internals: document revlog format
It seems like a good idea to document the revlog format.
There is a lot more that could be added to this documentation.
But you have to start somewhere.
$ hg init
$ touch a
$ unset HGUSER
$ echo "[ui]" >> .hg/hgrc
$ echo "username= foo" >> .hg/hgrc
$ echo " bar1" >> .hg/hgrc
$ hg ci -Am m
adding a
abort: username 'foo\nbar1' contains a newline
[255]
$ rm .hg/hgrc
$ HGUSER=`(echo foo; echo bar2)` hg ci -Am m
abort: username 'foo\nbar2' contains a newline
[255]
$ hg ci -Am m -u "`(echo foo; echo bar3)`"
transaction abort!
rollback completed
abort: username 'foo\nbar3' contains a newline!
