pager: set some environment variables if they're not set Git did this already [1] [2]. We want this behavior too [3]. This provides a better default user experience (like, supporting colors) if users have things like "PAGER=less" set, which is not uncommon. The environment variables are provided by a method so extensions can override them on demand.

r20581 Using Additional Features
"""""""""""""""""""""""""
Mercurial has the ability to add new features through the use of
extensions. Extensions may add new commands, add options to existing
commands, change the default behavior of commands, or implement hooks.
To enable the "foo" extension, either shipped with Mercurial or in the
Python search path, create an entry for it in your configuration file,
like this:
[extensions]
foo =
You may also specify the full path to an extension:
[extensions]
myfeature = ~/.hgext/myfeature.py

minirst: change hgrole to use single quotes...
r27729 See 'hg help config' for more information on configuration files.
Augie Fackler
test-help.t: add test for 'hg help extensions'...
r20581
Extensions are not loaded by default for a variety of reasons: they can
increase startup overhead; they may be meant for advanced usage only; they
may provide potentially dangerous abilities (such as letting you destroy
or modify history); they might not be ready for prime time; or they may
alter some usual behaviors of stock Mercurial. It is thus up to the user
to activate extensions as needed.
To explicitly disable an extension enabled in a configuration file of
broader scope, prepend its path with !:
[extensions]
# disabling extension bar residing in /path/to/extension/bar.py
bar = !/path/to/extension/bar.py
# ditto, but no path was supplied for extension baz
baz = !
enabled extensions:
children command to display child changesets (DEPRECATED)
rebase command to move sets of revisions to a different ancestor
disabled extensions:
acl hooks for controlling repository access
blackbox log repository events to a blackbox for debugging
bugzilla hooks for integrating with the Bugzilla bug tracker

Alternatively you can specify -c/--change with a revision to see the
changes in that changeset relative to its first parent.
Without the -a/--text option, diff will avoid generating diffs of files it
detects as binary. With -a, diff will generate a diff anyway, probably
with undesirable results.
Use the -g/--git option to generate diffs in the git extended diff format.

If one revision is given, it is used as the base revision. If two
revisions are given, the differences between them are shown. The --change
option can also be used as a shortcut to list the changed files of a
revision from its first parent.
The codes used to show the status of files are:

r27379
Changegroups are representations of repository revlog data, specifically

filelogs.

changegroups: add documentation for cg3
r27434 There are 3 versions of changegroups: "1", "2", and "3". From a high-
level, versions "1" and "2" are almost exactly the same, with the only
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 difference being an additional item in the *delta header*. Version "3"
adds support for revlog flags in the *delta header* and optionally
exchanging treemanifests (enabled by setting an option on the
"changegroup" part in the bundle2).
Changegroups when not exchanging treemanifests consist of 3 logical
segments:

| | | | |
+-------------------------------------------------+
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379 The principle building block of each segment is a *chunk*. A *chunk* is a
framed piece of data:
+---------------------------------------+
| | |
| length | data |
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 | (4 bytes) | (<length - 4> bytes) |
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379 | | |
+---------------------------------------+
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 All integers are big-endian signed integers. Each chunk starts with a
32-bit integer indicating the length of the entire chunk (including the
length field itself).
There is a special case chunk that has a value of 0 for the length
("0x00000000"). We call this an *empty chunk*.

Delta Groups

r29747 ============
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379
A *delta group* expresses the content of a revlog as a series of deltas,
or patches against previous revisions.
Delta groups consist of 0 or more *chunks* followed by the *empty chunk*
to signal the end of the delta group:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| | | | | |
| chunk0 length | chunk0 data | chunk1 length | chunk1 data | 0x0 |

r31213 +---------------------------------------+
| | |
| delta header | delta data |
| (various by version) | (various) |

+---------------------------------------+
The *delta data* is a series of *delta*s that describe a diff from an
existing entry (either that the recipient already has, or previously
specified in the bundlei/changegroup).

r31213 The *delta data* consists of "chunklen - 4 - headerlen" bytes, which
contain a series of *delta*s, densely packed (no separators). These deltas
describe a diff from an existing entry (either that the recipient already
has, or previously specified in the bundle/changegroup). The format is
described more fully in "hg help internals.bdiff", but briefly:

r31213
Please note that the length field in the delta data does *not* include
itself.
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379
In version 1, the delta is always applied against the previous node from
the changegroup or the first parent if this is the first entry in the
changegroup.
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 In version 2 and up, the delta base node is encoded in the entry in the
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379 changegroup. This allows the delta to be expressed against any parent,
which can result in smaller deltas and more efficient encoding of data.
Changeset Segment
Gregory Szorc
help: don't try to render a section on sub-topics...
r29747 =================
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379
The *changeset segment* consists of a single *delta group* holding
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 changelog data. The *empty chunk* at the end of the *delta group* denotes
the boundary to the *manifest segment*.
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...

