tests: reorder hg serve commands chg currently does not support hg serve -d. It has a quick path testing if the command is hg serve -d and fallbacks to hg if so. But the test only works if "serve" is the first argument since the test wants to avoid false positives (for example, "-r serve" is different). This patch reorders "hg server" commands in tests, making them chg friendly.

templater: add debugtemplate command This is useful for debugging template parsing. Several tests are ported to this command.

templater: expand list of parsed templates to template node This patch eliminates a nested data structure other than the parsed tree. ('template', [(op, data), ..]) -> ('template', (op, data), ..) New expanded tree can be processed by common parser functions. This change will help implementing template aliases. Because a (template ..) node should have at least one child node, an empty template (template []) is mapped to (string ''). Also a trivial string (template [(string ..)]) node is unwrapped to (string ..) at parsing phase, instead of compiling phase.

templater: relax type of mapped template Now compiled template fragments are packed into a generic type, (func, data), a string can be a valid template. This change allows us to unwrap a trivial string node. See the next patch for details.

templater: lift parsed and compiled templates to generic data types Before this patch, parsed and compiled templates were kept as lists. That was inconvenient for applying transformation such as alias expansion. This patch changes the types of the outermost objects as follows: stage old new -------- -------------- ------------------------------ parsed [(op, ..)] ('template', [(op, ..)]) compiled [(func, data)] (runtemplate, [(func, data)]) New templater.parse() function has the same signature as revset.parse() and fileset.parse().

tests: python executable path should always be globbed Although this is coming in under the guise of consistency, part of the desire for this is that at least as part of the official Solaris builds, we build with a versioned python interpreter, such as "python2.7", which doesn't match "*python".

crecord: use ui.interface to choose curses interface use ui.interface to select curses mode, instead of experimental.crecord

ui: add new config flag for interface selection This patch introduces a new config flag ui.interface to select the interface for interactive commands. It currently only applies to chunks selection. The config can be overridden on a per feature basis with the flag ui.interface.<feature>. features for the moment can only be 'chunkselector', moving forward we expect to have 'histedit' and other commands there. If an incorrect value is given to ui.interface we print a warning and use the default interface: text. If HGPLAIN is specified we also use the default interface: text. Note that we fail quickly if a feature does not handle all the interfaces that we permit in ui.interface; in future, we could design a fallback path (e.g. blackpearl to curses, curses to text), but let's leave that until we need it.

extensions: also search for extension in the 'hgext3rd' package Mercurial extensions are not meant to be normal python package/module. Yet the lack of an official location to install them means that a lot of them actually install as root level python package, polluting the global Python package namespace and risking collision with more legit packages. As we recently discovered, core python actually support namespace package. A way for multiples distinct "distribution" to share a common top level package without fear of installation headache. (Namespace package allow submodule installed in different location (of the 'sys.path') to be imported properly. So we are fine as long as extension includes a proper 'hgext3rd.__init__.py' to declare the namespace package.) Therefore we introduce a 'hgext3rd' namespace packages and search for extension in it. We'll then recommend third extensions to install themselves in it. Strictly speaking we could just get third party extensions to install in 'hgext' as it is also a namespace package. However, this would make the integration of formerly third party extensions in the main distribution more complicated as the third party install would overwrite the file from the main install. Moreover, having an explicit split between third party and core extensions seems like a good idea. The name 'hgext3rd' have been picked because it is short and seems explicit enough. Other alternative I could think of where: - hgextcontrib - hgextother - hgextunofficial

hgext: use templatekeyword to mark a function as template keyword This patch replaces registration of template keyword function in bundled extensions by registrar.templatekeyword decorator all at once.

templatekw: use templatekeyword to mark a function as template keyword Using decorator can localize changes for adding (or removing) a template keyword function in source code. This patch also removes leading ":KEYWORD:" part in help document of each keywords, because using templatekeyword makes it useless. For similarity to decorator introduced by subsequent patches, this patch uses 'templatekeyword' instead of 'keyword' as a decorator name, even though the former is a little redundant in 'templatekw.py'. file name reason =================== ================= ================================== templatekw.py templatekeyword for similarity to others templatefilters.py templatefilter 'filter' hides Python built-in one templaters.py templatefunc 'func' is too generic

registrar: add templatekeyword to mark a function as template keyword (API) _templateregistrarbase is defined as a super class of templatekeyword, for ease of adding template common features between "keyword", "filter" and "function". This patch also adds loadkeyword() to templatekw, because this combination helps to figure out how they cooperate with each other. Listing up loadkeyword() in dispatch.extraloaders causes implicit loading template keyword functions at loading (3rd party) extension. This change requires that "templatekeyword" attribute of (3rd party) extension is registrar.templatekeyword or so.

chgserver: do not keep repo object The current chgserver design is to use one server to handle multiple repos which has same [extensions] config. Previously the client uses --cwd / to avoid creating a repo object. Now we need to set repo to None before we have code to make "serve" command norepo when it's chg.

chgserver: invalidate the server if extensions fail to load Previously, if extensions fail to load, chg server will just keep working without those extensions. It will print a warning message but only if a new server starts. This patch invalidates the server if any extension failed to load, but still serve the client (hopefully just) once. It will help chg pass some test cases of test-bad-extension.t.
