heptapod-ci: add a script to map evolve branch to mercurial revision for tests map-hg-rev.sh can be tested using this command: ```sh for i in $(hg log -T '{branch}\n' | sort -u); do echo $i $(testlib/map-hg-rev.sh $i) done ```

pytype: ignore abc.ABCMeta metaclasses that don't work on py3 See 70d42e2ad9b4 in hg: We can remove this when we're Python 3-only, but for now it's just too awkward to deal with and it's harmless.

tests: remove extra whitespace before patch in obslog output The indent() template function was fixed in https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7432 so now we have less trailing whitespace in obslog output. CORE-TEST-OUTPUT-UPDATE: fa246ada356b

branching: merge with stable

changelog: add a couple of missing entry about the next feature release

changelog: fix entry in the wrong location That change was made on default, not stable.

changelog: add a wheelbarrow of missing entries

heptapod-ci: simpler CI We have a mercurial clone available in the docker image now. This will same some time to avoid a full Mercurial clone for each run.

heptapod-ci: run the test with color This make the result easier to read.

compat: compatibility for cl.nodemap.get vs cl.index.get_rev

obslog: phase divergence fix for 5c41bb482867 I forgot to pull the latest version before publishing the topic :-(

obslog: phase divergence fix for b135591bec1a I forgot to pull the latest version before publishing the topic :-(

obslog: make {descdiff} not be indented and leave that to the template Same idea as the previous patch and same explanation for changes to the test case.

obslog: make {patch} not be indented and leave that to the template This removes some unwanted indentation from the tests. In the first case, it's because indent() doesn't indent a blank line. In the second case, it's because we used templating with {patch} and had not requested indentation (but we still got it before this patch). Note that tests will only pass with a very recent Mercurial (one with https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7432 applied).

obslog: make {succnodes} be full hex nodes It should be up to the user to shorten the nodeid as much or as little as they like.

obslog: remove now-unused code for plain styling We now always use a non-plain formatter for the non-local-filtering code paths, so we can remove the code for plain styling. I couldn't figure out how to replace the fm.formatlist() by something less about formatting, so I've only removed the irrelevant arguments from those calls.

obslog: redefine default output as a template, unless -f was given This was easier than I expected to do without affecting any test output at all. `hg obslog -f` is pretty broken with templating. For example, it inserts a single "date" field, but it provides two values for it if the dates are different. That results in a traceback when running e.g. `hg obslog -f -Tfoo` with non-local obsmarkers with different dates. We need to figure out what we want to put in the template for the filtered case. I've just left it out for now.

obslog: add newline after all markers in non-graphlog to match graphlog I'd also be fine with doing the reverse if that's preferred, but I really want them to be the same so they can use the same template.

obslog: make reason for unavailable patch part of template We need the reason to be in the template in order to be able to templatize the whole output.

obslog: make content and description patches available to templater The code was repeatedly calling fm.write() with the same field ("patch" and "descdiff"). I think that led to the value constantly getting replaced, so when it was used in a template (as {patch} or {descdiff}), it would only get the last value, which was always an empty string. This patch fixes it by writing the full patch to a temporary buffer and then assigning the whole patch to the formatter field.

obslog: rename {desc-diff} to {descdiff} since the former is invalid

tests: demonstrate broken {patch} and {desc-diff} template keywords

topic: drop compat.successorssets(), it's not used The only place in topics that uses successorssets function is in evolvebits.py, and it's using that function from obsutil directly.

topic: drop compat.getmarkers() and use obsutil.getmarkers() directly The function in question was moved from obsolete to obsutil in a14e2e7f7d1f (hg 4.3). See also 6aff4bb3970d for hgext3rd/evolve.

cmdrewrite: avoid accessing scmutil.status fields by index Support for indexed access is going away in Mercurial. Accessing the fields by name is clearer anyway.

obslog: avoid using a formatter after calling end() on it I don't know if makes a difference, but it feels wrong to use it after calling end(). We can simply use the parent formatter in this case.

