log: display closing-branch nodes as "_" (BC)
In plain `hg log` there is no indication that a commit closes a
branch. You can use hg log --debug, but this is too verbose. A simple
idea copied from thg and other graphical viewers is to display the
node for a closing-branch commit as a horizontal line.
I think this technically is a BC if we consider the graphlog to be
part of the stdout API, but I really can't imagine who the hell is
parsing the graphlog to determine information about commits.
#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
adding a
adding b
$ 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
[1]
Write a valid string to the placeholder:
>>> open('b', 'w').write('this')
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
M b
$ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
$ hg manifest tip --verbose
