pick: remove transaction on the whole command (issue6037) At its core, pick is a pretty straightforward and well-behaving command, it uses functions already in core hg, it checks that wdir is clean and that changeset to pick is not public, it checks if there happen to be merge conflicts and can be --continue'd later, etc. It is very similar to graft in core (it also uses mergemod.graft function), but it obsoletes the original changeset. However, graft does not experience this incorrect behavior from issue 6037. What happens in the test case for this issue when we pick a revision that touches both "a" and "b": mergemod.graft() takes the original changeset and tries to apply it to the wdir, which results in "b" being marked as newly added and ready to be committed, "a" updated with the new content and being marked as modified, but "a" also has conflicts. Pick correctly notices this and saves its state before asking for user intervention. So far so good. However, when the command raises InterventionRequired to print a user-facing message and exit while being wrapped in repo.transaction() context manager, the latter partially undoes what mergemod.graft() did: it unmarks "b" as added. And when user continues pick, "b" is therefore not tracked and is not included in the resulting commit. The transaction is not useful here, because it doesn't touch wdir (it's still dirty), it doesn't remove pickstate (and other commands will refuse to work until pick --abort or --continue), it just makes "b" untracked. The solution is to use repo.transaction() only to wrap code that writes data to hg store in the final stages of the command after all checks have passed and is not expected to fail on trivial cases like merge conflicts. For example, committing the picked changeset. But since pick uses repo.commit() for that, and because that function already uses a transaction, wrapping it in another transaction doesn't make sense.

tests: demonstrate hg pick forgetting files after conflicts This test currently passes to show that pick is behaving incorrectly.

packaging: follow hg's supported python version (>= 2.7) "Mercurial 4.3 and newer require Python 2.7." (From https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/SupportedPythonVersions) Also add X- prefix, because that's the correct form, apparently. This line can also be removed in future, since "When Debian supported multiple Python versions, X-Python-Version was used, but it is obsolete now as no supported Debian release supports anything other than python2.7." (From https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide) That page also mentions "X-Python3-Version".

packaging: require hg 4.5 also for usage, not just for building

packaging: require mercurial >= 4.5 Otherwise building the doc package fails with: (third party extension evolve requires version 4.5 or newer of Mercurial; disabling) Exception occurred: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mercurial/help.py", line 624, in help_ raise error.Abort(msg, hint=hint) Abort: no such help topic: evolve

evolve: clarify why returning by adding inline doc

evolve: move a code block to have right value in has_some_val Because of this we were having wrong value of has_some_val and had some buggy behavior which is being fixed by this patch. Fixed behavior is reflected by the changes in test file.

topic: add tests which demonstrate topicset failure of FilteredRepoLookupError When topics are used, it fails to find hidden revs mentioned in a revset as we are not using unfiltered view of repo. Next patch will fix it.

pick: reduce configoverride() scope Merge tool is only needed for merge.graft() (it's what graft in core hg does), so let's make the scope of the ui.configoverride() narrower.

evolve: correct action verb in a message

evolve: internationalize a message This exact message was already wrapped in _() in the same file, just not here.

evolvecmd: the proper way to deal with conflicts is to resolve them And it's worth making the suggestion an actual hint.

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.5 into mercurial-4.4

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.6 into mercurial-4.5

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.7 into mercurial-4.6

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.8 into mercurial-4.7

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.9 into mercurial-4.8

test-compat: merge stable into mercurial-4.9

branching: merge with 9.0.0

branching: merge back with stable

packaging: mark as development versions This help to distinct official release from in progress work.

Added tag 9.0.0 for changeset 756db65030c6

packaging: prepare release 9.0.0

doc: clarify the status of configuration of the obshashrange protocol

changelog: add various missing bits

templatekw: keep compatibility with Mercurial 4.5 This is simple enough to do.

test: adjust output to stable branch We are about to make a release.

branching: merge with stable

templates: don't alias keywords directly Putting the same function twice in the registry results in duplicate doc strings and therefore confusing "hg help template" output.

stack: remove 'topic.' prefix from colors/labels Stack is related to topics, sure, but it is also good enough to be recognized on its own.
