+ Add a description of how to enable this extension
+ Note which command it provides (it's not very easy to guess
that "hgext.patchbomb" enables the "email" command, unless one
can read Python sources)
+ Expand the descriptions of the -n and -m options of "hg email".
+ Mention that formail is (commonly) part of the procmail package.
* Capitalize the first letter of all sentences
* Add an example for GNU diff(1) 'context diff' mode.
* Explain the requirement for separate cmd.xxx and opts.xxx
options in .hgrc, which hopefully will guard against users
trying to add:
[extdiff]
# Add a new Mercurial command called `cdiff', which calls
# GNU diff(1) in 'context diff' mode.
cmd.cdiff = diff -Nprc5
which fails for recent crew builds with:
$ hg cdiff .
making snapshot of 1 files from rev 07dc4a569f4e
making snapshot of 1 files from working dir
diff -Nprc5: not found
The correct way to do this is by separating the cmd.cdiff and
opts.cdiff parts like this:
[extdiff]
# Add a new Mercurial command called `cdiff', which calls
# GNU diff(1) in 'context diff' mode.
cmd.cdiff = diff
opts.cdiff = -Nprc5
so add it as a new example and explicitly describe it in the
extdiff comments.
rename commands.dodiff to patch.diff.
rename commands.doexport to patch.export.
move some functions from commands to new mercurial.cmdutil module.
turn list of diff options into mdiff.diffopts class.
patch.diff and patch.export now has clean api for call from 3rd party
python code.
implement quilt-style guards for mq.
guards allow to control whether patch can be pushed.
if guard X is active and patch is guarded by +X (called "posative guard"),
patch can be pushed. if patch is guarded by -X (called "nagative guard"),
patch cannot be pushed and is skipped.
use qguard to set/list guards on patches. use qselect to set/list
active guards.
also "qseries -v" prints guarded patches with "G" now.
