Mon, 05 Mar 2018 00:02:13 -0500 merge: return an attrs class from update() and applyupdates()
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Mon, 05 Mar 2018 00:02:13 -0500] rev 37107
merge: return an attrs class from update() and applyupdates() Previously, we returned a tuple containing counts. The result of an update is kind of complex and the use of tuples with nameless fields made the code a bit harder to read and constrained future expansion of the return value. Let's invent an attrs-defined class for representing the result of an update operation. We provide __getitem__ and __len__ implementations for backwards compatibility as a container type to minimize code churn. In (at least) Python 2, the % operator seems to insist on using tuples. So we had to update a consumer using the % operator. .. api:: merge.update() and merge.applyupdates() now return a class with named attributes instead of a tuple. Switch consumers to access elements by name instead of by offset. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2692

Matt Harbison <matt_harbison@yahoo.com> [Sat, 24 Mar 2018 01:30:50 -0400] rev 37101
context: skip path conflicts by default when clearing unknown file (issue5776) Prior to adding path conflict checking in 989e884d1be9, the test-audit-path.t tests failed as shown here (but it was globbed away). 989e884d1be9 made it fail with a message about the destination manifest containing a conflict (though the no-symlink case wasn't updated). When the path conflict checking was gated behind an experimental config in 2a774cae3a03^::2a774cae3a03, the update started erroneously succeeding here. It turns out that the child of 989e884d1be9 is the origin of this change when path conflict checking is disabled, as shown by grafting the experimental config range on top of it. What's happening here is merge.batchget() is writing the symlink 'back' to wdir (but as a regular file for the no-symlink case), and then tries to write 'back/test', but calls wctx['back/test'].clearunknown() first. The code that's gated here was removing the newly written 'back' file, allowing 'back/test' to succeed. I tried checking for the dir components of 'back/test' in dirstate, and skipping removal if present. But that didn't work because the dirstate isn't updated after each file is written out. This is the last persistent test failure on Windows, so the testbot should start turning green now. \o/

The test was passing in 'a\b', which was getting normalized to 'A\B', which isn't in dirstate. (The filesystem path is all lowercase anyway.) This isn't the only case of calling dirstate.normalize(), but other methods here (util.finddirs()) seem to assume the input paths are already using '/'. I think the backslash comes from wvfs.reljoin() (in this case), but could also come from wvfs.walk(), so this is the only case that needs it.

Wed, 21 Mar 2018 12:36:29 -0700 filemerge: make the 'local' path match the format that 'base' and 'other' use
Kyle Lippincott <spectral@google.com> [Wed, 21 Mar 2018 12:36:29 -0700] rev 37077
filemerge: make the 'local' path match the format that 'base' and 'other' use If we pass a separate '$output' arg to the merge tool, we produce four files: local, base, other, and output. In this situation, 'output' will be the original filename, 'base' and 'other' are temporary files, and previously 'local' would be the backup file (so if 'output' was foo.txt, 'local' would be foo.txt.orig). This change makes it so that 'local' follows the same pattern as 'base' and 'other' - it will be a temporary file either in the `experimental.mergetempdirprefix`-controlled directory with a name like foo~local.txt, or in the normal system-wide temp dir with a name like foo~local.RaNd0m.txt. For the cases where the merge tool does not use an '$output' arg, 'local' is still the destination filename, and 'base' and 'other' are unchanged. The hope is that this is much easier for people to reason about; rather than having a tool like Meld pop up with three panes, one of them with the filename "foo.txt.orig", one with the filename "foo.txt", and one with "foo~other.StuFf2.txt", we can (when the merge temp dir stuff is enabled) make it show up as "foo~local.txt", "foo.txt" and "foo~other.txt", respectively. This also opens the door to future customization, such as getting the operation-provided labels and a hash prefix into the filenames (so we see something like "foo~dest.abc123", "foo.txt", and "foo~src.d4e5f6").

Now templatekw._showlist() is a compatibility wrapper for _showcompatlist(), and will be deprecated soon.

wireproto: define human output side channel frame Currently, the SSH protocol delivers output tailored for people over the stderr file descriptor. The HTTP protocol doesn't have this file descriptor (because it only has an input and output pipe). So it encodes textual output intended for humans within the protocol responses. So response types have a facility for capturing output to be printed to users. Some don't. And sometimes the implementation of how that output is conveyed is super hacky. On top of that, bundle2 has an "output" part that is used to store output that should be printed when this part is encountered. bundle2 also has the concept of "interrupt" chunks, which can be used to signal that the regular bundle2 stream is to be preempted by an out-of-band part that should be processed immediately. This "interrupt" part can be an "output" part and can be used to print data on the receiver. The status quo is inconsistent and insane. We can do better. This commit introduces a dedicated frame type on the frame-based protocol for denoting textual data that should be printed on the receiver. This frame type effectively constitutes a side-channel by which textual data can be printed on the receiver without interfering with other in-progress transmissions, such as the transmission of command responses. But wait - there's more! Previous implementations that transferred textual data basically instructed the client to "print these bytes." This suffered from a few problems. First, the text data that was transmitted and eventually printed originated from a server with a specic i18n configuration. This meant that clients would see text using whatever the i18n settings were on the server. Someone in France could connect to a server in Japan and see unlegible Japanese glyphs - or maybe even mojibake. Second, the normalization of all text data originated on servers resulted in the loss of the ability to apply formatting to that data. Local Mercurial clients can apply specific formatting settings to individual atoms of text. For example, a revision can be colored differently from a commit message. With data over the wire, the potential for this rich formatting was lost. The best you could do (without parsing the text to be printed), was apply a universal label to it and e.g. color it specially. The new mechanism for instructing the peer to print data does not have these limitations. Frames instructing the peer to print text are composed of a formatting string plus arguments. In other words, receivers can plug the formatting string into the i18n database to see if a local translation is available. In addition, each atom being instructed to print has a series of "labels" associated with it. These labels can be mapped to the Mercurial UI's labels so locally configured coloring, styling, etc settings can be applied. What this all means is that textual messages originating on servers can be localized on the client and richly formatted, all while respecting the client's settings. This is slightly more complicated than "print these bytes." But it is vastly more user friendly. FWIW, I'm not aware of other protocols that attempt to encode i18n and textual styling in this manner. You could lobby the claim that this feature is over-engineered. However, if I were to sit in the shoes of a non-English speaker learning how to use version control, I think I would *love* this feature because it would enable me to see richly formatted text in my chosen locale. Anyway, we only implement support for encoding frames of this type and basic tests for that encoding. We'll still need to hook up the server and its ui instance to emit these frames. I recognize this feature may be a bit more controversial than other aspects of the wire protocol because it is a bit "radical." So I'd figured I'd start small to test the waters and see if others feel this feature is worthwhile. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2872
