This changes the prompts on git subrepos to show only the first seven
digits of git changeset IDs (as git's command line does):
$ hg update
subrepository sources for s differ (in checked out version)
use (l)ocal source (32a3438) or (r)emote source (da5f5b1)?
Consider a repository with a single subrepository. The changesets in
the main repository reference the subrepository changesets like this:
m0 -> s0
m1 -> s1
m2 -> s2
Starting from a state (m1, s0), doing 'hg update m2' in the main
repository will yield a conflict: the subrepo is at revision s0 but
the target revision says it should be at revision s2.
Before this change, Mercurial would do (m1, s0) -> (m2, s2) and thus
ignore the conflict between the working copy and the target revision.
With this change, the user is prompted to resolve the conflict by
choosing which revision he wants. This is consistent with 'hg merge',
which also prompts the user when it detects conflicts in the merged
.hgsubstate files.
The prompt looks like this:
$ hg update tip
subrepository sources for my-subrepo differ
use (l)ocal source (fc627a69481f) or (r)emote source (12a213df6fa9)?
This makes 'hg update --clean' behave the same way for all three kinds
of subrepositories [hg, svn, git]. Before git subrepos did not take
the clean parameter into account, but just updated to the given
revision and merged uncommitted changes into that.
This patch conforms gitsubrepo code to the variable naming scheme of the other
subrepo implementations. All user-facing path references should be relative
to the root repository.
This continues the strategy of separation between hg pull and hg update in
git subrepos by only dealing with git's branches on an update. This behavior
tries to cover the bare essentials of the semantics of git pull in the subrepo
when the parent repo does hg pull and hg update.
Avoids calls to git push when the revision is already known to be
in the remote repository. Now, when using a read-only git subrepo,
git will never need to talk to its upstream repository.
