The way default marker template was defined before this patch,
the spacing before dash in conflict markes was dependent on
whether changeset is a tip one or not. This is a relevant part
of template:
'{ifeq(tags, "tip", "", "{tags} "}'
If revision is a tip revision with no other tags, this would
resolve to an empty string, but for revisions which are not tip
and don't have any other tags, this would resolve to a single
space string. In the end this causes weirdnesses like the ones
you can see in the affected tests.
This is a not a big deal, but double spacing may be visually
less pleasant.
Please note that test changes where commit hashes change are
the result of marking files as resolved without removing markers.
The current output for a failed merge with conflict markers looks something like:
merging foo
warning: conflicts during merge.
merging foo incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
merging bar
warning: conflicts during merge.
merging bar incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
We're going to change the way merges are done to perform all premerges before
all merges, so that the output above would look like:
merging foo
merging bar
warning: conflicts during merge.
merging foo incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
warning: conflicts during merge.
merging bar incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
The 'warning: conflicts during merge' line has no context, so is pretty
confusing.
This patch will change the future output to:
merging foo
merging bar
warning: conflicts while merging foo! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
warning: conflicts while merging bar! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
The hint on how to resolve the conflicts makes this a bit unwieldy, but solving
that is tricky because we already hint that people run 'hg resolve' to retry
unresolved merges. The 'hg resolve --mark' mostly applies to conflict marker
based resolution.
We already have a ":" after the user name to denote the start of the
description. The current usage of quotes around the description is
problematic as the truncation to 80 chars is likely to drop the
closing quote. This may confuse syntax coloration in some editors.
Add custom conflict markers 'working copy' and 'destination' for doing hg update
when there are conflicts between your working copy and the destination.
Adds a conflict marker formatter that can produce custom conflict marker
descriptions. It can be set via ui.mergemarkertemplate. The old behavior
can be used still by setting ui.mergemarkers=basic.
The default format is similar to:
{node|short} {tag} {branch} {bookmarks} - {author}: "{desc|firstline}"
And renders as:
