The Mercurial system uses a set of configuration files to control
|
|
|
aspects of its behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Troubleshooting
|
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you're having problems with your configuration,
|
|
|
:hg:`config --debug` can help you understand what is introducing
|
|
|
a setting into your environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
See :hg:`help config.syntax` and :hg:`help config.files`
|
|
|
for information about how and where to override things.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Structure
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
The configuration files use a simple ini-file format. A configuration
|
|
|
file consists of sections, led by a ``[section]`` header and followed
|
|
|
by ``name = value`` entries::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ui]
|
|
|
username = Firstname Lastname <firstname.lastname@example.net>
|
|
|
verbose = True
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above entries will be referred to as ``ui.username`` and
|
|
|
``ui.verbose``, respectively. See :hg:`help config.syntax`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Files
|
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mercurial reads configuration data from several files, if they exist.
|
|
|
These files do not exist by default and you will have to create the
|
|
|
appropriate configuration files yourself:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Local configuration is put into the per-repository ``<repo>/.hg/hgrc`` file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Global configuration like the username setting is typically put into:
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ``%USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini`` (on Windows)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: unix.plan9
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ``$HOME/.hgrc`` (on Unix, Plan9)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The names of these files depend on the system on which Mercurial is
|
|
|
installed. ``*.rc`` files from a single directory are read in
|
|
|
alphabetical order, later ones overriding earlier ones. Where multiple
|
|
|
paths are given below, settings from earlier paths override later
|
|
|
ones.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: verbose.unix
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Unix, the following files are consulted:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ``<repo>/.hg/hgrc`` (per-repository)
|
|
|
- ``$HOME/.hgrc`` (per-user)
|
|
|
- ``<install-root>/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``<install-root>/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` (per-system)
|
|
|
- ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` (per-system)
|
|
|
- ``<internal>/default.d/*.rc`` (defaults)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: verbose.windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows, the following files are consulted:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ``<repo>/.hg/hgrc`` (per-repository)
|
|
|
- ``%USERPROFILE%\.hgrc`` (per-user)
|
|
|
- ``%USERPROFILE%\Mercurial.ini`` (per-user)
|
|
|
- ``%HOME%\.hgrc`` (per-user)
|
|
|
- ``%HOME%\Mercurial.ini`` (per-user)
|
|
|
- ``HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mercurial`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``<install-dir>\hgrc.d\*.rc`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``<install-dir>\Mercurial.ini`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``<internal>/default.d/*.rc`` (defaults)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
The registry key ``HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Mercurial``
|
|
|
is used when running 32-bit Python on 64-bit Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows 9x, ``%HOME%`` is replaced by ``%APPDATA%``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: verbose.plan9
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Plan9, the following files are consulted:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- ``<repo>/.hg/hgrc`` (per-repository)
|
|
|
- ``$home/lib/hgrc`` (per-user)
|
|
|
- ``<install-root>/lib/mercurial/hgrc`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``<install-root>/lib/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` (per-installation)
|
|
|
- ``/lib/mercurial/hgrc`` (per-system)
|
|
|
- ``/lib/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` (per-system)
|
|
|
- ``<internal>/default.d/*.rc`` (defaults)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Per-repository configuration options only apply in a
|
|
|
particular repository. This file is not version-controlled, and
|
|
|
will not get transferred during a "clone" operation. Options in
|
|
|
this file override options in all other configuration files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: unix.plan9
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Plan 9 and Unix, most of this file will be ignored if it doesn't
|
|
|
belong to a trusted user or to a trusted group. See
|
|
|
:hg:`help config.trusted` for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Per-user configuration file(s) are for the user running Mercurial. Options
|
|
|
in these files apply to all Mercurial commands executed by this user in any
|
|
|
directory. Options in these files override per-system and per-installation
|
|
|
options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Per-installation configuration files are searched for in the
|
|
|
directory where Mercurial is installed. ``<install-root>`` is the
|
|
|
parent directory of the **hg** executable (or symlink) being run.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: unix.plan9
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, if installed in ``/shared/tools/bin/hg``, Mercurial
|
|
|
will look in ``/shared/tools/etc/mercurial/hgrc``. Options in these
|
|
|
files apply to all Mercurial commands executed by any user in any
|
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Per-installation configuration files are for the system on
|
|
|
which Mercurial is running. Options in these files apply to all
|
|
|
Mercurial commands executed by any user in any directory. Registry
|
|
|
keys contain PATH-like strings, every part of which must reference
|
|
|
a ``Mercurial.ini`` file or be a directory where ``*.rc`` files will
|
|
|
be read. Mercurial checks each of these locations in the specified
|
|
|
order until one or more configuration files are detected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Per-system configuration files are for the system on which Mercurial
|
|
|
is running. Options in these files apply to all Mercurial commands
|
|
|
executed by any user in any directory. Options in these files
|
|
|
override per-installation options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mercurial comes with some default configuration. The default configuration
|
|
|
files are installed with Mercurial and will be overwritten on upgrades. Default
|
|
|
configuration files should never be edited by users or administrators but can
|
|
|
be overridden in other configuration files. So far the directory only contains
|
|
|
merge tool configuration but packagers can also put other default configuration
|
|
|
there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Syntax
|
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
|
|
A configuration file consists of sections, led by a ``[section]`` header
|
|
|
and followed by ``name = value`` entries (sometimes called
|
|
|
``configuration keys``)::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[spam]
|
|
|
eggs=ham
|
|
|
green=
|
|
|
eggs
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each line contains one entry. If the lines that follow are indented,
|
|
|
they are treated as continuations of that entry. Leading whitespace is
|
|
|
removed from values. Empty lines are skipped. Lines beginning with
|
|
|
``#`` or ``;`` are ignored and may be used to provide comments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration keys can be set multiple times, in which case Mercurial
|
|
|
will use the value that was configured last. As an example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[spam]
|
|
|
eggs=large
|
|
|
ham=serrano
|
|
|
eggs=small
|
|
|
|
|
|
This would set the configuration key named ``eggs`` to ``small``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to define a section multiple times. A section can
|
|
|
be redefined on the same and/or on different configuration files. For
|
|
|
example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[foo]
|
|
|
eggs=large
|
|
|
ham=serrano
|
|
|
eggs=small
|
|
|
|
|
|
[bar]
|
|
|
eggs=ham
|
|
|
green=
|
|
|
eggs
|
|
|
|
|
|
[foo]
|
|
|
ham=prosciutto
|
|
|
eggs=medium
|
|
|
bread=toasted
|
|
|
|
|
|
This would set the ``eggs``, ``ham``, and ``bread`` configuration keys
|
|
|
of the ``foo`` section to ``medium``, ``prosciutto``, and ``toasted``,
|
|
|
respectively. As you can see there only thing that matters is the last
|
|
|
value that was set for each of the configuration keys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a configuration key is set multiple times in different
|
|
|
configuration files the final value will depend on the order in which
|
|
|
the different configuration files are read, with settings from earlier
|
|
|
paths overriding later ones as described on the ``Files`` section
|
|
|
above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A line of the form ``%include file`` will include ``file`` into the
|
|
|
current configuration file. The inclusion is recursive, which means
|
|
|
that included files can include other files. Filenames are relative to
|
|
|
the configuration file in which the ``%include`` directive is found.
|
|
|
Environment variables and ``~user`` constructs are expanded in
|
|
|
``file``. This lets you do something like::
|
|
|
|
|
|
%include ~/.hgrc.d/$HOST.rc
|
|
|
|
|
|
to include a different configuration file on each computer you use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A line with ``%unset name`` will remove ``name`` from the current
|
|
|
section, if it has been set previously.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The values are either free-form text strings, lists of text strings,
|
|
|
or Boolean values. Boolean values can be set to true using any of "1",
|
|
|
"yes", "true", or "on" and to false using "0", "no", "false", or "off"
|
|
|
(all case insensitive).
|
|
|
|
|
|
List values are separated by whitespace or comma, except when values are
|
|
|
placed in double quotation marks::
|
|
|
|
|
|
allow_read = "John Doe, PhD", brian, betty
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quotation marks can be escaped by prefixing them with a backslash. Only
|
|
|
quotation marks at the beginning of a word is counted as a quotation
|
|
|
(e.g., ``foo"bar baz`` is the list of ``foo"bar`` and ``baz``).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sections
|
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section describes the different sections that may appear in a
|
|
|
Mercurial configuration file, the purpose of each section, its possible
|
|
|
keys, and their possible values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``alias``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defines command aliases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aliases allow you to define your own commands in terms of other
|
|
|
commands (or aliases), optionally including arguments. Positional
|
|
|
arguments in the form of ``$1``, ``$2``, etc. in the alias definition
|
|
|
are expanded by Mercurial before execution. Positional arguments not
|
|
|
already used by ``$N`` in the definition are put at the end of the
|
|
|
command to be executed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alias definitions consist of lines of the form::
|
|
|
|
|
|
<alias> = <command> [<argument>]...
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, this definition::
|
|
|
|
|
|
latest = log --limit 5
|
|
|
|
|
|
creates a new command ``latest`` that shows only the five most recent
|
|
|
changesets. You can define subsequent aliases using earlier ones::
|
|
|
|
|
|
stable5 = latest -b stable
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to create aliases with the same names as
|
|
|
existing commands, which will then override the original
|
|
|
definitions. This is almost always a bad idea!
|
|
|
|
|
|
An alias can start with an exclamation point (``!``) to make it a
|
|
|
shell alias. A shell alias is executed with the shell and will let you
|
|
|
run arbitrary commands. As an example, ::
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo = !echo $@
|
|
|
|
|
|
will let you do ``hg echo foo`` to have ``foo`` printed in your
|
|
|
terminal. A better example might be::
|
|
|
|
|
|
purge = !$HG status --no-status --unknown -0 re: | xargs -0 rm
|
|
|
|
|
|
which will make ``hg purge`` delete all unknown files in the
|
|
|
repository in the same manner as the purge extension.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Positional arguments like ``$1``, ``$2``, etc. in the alias definition
|
|
|
expand to the command arguments. Unmatched arguments are
|
|
|
removed. ``$0`` expands to the alias name and ``$@`` expands to all
|
|
|
arguments separated by a space. ``"$@"`` (with quotes) expands to all
|
|
|
arguments quoted individually and separated by a space. These expansions
|
|
|
happen before the command is passed to the shell.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shell aliases are executed in an environment where ``$HG`` expands to
|
|
|
the path of the Mercurial that was used to execute the alias. This is
|
|
|
useful when you want to call further Mercurial commands in a shell
|
|
|
alias, as was done above for the purge alias. In addition,
|
|
|
``$HG_ARGS`` expands to the arguments given to Mercurial. In the ``hg
|
|
|
echo foo`` call above, ``$HG_ARGS`` would expand to ``echo foo``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some global configuration options such as ``-R`` are
|
|
|
processed before shell aliases and will thus not be passed to
|
|
|
aliases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``annotate``
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings used when displaying file annotations. All values are
|
|
|
Booleans and default to False. See :hg:`help config.diff` for
|
|
|
related options for the diff command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignorews``
|
|
|
Ignore white space when comparing lines.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignorewsamount``
|
|
|
Ignore changes in the amount of white space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignoreblanklines``
|
|
|
Ignore changes whose lines are all blank.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``auth``
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Authentication credentials for HTTP authentication. This section
|
|
|
allows you to store usernames and passwords for use when logging
|
|
|
*into* HTTP servers. See :hg:`help config.web` if
|
|
|
you want to configure *who* can login to your HTTP server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each line has the following format::
|
|
|
|
|
|
<name>.<argument> = <value>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where ``<name>`` is used to group arguments into authentication
|
|
|
entries. Example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
foo.prefix = hg.intevation.de/mercurial
|
|
|
foo.username = foo
|
|
|
foo.password = bar
|
|
|
foo.schemes = http https
|
|
|
|
|
|
bar.prefix = secure.example.org
|
|
|
bar.key = path/to/file.key
|
|
|
bar.cert = path/to/file.cert
|
|
|
bar.schemes = https
|
|
|
|
|
|
Supported arguments:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``prefix``
|
|
|
Either ``*`` or a URI prefix with or without the scheme part.
|
|
|
The authentication entry with the longest matching prefix is used
|
|
|
(where ``*`` matches everything and counts as a match of length
|
|
|
1). If the prefix doesn't include a scheme, the match is performed
|
|
|
against the URI with its scheme stripped as well, and the schemes
|
|
|
argument, q.v., is then subsequently consulted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``username``
|
|
|
Optional. Username to authenticate with. If not given, and the
|
|
|
remote site requires basic or digest authentication, the user will
|
|
|
be prompted for it. Environment variables are expanded in the
|
|
|
username letting you do ``foo.username = $USER``. If the URI
|
|
|
includes a username, only ``[auth]`` entries with a matching
|
|
|
username or without a username will be considered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``password``
|
|
|
Optional. Password to authenticate with. If not given, and the
|
|
|
remote site requires basic or digest authentication, the user
|
|
|
will be prompted for it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``key``
|
|
|
Optional. PEM encoded client certificate key file. Environment
|
|
|
variables are expanded in the filename.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``cert``
|
|
|
Optional. PEM encoded client certificate chain file. Environment
|
|
|
variables are expanded in the filename.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``schemes``
|
|
|
Optional. Space separated list of URI schemes to use this
|
|
|
authentication entry with. Only used if the prefix doesn't include
|
|
|
a scheme. Supported schemes are http and https. They will match
|
|
|
static-http and static-https respectively, as well.
|
|
|
(default: https)
|
|
|
|
|
|
If no suitable authentication entry is found, the user is prompted
|
|
|
for credentials as usual if required by the remote.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``committemplate``
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
``changeset``
|
|
|
String: configuration in this section is used as the template to
|
|
|
customize the text shown in the editor when committing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to pre-defined template keywords, commit log specific one
|
|
|
below can be used for customization:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``extramsg``
|
|
|
String: Extra message (typically 'Leave message empty to abort
|
|
|
commit.'). This may be changed by some commands or extensions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, the template configuration below shows as same text as
|
|
|
one shown by default::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[committemplate]
|
|
|
changeset = {desc}\n\n
|
|
|
HG: Enter commit message. Lines beginning with 'HG:' are removed.
