resolve: print message when no unresolved files remain (issue4214) When using resolve, users often have to consult with the output of |hg resolve -l| to see if any unresolved files remain. This step is tedious and adds overhead to resolving. This patch will notify a user if there are no unresolved files remaining after executing |hg resolve|:: no unresolved files; you may continue your unfinished operation The patch stops short of telling the user exactly what command should be executed to continue the unfinished operation. That is because this information is not currently captured anywhere. This would make a compelling follow-up feature.

resolve: print warning when no work performed (issue4208) Previously, if the paths specified as arguments to |hg resolve| were invalid, they were silently ignored and a no-op would ensue. This patch fixes that in some scenarios. If none of the paths specified to |hg resolve| match a path that is in mergestate, a warning will be emitted. Ideally, a warning would be emitted for every path/pattern specified that doesn't match anything. To achieve this would require significant refactoring of the matching subsystem. That work is beyond the scope of this patch series. Something is better than nothing and this patch gets us something.

resolve: abort when not applicable (BC) The resolve command is only relevant when mergestate is present. This patch will make resolve abort when no mergestate is present. This change will let people know when they are using resolve when they shouldn't be. This change will let people know when their use of resolve doesn't do anything. Previously, |hg resolve -m| would allow mergestate to be created. This patch now forbids that. Strictly speaking, this is backwards incompatible. The author of this patch believes creating mergestate via resolve doesn't make much sense and this side-effect was unintended.