obslog: use plural name "effects" for list of all effects Same reasoning as the previous patch, but here the singular was used for the list instead. This patch also renames the variable that represents the list of effects to plural "effects" to reduce confusion.

obslog: use singular name "succnode" for each element of {succnodes} The name that we pass for formatlist() is the name of each element. After this patch, you'll write '{succnodes % "{succnode}"}' instead of the confusing '{succnodes % "{succnodes}"}' (where the two "succnodes" refer to different things. Users can write templates that are compatible across this change by using e.g. '{succnodes % "{if(succnode, succnode, succnodes)}"}'.

docs: add SVG figures for sharing.rst Generated by graphviz loosely based on .dot files produced by dotgraph extension.

docs: add some up-to-date output from push/pull commands Hopefully it's going to be helpful for users to better understand how evolve works.

docs: add two more amend commits to simulate temporary amend commits sharing.rst made reference to temporary amend commits and used them to demonstrate that hidden commits are not exchanged. Nowadays, evolve doesn't create such commits, but it still makes sense to show how they are handled during the exchange process. So let's add two more amend commits, one for each repo. This way the guide doesn't have to be updated too much, but doesn't lose this important detail of working with evolve. Unfortunately, this means that tons of hashes change, but it's better than to have figure 4 demonstrate absolutely nothing. Temporary amend commits were removed from test-sharing.t in 06844693bb21, but sharing.rst continued using them for demonstration purposes. It might've been better to replace at least some of the temporary amend commits by extra amends back then, but oh well.

docs: revision numbers are technically stable From `hg help glossary`: "Note that the revision number may be different in each clone of a repository." But cloning the same repo multiple times yields the same result, and that shows that revision numbers are stable.

tests: remove a repeated statement We looked at the review repo just 6 lines above.

docs: correct node hashes in sharing.rst based on test-sharing.t

tests: add shortlog of other repos to test-sharing.t The figures require showing multiple repos, so let's show them all, even if they look trivial.

tests: use |shortest in test-sharing.t because sharing.rst uses it

compat: compatibility for cl.nodemap.get vs cl.index.get_rev

compat: compatibility for pathuril.dirs vs util.dirs

branching: merge with stable

heptapod-ci: test with python3 too

heptapod-ci: add a --pure variant for the CI The end goal is to migrate all piece of the evolve CI currently en Jenkins.

heptapod-ci: let the number of CPU to be picked automatically We now have a larger, bigger machine to run the tests. Let's let run-tests.py pick the number of concurrent jobs.

branching: merge with stable

docs: remove --all from hg evolve, since it's been the default for some time

docs: typo in user-guide.rst

obslog: don't overwrite {rev} keyword from changeset context Now that we have the whole changeset in the formatter context, there's no need to explicitly add {rev}. We should also deprecate the {shortdescription} keyword since it's no longer needed, but I don't know how to do that.

obslog: make changeset available to templater obslog templating currently has very limited support for templating the precursor changeset (when available). The only available keywords are {node}, {rev}, and {shortdescription}. This patch makes the entire changeset available to the templater by passing it to formatter.context(). That function has been available since Mercurial 4.2.

tests: simplify by pruning unwanted changesets a little earlier The pruned commits are not relevant to the test case, so let's clean them up at the end of the previous test case instead of part-way through the next one.

evolve: use more often seen metavariables in command synopsis strings Also use ellipsis when multiple options are acceptable.

topic: add more options to command synopsis string

debian: also build with python3 We build with Python 3 along with Python 2. The binary package will contain the extension for both python version. This is to ease transition until the mercurial package in Debian uses Python 3. The documentation is still built with Python 2 because it needs Mercurial (which is currently Python 2).

debian: update debhelper compat Level before 9 are deprecated says debhelper 12. Upgrade to 10, which is available in Debian oldstable and old Ubuntu releases to be conservative (and since we probably don't need more).