|
|
|
HG: {extramsg}
|
|
|
HG: --
|
|
|
HG: user: {author}\n{ifeq(p2rev, "-1", "",
|
|
|
"HG: branch merge\n")
|
|
|
}HG: branch '{branch}'\n{if(activebookmark,
|
|
|
"HG: bookmark '{activebookmark}'\n") }{subrepos %
|
|
|
"HG: subrepo {subrepo}\n" }{file_adds %
|
|
|
"HG: added {file}\n" }{file_mods %
|
|
|
"HG: changed {file}\n" }{file_dels %
|
|
|
"HG: removed {file}\n" }{if(files, "",
|
|
|
"HG: no files changed\n")}
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
For some problematic encodings (see :hg:`help win32mbcs` for
|
|
|
detail), this customization should be configured carefully, to
|
|
|
avoid showing broken characters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, if a multibyte character ending with backslash (0x5c) is
|
|
|
followed by the ASCII character 'n' in the customized template,
|
|
|
the sequence of backslash and 'n' is treated as line-feed unexpectedly
|
|
|
(and the multibyte character is broken, too).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Customized template is used for commands below (``--edit`` may be
|
|
|
required):
|
|
|
|
|
|
- :hg:`backout`
|
|
|
- :hg:`commit`
|
|
|
- :hg:`fetch` (for merge commit only)
|
|
|
- :hg:`graft`
|
|
|
- :hg:`histedit`
|
|
|
- :hg:`import`
|
|
|
- :hg:`qfold`, :hg:`qnew` and :hg:`qrefresh`
|
|
|
- :hg:`rebase`
|
|
|
- :hg:`shelve`
|
|
|
- :hg:`sign`
|
|
|
- :hg:`tag`
|
|
|
- :hg:`transplant`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuring items below instead of ``changeset`` allows showing
|

These dot-separated lists of names are treated as hierarchical ones.
|
|
|
For example, ``changeset.tag.remove`` customizes the commit message
|
|
|
only for :hg:`tag --remove`, but ``changeset.tag`` customizes the
|
|
|
commit message for :hg:`tag` regardless of ``--remove`` option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the external editor is invoked for a commit, the corresponding
|
|
|
dot-separated list of names without the ``changeset.`` prefix
|
|
|
(e.g. ``commit.normal.normal``) is in the ``HGEDITFORM`` environment
|
|
|
variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this section, items other than ``changeset`` can be referred from
|
|
|
others. For example, the configuration to list committed files up
|
|
|
below can be referred as ``{listupfiles}``::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[committemplate]
|
|
|
listupfiles = {file_adds %
|
|
|
"HG: added {file}\n" }{file_mods %
|
|
|
"HG: changed {file}\n" }{file_dels %
|
|
|
"HG: removed {file}\n" }{if(files, "",
|
|
|
"HG: no files changed\n")}
|
|
|
|
|
|
``decode/encode``
|
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Filters for transforming files on checkout/checkin. This would
|
|
|
typically be used for newline processing or other
|
|
|
localization/canonicalization of files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Filters consist of a filter pattern followed by a filter command.
|
|
|
Filter patterns are globs by default, rooted at the repository root.
|
|
|
For example, to match any file ending in ``.txt`` in the root
|
|
|
directory only, use the pattern ``*.txt``. To match any file ending
|
|
|
in ``.c`` anywhere in the repository, use the pattern ``**.c``.
|
|
|
For each file only the first matching filter applies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The filter command can start with a specifier, either ``pipe:`` or
|
|
|
``tempfile:``. If no specifier is given, ``pipe:`` is used by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A ``pipe:`` command must accept data on stdin and return the transformed
|
|
|
data on stdout.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pipe example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[encode]
|
|
|
# uncompress gzip files on checkin to improve delta compression
|
|
|
# note: not necessarily a good idea, just an example
|
|
|
*.gz = pipe: gunzip
|
|
|
|
|
|
[decode]
|
|
|
# recompress gzip files when writing them to the working dir (we
|
|
|
# can safely omit "pipe:", because it's the default)
|
|
|
*.gz = gzip
|
|
|
|
|
|
A ``tempfile:`` command is a template. The string ``INFILE`` is replaced
|
|
|
with the name of a temporary file that contains the data to be
|
|
|
filtered by the command. The string ``OUTFILE`` is replaced with the name
|
|
|
of an empty temporary file, where the filtered data must be written by
|
|
|
the command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
The tempfile mechanism is recommended for Windows systems,
|
|
|
where the standard shell I/O redirection operators often have
|
|
|
strange effects and may corrupt the contents of your files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This filter mechanism is used internally by the ``eol`` extension to
|
|
|
translate line ending characters between Windows (CRLF) and Unix (LF)
|
|
|
format. We suggest you use the ``eol`` extension for convenience.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``defaults``
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
(defaults are deprecated. Don't use them. Use aliases instead.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the ``[defaults]`` section to define command defaults, i.e. the
|
|
|
default options/arguments to pass to the specified commands.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following example makes :hg:`log` run in verbose mode, and
|
|
|
:hg:`status` show only the modified files, by default::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[defaults]
|
|
|
log = -v
|
|
|
status = -m
|
|
|
|
|
|
The actual commands, instead of their aliases, must be used when
|
|
|
defining command defaults. The command defaults will also be applied
|
|
|
to the aliases of the commands defined.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``diff``
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings used when displaying diffs. Everything except for ``unified``
|
|
|
is a Boolean and defaults to False. See :hg:`help config.annotate`
|
|
|
for related options for the annotate command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``git``
|
|
|
Use git extended diff format.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``nobinary``
|
|
|
Omit git binary patches.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``nodates``
|
|
|
Don't include dates in diff headers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``noprefix``
|
|
|
Omit 'a/' and 'b/' prefixes from filenames. Ignored in plain mode.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``showfunc``
|
|
|
Show which function each change is in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignorews``
|
|
|
Ignore white space when comparing lines.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignorewsamount``
|
|
|
Ignore changes in the amount of white space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignoreblanklines``
|
|
|
Ignore changes whose lines are all blank.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``unified``
|
|
|
Number of lines of context to show.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``email``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings for extensions that send email messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``from``
|
|
|
Optional. Email address to use in "From" header and SMTP envelope
|
|
|
of outgoing messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``to``
|
|
|
Optional. Comma-separated list of recipients' email addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``cc``
|
|
|
Optional. Comma-separated list of carbon copy recipients'
|
|
|
email addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bcc``
|
|
|
Optional. Comma-separated list of blind carbon copy recipients'
|
|
|
email addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``method``
|
|
|
Optional. Method to use to send email messages. If value is ``smtp``
|
|
|
(default), use SMTP (see the ``[smtp]`` section for configuration).
|
|
|
Otherwise, use as name of program to run that acts like sendmail
|
|
|
(takes ``-f`` option for sender, list of recipients on command line,
|
|
|
message on stdin). Normally, setting this to ``sendmail`` or
|
|
|
``/usr/sbin/sendmail`` is enough to use sendmail to send messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``charsets``
|
|
|
Optional. Comma-separated list of character sets considered
|
|
|
convenient for recipients. Addresses, headers, and parts not
|
|
|
containing patches of outgoing messages will be encoded in the
|
|
|
first character set to which conversion from local encoding
|
|
|
(``$HGENCODING``, ``ui.fallbackencoding``) succeeds. If correct
|
|
|
conversion fails, the text in question is sent as is.