Manifest Segment
Gregory Szorc
help: don't try to render a section on sub-topics...
r29747 ================
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379
The *manifest segment* consists of a single *delta group* holding manifest
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 data. If treemanifests are in use, it contains only the manifest for the
root directory of the repository. Otherwise, it contains the entire
manifest data. The *empty chunk* at the end of the *delta group* denotes
the boundary to the next segment (either the *treemanifests segment* or
the *filelogs segment*, depending on version and the request options).
Treemanifests Segment
---------------------
The *treemanifests segment* only exists in changegroup version "3", and
only if the 'treemanifest' param is part of the bundle2 changegroup part
(it is not possible to use changegroup version 3 outside of bundle2).
Aside from the filenames in the *treemanifests segment* containing a
trailing "/" character, it behaves identically to the *filelogs segment*
(see below). The final sub-segment is followed by an *empty chunk*
(logically, a sub-segment with filename size 0). This denotes the boundary
to the *filelogs segment*.
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...

Filelogs Segment

r29747 ================
Gregory Szorc

Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 The *filelogs segment* consists of multiple sub-segments, each
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379 corresponding to an individual file whose data is being described:
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 +--------------------------------------------------+
| | | | | |
| filelog0 | filelog1 | filelog2 | ... | 0x0 |
| | | | | (4 bytes) |
| | | | | |
+--------------------------------------------------+
The final filelog sub-segment is followed by an *empty chunk* (logically,
a sub-segment with filename size 0). This denotes the end of the segment
and of the overall changegroup.
Gregory Szorc
help: support loading sub-topics...
r27379
Each filelog sub-segment consists of the following:
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 +------------------------------------------------------+
| | | |
| filename length | filename | delta group |
| (4 bytes) | (<length - 4> bytes) | (various) |

Gregory Szorc

r27379
That is, a *chunk* consisting of the filename (not terminated or padded)
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 followed by N chunks constituting the *delta group* for this file. The
*empty chunk* at the end of each *delta group* denotes the boundary to the
next filelog sub-segment.

Date Formats
""""""""""""
Some commands allow the user to specify a date, e.g.:
- backout, commit, import, tag: Specify the commit date.
- log, revert, update: Select revision(s) by date.
Many date formats are valid. Here are some examples:
- "Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006" (local timezone assumed)
- "Dec 6 13:18 -0600" (year assumed, time offset provided)
- "Dec 6 13:18 UTC" (UTC and GMT are aliases for +0000)
- "Dec 6" (midnight)
- "13:18" (today assumed)
- "3:39" (3:39AM assumed)
- "3:39pm" (15:39)
- "2006-12-06 13:18:29" (ISO 8601 format)
- "2006-12-6 13:18"
- "2006-12-6"
- "12-6"
- "12/6"
- "12/6/6" (Dec 6 2006)
- "today" (midnight)
- "yesterday" (midnight)
- "now" - right now
Lastly, there is Mercurial's internal format:
- "1165411109 0" (Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006 UTC)
This is the internal representation format for dates. The first number is
the number of seconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00 UTC). The second
is the offset of the local timezone, in seconds west of UTC (negative if
the timezone is east of UTC).
The log command also accepts date ranges:
- "<DATE" - at or before a given date/time
- ">DATE" - on or after a given date/time
- "DATE to DATE" - a date range, inclusive
- "-DAYS" - within a given number of days of today

help: search section of help topic by translated section name correctly...
r29155 Test section lookup by translated message
str.lower() instead of encoding.lower(str) on translated message might
make message meaningless, because some encoding uses 0x41(A) - 0x5a(Z)
as the second or later byte of multi-byte character.
For example, "\x8bL\x98^" (translation of "record" in ja_JP.cp932)
contains 0x4c (L). str.lower() replaces 0x4c(L) by 0x6c(l) and this
replacement makes message meaningless.
This tests that section lookup by translated string isn't broken by
such str.lower().

