color: turn 'ui.color' into a boolean (auto or off)...
color: turn 'ui.color' into a boolean (auto or off) Previously, 'ui.color=yes' meant "always show color", While "ui.color=auto" meant "use color automatically when it appears sensible". This feels problematic to some people because if an administrator has disabled color with "ui.color=off", and a user turn it back on using "color=on", it will get surprised (because it breaks their output when redirected to a file.) This patch changes ui.color=true to only move the default value of --color from "never" to "auto". I'm not really in favor of this changes as I suspect the above case will be pretty rare and I would rather keep the logic simpler. However, I'm providing this patch to help the 4.2 release in the case were others decide to make this changes. Users that want to force colors without specifying --color on the command line can use the 'ui.formatted' config knob, which had to be enabled in a handful of tests for this patch. Nice summary table (credit: Augie Fackler) That is, before this patch: +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | | not a tty | a tty | | | --color not set | --color not set | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color (not set) | no color | no color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color = auto | no color | color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color = yes | *color* | color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color = no | no color | no color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ (if --color is specified, it always clobbers the setting in [ui]) and after this patch: +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | | not a tty | a tty | | | --color not set | --color not set | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color (not set) | no color | no color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color = auto | no color | color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color = yes | *no color* | color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ | [ui] | | | | color = no | no color | no color | | | | | +--------------------+--------------------+--------------------+ (if --color is specified, it always clobbers the setting in [ui])

internals: add some brief documentation about censor
 r31280 The censor system allows retroactively removing content from
files. Actually censoring a node requires using the censor extension,
but the functionality for handling censored nodes is partially in core.
Censored nodes in a filelog have the flag ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` set,
and the contents of the censored node are replaced with a censor
tombstone. For historical reasons, the tombstone is packed in the
filelog metadata field ``censored``. This allows censored nodes to be
(mostly) safely transmitted through old formats like changegroup
versions 1 and 2. When using changegroup formats older than 3, the
receiver is required to re-add the ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` flag when
storing the revision. This depends on the ``censored`` metadata key
never being used for anything other than censoring revisions, which is
true as of January 2017. Note that the revlog flag is the
authoritative marker of a censored node: the tombstone should only be
consulted when looking for a reason a node was censored or when revlog
flags are unavailable as mentioned above.
The tombstone data is a free-form string. It's expected that users of
censor will want to record the reason for censoring a node in the
tombstone. Censored nodes must be able to fit in the size of the
content being censored.
