repository even if
mercurial/__version__.py exists.
To fix, use mercurial.__version__.version when available before defaulting
to "unknown". (Using mercurial.util.version() is not an option due to a
dependency issue where osutil can be referenced before it is built.)
- don't do version detection if there's no .hg directory
- shrink try: clause
- don't write __version__.py if version is unknown
(we might overwrite the real version)
This flag will make the build_py step install the pure Python modules
in mercurial/pure/ into mercurial/ and furthermore prevent building
the C extensions.
