http: explain why the host is passed to urllib2 password manager The original comment was in url.getauthinfo() and was lost in bf6156bab41b.

test-http: test http authentication The extension hack is based on Henrik Stuart's hg-textauth.

http: pass user to readauthforuri() (fix 4a43e23b8c55) urllib2 never handles URIs with credentials, we have to extract them and store them in the password manager before handing the stripped URI. Half of the changes deducing the username from the URI in 4a43e23b8c55 were incorrect. Instead, we retrieve the username from the password manager before passing to readauthforuri(). test-hgweb-auth.py was passing because the test itself was flawed: it was passing URIs with credentials to find_password(), which never happens.

http: strip credentials from urllib2 manager URIs (issue2885) urllib2 password manager does not strip credentials from URIs registered with add_password() and compare them with stripped URIs in find_password(). Remove credentials from URIs returned by util.url.authinfo(). It sometimes works when no port was specified as the URI host is registered too.

help: move option text display into a helper function

help: move 'additional help topics' code

help: rename option_lists to optlist

help: drop with_version If --version is specified, we print the version and exit (as documented).

dispatch: don't rewrap aliases that have the same definition Previously aliases that overrode existing commands would wrap the old alias on every call to dispatch() (twice actually), which is an obvious re-entrancy issue for things like the command server or TortoiseHG.

url: really handle urls of the form file:///c:/foo/bar/ correctly 28edd65000d9 made sure that paths that seemed to start with a windows drive letter would not get an extra leading slash. localpath should thus not try to handle this case by removing a leading slash, and this special handling is thus removed. (The localpath handling of this case was wrong anyway, because paths that look like they start with a windows drive letter can't have a leading slash.) A quick verification of this is to run 'hg id file:///c:/foo/bar/'.

wireproto: add out-of-band error class to allow remote repo to report errors Older clients will still print the provided error message and not much else: over ssh, this will be each line prefixed with 'remote: ' in addition to an "abort: unexpected response: '\n'"; over http, this will be the '---%<---' banners in addition to the 'does not appear to be a repository' message. Currently, clients with this patch will display 'abort: remote error:\n' and the provided error text, but it is trivial to style the error text however is deemed appropriate.

windows: fix pyflakes warning on unused imports This is ugly, but only marginally uglier than before, and it avoids hacking/disabling our pyflakes test

minirst: add decorateblocks search helper

minirst: add getsections helper

minirst: add formatblocks helper

minirst: add parse method to get document structure

util: move copymode into posix.py and windows.py reducing it to a NOP on Windows. This eliminates a pointless stat call on Windows and reduces the risk of interferring with other processes (e.g. AV-scanners, file change watchers). See also http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/UnlinkingFilesOnWindows, item 2d

util: factor new function copymode out of mktempcopy

revert: introduce short option -C for --no-backup Corresponds to -C of the update command. It's much more convenient to use: $ hg revert -aC than having to type $ hg revert -a --no-backup I think the 'no-backup' case is a frequent use case. Introducing short option -C here fits with the muscle memory we have from 'hg update -C', which is described there as "discard uncommitted changes (no backup)".

hgweb: do not ignore [auth] if url has a username (issue2822) The [auth] section was ignored when handling URLs like: http://user@example.com/foo Instead, we look in [auth] for an entry matching the URL and supplied user name. Entries without username can match URL with a username. Prefix length ties are resolved in favor of entries matching the username. With: foo.prefix = http://example.org foo.username = user foo.password = password bar.prefix = http://example.org/bar and the input URL: http://user@example.org/bar the 'bar' entry will be selected because of prefix length, therefore prompting for a password. This behaviour ensure that entries selection is consistent when looking for credentials or for certificates, and that certificates can be picked even if their entries do no define usernames while the URL does. Additionally, entries without a username matched against a username are returned as if they did have requested username set to avoid prompting again for a username if the password is not set. v2: reparse the URL in readauthforuri() to handle HTTP and HTTPS similarly. v3: allow unset usernames to match URL usernames to pick certificates. Resolve prefix length ties in favor of entries with usernames.