debian: make it possible to by-pass doc build

debian: define extend-diff-ignore for dpkg-source This makes it possible to build the source package from a hg checkout (and a sdist) by having dpkg-source ignore files not distributed in sdist.

debian: use pybuild and dh_sphinxdoc Use pybuild because it's kind of standard nowadays. Use sphinxdoc debhelper to have a Depends: libjs-sphinxdoc and common files (JS/CSS) symlinked.

debian: mark 9.2.1-1 as released

obsexchange: delete dead code for old exchange protocol Dead since 79a926b557f1 (compat: drop support for older exchange protocol, 2017-10-25).

rewind: preserve date

metaedit: don't change commit date by default (issue5994) We deliberately unset devel.default-date to allow hg commands to see the real system date, that demonstrates that metaedit doesn't fall back to system date for any of these commands.

tests: simply use testlib/common.sh in test-metaedit.t

tests: turn glog shell function into an alias in test-metaedit.t Mostly because we already have an alias and because creating an alias is the usual way to customize log -G in tests.

tests: clean up test-metaedit.t Mostly just artifacts from the times when it was one big test-evolve.t. All completely unused nowadays.

help: categorizing evolve and topic commands This makes them show up under the right categories in 'hg help'. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D6999

tests: add the new "-r" bit to the usual merge hint CORE-TEST-OUTPUT-UPDATE: 8197b395710e

branching: merge back into default

pick: don't create any successors when there were no changes (issue6093) For example, when a changeset that user is trying to pick was already grafted or rebased (and no obsmarkers were created), pick will naturally say that there's no changes to commit and will not create the new commit. In that case it should not mark any changeset as a successor of the picked changeset, because the actual file changes were already there before picking. Technically, pick could (and did before this patch) mark the wdir commit as a successor of picked changeset (may be useful in the most trivial cases when e.g. wdir is a graft of the required change), but there are cases when the picked change is introduced in an ancestor of wdir, or even in multiple ancestors piece by piece. Pick definitely shouldn't be trying to guess something this complicated, so with this patch it always marks the picked change as pruned if it gave no changes to commit.

packaging: mark as development version This avoid confusion.

py3: return unicode from setup.py's get_version py3 expects the version number for eggs to be unicode, so despite 9.2.0 being the first evolve release with beta py3 support it isn't currently pip installable since it dies with: File "*/setuptools/command/egg_info.py", line *, in tagged_version return safe_version(version + self.vtags) TypeError: can't concat str to bytes The `setup.py install` test added in a previous commit should cover this since it died in a different but similar way before.

py3: remove smartquotes from README They break running setup.py with py3 but only in tests, because in the test environment `locale.getpreferredencoding()` is ANSI_X3.4-1968, so the file is `open()`ed with that as the encoding. An alternative for fixing this would be to make the `open()` call with `encoding='utf-8'` under py3, which would be safe against any future non-ascii in README.

setup: make runnable from other dirs Currently it fails when run in that way for two reasons: - the description is loaded from the README file but with a path relative to the working directory - module references have the same issue, which is fixed with package_dir.

setup: add a test for running setup.py `python3 -m pip install hg-evolve==9.2.0` currently fails, despite 9.2.0 being the first beta py3 release, because of unicode issues with the version number. `setup.py install` is a proxy test for pip install since it also suffers from similar, however the test currently fails due to running setup.py from a different directory to the one it is in. Also add a test for `hg version -v` with evolve enabled since a naive first solution for the pip issue was to just change `__version__` to a `u''` string, but that busts version display in `version -v`, which isn't currently picked up by tests.

gitlab-ci: be bold and try to run the full test in them This is a basic version that should work reasonably well. The setup is a bit costly and the cleanup is not guaranteed yet.