|
|
|
(default: '')
|
|
|
|
|
|
Order of outgoing email character sets:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. ``us-ascii``: always first, regardless of settings
|
|
|
2. ``email.charsets``: in order given by user
|
|
|
3. ``ui.fallbackencoding``: if not in email.charsets
|
|
|
4. ``$HGENCODING``: if not in email.charsets
|
|
|
5. ``utf-8``: always last, regardless of settings
|
|
|
|
|
|
Email example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[email]
|
|
|
from = Joseph User <joe.user@example.com>
|
|
|
method = /usr/sbin/sendmail
|
|
|
# charsets for western Europeans
|
|
|
# us-ascii, utf-8 omitted, as they are tried first and last
|
|
|
charsets = iso-8859-1, iso-8859-15, windows-1252
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``extensions``
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mercurial has an extension mechanism for adding new features. To
|
|
|
enable an extension, create an entry for it in this section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you know that the extension is already in Python's search path,
|
|
|
you can give the name of the module, followed by ``=``, with nothing
|
|
|
after the ``=``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, give a name that you choose, followed by ``=``, followed by
|
|
|
the path to the ``.py`` file (including the file name extension) that
|
|
|
defines the extension.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To explicitly disable an extension that is enabled in an hgrc of
|
|
|
broader scope, prepend its path with ``!``, as in ``foo = !/ext/path``
|
|
|
or ``foo = !`` when path is not supplied.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example for ``~/.hgrc``::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[extensions]
|
|
|
# (the color extension will get loaded from Mercurial's path)
|
|
|
color =
|
|
|
# (this extension will get loaded from the file specified)
|
|
|
myfeature = ~/.hgext/myfeature.py
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``format``
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
``usegeneraldelta``
|
|
|
Enable or disable the "generaldelta" repository format which improves
|
|
|
repository compression by allowing "revlog" to store delta against arbitrary
|
|
|
revision instead of the previous stored one. This provides significant
|
|
|
improvement for repositories with branches.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repositories with this on-disk format require Mercurial version 1.9.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``dotencode``
|
|
|
Enable or disable the "dotencode" repository format which enhances
|
|
|
the "fncache" repository format (which has to be enabled to use
|
|
|
dotencode) to avoid issues with filenames starting with ._ on
|
|
|
Mac OS X and spaces on Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repositories with this on-disk format require Mercurial version 1.7.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``usefncache``
|
|
|
Enable or disable the "fncache" repository format which enhances
|
|
|
the "store" repository format (which has to be enabled to use
|
|
|
fncache) to allow longer filenames and avoids using Windows
|
|
|
reserved names, e.g. "nul".
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repositories with this on-disk format require Mercurial version 1.1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``usestore``
|
|
|
Enable or disable the "store" repository format which improves
|
|
|
compatibility with systems that fold case or otherwise mangle
|
|
|
filenames. Disabling this option will allow you to store longer filenames
|
|
|
in some situations at the expense of compatibility.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repositories with this on-disk format require Mercurial version 0.9.4.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``graph``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Web graph view configuration. This section let you change graph
|
|
|
elements display properties by branches, for instance to make the
|
|
|
``default`` branch stand out.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each line has the following format::
|
|
|
|
|
|
<branch>.<argument> = <value>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where ``<branch>`` is the name of the branch being
|
|
|
customized. Example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[graph]
|
|
|
# 2px width
|
|
|
default.width = 2
|
|
|
# red color
|
|
|
default.color = FF0000
|
|
|
|
|
|
Supported arguments:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``width``
|
|
|
Set branch edges width in pixels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``color``
|
|
|
Set branch edges color in hexadecimal RGB notation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``hooks``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Commands or Python functions that get automatically executed by
|
|
|
various actions such as starting or finishing a commit. Multiple
|
|
|
hooks can be run for the same action by appending a suffix to the
|
|
|
action. Overriding a site-wide hook can be done by changing its
|
|
|
value or setting it to an empty string. Hooks can be prioritized
|
|
|
by adding a prefix of ``priority.`` to the hook name on a new line
|
|
|
and setting the priority. The default priority is 0.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example ``.hg/hgrc``::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[hooks]
|
|
|
# update working directory after adding changesets
|
|
|
changegroup.update = hg update
|
|
|
# do not use the site-wide hook
|
|
|
incoming =
|
|
|
incoming.email = /my/email/hook
|
|
|
incoming.autobuild = /my/build/hook
|
|
|
# force autobuild hook to run before other incoming hooks
|
|
|
priority.incoming.autobuild = 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most hooks are run with environment variables set that give useful
|
|
|
additional information. For each hook below, the environment
|
|
|
variables it is passed are listed with names of the form ``$HG_foo``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``changegroup``
|
|
|
Run after a changegroup has been added via push, pull or unbundle. ID of the
|
|
|
first new changeset is in ``$HG_NODE`` and last in ``$HG_NODE_LAST``. URL
|
|
|
from which changes came is in ``$HG_URL``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``commit``
|
|
|
Run after a changeset has been created in the local repository. ID
|
|
|
of the newly created changeset is in ``$HG_NODE``. Parent changeset
|
|
|
IDs are in ``$HG_PARENT1`` and ``$HG_PARENT2``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``incoming``
|
|
|
Run after a changeset has been pulled, pushed, or unbundled into
|
|
|
the local repository. The ID of the newly arrived changeset is in
|
|
|
``$HG_NODE``. URL that was source of changes came is in ``$HG_URL``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``outgoing``
|
|
|
Run after sending changes from local repository to another. ID of
|
|
|
first changeset sent is in ``$HG_NODE``. Source of operation is in
|
|
|
``$HG_SOURCE``; Also see :hg:`help config.hooks.preoutgoing` hook.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``post-<command>``
|
|
|
Run after successful invocations of the associated command. The
|
|
|
contents of the command line are passed as ``$HG_ARGS`` and the result
|
|
|
code in ``$HG_RESULT``. Parsed command line arguments are passed as
|
|
|
``$HG_PATS`` and ``$HG_OPTS``. These contain string representations of
|
|
|
the python data internally passed to <command>. ``$HG_OPTS`` is a
|
|
|
dictionary of options (with unspecified options set to their defaults).
|
|
|
``$HG_PATS`` is a list of arguments. Hook failure is ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pre-<command>``
|
|
|
Run before executing the associated command. The contents of the
|
|
|
command line are passed as ``$HG_ARGS``. Parsed command line arguments
|
|
|
are passed as ``$HG_PATS`` and ``$HG_OPTS``. These contain string
|
|
|
representations of the data internally passed to <command>. ``$HG_OPTS``
|
|
|
is a dictionary of options (with unspecified options set to their
|
|
|
defaults). ``$HG_PATS`` is a list of arguments. If the hook returns
|
|
|
failure, the command doesn't execute and Mercurial returns the failure
|
|
|
code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``prechangegroup``
|
|
|
Run before a changegroup is added via push, pull or unbundle. Exit
|
|
|
status 0 allows the changegroup to proceed. Non-zero status will
|
|
|
cause the push, pull or unbundle to fail. URL from which changes
|
|
|
will come is in ``$HG_URL``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``precommit``
|
|
|
Run before starting a local commit. Exit status 0 allows the
|
|
|
commit to proceed. Non-zero status will cause the commit to fail.
