dockerrpm: run docker build process as the current user, not as root Docker can be run by ordinary users if they are in the docker group. The build process would however be run as a root user, only protected by the sandboxing. That caused problems with the shared directory where rpmbuild would be picky about building from sources owned by less privileged users and producing files owned by root. Instead, add a build user with the right uid/gid to the image and run the docker process as that user.

dockerrpm: better handling of specification of docker name

dockerrpm: check that docker is running correctly before building

buildrpm: introduce --rpmdir instead of using hardcoded rpmbuild dir Used as rpm _topdir when preparing spec and source and building rpms.

buildrpm: introduce --withpython for building rpms that includes Python 2.7

buildrpm: introduce --prepare for preparing without actually building rpms

templater: add "diff" template function "diff" allows to embed changes in the target revision into template output, even if the command itself doesn't take "--patch" option Combination of "[committemplate]" configuration and "diff" template function can achieve the feature like issue231 ("option to have diff displayed in commit editor buffer") http://bz.selenic.com/show_bug.cgi?id=231 For example, templating below can be used to add each "diff" output lines "HG: " prefix:: {splitlines(diff) % 'HG: {line}\n'} This patch implements "diff" not as "a template keyword" but as "a template function" to take include/exclude patterns at runtime. It allows to specify target files of command (by -I/-X command line options) and "diff" separately.