evolve: check that relocating makes sense in _solvedivergent() (issue5958)

tests: demonstrate content divergence causing "relocate node on top of itself"

cmdstate: introduce a "saver" contextmanager and use it in place of save() Previously, the state was only saved in some paths out of these functions. This can be problematic, if the user ctrl-c's (or `kill -9`'s) the process, or we exit out of `relocate` for anything besides the "expected" reason, we won't record that we were in the middle of an evolve. One of our users has discovered that this leaves hg in a weird state; the user did something like this: ``` $ hg evolve <something goes wrong with the merge tool, hits ctrl-c> <deals with the merge conflicts> $ hg evolve --continue abort: no interrupted evolve to continue $ hg evolve abort: uncommitted changes # Note: commands.status.verbose=True is set. $ hg status M foo # The repository is in an unfinished *update* state. # No unresolved merge conflicts # To continue: hg update ``` The user did an `hg update`, but it didn't actually do anything besides take it out of the unfinished update state (the files were still dirty in the working directory).

cmdstate: avoid setting a default argument to a mutable object (`{}`) If there's ever more than one cmdstate for the lifetime of the process, this can cause surprising behavior where the later cmdstates pick up options from the earlier ones. I've not seen any evidence this is actually causing any issues, but it's subtle enough that it should probably be fixed to help save significant debugging time later.

cmdstate: switch to new-style classes This isn't a huge issue and isn't necessary on Python3, but we're still Python2 compatible and we should be consistent (and strongly prefer new-style classes); this is the only class that is not deriving from object that I could find.

branching: merge stable into default

docs: add example for the `prune` command Giving at least one example helps clear up the syntax, especially since most options will follow a very similar pattern.

tests: add some more actions to test-issue-6028, describe what's being done This patch does two things: it explains what's happening in the test file so it's easier to understand, and also it adds checks that make sure something like swapping merge parents is not accidentally breaking anything. The primary reason to touch this test file was that it was broken by a change in core's merge.graft() that erroneously swapped merge parents. Since only evolve uses merge.graft() for merge commits and there aren't any tests in core for it, let's test it here. Plus, this test case is pretty simple and these additional checks don't make it too complicated.

topic: fix some API to make it more robust The new code can deal with changes in upstream mercurial.

rewriteutil: move allowdivergence check to foldcheck() foldcheck() calls precheck() first and then performs more fold-specific checks.

test: change to output around transaction timing CORE-TEST-OUTPUT-UPDATE: d7304434390f

stablerange: add some documentation about the general concept

stablesort: add some field data about stable sort cache

stablesort: introduce a small debugstablesortcache command This give a small insight on the cache content.

stablesort: add some documentation for stablesort This should help people to understand what is going on here.

fold: check allowdivergence before folding obsolete changesets (issue5817)

tests: demonstrate that fold doesn't care about allowdivergence config option

stack: remove unnecessary copying of rdependencies rdependencies is not modified in any way in this method, so no need to copy it.

stack: make a deep copy of `dependencies` before modifying its items The algorithm later on in this method uses .remove() to remove individual elements from items in dependencies, which before this patch modified the cached property contents. So for further use that dictionary was in the form of {1: set([])}, i.e. all sets were empty. This deep copy block could be way simpler, but the problem is that sometimes we get lists of _succs() from evolvebits.builddependencies(). Note: this happens only in topic's stack version of builddependencies() and it looks like a suboptimal way to handle multiple successors (see evolve's counterpart function). stack.builddependencies method is removed, it has served its purpose (see the previous patch).

stack: demonstrate that not reusing cached property gives different results Instead of using self._dependencies, which is a cached property, let's get fresh deps and rdeps in stack.revs method using a newly introduced stack.builddependencies method (will be removed in the next patch). This makes it easier to explain why the next patch is correct.

branching: merge with stable

changelog: add missing entry for 9af212b8565a

evolve: test that target is not orig in _solveunstable() (issue6097) `newer` is the result of obsutil.successorssets() and can be [[orig.node()]], in which case later on in this function evolve will try to rebase orig onto orig, which is not correct. So let's just check this particular case. This fix doesn't cover cases when successorssets() result contains orig.node() not at [0][0]. Such cases need tests.