|
|
|
Parent changeset IDs are in ``$HG_PARENT1`` and ``$HG_PARENT2``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``prelistkeys``
|
|
|
Run before listing pushkeys (like bookmarks) in the
|
|
|
repository. Non-zero status will cause failure. The key namespace is
|
|
|
in ``$HG_NAMESPACE``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``preoutgoing``
|
|
|
Run before collecting changes to send from the local repository to
|
|
|
another. Non-zero status will cause failure. This lets you prevent
|
|
|
pull over HTTP or SSH. Also prevents against local pull, push
|
|
|
(outbound) or bundle commands, but not effective, since you can
|
|
|
just copy files instead then. Source of operation is in
|
|
|
``$HG_SOURCE``. If "serve", operation is happening on behalf of remote
|
|
|
SSH or HTTP repository. If "push", "pull" or "bundle", operation
|
|
|
is happening on behalf of repository on same system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``prepushkey``
|
|
|
Run before a pushkey (like a bookmark) is added to the
|
|
|
repository. Non-zero status will cause the key to be rejected. The
|
|
|
key namespace is in ``$HG_NAMESPACE``, the key is in ``$HG_KEY``,
|
|
|
the old value (if any) is in ``$HG_OLD``, and the new value is in
|
|
|
``$HG_NEW``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pretag``
|
|
|
Run before creating a tag. Exit status 0 allows the tag to be
|
|
|
created. Non-zero status will cause the tag to fail. ID of
|
|
|
changeset to tag is in ``$HG_NODE``. Name of tag is in ``$HG_TAG``. Tag is
|
|
|
local if ``$HG_LOCAL=1``, in repository if ``$HG_LOCAL=0``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pretxnopen``
|
|
|
Run before any new repository transaction is open. The reason for the
|
|
|
transaction will be in ``$HG_TXNNAME`` and a unique identifier for the
|
|
|
transaction will be in ``HG_TXNID``. A non-zero status will prevent the
|
|
|
transaction from being opened.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pretxnclose``
|
|
|
Run right before the transaction is actually finalized. Any repository change
|
|
|
will be visible to the hook program. This lets you validate the transaction
|
|
|
content or change it. Exit status 0 allows the commit to proceed. Non-zero
|
|
|
status will cause the transaction to be rolled back. The reason for the
|
|
|
transaction opening will be in ``$HG_TXNNAME`` and a unique identifier for
|
|
|
the transaction will be in ``HG_TXNID``. The rest of the available data will
|
|
|
vary according the transaction type. New changesets will add ``$HG_NODE`` (id
|
|
|
of the first added changeset), ``$HG_NODE_LAST`` (id of the last added
|
|
|
changeset), ``$HG_URL`` and ``$HG_SOURCE`` variables, bookmarks and phases
|
|
|
changes will set ``HG_BOOKMARK_MOVED`` and ``HG_PHASES_MOVED`` to ``1``, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``txnclose``
|
|
|
Run after any repository transaction has been committed. At this
|
|
|
point, the transaction can no longer be rolled back. The hook will run
|
|
|
after the lock is released. See :hg:`help config.hooks.pretxnclose` docs for
|
|
|
details about available variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``txnabort``
|
|
|
Run when a transaction is aborted. See :hg:`help config.hooks.pretxnclose`
|
|
|
docs for details about available variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pretxnchangegroup``
|
|
|
Run after a changegroup has been added via push, pull or unbundle, but before
|
|
|
the transaction has been committed. Changegroup is visible to hook program.
|
|
|
This lets you validate incoming changes before accepting them. Passed the ID
|
|
|
of the first new changeset in ``$HG_NODE`` and last in ``$HG_NODE_LAST``.
|
|
|
Exit status 0 allows the transaction to commit. Non-zero status will cause
|
|
|
the transaction to be rolled back and the push, pull or unbundle will fail.
|
|
|
URL that was source of changes is in ``$HG_URL``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pretxncommit``
|
|
|
Run after a changeset has been created but the transaction not yet
|
|
|
committed. Changeset is visible to hook program. This lets you
|
|
|
validate commit message and changes. Exit status 0 allows the
|
|
|
commit to proceed. Non-zero status will cause the transaction to
|
|
|
be rolled back. ID of changeset is in ``$HG_NODE``. Parent changeset
|
|
|
IDs are in ``$HG_PARENT1`` and ``$HG_PARENT2``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``preupdate``
|
|
|
Run before updating the working directory. Exit status 0 allows
|
|
|
the update to proceed. Non-zero status will prevent the update.
|
|
|
Changeset ID of first new parent is in ``$HG_PARENT1``. If merge, ID
|
|
|
of second new parent is in ``$HG_PARENT2``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``listkeys``
|
|
|
Run after listing pushkeys (like bookmarks) in the repository. The
|
|
|
key namespace is in ``$HG_NAMESPACE``. ``$HG_VALUES`` is a
|
|
|
dictionary containing the keys and values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pushkey``
|
|
|
Run after a pushkey (like a bookmark) is added to the
|
|
|
repository. The key namespace is in ``$HG_NAMESPACE``, the key is in
|
|
|
``$HG_KEY``, the old value (if any) is in ``$HG_OLD``, and the new
|
|
|
value is in ``$HG_NEW``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``tag``
|
|
|
Run after a tag is created. ID of tagged changeset is in ``$HG_NODE``.
|
|
|
Name of tag is in ``$HG_TAG``. Tag is local if ``$HG_LOCAL=1``, in
|
|
|
repository if ``$HG_LOCAL=0``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``update``
|
|
|
Run after updating the working directory. Changeset ID of first
|
|
|
new parent is in ``$HG_PARENT1``. If merge, ID of second new parent is
|
|
|
in ``$HG_PARENT2``. If the update succeeded, ``$HG_ERROR=0``. If the
|
|
|
update failed (e.g. because conflicts not resolved), ``$HG_ERROR=1``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is generally better to use standard hooks rather than the
|
|
|
generic pre- and post- command hooks as they are guaranteed to be
|
|
|
called in the appropriate contexts for influencing transactions.
|
|
|
Also, hooks like "commit" will be called in all contexts that
|
|
|
generate a commit (e.g. tag) and not just the commit command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
|
|
Environment variables with empty values may not be passed to
|
|
|
hooks on platforms such as Windows. As an example, ``$HG_PARENT2``
|
|
|
will have an empty value under Unix-like platforms for non-merge
|
|
|
changesets, while it will not be available at all under Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The syntax for Python hooks is as follows::
|
|
|
|
|
|
hookname = python:modulename.submodule.callable
|
|
|
hookname = python:/path/to/python/module.py:callable
|
|
|
|
|
|
Python hooks are run within the Mercurial process. Each hook is
|
|
|
called with at least three keyword arguments: a ui object (keyword
|
|
|
``ui``), a repository object (keyword ``repo``), and a ``hooktype``
|
|
|
keyword that tells what kind of hook is used. Arguments listed as
|
|
|
environment variables above are passed as keyword arguments, with no
|
|
|
``HG_`` prefix, and names in lower case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a Python hook returns a "true" value or raises an exception, this
|
|
|
is treated as a failure.

