templatekw: add a {negrev} keyword Revision numbers are getting much maligned for two reasons: they are too long in large repos and users get confused by their local-only nature. It just occurred to me that negative revision numbers avoid both of those problems. Since negative revision numbers change whenever the repo changes, it's much more obvious that they are a local-only convenience. Additionally, for the recent commits that we usually care about the most, negative revision numbers are always near zero. This commit adds a negrev templatekw to more easily expose negative revision numbers. It's not easy to reliably produce this output with existing keywords due to hidden commits while at the same time ensuring good performance.

No arguments shows available views

  $ hg init empty
  $ cd empty
  $ hg show
  available views:
  
  bookmarks -- bookmarks and their associated changeset
  stack -- current line of work
  work -- changesets that aren't finished
  
  abort: no view requested
  (use "hg show VIEW" to choose a view)
  [255]

`hg help show` prints available views

  $ hg help show
  hg show VIEW
  
  show various repository information
  
      A requested view of repository data is displayed.
  
      If no view is requested, the list of available views is shown and the
      command aborts.
  
      Note:
         There are no backwards compatibility guarantees for the output of this
         command. Output may change in any future Mercurial release.
  
         Consumers wanting stable command output should specify a template via
         "-T/--template".
  
      List of available views:
  
      bookmarks   bookmarks and their associated changeset
  
      stack       current line of work
  
      work        changesets that aren't finished
  
  (use 'hg help -e show' to show help for the show extension)
  
  options:
  
   -T --template TEMPLATE display with template
  
  (some details hidden, use --verbose to show complete help)

Unknown view prints error

  $ hg show badview
  abort: unknown view: badview
  (run "hg show" to see available views)
  [255]

HGPLAIN results in abort

  $ HGPLAIN=1 hg show bookmarks
  abort: must specify a template in plain mode
  (invoke with -T/--template to control output format)
  [255]

But not if a template is specified

  $ HGPLAIN=1 hg show bookmarks -T '{bookmark}\n'
  (no bookmarks set)

  $ cd ..

bookmarks view with no bookmarks prints empty message

  $ hg init books
  $ cd books
  $ touch f0
  $ hg -q commit -A -m initial

  $ hg show bookmarks
  (no bookmarks set)

bookmarks view shows bookmarks in an aligned table

  $ echo book1 > f0
  $ hg commit -m 'commit for book1'
  $ echo book2 > f0
  $ hg commit -m 'commit for book2'

  $ hg bookmark -r 1 book1
  $ hg bookmark a-longer-bookmark

  $ hg show bookmarks
  * a-longer-bookmark    7b57
    book1                b757

A custom bookmarks template works

  $ hg show bookmarks -T '{node} {bookmark} {active}\n'
  7b5709ab64cbc34da9b4367b64afff47f2c4ee83 a-longer-bookmark True
  b757f780b8ffd71267c6ccb32e0882d9d32a8cc0 book1 False

bookmarks JSON works

  $ hg show bookmarks -T json
  [
   {
    "active": true,
    "bookmark": "a-longer-bookmark",
    "longestbookmarklen": 17,
    "node": "7b5709ab64cbc34da9b4367b64afff47f2c4ee83",
    "nodelen": 4
   },
   {
    "active": false,
    "bookmark": "book1",
    "longestbookmarklen": 17,
    "node": "b757f780b8ffd71267c6ccb32e0882d9d32a8cc0",
    "nodelen": 4
   }
  ]

JSON works with no bookmarks

  $ hg book -d a-longer-bookmark
  $ hg book -d book1
  $ hg show bookmarks -T json
  [
  ]

commands.show.aliasprefix aliases values to `show <view>`

  $ hg --config commands.show.aliasprefix=s sbookmarks
  (no bookmarks set)

  $ hg --config commands.show.aliasprefix=sh shwork
  @  7b57 commit for book2
  o  b757 commit for book1
  o  ba59 initial

  $ hg --config commands.show.aliasprefix='s sh' swork
  @  7b57 commit for book2
  o  b757 commit for book1
  o  ba59 initial

  $ hg --config commands.show.aliasprefix='s sh' shwork
  @  7b57 commit for book2
  o  b757 commit for book1
  o  ba59 initial

The aliases don't appear in `hg config`

  $ hg --config commands.show.aliasprefix=s config alias

  $ hg --config alias.swork='log -r .' --config commands.show.aliasprefix=s swork
