templater: make strings in template expressions be "string-escape"-ed correctly Changeset 64b4f0cd7336 (released with 2.8.1) fixed "recursively evaluate string literals as templates" problem (issue4102) by moving the location of "string-escape"-ing from "tokenizer()" to "compiletemplate()". But some parts in template expressions below are not processed by "compiletemplate()", and it may cause unexpected result. - 'expr' of 'if(expr, then, else)' - 'expr's of 'ifeq(expr, expr, then, else)' - 'sep' of 'join(list, sep)' - 'text' and 'style' of 'rstdoc(text, style)' - 'text' and 'chars' of 'strip(text, chars)' - 'pat' and 'repl' of 'sub(pat, repl, expr)' For example, '\n' of "{join(extras, '\n')}" is not "string-escape"-ed and treated as a literal '\n'. This breaks "Display the contents of the 'extra' field, one per line" example in "hg help templates". Just "string-escape"-ing on each parts above may not work correctly, because inside expression of nested ones already applies "string-escape" on string literals. For example: - "{join(files, '\n')}" doesn't return "string-escape"-ed string, but - "{join(files, if(branch, '\n', '\n'))}" does To fix this problem, this patch does: - introduce "rawstring" token and "runrawstring" method to handle strings not to be "string-escape"-ed correctly, and - make "runstring" method return "string-escape"-ed string, and delay "string-escape"-ing until evaluation This patch invokes "compiletemplate()" with "strtoken=exp[0]" in "gettemplate()", because "exp[1]" is not yet evaluated. This code path is tested via mapping ("expr % '{template}'"). In the other hand, this patch invokes it with "strtoken='rawstring'" in "_evalifliteral()", because "t" is the result of "arg" evaluation and it should be "string-escape"-ed if "arg" is "string" expression. This patch doesn't test "string-escape"-ing on 'expr' of 'if(expr, then, else)', because it doesn't affect the result.