``hostfingerprints``
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fingerprints of the certificates of known HTTPS servers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A HTTPS connection to a server with a fingerprint configured here will
|
|
|
only succeed if the servers certificate matches the fingerprint.
|
|
|
This is very similar to how ssh known hosts works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The fingerprint is the SHA-1 hash value of the DER encoded certificate.
|
|
|
Multiple values can be specified (separated by spaces or commas). This can
|
|
|
be used to define both old and new fingerprints while a host transitions
|
|
|
to a new certificate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CA chain and web.cacerts is not used for servers with a fingerprint.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[hostfingerprints]
|
|
|
hg.intevation.de = fc:e2:8d:d9:51:cd:cb:c1:4d:18:6b:b7:44:8d:49:72:57:e6:cd:33
|
|
|
hg.intevation.org = fc:e2:8d:d9:51:cd:cb:c1:4d:18:6b:b7:44:8d:49:72:57:e6:cd:33
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature is only supported when using Python 2.6 or later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``http_proxy``
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
proxy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``host``
|
|
|
Host name and (optional) port of the proxy server, for example
|
|
|
"myproxy:8000".
|
|
|
|
|
|
``no``
|
|
|
Optional. Comma-separated list of host names that should bypass
|
|
|
the proxy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``passwd``
|
|
|
Optional. Password to authenticate with at the proxy server.

``user``
|
|
|
Optional. User name to authenticate with at the proxy server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``always``
|
|
|
Optional. Always use the proxy, even for localhost and any entries
|
|
|
in ``http_proxy.no``. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``merge``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section specifies behavior during merges and updates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``checkignored``
|
|
|
Controls behavior when an ignored file on disk has the same name as a tracked
|
|
|
file in the changeset being merged or updated to, and has different
|
|
|
contents. Options are ``abort``, ``warn`` and ``ignore``. With ``abort``,
|
|
|
abort on such files. With ``warn``, warn on such files and back them up as
|
|
|
.orig. With ``ignore``, don't print a warning and back them up as
|
|
|
.orig. (default: ``abort``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``checkunknown``
|
|
|
Controls behavior when an unknown file that isn't ignored has the same name
|
|
|
as a tracked file in the changeset being merged or updated to, and has
|
|
|
different contents. Similar to ``merge.checkignored``, except for files that
|
|
|
are not ignored. (default: ``abort``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``merge-patterns``
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section specifies merge tools to associate with particular file
|
|
|
patterns. Tools matched here will take precedence over the default
|
|
|
merge tool. Patterns are globs by default, rooted at the repository
|
|
|
root.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[merge-patterns]
|
|
|
**.c = kdiff3
|
|
|
**.jpg = myimgmerge
|
|
|
|
|
|
``merge-tools``
|
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section configures external merge tools to use for file-level
|
|
|
merges. This section has likely been preconfigured at install time.
|
|
|
Use :hg:`config merge-tools` to check the existing configuration.
|
|
|
Also see :hg:`help merge-tools` for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example ``~/.hgrc``::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[merge-tools]
|
|
|
# Override stock tool location
|
|
|
kdiff3.executable = ~/bin/kdiff3
|
|
|
# Specify command line
|
|
|
kdiff3.args = $base $local $other -o $output
|
|
|
# Give higher priority
|
|
|
kdiff3.priority = 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Changing the priority of preconfigured tool
|
|
|
meld.priority = 0
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Disable a preconfigured tool
|
|
|
vimdiff.disabled = yes
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Define new tool
|
|
|
myHtmlTool.args = -m $local $other $base $output
|
|
|
myHtmlTool.regkey = Software\FooSoftware\HtmlMerge
|
|
|
myHtmlTool.priority = 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
Supported arguments:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``priority``
|
|
|
The priority in which to evaluate this tool.
|
|
|
(default: 0)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``executable``
|
|
|
Either just the name of the executable or its pathname.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows, the path can use environment variables with ${ProgramFiles}
|
|
|
syntax.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default: the tool name)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``args``
|
|
|
The arguments to pass to the tool executable. You can refer to the
|
|
|
files being merged as well as the output file through these
|
|
|
variables: ``$base``, ``$local``, ``$other``, ``$output``. The meaning
|
|
|
of ``$local`` and ``$other`` can vary depending on which action is being
|
|
|
performed. During and update or merge, ``$local`` represents the original
|
|
|
state of the file, while ``$other`` represents the commit you are updating
|
|
|
to or the commit you are merging with. During a rebase ``$local``
|
|
|
represents the destination of the rebase, and ``$other`` represents the
|
|
|
commit being rebased.
|
|
|
(default: ``$local $base $other``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``premerge``
|
|
|
Attempt to run internal non-interactive 3-way merge tool before
|
|
|
launching external tool. Options are ``true``, ``false``, ``keep`` or
|
|
|
``keep-merge3``. The ``keep`` option will leave markers in the file if the
|
|
|
premerge fails. The ``keep-merge3`` will do the same but include information
|
|
|
about the base of the merge in the marker (see internal :merge3 in
|
|
|
:hg:`help merge-tools`).
|
|
|
(default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``binary``
|
|
|
This tool can merge binary files. (default: False, unless tool
|
|
|
was selected by file pattern match)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``symlink``
|
|
|
This tool can merge symlinks. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``check``
|
|
|
A list of merge success-checking options:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``changed``
|
|
|
Ask whether merge was successful when the merged file shows no changes.
|
|
|
``conflicts``
|
|
|
Check whether there are conflicts even though the tool reported success.
|
|
|
``prompt``
|
|
|
Always prompt for merge success, regardless of success reported by tool.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``fixeol``
|
|
|
Attempt to fix up EOL changes caused by the merge tool.
|
|
|
(default: False)

|
|
|
|
|
``gui``
|
|
|
This tool requires a graphical interface to run. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
``regkey``
|
|
|
Windows registry key which describes install location of this
|
|
|
tool. Mercurial will search for this key first under
|
|
|
``HKEY_CURRENT_USER`` and then under ``HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE``.
|
|
|
(default: None)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``regkeyalt``
|
|
|
An alternate Windows registry key to try if the first key is not
|
|
|
found. The alternate key uses the same ``regname`` and ``regappend``
|
|
|
semantics of the primary key. The most common use for this key
|
|
|
is to search for 32bit applications on 64bit operating systems.
|
|
|
(default: None)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``regname``
|
|
|
Name of value to read from specified registry key.
|
|
|
(default: the unnamed (default) value)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``regappend``
|
|
|
String to append to the value read from the registry, typically
|
|
|
the executable name of the tool.
|
|
|
(default: None)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``patch``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings used when applying patches, for instance through the 'import'
|
|
|
command or with Mercurial Queues extension.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``eol``
|
|
|
When set to 'strict' patch content and patched files end of lines
|
|
|
are preserved. When set to ``lf`` or ``crlf``, both files end of
|
|
|
lines are ignored when patching and the result line endings are
|
|
|
normalized to either LF (Unix) or CRLF (Windows). When set to
|
|
|
``auto``, end of lines are again ignored while patching but line
|
|
|
endings in patched files are normalized to their original setting
|
|
|
on a per-file basis. If target file does not exist or has no end
|
|
|
of line, patch line endings are preserved.
