commit: abort if a subrepo is modified and ui.commitsubrepos=no
The default behaviour is to commit subrepositories with uncommitted changes. In
my experience this is usually undesirable:
- Changes to dependencies are often debugging leftovers
- Real changes should generally be applied on the source project directly,
tested then committed. This is not always possible, subversion subrepos may
include only a small part of the source project, without the tests.
Setting ui.commitsubrepos=no will now abort commits containing such modified
subrepositories like:
$ hg --config ui.commitsubrepos=no ci -m msg
abort: uncommitted changes in subrepo sub
I ruled out the hook solution because it does not easily take --include/exclude
options in account. Also, my main concern is whether this flag could cause
problems with extensions. If there are legitimate reasons for callers to
override this behaviour (I could not find any), they might either override at ui
level, or we could add an argument to localrepo.commit() later.
v2:
- Renamed ui.commitsubs to ui.commitsubrepos
- Mention the configuration entry in hg help subrepos

$ hg branch branchA

$ hg up branchA
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ cd ../t
$ echo a2 > foo
$ hg ci -ma2 # 2
Create branch B:
$ hg up 0
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ hg branch branchB
marked working directory as branch branchB
$ echo b1 > foo
$ hg ci -mb1 # 3

A new branch is there
$ hg pull -u ../t

Develop both branches:
$ cd ../t
$ hg up branchA
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo a3 > foo
$ hg ci -ma3 # 4
$ hg up branchB
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b2 > foo
$ hg ci -mb2 # 5
$ cd ../tt
Should succeed, no new heads:
$ hg pull -u ../t

Add a head on other branch:
$ cd ../t
$ hg up branchA
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo a4 > foo
$ hg ci -ma4 # 6
$ hg up branchB
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b3.1 > foo
$ hg ci -m b3.1 # 7
$ hg up 5
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b3.2 > foo
$ hg ci -m b3.2 # 8
created new head
$ cd ../tt
Should succeed because there is only one head on our branch:
$ hg pull -u ../t

$ hg up 6

$ echo a5.2 > foo
$ hg ci -ma5.2 # 10

$ hg up 7

$ echo b4.1 > foo
$ hg ci -m b4.1 # 11
$ hg up -C 8
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ echo b4.2 > foo
