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...

A simple testing framework To run the tests, do: cd tests/ ./run-tests This finds all scripts in the test directory named test-* and executes them. The scripts can be either shell scripts or Python. Each test is run in a temporary directory that is removed when the test is complete. A test-<x> succeeds if the script returns success and its output matches test-<x>.out. If the new output doesn't match, it is stored in test-<x>.err. There are some tricky points here that you should be aware of when writing tests: - hg commit and hg up -m want user interaction for commit use -m "text" for hg up -m, set HGMERGE to something noninteractive (like true or merge) - changeset hashes will change based on user and date which make things like hg history output change use commit -m "test" -u test -d "0 0" - diff will show the current time use hg diff | sed "s/\(\(---\|+++\) [a-zA-Z0-9_/.-]*\).*/\1/" to strip dates