tests: demonstrate an orphan changeset cause "relocate node on top of itself" See issue6097.

obslog: only indent the first chunk and chunks just after newlines (issue6175)

tests: demonstrate too many spaces in olog -p output with word-diff

rewind: add --keep flag that "doesn't modify working directory" The actual logic is more complicated than the flag description, but it's sufficiently similar to other --keep flags in action. Unlike strip (or prune), rewind always needs to modify the working directory to commit new revisions that "revive" old ones [1], see _revive_revision() (and rewriteutil.rewrite()). Because of that we don't prevent rewind from modifying wdir, but instead use hg.updaterepo() to update to the old changeset after the "revival" process is complete. Then we rebuild the dirstate based on the commit that rewind would update to without --keep. Since dirstate.rebuild() doesn't restore status of some files (added, removed, also copies and renames), we rely on cmdutil.revert(). It's a fairly crude solution and needs to be removed when implementing the missing copy tracing between oldctx and newctx (which are related only by obsolescence). [1] IOW this means that --keep doesn't allow rewinding if wdir is dirty (unlike e.g. strip).

tests: separate rewinding of merge commits, temporarily drop an error case The error case will come back in the following commit, because it organically fits there without the need of a separate working clone.

python3: add python3 beta support to the CHANGELOG

python3: mention beta Python 3 support in README

python3: add supported python versions to setup.py Mercurial technically can support Python 3.5 (although no lower, see its setup.py), but `evolve` probably won't because it represents more work for an underrepresented Python version. If you happen to *really* need evolve to work on Python 3 and you're reading this message, send an email to the mailing list, or contribute patches.

test: update output for wider cache warming CORE-TEST-OUTPUT-UPDATE: cdf0e9523de1

branching: merge with stable format source worked smoothly :-)

python3: use format-source to run byteify-strings in .py files Using the format-source extension smooth out the pain of merging after auto-formatting. This change makes all of the Evolve test suite pass under python3 and has added benefit of being 100% automated using mercurial's `byteify-strings` script version 1.0 (revision 11498aa91c036c6d70f7ac5ee5af2664a84a1130). How to benefit from the help of format-source is explained in the README.

topic: add a new random attribute (This is mostly an excuse to test the format-source setup)

python3: enforce byte prefix for vfs.open() Changeset ea8da5aa23c6e723d7f0006387a1a20eef58fc9a added raw prefix to open(), but also to vfs.open(). The latter only handles bytestring arguments.

python3: add raw prefix to sqlite isolation level

python3: add ignore block around python 2 compatibility if branch

flake8: silence F633 error

python3: add raw prefix to edge-cases kwargs-like objects

python3: add raw prefix to open()-like functions

python3: add raw prefix to all array.array() calls

python3: add raw prefix to "troubles"-related dicts The `byteify-strings.py` script cannot know that these will be used in a way that requires to use a system string without some pretty hardcore hardcoding.

python3: add raw prefix in cases harder to analyze at the token level The `byteify-strings.py` script would be a lot more complicated if it had to do backtracking and other more advanced static analysis to figure our those cases, so we have to add the raw prefix to those cases manually.

python3: add byte prefix for objects that look like kwargs but aren't The `byteify-strings.py` script has no way of knowing that those aren't acutally kwargs since it works purely at the tokenization level, so we have to add the byte prefix to their keys manually.

python3: mark all SQL queries as raw strings

python3: prefix all regex to work with python 2 and 3

pick: added support for hg abort This patch isolates abort logic for `hg pick --abort` as `abortpick()`. For independent calls via `hg abort` `hgabortpick()` is created and registered to the state detection API. Results are shown as tests.

pick: factor our the abort function This prepare the upcoming support for `hg pick` in `hg abort.

