The home of 'Abort' is 'error' not 'util' however, a lot of code seems to be
confused about that and gives all the credit to 'util' instead of the
hardworking 'error'. In a spirit of equity, we break the cycle of injustice and
give back to 'error' the respect it deserves. And screw that 'util' poser.
For great justice.
Extension authors (notably at companies using hg) have been
cargo-culting the `testedwith = 'internal'` bit from hg's own
extensions, which then defeats our "file bugs over here" logic in
dispatch. Let's be more aggressive about trying to give extension
authors a hint about what testedwith should say.
Use the existing method cmdutil.bailifchanged() instead of
implementing it again in fetch.py. An effect of this is that the error
messages in case of uncommited changes will be different.
This patch passes 'editform' argument according to the format below:
EXTENSION[.COMMAND][.ROUTE]
- EXTENSION: name of extension
- COMMAND: name of command, if there are two or more commands in EXTENSION
- ROUTE: name of route, if there are two or more routes in COMMAND
In this patch, COMMAND and ROUTE are omitted.
This patch changes help text for "--edit" option of commands below:
- fetch
- qnew
- qrefresh
- qfold
- commit
- tag
This unification reduces translation cost, too.
This patch chooses not "further edit commit message already specified"
(of "hg commit") but "invoke editor on commit messages" as unified
help text for "--edit" option, because the latter is much older than
the former.
The introduction of the new URL parsing code has created a startup
time regression. This is mainly due to the use of url.hasscheme() in
the ui class. It ends up importing many libraries that the url module
requires.
This fix helps marginally, but if we can get rid of the urllib import
in the URL parser all together, startup time will go back to normal.
perfstartup time before the URL refactoring (707e4b1e8064):
! wall 0.050692 comb 0.000000 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 (best of 100)
current startup time (9ad1dce9e7f4):
! wall 0.070685 comb 0.000000 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 (best of 100)
after this change:
! wall 0.064667 comb 0.000000 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 (best of 100)
this helps users to know what kind of option is:
- no value is required(flag option)
- value is required
- value is required, and multiple occurrences are allowed
each kinds are shown as below:
-f --force force push
-e --ssh CMD specify ssh command to use
-b --branch BRANCH [+] a specific branch you would like to push
if one or more 3rd type options are shown, explanation for '[+]' mark
is also shown as footnote.
It is not very helpful to have 'Added tag %s for changeset %s' and
similar messages translated into different languages when people work
together using different locales.
We now use English strings without support for translations. If
needed, the user can still supply a custom string for most commands.
Trying as much as possible to consistently:
- use a present tense predicate followed by a direct object
- verb referring directly to the functionality provided
(ie. not "add command that does this" but simple "do that")
- keep simple and to the point, leaving details for the long help
(width is tight, possibly even more so for translations)
Thanks to timeless, Martin Geisler, Rafael Villar Burke, Dan Villiom
Podlaski Christiansen and others for the helpful suggestions.
Changes docstrings to begin with a lowercase word. Only docstrings
used in help output is changed.
Scripts are not expected to grep the output of 'hg help' so this
change should pose no problem with regard to the compatibility rules.
Previously, fetch didn't really work when there were multiple named branches
in the repository. Now it tries to do the right thing(tm) in all situations.
