tests: raise a better error when patterns are wrongly formatted
It is fairly easy to make mistakes when merging conflict in the pattern file.
A common mistake is to forget adding an extra trailing comma changing the
length of the tuple.
We now detect such error and raise a better error message that helps to find
it.
$ hg init
$ touch a
$ unset HGUSER
$ echo "[ui]" >> .hg/hgrc
$ echo "username= foo" >> .hg/hgrc
$ echo " bar1" >> .hg/hgrc
$ hg ci -Am m
adding a
abort: username 'foo\nbar1' contains a newline
[255]
$ rm .hg/hgrc
$ HGUSER=`(echo foo; echo bar2)` hg ci -Am m
adding a
abort: username 'foo\nbar2' contains a newline
[255]
$ hg ci -Am m -u "`(echo foo; echo bar3)`"
adding a
transaction abort!
rollback completed
