commands: remove suggestion to clone via `cp -al` This was added in 2df98f616645 in 2006. This may be possible but it seems like a bad idea to even suggest it. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D863

hgweb: add HTML elements to control whitespace settings for annotate Building on top of the new URL query string arguments to control whitespace settings for annotate, this commit adds HTML checkboxes reflecting the values of these arguments to the paper and gitweb themes. The actual diff settings are now exported to the templating layer. The HTML templates add these as data-* attributes so they are accessible to the DOM. A new <form> with various <input> elements is added. The <form> is initially hidden via CSS. A shared JavaScript function (which runs after the <form> has been rendered but before the annotate HTML (because annotate HTML could take a while to load and we want the form to render quickly) takes care of setting the checked state of each box from the data-* attributes. It also registers an event handler to modify the URL and refresh the page whenever the checkbox state is changed. I'm using the URLSearchParams interface to perform URL manipulation. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URLSearchParams tells me this may not be supported on older web browsers. Yes, apparently the web API didn't have a standard API to parse and format query strings until recently. Hence the check for the presence of this feature in the JavaScript. If the browser doesn't support the feature, the <form> will remain hidden and behavior will like it currently is. We could polyfill this feature or implement our own query string parsing. But I'm lazy and this could be done as a follow-up if people miss it. We could certainly expand this feature to support more diff options (such as lines of context). That's why the potentially reusable code is stored in a reusable place. It is also certainly possible to add diff controls to other pages that display diffs. But since Mozillians are making noise about controlling which revisions annotate shows, I figured I'd start there. .. feature:: Control whitespace settings for annotation on hgweb /annotate URLs on hgweb now accept query string arguments to influence how whitespace changes impact results. The arguments "ignorews," "ignorewsamount," "ignorewseol," and "ignoreblanklines" now have the same meaning as their [annotate] config section counterparts. Any provided setting overrides the server default. HTML checkboxes have been added to the paper and gitweb themes to expose current whitespace settings and to easily modify the current view.

hgweb: query string arguments to control whitespace for annotate This feature should hopefully be pretty straightforward. We simply examine some query string arguments to feed into the diff options. The function to obtain the diff options has been factored into its own generic function to facilitate an upcoming change to the HTML interface and to enable diff settings to be controlled via the same query string arguments on other web commands. The test output for "ignoreblanklines" didn't change. I'm not sure why. Our test coverage for --ignore-blank-lines isn't great and I can't figure out how to make this diff setting do anything meaningful. On a very brief examination of the code, it is possible the setting doesn't work because it is operating at the line level and blank lines detection needs to examine multiple lines. But I'm not an expert in this code, so I'm not sure. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D849

obsolete: clean createmarkers part about operation I will add another experiment in createmarkers, add a comment and some blank lines for aesthetic sake. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D532

treediscovery: update test expectation I'm not sure why this needs an update, but the test passes for me both pure and non-pure. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D860

tests: update some clonebundles expectations to pass on both pure and non-pure Specifically, zstd isn't available in --pure mode, and we need to glob off the leading comma as well as the absent compression engine. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D859
