tarball support v0.3
Hello,
I'm slowly improving support for tarballs in Mercurial. Attached patch
is made against current tip in Matt's repository - f859e9cba1b9, and
contains everything done so far.
Changes:
- gzip and bzip2 tarballs are sent immediately without writing to
temporary files (I was wrong Matt, it can be done very easy)
- hgrc customization, you can choose which type (if any) you will support
There's no easy way to support compression levels, since TarFile open()
assume that it is 9. I tried to use gzopen(), and bz2open() methods
instead, but it seems that headers of generated archives, are missing or
wrong. We could eventually try to rewrite tarfile.py and include our own
version into Mercurial, but I don't know if it's good idea...

Mercurial's documentation is currently kept in ASCIIDOC format, which is a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit. It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard UNIX man page format and HTML. To do this, you'll need to install ASCIIDOC: http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/ To generate the man page: asciidoc -d manpage -b docbook hg.1.txt xmlto man hg.1.xml To display: groff -mandoc -Tascii hg.1 | more To create the html page (without stylesheets): asciidoc -b html hg.1.txt
