resolve: don't abort when file is missing

A file being missing is a completely valid situation in which the user may want
to re-resolve merge conflicts. Mercurial already maintains backups of local
data, so this turns out to be easy to handle.

test merge-tools configuration - mostly exercising filemerge.py

  $ unset HGMERGE # make sure HGMERGE doesn't interfere with the test
  $ hg init

revision 0

  $ echo "revision 0" > f
  $ echo "space" >> f
  $ hg commit -Am "revision 0"
  adding f

revision 1

  $ echo "revision 1" > f
  $ echo "space" >> f
  $ hg commit -Am "revision 1"
  $ hg update 0 > /dev/null

revision 2

  $ echo "revision 2" > f
  $ echo "space" >> f
  $ hg commit -Am "revision 2"
  created new head
  $ hg update 0 > /dev/null

revision 3 - simple to merge

  $ echo "revision 3" >> f
  $ hg commit -Am "revision 3"
  created new head

revision 4 - hard to merge

  $ hg update 0 > /dev/null
  $ echo "revision 4" > f

Tool selection

default is internal merge:

  [merge-tools]
  # hg update -C 1

hg merge -r 2
override $PATH to ensure hgmerge not visible; use $PYTHON in case we're
running from a devel copy, not a temp installation

  $ PATH="$BINDIR:/usr/sbin" $PYTHON "$BINDIR"/hg merge -r 2
  merging f
  warning: conflicts while merging f! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 1 files unresolved
  use 'hg resolve' to retry unresolved file merges or 'hg update -C .' to abandon

Merge with "echo mergeresult > $local":

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=echo --config merge-tools.true.args='mergeresult > $local'

  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  mergeresult
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

- and $local is the file f:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=echo --config merge-tools.true.args='mergeresult > f'
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  mergeresult
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

Merge with "echo mergeresult > $output" - the variable is a bit magic:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.executable=echo --config merge-tools.true.args='mergeresult > $output'
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ aftermerge
  # cat f
  mergeresult
  # hg stat
  M f
  # hg resolve --list
  R f

Merge using tool with a path that must be quoted:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ cat <<EOF > 'my merge tool'
  > cat "\$1" "\$2" "\$3" > "\$4"
  > EOF
  $ hg --config merge-tools.true.executable='sh' \
  >    --config merge-tools.true.args='"./my merge tool" $base $local $other $output' \
  >    merge -r 2
  merging f
  0 files updated, 1 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ rm -f 'my merge tool'
  $ aftermerge

Merge post-processing

cat is a bad merge-tool and doesn't change:

  $ beforemerge
  [merge-tools]
  false.whatever=
  true.priority=1
  true.executable=cat
  # hg update -C 1
  $ hg merge -y -r 2 --config merge-tools.true.checkchanged=1
  merging f
  revision 1
  space
  revision 0
  space
  revision 2
  space
   output file f appears unchanged
  was merge successful (yn)? n
  merging f failed!
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 1 files unresolved
  use 'hg resolve' to retry unresolved file merges or 'hg update -C .' to abandon

  $ aftermerge
  # cat f

  space
  # hg stat
  M f
  ? f.orig
  # hg resolve --list
  U f

#if symlink

internal merge cannot handle symlinks and shouldn't try:

  $ hg update -q -C 1
  $ rm f
  $ ln -s symlink f
  $ hg commit -qm 'f is symlink'
  $ hg merge -r 2 --tool internal:merge
  merging f
  warning: internal :merge cannot merge symlinks for f
  warning: conflicts while merging f! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark')
