filemerge: make last line of prompts <40 english chars (
issue6158)
I've chosen <40 as the target so that other languages that may have a 2x blowup
in character count can still have a chance to fit into an 80 column screen.
Previously, we would show a prompt like:
```
keep (l)ocal [dest], take (o)ther [source], or leave (u)nresolved for some/potentially/really/long/path?
```
On at least some systems, if readline was in use then the last line of the
prompt would be wrapped strangely if it couldn't fit entirely on one line. This
strange wrapping may be just a carriage return without a line feed, overwriting
the beginning of the line; example (100 columns wide, 65 character filename, and
yes there's 10 spaces on the end, I assume this is to handle the user inputting
longest word we provide as an option, "unresolved"):
```
ng/dir/name/that/does/not/work/well/with/readline/file.txt? ave (u)nresolved for some/lon
```
In some cases it may partially wrap onto the next line, but still be missing
earlier parts in the line, such as below (60 columns wide, 65 character
filename):
```
rev], or leave (u)nresolved for some/long/dir/name/that/do
s/not/work/well/with/readline/file.txt?
```
With this fix, this looks like this on a 60 column screen:
```
tool vim_with_markers (for pattern some/long/dir/name/that/d
oes/not/work/well/with/readline/file.txt) can't handle binar
y
tool meld can't handle binary
tool vim_with_markers can't handle binary
tool internal:merge3 can't handle binary
tool merge can't handle binary
no tool found to merge some/long/dir/name/that/does/not/work
/well/with/readline/file.txt
file 'some/long/dir/name/that/does/not/work/well/with/readli
ne/file.txt' needs to be resolved.
You can keep (l)ocal [working copy], take (o)ther [merge rev
], or leave (u)nresolved.
What do you want to do?
```
Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D6562
Mercurial supports a functional language for selecting a set of
files.
Like other file patterns, this pattern type is indicated by a prefix,
'set:'. The language supports a number of predicates which are joined
by infix operators. Parenthesis can be used for grouping.
Identifiers such as filenames or patterns must be quoted with single
or double quotes if they contain characters outside of
``[.*{}[]?/\_a-zA-Z0-9\x80-\xff]`` or if they match one of the
predefined predicates. This generally applies to file patterns other
than globs and arguments for predicates. Pattern prefixes such as
``path:`` may be specified without quoting.
Special characters can be used in quoted identifiers by escaping them,
e.g., ``\n`` is interpreted as a newline. To prevent them from being
interpreted, strings can be prefixed with ``r``, e.g. ``r'...'``.
See also :hg:`help patterns`.
Operators
=========
There is a single prefix operator:
``not x``
Files not in x. Short form is ``! x``.
These are the supported infix operators:
``x and y``
The intersection of files in x and y. Short form is ``x & y``.
``x or y``
The union of files in x and y. There are two alternative short
forms: ``x | y`` and ``x + y``.
``x - y``
Files in x but not in y.
Predicates
==========
The following predicates are supported:
.. predicatesmarker
Examples
========
Some sample queries:
- Show status of files that appear to be binary in the working directory::
hg status -A "set:binary()"
- Forget files that are in .hgignore but are already tracked::
hg forget "set:hgignore() and not ignored()"
- Find text files that contain a string::
hg files "set:grep(magic) and not binary()"
- Find C files in a non-standard encoding::
hg files "set:**.c and not encoding('UTF-8')"
- Revert copies of large binary files::
hg revert "set:copied() and binary() and size('>1M')"
- Revert files that were added to the working directory::
hg revert "set:revs('wdir()', added())"
- Remove files listed in foo.lst that contain the letter a or b::
hg remove "set: listfile:foo.lst and (**a* or **b*)"
