subrepo: drop the 'ui' parameter to revert() This no longer needs to be explicitly passed because the subrepo object tracks the 'ui' reference since fcbc66b5da6a. See the change to 'archive' for details about the differences between the output level in the root repo and subrepo 'ui' object. The only use for 'ui' in revert is to emit status and warning messages, and to check the verbose flag prior to printing the action to be performed on a file. The local repo's ui was already being used to print a warning message in wctx.forget() and for 'ui.slash' when walking dirstate in the repo.status() call. Unlike other methods where the matcher is passed along and narrowed, a new matcher is created in each repo, and therefore the bad() method already used the local repo's ui.

subrepo: drop the 'ui' parameter to removefiles() This no longer needs to be explicitly passed because the subrepo object tracks the 'ui' reference since fcbc66b5da6a. See the change to 'archive' for details about the differences between the output level in the root repo and subrepo 'ui' object. The only use for 'ui' in remove is to emit status and warning messages, and to check the verbose flag prior to printing files to be removed. The bad() method on the matcher still uses the root repo's ui, because narrowing the matcher doesn't change the ui object. The local repo's ui was already being used to print a warning message in wctx.forget() and for 'ui.slash' when walking dirstate in the repo.status() call.

subrepo: drop the 'ui' parameter to forget() This no longer needs to be explicitly passed because the subrepo object tracks the 'ui' reference since fcbc66b5da6a. See the change to 'archive' for details about the differences between the output level in the root repo and subrepo 'ui' object. The only use for 'ui' in forget is to emit status and warning messages, and to check the verbose flag prior to printing files to be forgotten. The bad() method on the matcher still uses the root repo's ui, because narrowing the matcher doesn't change the ui object. The local repo's ui was already being used to print a warning message in wctx.forget() and for 'ui.slash' when walking dirstate in the repo.status() call.

subrepo: drop the 'ui' parameter to cat() This no longer needs to be explicitly passed because the subrepo object tracks a 'ui' reference since fcbc66b5da6a. See the change to 'archive' for details about the differences between the output level in the root repo and subrepo 'ui' object. The only use for 'ui' in cat is to emit a status message when a subrepo is missing. The bad() method on the matcher still uses the root repo's ui, because narrowing the matcher doesn't change the ui object.

subrepo: drop the 'ui' parameter to archive() The current state of subrepo methods is to pass a 'ui' object to some methods, which has the effect of overriding the subrepo configuration since it is the root repo's 'ui' that is passed along as deep as there are subrepos. Other subrepo method are *not* passed the root 'ui', and instead delegate to their repo object's 'ui'. Even in the former case where the root 'ui' is available, some methods are inconsistent in their use of both the root 'ui' and the local repo's 'ui'. (Consider hg._incoming() uses the root 'ui' for path expansion and some status messages, but also calls bundlerepo.getremotechanges(), which eventually calls discovery.findcommonincoming(), which calls setdiscovery.findcommonheads(), which calls status() on the local repo 'ui'.) This inconsistency with respect to the configured output level is probably always hidden, because --verbose, --debug and --quiet, along with their 'ui.xxx' equivalents in the global and user level hgrc files are propagated from the parent repo to the subrepo via 'baseui'. The 'ui.xxx' settings in the parent repo hgrc file are not propagated, but that seems like an unusual thing to set on a per repo config file. Any 'ui.xxx' options changed by --config are also not propagated, because they are set on repo.ui by dispatch.py, not repo.baseui. The goal here is to cleanup the subrepo methods by dropping the 'ui' parameter, which in turn prevents mixing subtly different 'ui' instances on a given subrepo level. Some methods use more than just the output level settings in 'ui' (add for example ends up calling scmutil.checkportabilityalert() with both the root and local repo's 'ui' at different points). This series just goes for the low hanging fruit and switches methods that only use the output level. If we really care about not letting a subrepo config override the root repo's output level, we can propagate the verbose, debug and quiet settings to the subrepo in the same way 'ui.commitsubrepos' is in hgsubrepo.__init__. Archive only uses the 'ui' object to call its progress() method, and gitsubrepo calls status().
