We have a common pattern of the following code: backup = ui.backupconfig(section, name) try: ui.setconfig(section, name, temporaryvalue, source) do_something() finally: ui.restoreconfig(backup) IMO, this looks better: with ui.configoverride({(section, name): temporaryvalue}, source): do_something() Especially this becomes more convenient when one has to backup multiple config values before doing something. In such case, adding a new value to backup requires codemod in three places. diff -r 798bcb1274dd -r b0a8337ba9af mercurial/ui.py --- a/mercurial/ui.py Mon Nov 21 18:17:02 2016 -0500 +++ b/mercurial/ui.py Mon Nov 21 16:22:26 2016 -0800 @@ -7,6 +7,7 @@ from __future__ import absolute_import +import contextlib import errno import getpass import inspect @@ -1193,6 +1194,23 @@ " update your code.)") % version self.develwarn(msg, stacklevel=2, config='deprec-warn') + @contextlib.contextmanager + def configoverride(self, overrides, source=""): + """Context manager for temporary config overrides + `overrides` must be a dict of the following structure: + {(section, name) : value}""" + backups = {} + for (section, name), value in overrides.items(): + backups[(section, name)] = self.backupconfig(section, name) + self.setconfig(section, name, value, source) + yield + for __, backup in backups.items(): + self.restoreconfig(backup) + # just restoring ui.quiet config to the previous value is not enough + # as it does not update ui.quiet class member + if ('ui', 'quiet') in overrides: + self.fixconfig(section='ui') + class paths(dict): """Represents a collection of paths and their configs.