r24100 Test dynamic list of merge tools only shows up once
$ hg help merge-tools
Merge Tools
"""""""""""
To merge files Mercurial uses merge tools.
A merge tool combines two different versions of a file into a merged file.
Merge tools are given the two files and the greatest common ancestor of
the two file versions, so they can determine the changes made on both
branches.
timeless
minirst: change hgrole to use single quotes...
r27729 Merge tools are used both for 'hg resolve', 'hg merge', 'hg update', 'hg
backout' and in several extensions.
Augie Fackler
test-help: add test to demonstrate that 'hg help merge-tools' is sane
r24100
Usually, the merge tool tries to automatically reconcile the files by
combining all non-overlapping changes that occurred separately in the two
different evolutions of the same initial base file. Furthermore, some
interactive merge programs make it easier to manually resolve conflicting
merges, either in a graphical way, or by inserting some conflict markers.
Mercurial does not include any interactive merge programs but relies on
external tools for that.
Available merge tools
=====================
External merge tools and their properties are configured in the merge-
tools configuration section - see hgrc(5) - but they can often just be
named by their executable.
A merge tool is generally usable if its executable can be found on the
system and if it can handle the merge. The executable is found if it is an
absolute or relative executable path or the name of an application in the
executable search path. The tool is assumed to be able to handle the merge
if it can handle symlinks if the file is a symlink, if it can handle
binary files if the file is binary, and if a GUI is available if the tool
requires a GUI.
There are some internal merge tools which can be used. The internal merge
tools are:
":dump"
Creates three versions of the files to merge, containing the contents of
local, other and base. These files can then be used to perform a merge
manually. If the file to be merged is named "a.txt", these files will
accordingly be named "a.txt.local", "a.txt.other" and "a.txt.base" and
they will be placed in the same directory as "a.txt".
":fail"
Rather than attempting to merge files that were modified on both
branches, it marks them as unresolved. The resolve command must be used
to resolve these conflicts.
":local"

filemerge: use revset notation for p1/p2 of local/other descriptions
r28640 Uses the local 'p1()' version of files as the merged version.
Augie Fackler
test-help: add test to demonstrate that 'hg help merge-tools' is sane
r24100
":merge"
Uses the internal non-interactive simple merge algorithm for merging
files. It will fail if there are any conflicts and leave markers in the
partially merged file. Markers will have two sections, one for each side
of merge.

side of the merge and one for the base content.

Augie Fackler
test-help: add test to demonstrate that 'hg help merge-tools' is sane
r24100 Internal tools are always available and do not require a GUI but will by
default not handle symlinks or binary files.
Choosing a merge tool
=====================
Mercurial uses these rules when deciding which merge tool to use:
1. If a tool has been specified with the --tool option to merge or
resolve, it is used. If it is the name of a tool in the merge-tools
configuration, its configuration is used. Otherwise the specified tool
must be executable by the shell.
2. If the "HGMERGE" environment variable is present, its value is used and
must be executable by the shell.
3. If the filename of the file to be merged matches any of the patterns in
the merge-patterns configuration section, the first usable merge tool
corresponding to a matching pattern is used. Here, binary capabilities
of the merge tool are not considered.
4. If ui.merge is set it will be considered next. If the value is not the
name of a configured tool, the specified value is used and must be
executable by the shell. Otherwise the named tool is used if it is
usable.
5. If any usable merge tools are present in the merge-tools configuration
section, the one with the highest priority is used.
6. If a program named "hgmerge" can be found on the system, it is used -
but it will by default not be used for symlinks and binary files.
7. If the file to be merged is not binary and is not a symlink, then
internal ":merge" is used.
8. The merge of the file fails and must be resolved before commit.
Note:
After selecting a merge program, Mercurial will by default attempt to
merge the files using a simple merge algorithm first. Only if it
doesn't succeed because of conflicting changes Mercurial will actually
execute the merge program. Whether to use the simple merge algorithm
first can be controlled by the premerge setting of the merge tool.
Premerge is enabled by default unless the file is binary or a symlink.
See the merge-tools and ui sections of hgrc(5) for details on the
configuration of merge tools.

r31213 high-level, versions &quot;1&quot; and &quot;2&quot; are almost exactly the same, with the
only difference being an additional item in the *delta header*. Version
&quot;3&quot; adds support for revlog flags in the *delta header* and optionally
exchanging treemanifests (enabled by setting an option on the
&quot;changegroup&quot; part in the bundle2).

r31213 In version 2 and up, the delta base node is encoded in the entry in the

hgweb: support rendering a sub-topic...
r27582 <p>
Kyle Lippincott
help: fix internals.changegroups...
r31213 The *manifest segment* consists of a single *delta group* holding manifest
data. If treemanifests are in use, it contains only the manifest for the
root directory of the repository. Otherwise, it contains the entire
manifest data. The *empty chunk* at the end of the *delta group* denotes
the boundary to the next segment (either the *treemanifests segment* or the
*filelogs segment*, depending on version and the request options).
</p>
<h3>Treemanifests Segment</h3>
<p>
The *treemanifests segment* only exists in changegroup version &quot;3&quot;, and
only if the 'treemanifest' param is part of the bundle2 changegroup part
(it is not possible to use changegroup version 3 outside of bundle2).
Aside from the filenames in the *treemanifests segment* containing a
trailing &quot;/&quot; character, it behaves identically to the *filelogs segment*
(see below). The final sub-segment is followed by an *empty chunk* (logically,
a sub-segment with filename size 0). This denotes the boundary to the
*filelogs segment*.