|
|
|
(default: strict)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``fuzz``
|
|
|
The number of lines of 'fuzz' to allow when applying patches. This
|
|
|
controls how much context the patcher is allowed to ignore when
|
|
|
trying to apply a patch.
|
|
|
(default: 2)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``paths``
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assigns symbolic names and behavior to repositories.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options are symbolic names defining the URL or directory that is the
|
|
|
location of the repository. Example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[paths]
|
|
|
my_server = https://example.com/my_repo
|
|
|
local_path = /home/me/repo
|
|
|
|
|
|
These symbolic names can be used from the command line. To pull
|
|
|
from ``my_server``: :hg:`pull my_server`. To push to ``local_path``:
|
|
|
:hg:`push local_path`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options containing colons (``:``) denote sub-options that can influence
|
|
|
behavior for that specific path. Example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[paths]
|
|
|
my_server = https://example.com/my_path
|
|
|
my_server:pushurl = ssh://example.com/my_path
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following sub-options can be defined:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``pushurl``
|
|
|
The URL to use for push operations. If not defined, the location
|
|
|
defined by the path's main entry is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following special named paths exist:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``default``
|
|
|
The URL or directory to use when no source or remote is specified.
|
|
|
|
|
|
:hg:`clone` will automatically define this path to the location the
|
|
|
repository was cloned from.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``default-push``
|
|
|
(deprecated) The URL or directory for the default :hg:`push` location.
|
|
|
``default:pushurl`` should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``phases``
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifies default handling of phases. See :hg:`help phases` for more
|
|
|
information about working with phases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``publish``
|
|
|
Controls draft phase behavior when working as a server. When true,
|
|
|
pushed changesets are set to public in both client and server and
|
|
|
pulled or cloned changesets are set to public in the client.
|
|
|
(default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``new-commit``
|
|
|
Phase of newly-created commits.
|
|
|
(default: draft)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``checksubrepos``
|
|
|
Check the phase of the current revision of each subrepository. Allowed
|
|
|
values are "ignore", "follow" and "abort". For settings other than
|
|
|
"ignore", the phase of the current revision of each subrepository is
|
|
|
checked before committing the parent repository. If any of those phases is
|
|
|
greater than the phase of the parent repository (e.g. if a subrepo is in a
|
|
|
"secret" phase while the parent repo is in "draft" phase), the commit is
|
|
|
either aborted (if checksubrepos is set to "abort") or the higher phase is
|
|
|
used for the parent repository commit (if set to "follow").
|
|
|
(default: follow)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``profiling``
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifies profiling type, format, and file output. Two profilers are
|
|
|
supported: an instrumenting profiler (named ``ls``), and a sampling
|
|
|
profiler (named ``stat``).
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this section description, 'profiling data' stands for the raw data
|
|
|
collected during profiling, while 'profiling report' stands for a
|
|
|
statistical text report generated from the profiling data. The
|
|
|
profiling is done using lsprof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``type``
|
|
|
The type of profiler to use.
|
|
|
(default: ls)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ls``
|
|
|
Use Python's built-in instrumenting profiler. This profiler
|
|
|
works on all platforms, but each line number it reports is the
|
|
|
first line of a function. This restriction makes it difficult to
|
|
|
identify the expensive parts of a non-trivial function.
|
|
|
``stat``
|
|
|
Use a third-party statistical profiler, statprof. This profiler
|
|
|
currently runs only on Unix systems, and is most useful for
|
|
|
profiling commands that run for longer than about 0.1 seconds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``format``
|
|
|
Profiling format. Specific to the ``ls`` instrumenting profiler.
|
|
|
(default: text)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``text``
|
|
|
Generate a profiling report. When saving to a file, it should be
|
|
|
noted that only the report is saved, and the profiling data is
|
|
|
not kept.
|
|
|
``kcachegrind``
|
|
|
Format profiling data for kcachegrind use: when saving to a
|
|
|
file, the generated file can directly be loaded into
|
|
|
kcachegrind.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``frequency``
|
|
|
Sampling frequency. Specific to the ``stat`` sampling profiler.
|
|
|
(default: 1000)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``output``
|
|
|
File path where profiling data or report should be saved. If the
|
|
|
file exists, it is replaced. (default: None, data is printed on
|
|
|
stderr)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``sort``
|
|
|
Sort field. Specific to the ``ls`` instrumenting profiler.
|
|
|
One of ``callcount``, ``reccallcount``, ``totaltime`` and
|
|
|
``inlinetime``.
|
|
|
(default: inlinetime)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``limit``
|
|
|
Number of lines to show. Specific to the ``ls`` instrumenting profiler.
|
|
|
(default: 30)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``nested``
|
|
|
Show at most this number of lines of drill-down info after each main entry.
|
|
|
This can help explain the difference between Total and Inline.
|
|
|
Specific to the ``ls`` instrumenting profiler.
|
|
|
(default: 5)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``progress``
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mercurial commands can draw progress bars that are as informative as
|
|
|
possible. Some progress bars only offer indeterminate information, while others
|
|
|
have a definite end point.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``delay``
|
|
|
Number of seconds (float) before showing the progress bar. (default: 3)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``changedelay``
|
|
|
Minimum delay before showing a new topic. When set to less than 3 * refresh,
|
|
|
that value will be used instead. (default: 1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``refresh``
|
|
|
Time in seconds between refreshes of the progress bar. (default: 0.1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``format``
|
|
|
Format of the progress bar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Valid entries for the format field are ``topic``, ``bar``, ``number``,
|
|
|
``unit``, ``estimate``, ``speed``, and ``item``. ``item`` defaults to the
|
|
|
last 20 characters of the item, but this can be changed by adding either
|
|
|
``-<num>`` which would take the last num characters, or ``+<num>`` for the
|
|
|
first num characters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default: topic bar number estimate)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``width``
|
|
|
If set, the maximum width of the progress information (that is, min(width,
|
|
|
term width) will be used).
|
|
|
|
|
|
``clear-complete``
|
|
|
Clear the progress bar after it's done. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``disable``
|
|
|
If true, don't show a progress bar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``assume-tty``
|
|
|
If true, ALWAYS show a progress bar, unless disable is given.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``rebase``
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allowdivergence``
|
|
|
Default to False, when True allow creating divergence when performing
|
|
|
rebase of obsolete changesets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``revsetalias``
|
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alias definitions for revsets. See :hg:`help revsets` for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``server``
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Controls generic server settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``uncompressed``
|
|
|
Whether to allow clients to clone a repository using the
|
|
|
uncompressed streaming protocol. This transfers about 40% more
|
|
|
data than a regular clone, but uses less memory and CPU on both
|
|
|
server and client. Over a LAN (100 Mbps or better) or a very fast
|
|
|
WAN, an uncompressed streaming clone is a lot faster (~10x) than a
|
|
|
regular clone. Over most WAN connections (anything slower than
|
|
|
about 6 Mbps), uncompressed streaming is slower, because of the
|
|
|
extra data transfer overhead. This mode will also temporarily hold
|
|
|
the write lock while determining what data to transfer.
