When issuing `hg pull -r REV` in a repo with no common ancestor with the
remote repo, the message 'requesting all changes' is printed, even though only
the changese that are ancestors of REV are actually requested. This can be
confusing for users (see
http://www.selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/2010-October/035508.html).
This silences the message if (and only if) the '-r' option was passed.
This adds a " (glob)" marker that works like a simpler version of
(re): "*" is converted to ".*", and "?" is converted to ".".
Both special characters can be escaped using "\", and the backslash
itself can be escaped as well.
Other glob-style syntax, like "**", "[chars]", or "[!chars]", isn't
supported.
Consider this test:
$ hg glog --template '{rev}:{node|short} "{desc}"\n'
@ 2:20c4f79fd7ac "3"
|
| o 1:38f24201dcab "2"
|/
o 0:2a18120dc1c9 "1"
Because each line beginning with "|" can be compiled as a regular
expression (equivalent to ".*|"), they will match any output.
Similarly:
$ echo foo
The blank output line can be compiled as a regular expression and will
also match any output.
With this patch, none of the above output lines will be matched as
regular expressions. A line must end in " (re)" in order to be matched
as one.
Lines are still matched literally first, so the following will pass:
$ echo 'foo (re)'
foo (re)
