# User Dan Villiom Podlaski Christiansen <danchr@gmail.com> # Date 1289564504 -3600 # Node ID b75264c15cc888cf38c3c7b8f619801e3c2589c7 # Parent 89b2e5d940f669e590096c6be70eee61c9172fff revsets: overload the branch() revset to also take a branch name. This should only change semantics in the specific case of a tag/branch conflict where the tag wasn't done on the branch with the same name. Previously, branch(whatever) would resolve to the branch of the tag in that case, whereas now it will resolve to the branch of the name. The previous behaviour, while documented, seemed very counter-intuitive to me. An alternate approach would be to introduce a new revset such as branchname() or namedbranch(). While this would retain backwards compatibility, the distinction between it and branch() would not be readily apparent to users. The most intuitive behaviour would be to have branch(x) require 'x' to be a branch name, and something like branchof(x) or samebranch(x) do what branch(x) currently does. Unfortunately, our backwards compatibility guarantees prevent us from doing that. Please note that while 'hg tag' guards against shadowing a branch, 'hg branch' does not. Besides, even if it did, that wouldn't solve the issue of conversions with such tags and branches...

# for background

# takes a tokenizer and elements
# tokenizer is an iterator that returns type, value pairs
# elements is a mapping of types to binding strength, prefix and infix actions
# an action is a tree node name, a tree label, and an optional match
# __call__(program) parses program into a labelled tree
