"""chainsaw is a collection of single-minded and dangerous tools. (EXPERIMENTAL)

  "Don't use a chainsaw to cut your food!"

The chainsaw is a collection of commands that are so much geared towards a
specific use case in a specific context or environment that they are totally
inappropriate and **really dangerous** in other contexts.

The help text of each command explicitly summarizes its context of application
and the wanted end result.

It is recommended to run these commands with the ``HGPLAIN`` environment
variable (see :hg:`help scripting`).

    """pull and update to a given revision, no matter what, (EXPERIMENTAL)

    Context of application: *some* Continuous Integration (CI) systems,
    packaging or deployment tools.

    Wanted end result: local repository at the given REPO_PATH, having the
    latest changes to the given revision and with a clean working directory
    updated at the given revision.

    chainsaw-update pulls from one source, then updates the working directory
    to the given revision, overcoming anything that would stand in the way.

    By default, it will:

    - clone if the local repo does not exist yet, **removing any directory
      at the given path** that would not be a Mercurial repository.
      The initial clone is full by default, so that clonebundles can be
      applied. Use the --initial-clone-minimal flag to avoid this.
    - break locks if needed, leading to possible corruption if there
      is a concurrent write access.
    - perform recovery actions if needed
    - revert any local modification.
    - purge unknown and ignored files.
    - go as far as to reclone if everything else failed (not implemented yet).

    DO NOT use it for anything else than performing a series
    of unattended updates, with full exclusive repository access each time
    and without any other local work than running build scripts.
    In case the local repository is a share (see :hg:`help share`), exclusive
    write access to the share source is also mandatory.

    It is recommended to run these commands with the ``HGPLAIN`` environment
    variable (see :hg:`scripting`).

    Motivation: in Continuous Integration and Delivery systems (CI/CD), the
    occasional remnant or bogus lock are common sources of waste of time (both
    working time and calendar time). CI/CD scripts tend to grow with counter-
    measures, often done in urgency. Also, whilst it is neat to keep
    repositories from one job to the next (especially with large
    repositories), an exceptional recloning is better than missing a release
    deadline.
