scmutil: add function to help handling workingctx in arithmetic operation
It's unfortunate that workingctx revision is None, which doesn't work well in
arithmetic operation or comparison. This function is trivial but will be used
in several places.
Create a repository:
$ hg config
defaults.backout=-d "0 0"
defaults.commit=-d "0 0"
defaults.shelve=--date "0 0"
defaults.tag=-d "0 0"
largefiles.usercache=$TESTTMP/.cache/largefiles (glob)
ui.slash=True
ui.interactive=False
ui.mergemarkers=detailed
ui.promptecho=True
$ hg init t
$ cd t
Make a changeset:
$ echo a > a
$ hg add a
$ hg commit -m test
This command is ancient:
$ hg history
changeset: 0:acb14030fe0a
tag: tip
user: test
date: Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000
summary: test
Verify that updating to revision 0 via commands.update() works properly
$ cat <<EOF > update_to_rev0.py
> from mercurial import ui, hg, commands
> myui = ui.ui()
> repo = hg.repository(myui, path='.')
> commands.update(myui, repo, rev=0)
> EOF
$ hg up null
0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ python ./update_to_rev0.py
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ hg identify -n
0
Poke around at hashes:
$ hg manifest --debug
b789fdd96dc2f3bd229c1dd8eedf0fc60e2b68e3 644 a
$ hg cat a
a
Verify should succeed:
$ hg verify

At the end...
$ cd ..
