convert/gnuarch: parse continuation-of revisions in gnuarch source
In GNU Arch, continuation-of was often used for:
- tagging revisions
- continue working on a project in a new archive, because arch
was scaling poorly in revision numbers (cat-logs were slow
to be parsed and scanned through)
- very similar to the previous point, fork his own branch of
a project.
Parsing this header information will allow to 'follow' new history
because it often hints at older/forked/personal revision trees.
This patch however just implements the parsing of the
continuation-of header. A followup patch will implement the proper
use of this new information.
#!/bin/sh
hg init a
echo a > a/a
hg --cwd a ci -Ama
hg clone a c
hg clone a b
echo b >> b/a
hg --cwd b ci -mb
echo % push should push to default when default-push not set
hg --cwd b push | sed 's/pushing to.*/pushing/'
echo % push should push to default-push when set
echo 'default-push = ../c' >> b/.hg/hgrc
hg --cwd b push | sed 's/pushing to.*/pushing/'
