util: dates cannot consist entirely of whitespace (issue2732)

convert/mtn: convert suspended branches as closed branches Monotone treats branch closing ("suspending") in a similar manner to how we do in mercurial - a cert is added to a revision that marks the branch to be hidden. If a subsequent commit is made, the branch is effectively reopened.

rebase: don't mark file as removed if missing in parent's manifest (issue2725)

windows: use win32.unlink in unlinkpath() os.unlink fails to remove files with READONLY attribute

win32: remove READONLY attribute on unlink

windows: move unlink to win32.py no code change

ui: label prompts, default to yellow prompts

record: replace poor man's if-statement with real if-statement

url: use url.url in hidepassword() and removeauth()

subrepos: use url.url when normalizing repo paths This works around an issue in older versions of Python that would strip double slashes from SSH URLs when using urlunparse() on a parsed URL. Related issues: - issue1755: WinXP: cmd line hg 1.3 clone of subrepo fails, due to %5C '\'? (originally fixed by f783bb979fb3).

url: provide url object This adds a url object that re-implements urlsplit() and unsplit(). The implementation splits out usernames, passwords, and ports. The implementation is based on the behavior specified by RFC 2396[1]. However, it is much more forgiving than the RFC's specification; it places no specific restrictions on what characters are allowed in each segment of the URL other than what is necessary to split the URL into its constituent parts.

cmdutil: fix mode handling in make_file

revlog: change variable name to avoid reuse

debugstate: add new --datesort option sorts the output lines by mtime, then by filename

rebase: restore mq guards after rebasing (issue2107) Guards on rebased mq patches were lost. This patch restores them after the qimporting step.

tests: no need to explicitly export HOME in test files the test runner ensures that HOME is set to a temp dir

tests: set HOME to the test temp dir (issue2707)

dirstate: eliminate _lastnormal set We can get rid of the _lastnormal set by using the filesystem mtimes to identify the problematic "lastnormal" files on status(), forcing a file content-comparison if the file's mtime timeslot is equal to _lastnormaltime.

test-extdiff: fix 5c0e1222e7c0 temporary dir output

convert/mtn: avoid unnecessary initial test of mtn repo As soon as before() is called, we'll know if there is a problem (and get a better error message).

convert/mtn: add support for using monotone's "automate stdio" when available Currently the convert extension spawns a new mtn process for each operation. For a large repository, this ends up being hundreds of thousands of processes. The following enables usage of monotone's "automate stdio" functionality - documented at: http://www.monotone.ca/docs/Automation.html#index-mtn-automate-stdio-188 The effect is that (after determining that a new enough mtn executable is available) a single long-running mtn process is used for all the operations, using stdin/stdout to send commands and read output. This has a pretty significant effect on the performance of some parts of the conversion process.

convert: add support to common commandline to access stdin of the process

extdiff: use absolute paths for any temporary files This allows the use of p4merge amongst possible other external tools.

convert: add bookmark support to hg source

convert: add bookmarks reading support to git backend

ssh: fix password test We don't support passwords in ssh URLs, and neither do some versions of Python's urllib. Since we don't actually care much here, punt with a glob in the test.

dirstate: check mtime when adding to _lastnormal - consistently use mtime as mapped to dirstate granularity (needed for filesystems like NTFS, which have sub-second resolution) - no need to add files with mtime < _lastnormaltime - improve comments

subrepo: simplify hgsubrepo._get a little

Fix expected url to match test.

patch: deprecate ui.patch / external patcher feature Why? - Mercurial internal patcher works correctly for regular patches and git patches, is much faster at least on Windows and is more extensible. - In theory, the external patcher can be used to handle exotic patch formats. I do not know any and have not heard about any such use in years. - Most patch programs cannot handle git format patches, which makes the API caller to decide either to ignore ui.patch by calling patch.internalpatch() directly, or take the risk of random failures with valid inputs. - One thing a patch program could do Mercurial patcher cannot is applying with --reverse. Apparently several shelve like extensions try to use that, including passing the "reverse" option to Mercurial patcher, which has been removed mid-2009. I never heard anybody complain about that, and would prefer reimplementing it anyway. And from the technical perspective: - The external patcher makes everything harder to maintain and implement. EOL normalization is not implemented, and I would bet file renames, if supported by the patcher, are not correctly recorded in the dirstate. - No tests. How? - Remove related documentation - Clearly mark patch.externalpatch() as private - Remove the debuginstall check. This deprecation request was actually triggered by this last point. debuginstall is the only piece of code patching without a repository. When migrating to an integrated patch() + updatedir() call, this was really a showstopper, all workarounds were either ugly or uselessly complicated to implement. If we do not support external patcher anymore, the debuginstall check is not useful anymore. - Remove patch.externalpatch() after 1.9 release.
