mq: document repo.mq.qparents
The function is not very complex but writing this doc helped me to check if
I got everything right.
mq: use the new checklocalchange in the strip command
The strip command never use the `refresh` argument. So we can use the function
we just extracted.
mq: extract checklocalchanges from `mq.queue`
The core part of `checklocalchanges` is now mq independent. We can extract it in
a standalone function to help the extraction of `strip` as discussed in
issue3824.
A `checklocalchanges` function stay in `mq.queue` with the part related to
"refresh first" messages.
mq: extract checksubstate from the queue class
This function does not need any of the the `mq.queue` method or attributes. It
is indirectly used by the `strip` command. We are trying to extract this command
in a standalone extension as discussed in issue
issue3824.
mq: simplifies the refresh hint in checklocalchanges
The `checklocalchanges` function in the `mq.queue` class takes a `refresh` argument that
changes the error message of raised exception. When refresh is
`True` the exception message is "local changes found, refresh first" otherwise,
the message is just "local changes found".
This changeset is the first of a series that extract `strip` into a standalone
extension (as discussed in
issue3824). This `checklocalchanges` function is
indirectly used by the strip command. But in a standalone strip extension the
concept of "refresh first" has no sense. In practice, When used in the context
of the strip commands `refresh`'s value is always `False`.
So my final goal is a be able to extract the `checklocalchanges` logic in a
standalone extension but to keep the part related to "refresh first" in the mq
extension. However the refresh handling is deeply entangled into the
`checklocalchanges` code. It is handled as low a possible at the point we raise
the exception.
So we moves handling of refresh upper in the `checklocalchanges` code. This will
allow the extraction of a simple version in the strip extension while mq can
still inject its logic when needed.
Two helper functions `localchangesfound` and `localchangedsubreposfound` died in
the process they are replaced by simple raise lines.
merge: let the user choose to merge, keep local or keep remote subrepo revisions
When a subrepo has changed on the local and remote revisions, prompt the user
whether it wants to merge those subrepo revisions, keep the local revision or
keep the remote revision.
Up until now mercurial would always perform a merge on a subrepo that had
changed on the local and the remote revisions. This is often inconvenient. For
example:
- You may want to perform the actual subrepo merge after you have merged the
parent subrepo files.
- Some subrepos may be considered "read only", in the sense that you are not
supposed to add new revisions to them. In those cases "merging a subrepo" means
choosing which _existing_ revision you want to use on the merged revision. This
is often the case for subrepos that contain binary dependencies (such as DLLs,
etc).
This new prompt makes mercurial better cope with those common scenarios.
Notes:
- The default behavior (which is the one that is used when ui is not
interactive) remains unchanged (i.e. merge is the default action).
- This prompt will be shown even if the ui --tool flag is set.
- I don't know of a way to test the "keep local" and "keep remote" options (i.e.
to force the test to choose those options).
