tests/test-rollback.t

rollback: only restore dirstate and branch when appropriate.

If the working dir parent was destroyed by rollback, then the old
behaviour is perfectly reasonable: restore dirstate, branch, and
bookmarks. That way the working dir moves back to an existing
changeset rather than becoming an orphan.

But if the working dir parent was unaffected -- say, you updated to an
older changeset and then did rollback -- then it's silly to restore
dirstate and branch. So don't do that. Leave the status of the working
dir alone. (But always restore bookmarks, because that file refers to
changeset IDs that may have been destroyed.)

Two changesets this time so we rollback to a real changeset
  $ hg commit -m'add a again'
  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg commit -m'modify a'

Test issue 902 (current branch is preserved)
  $ hg branch test
  marked working directory as branch test
  $ hg rollback
  repository tip rolled back to revision 0 (undo commit)
  working directory now based on revision 0
  $ hg branch
  default

Test issue 1635 (commit message saved)
  $ cat .hg/last-message.txt ; echo
  modify a

Test rollback of hg before issue 902 was fixed

  $ hg commit -m "test3"
  $ hg branch test
  marked working directory as branch test
  $ rm .hg/undo.branch
  $ hg rollback
  repository tip rolled back to revision 0 (undo commit)
  named branch could not be reset: current branch is still 'test'
  working directory now based on revision 0
  $ hg branch
  test

working dir unaffected by rollback: do not restore dirstate et. al.
  $ hg log --template '{rev}  {branch}  {desc|firstline}\n'
  0  default  add a again
  $ hg status
  M a
  $ hg bookmark foo
  $ hg commit -m'modify a again'
  $ echo b > b
  $ hg commit -Am'add b'
  adding b
  $ hg log --template '{rev}  {branch}  {desc|firstline}\n'
  2  test  add b
  1  test  modify a again
  0  default  add a again
  $ hg update default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ hg bookmark bar
  $ cat .hg/undo.branch ; echo
  test
  $ hg rollback
  repository tip rolled back to revision 1 (undo commit)
  $ hg id -n
  0
  $ hg branch
  default
  $ cat .hg/bookmarks.current ; echo
  bar
  $ hg bookmark --delete foo

rollback by pretxncommit saves commit message (issue 1635)

  $ echo a >> a
  $ hg --config hooks.pretxncommit=false commit -m"precious commit message"
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
  abort: pretxncommit hook exited with status * (glob)
  [255]
  $ cat .hg/last-message.txt ; echo
  precious commit message

same thing, but run $EDITOR

  $ cat > editor << '__EOF__'
  > #!/bin/sh
  > echo "another precious commit message" > "$1"
  > __EOF__
  $ chmod +x editor
  $ HGEDITOR="'`pwd`'"/editor hg --config hooks.pretxncommit=false commit 2>&1
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
  note: commit message saved in .hg/last-message.txt
  abort: pretxncommit hook exited with status * (glob)
  [255]
  $ cat .hg/last-message.txt
  another precious commit message

test rollback on served repository

  $ hg commit -m "precious commit message"
  $ hg serve -p $HGPORT -d --pid-file=hg.pid -A access.log -E errors.log
  $ cat hg.pid >> $DAEMON_PIDS
  $ cd ..
  $ hg clone http://localhost:$HGPORT u
  requesting all changes
  adding changesets
  adding manifests
  adding file changes
  added 3 changesets with 2 changes to 1 files (+1 heads)
  updating to branch default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cd u
  $ hg id default
  068774709090

now rollback and observe that 'hg serve' reloads the repository and
presents the correct tip changeset:

  $ hg -R ../t rollback
  repository tip rolled back to revision 1 (undo commit)
  working directory now based on revision 0
  $ hg id default