abort: added support for evolve to hg abort This patch adds support of `hg evolve --abort` to `hg abort` plan. This involves creating a `hgabortevolve()` function under `evolvecmd` which ensures abortion of evolve via `hg abort`. This function is then registered using `addunfinished()` in `__init__.py`. Results are shown as tests.

evolve: fixed lock acquire before checking state Before checking the states `repo.lock()` and `repo.wlock()` need to be acquired. This was not happening in `evolve()` earlier. This patch creates a seperate `_performevolve()` funtion which can be then called with locks acquired. This also removes the redundant lock acuquiring of `abortevolve` and `continueevolve` as lock is now taken earlier.

py3: add back a progress(0) call lost in 8664231b47ac I don't think it really matters, but it wasn't intentional, so let's just restore the old behavior.

prune: adjust 'nothing to prune' to imply user needs to specify revs to prune

prune: fix small grammatical issues in help text

docs: update evolve-faq.rst with new prune flag and proper vocabulary Also strip trailing newlines.

prune: spell --successor flag without any unnecessary shortcuts If a user wants to spell out -s, it makes sense to allow that. Before this patch, prune would complain that --successor is not a recognized option. Obviously people don't usually need to spell --successors by hand thanks to shell completion (at least for Bash) using debugcomplete to see all available flags, so this patch doesn't bring any need for more typing. And thanks to Mercurial understanding shortened forms of command-line flags as long as they are unambiguous, the old-style `--succ` flags still work normally, and there are tests that use them. But two tests now use the full form to demonstrate that both ways work.

py3: redefine "troublecategories" in evolve as a dict We'll want to the keys to be bytes and the values to be unicode on py3. Having it defined as a dict makes that easier (instead of converting between the types with e.g. pycompat.sysbytes()). It was kind of ugly to convert between the forms by stripping '_' from the string anyway.

py3: store to __doc__ as str (unicode on py3)

py3: also catch ImportError when relative import fails Python 3 apparently raises an ImportError where Python 2 raised a ValueError.

py3: convert exceptions to bytes using pycompat.bytestr()

py3: use "%d" for formatting integers

py3: avoid "%s" for formatting None

py3: use "%f" for formatting floating point number

py3: fix progress() functions to not use "%s" with int Python3 doesn't support "%s" with int arguments (and not with None arguments either, which this code was also using).

py3: make random topic name generation consistent across py2/py3 random.choice() (and others based on random.randint()) changed between py2 and py3 without a way to get the py2 behavior. However, random.random() did not change, so we can re-implement random.choice() based on that.

py3: convert str to bytes before passing to core exception

py3: convert opts keys to bytes before passing to core APIs

evolve: further clarify when update is performed

py3: avoid comparing int and None

py3: avoid "%r" for list of byte strings, which produces b'' on py3

py3: avoid "%r" for byte string, which produces b'' on py3 Replaced by "'%s'", which I think is clearer anyway.

py3: replace str(ctx) by bytes(ctx) These are all for messages to the user and we don't want unicode for that.

py3: use inspect.signature() instead of inspect.getargspec() on py3

py3: use array.array.{to,from}bytes() on py3 array.array.{to,from}string() still exists on py3, but they're deprecated and generate warnings. I've put the compat function in compat.pt for now. We can move into a dedicated pycompat.py if we end up with a lot of py3 compat stuff.

py3: config values can be bytes, but never unicode

py3: call branchmap.items() on py3 and continue to call iteritems() on py2 Mercurial's source transformer also replaces the 'def iteritems(' in branchmap by 'def items(', so we need to call whichever version is there.

py3: switch from iteritems() to items() in the topics extension The only remaining iteritems() call is on branchmap. That will be dealt with in the next patch.

py3: filter() now returns a generator, so wrap when we need a list

py3: don't depend on map() iterating over its input map(some_generator()) in py2 returns a list, while in py3 it returns a generator, so the passed-in generator won't be called unless the returned one is.

py3: implement __bool__ in addition to __nonzero__

py3: replace iter.next() by next(iter)

py3: replace xrange() by range()
