tests: add timeouts, make run-tests.py clean up dead daemon processes
test timeout feature is needed for test with python 2.5 beta. if test
does not complete in time (30 seconds is default), it is killed.
some times daemon process used in test can be alive after the test
is killed by user or by timeout. tests now record daemon pids into
$DAEMON_PIDS and run-tests.py kills all living daemons after every test.
final little change is to add newline to end of pid file printed by
"hg serve", else "cat hg.pid >> $DAEMON_FILES" gives garbage.

MERCURIAL QUICK-START Setting up Mercurial: Note: some distributions fails to include bits of distutils by default, you'll need python-dev to install. You'll also need a C compiler and a 3-way merge tool like merge, tkdiff, or kdiff3. First, unpack the source: $ tar xvzf mercurial-<ver>.tar.gz $ cd mercurial-<ver> When installing, change python to python2.3 or python2.4 if 2.2 is the default on your system. To install system-wide: $ python setup.py install --force To install in your home directory (~/bin and ~/lib, actually), run: $ python setup.py install --home=${HOME} --force $ export PYTHONPATH=${HOME}/lib/python # (or lib64/ on some systems) $ export PATH=${HOME}/bin:$PATH # add these to your .bashrc And finally: $ hg # test installation, show help If you get complaints about missing modules, you probably haven't set PYTHONPATH correctly. Setting up a Mercurial project: $ hg init project # creates project directory $ cd project # copy files in, edit them $ hg add # add all unknown files $ hg remove --after # remove deleted files $ hg commit # commit all changes, edit changelog entry Mercurial will look for a file named .hgignore in the root of your repository which contains a set of regular expressions to ignore in file paths. Branching and merging: $ hg clone linux linux-work # create a new branch $ cd linux-work $ <make changes> $ hg commit $ cd ../linux $ hg pull ../linux-work # pull changesets from linux-work $ hg merge # merge the new tip from linux-work into # our working directory $ hg commit # commit the result of the merge Importing patches: Fast: $ patch < ../p/foo.patch $ hg commit -A Faster: $ patch < ../p/foo.patch $ hg commit `lsdiff -p1 ../p/foo.patch` Fastest: $ cat ../p/patchlist | xargs hg import -p1 -b ../p Exporting a patch: (make changes) $ hg commit $ hg tip 28237:747a537bd090880c29eae861df4d81b245aa0190 $ hg export 28237 > foo.patch # export changeset 28237 Network support: # pull from the primary Mercurial repo foo$ hg clone http://selenic.com/hg/ foo$ cd hg # export your current repo via HTTP with browsable interface foo$ hg serve -n "My repo" -p 80 # pushing changes to a remote repo with SSH foo$ hg push ssh://user@example.com/~/hg/ # merge changes from a remote machine bar$ hg pull http://foo/ bar$ hg merge # merge changes into your working directory # Set up a CGI server on your webserver foo$ cp hgweb.cgi ~/public_html/hg/index.cgi foo$ emacs ~/public_html/hg/index.cgi # adjust the defaults For more info: Documentation in doc/ Mercurial website at http://selenic.com/mercurial
