test-module-imports: try and detect virtualenv breakage (issue4129) virtualenvs (among other things) break the stdlib module detection in the import checker, and I don't see a good way to work around that for now.

http: reuse authentication info after the first failed request (issue3567) Context: mercurial access to repository server with http access, and this server is protected by basic auth. Before patch: * mercurial try an anonymous access to server, server return 401 response and mercurial resend request with login / password information After patch: * mercurial try an anonymous access to server, server return 401 response. For all subsequent requests, mercurial keep in memory this information (this server need basic auth information). This patch reduce the number of http access against mercurial server.

record: --user/-u now works with record when ui.username not set (issue3857) The -u flag didn't work when ui.username was not set and resulted in an abort message. This was fixed by checking for the 'user' key in the opts dictionary. If the key is present, the step causing the exception is not executed.

parsers: clarify documentation of test-parseindex2.py This change updates and improves the description of test-parseindex2.py. In particular, it removes language that can be interpreted to mean that the test module checks only the C implementation of parsers.parse_index2(). Rather, the module checks parsers.parse_index2(), which can be either the C or pure Python implementation, depending on which version is being used. As of e57c532c3835, the module also does more than just compare the return value with the original Python implementation.

parsers: fail fast if Python has wrong minor version (issue4110) This change causes an informative ImportError to be raised when importing the extension module parsers if the minor version of the currently-running Python interpreter doesn't match that of the Python that was used when compiling the extension module. Here is an example of what the new error looks like: Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 1, in <module> import mercurial.parsers ImportError: Python minor version mismatch: The Mercurial extension modules were compiled with Python 2.7.6, but Mercurial is currently using Python with sys.hexversion=33883888: Python 2.5.6 (r256:88840, Nov 18 2012, 05:37:10) [GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple Clang 4.1 ((tags/Apple/clang-421.11.66))] at: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Resources/ Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python The reason for raising an error in this scenario is that Python's C API is known not to be compatible from minor version to minor version, even if sys.api_version is the same. See for example this Python bug report about incompatibilities between 2.5 and 2.6+: http://bugs.python.org/issue8118 These incompatibilities can cause Mercurial to break in mysterious, unforeseen ways. For example, when Mercurial compiled with Python 2.7 was run with 2.5, the following crash occurred when running "hg status": http://bz.selenic.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4110 After this crash was fixed, running with Python 2.5 no longer crashes, but the following puzzling behavior still occurs: $ hg status ... File ".../mercurial/changelog.py", line 123, in __init__ revlog.revlog.__init__(self, opener, "00changelog.i") File ".../mercurial/revlog.py", line 251, in __init__ d = self._io.parseindex(i, self._inline) File ".../mercurial/revlog.py", line 158, in parseindex index, cache = parsers.parse_index2(data, inline) TypeError: data is not a string which can be reproduced more simply with: import mercurial.parsers as parsers parsers.parse_index2("", True) Both the crash and the TypeError occurred because the Python C API's PyString_Check returns the wrong value when the C header files from Python 2.7 are run with Python 2.5. This is an example of an incompatibility of the sort mentioned in the Python bug report above. Failing fast with an informative error message will result in a better user experience in cases like the above. The information in the ImportError will also simplify troubleshooting for those on Mercurial mailing lists, the bug tracker, etc. This patch only adds the version check to parsers.c, which is sufficient to affect command-line commands like "hg status" and "hg summary". An idea for a future improvement is to move the version-checking C code to a more central location, and have it run when importing all Mercurial extension modules and not just parsers.c.

hgk: fix tag list parser (issue4101) As tags may have embedded spaces, and "hg tags" command doesn't escape them, the output of the command doesn't make a well-formed list, so we can't just iterate over it. Instead, apply a simple regexp to transform it to a list which we actually use. Line boundary matching should be enabled.

i18n: add the tool to check Mercurial specific translation problems in *.po Existing tool like "msgfmt --check" can check typical translation problems (missing "%s" in msgstr, for example), but can't check Mercurial specific ones. For example, "msgfmt --check" can't check whether the translated string given to "ui.promptchoice()" is correct or not, even though problems like below cause run-time error or unexpected behavior: - less or more choices than msgid, - choices without '&', or - choices with '&' followed by none This patch adds the tool to check Mercurial specific translation problems in *.po files.

unshelve: add tests for unknown files Adds a basic test for shelving/unshelving with an unknown file present. Adds a test for unshelving on top of an existing unknown file.

unshelve: don't commit unknown files during unshelve (issue4113) Previously, unshelve would temporarily commit unknown files (via addremove) in an attempt to allow unshelving into unknown files. This produced unexpected results, like the file time stamp changing and a .i file being created. This change makes it no longer use addremove. It ignores unknown files completely. If an unshelve would overwrite an unknown file, the unknown file is moved to *.orig The shelve continue/abort format is changed, but it just removes stuff from the end of the file, so it can still read the old format.
