update: don't overwrite untracked ignored files on update
When looking for untracked files that would conflict with a tracked
file in the target revision (or the remote side of a merge), we
explcitly exclude ignored files. The code was added in 7e30f5f2285f
(merge: refactor unknown file conflict checking, 2012-02-09), but it
seems like only unknown, not ignored, files were considered since the
beginning of time.
Although ignored files are mostly build outputs and backup files, we
should still not overwrite them. Fix by simply removing the explicit
check.
#require symlink
Create extension that can disable symlink support:
$ cat > nolink.py <<EOF
> from mercurial import extensions, util
> def setflags(orig, f, l, x):
> pass
> def checklink(orig, path):
> return False
> def extsetup(ui):
> extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'setflags', setflags)
> extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'checklink', checklink)
> EOF
$ hg init unix-repo
$ cd unix-repo
$ echo foo > a
$ ln -s a b
$ hg ci -Am0

$ cd ..
Simulate a checkout shared on NFS/Samba:
$ hg clone -q unix-repo shared
$ cd shared
$ rm b
$ echo foo > b
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py status --debug
ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"
Make a clone using placeholders:
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py clone . ../win-repo
updating to branch default
2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ cd ../win-repo
$ cat b
a (no-eol)
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
Empty placeholder:
$ rm b
$ touch b
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"
Write binary data to the placeholder:
>>> open('b', 'w').write('this is a binary\0')
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"
Write a long string to the placeholder:
>>> open('b', 'w').write('this' * 1000)
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"
Commit shouldn't succeed:
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
nothing changed

Write a valid string to the placeholder:
>>> open('b', 'w').write('this')
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug

$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