|
|
|
(default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``preferuncompressed``
|
|
|
When set, clients will try to use the uncompressed streaming
|
|
|
protocol. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``validate``
|
|
|
Whether to validate the completeness of pushed changesets by
|
|
|
checking that all new file revisions specified in manifests are
|
|
|
present. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``maxhttpheaderlen``
|
|
|
Instruct HTTP clients not to send request headers longer than this
|
|
|
many bytes. (default: 1024)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bundle1``
|
|
|
Whether to allow clients to push and pull using the legacy bundle1
|
|
|
exchange format. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bundle1gd``
|
|
|
Like ``bundle1`` but only used if the repository is using the
|
|
|
*generaldelta* storage format. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bundle1.push``
|
|
|
Whether to allow clients to push using the legacy bundle1 exchange
|
|
|
format. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bundle1gd.push``
|
|
|
Like ``bundle1.push`` but only used if the repository is using the
|
|
|
*generaldelta* storage format. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bundle1.pull``
|
|
|
Whether to allow clients to pull using the legacy bundle1 exchange
|
|
|
format. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``bundle1gd.pull``
|
|
|
Like ``bundle1.pull`` but only used if the repository is using the
|
|
|
*generaldelta* storage format. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Large repositories using the *generaldelta* storage format should
|
|
|
consider setting this option because converting *generaldelta*
|
|
|
repositories to the exchange format required by the bundle1 data
|
|
|
format can consume a lot of CPU.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``smtp``
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration for extensions that need to send email messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``host``
|
|
|
Host name of mail server, e.g. "mail.example.com".
|
|
|
|
|
|
``port``
|
|
|
Optional. Port to connect to on mail server. (default: 465 if
|
|
|
``tls`` is smtps; 25 otherwise)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``tls``
|
|
|
Optional. Method to enable TLS when connecting to mail server: starttls,
|
|
|
smtps or none. (default: none)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``verifycert``
|
|
|
Optional. Verification for the certificate of mail server, when
|
|
|
``tls`` is starttls or smtps. "strict", "loose" or False. For
|
|
|
"strict" or "loose", the certificate is verified as same as the
|
|
|
verification for HTTPS connections (see ``[hostfingerprints]`` and
|
|
|
``[web] cacerts`` also). For "strict", sending email is also
|
|
|
aborted, if there is no configuration for mail server in
|
|
|
``[hostfingerprints]`` and ``[web] cacerts``. --insecure for
|
|
|
:hg:`email` overwrites this as "loose". (default: strict)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``username``
|
|
|
Optional. User name for authenticating with the SMTP server.
|
|
|
(default: None)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``password``
|
|
|
Optional. Password for authenticating with the SMTP server. If not
|
|
|
specified, interactive sessions will prompt the user for a
|
|
|
password; non-interactive sessions will fail. (default: None)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``local_hostname``
|
|
|
Optional. The hostname that the sender can use to identify
|
|
|
itself to the MTA.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``subpaths``
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Subrepository source URLs can go stale if a remote server changes name
|
|
|
or becomes temporarily unavailable. This section lets you define
|
|
|
rewrite rules of the form::
|
|
|
|
|
|
<pattern> = <replacement>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where ``pattern`` is a regular expression matching a subrepository
|
|
|
source URL and ``replacement`` is the replacement string used to
|
|
|
rewrite it. Groups can be matched in ``pattern`` and referenced in
|
|
|
``replacements``. For instance::
|
|
|
|
|
|
http://server/(.*)-hg/ = http://hg.server/\1/
|
|
|
|
|
|
rewrites ``http://server/foo-hg/`` into ``http://hg.server/foo/``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Relative subrepository paths are first made absolute, and the
|
|
|
rewrite rules are then applied on the full (absolute) path. The rules
|
|
|
are applied in definition order.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``trusted``
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mercurial will not use the settings in the
|
|
|
``.hg/hgrc`` file from a repository if it doesn't belong to a trusted
|
|
|
user or to a trusted group, as various hgrc features allow arbitrary
|
|
|
commands to be run. This issue is often encountered when configuring
|
|
|
hooks or extensions for shared repositories or servers. However,
|
|
|
the web interface will use some safe settings from the ``[web]``
|
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section specifies what users and groups are trusted. The
|
|
|
current user is always trusted. To trust everybody, list a user or a
|
|
|
group with name ``*``. These settings must be placed in an
|
|
|
*already-trusted file* to take effect, such as ``$HOME/.hgrc`` of the
|
|
|
user or service running Mercurial.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``users``
|
|
|
Comma-separated list of trusted users.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``groups``
|
|
|
Comma-separated list of trusted groups.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ui``
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
|
|
User interface controls.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``archivemeta``
|
|
|
Whether to include the .hg_archival.txt file containing meta data
|
|
|
(hashes for the repository base and for tip) in archives created
|
|
|
by the :hg:`archive` command or downloaded via hgweb.
|
|
|
(default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``askusername``
|
|
|
Whether to prompt for a username when committing. If True, and
|
|
|
neither ``$HGUSER`` nor ``$EMAIL`` has been specified, then the user will
|
|
|
be prompted to enter a username. If no username is entered, the
|
|
|
default ``USER@HOST`` is used instead.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``clonebundles``
|
|
|
Whether the "clone bundles" feature is enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
When enabled, :hg:`clone` may download and apply a server-advertised
|
|
|
bundle file from a URL instead of using the normal exchange mechanism.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This can likely result in faster and more reliable clones.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``clonebundlefallback``
|
|
|
Whether failure to apply an advertised "clone bundle" from a server
|
|
|
should result in fallback to a regular clone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is disabled by default because servers advertising "clone
|
|
|
bundles" often do so to reduce server load. If advertised bundles
|
|
|
start mass failing and clients automatically fall back to a regular
|
|
|
clone, this would add significant and unexpected load to the server
|
|
|
since the server is expecting clone operations to be offloaded to
|
|
|
pre-generated bundles. Failing fast (the default behavior) ensures
|
|
|
clients don't overwhelm the server when "clone bundle" application
|
|
|
fails.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``clonebundleprefers``
|
|
|
Defines preferences for which "clone bundles" to use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Servers advertising "clone bundles" may advertise multiple available
|
|
|
bundles. Each bundle may have different attributes, such as the bundle
|
|
|
type and compression format. This option is used to prefer a particular
|
|
|
bundle over another.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following keys are defined by Mercurial:
|
|
|
|
|
|
BUNDLESPEC
|
|
|
A bundle type specifier. These are strings passed to :hg:`bundle -t`.
|
|
|
e.g. ``gzip-v2`` or ``bzip2-v1``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
COMPRESSION
|
|
|
The compression format of the bundle. e.g. ``gzip`` and ``bzip2``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Server operators may define custom keys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example values: ``COMPRESSION=bzip2``,
|
|
|
``BUNDLESPEC=gzip-v2, COMPRESSION=gzip``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, the first bundle advertised by the server is used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``commitsubrepos``
|
|
|
Whether to commit modified subrepositories when committing the
|
|
|
parent repository. If False and one subrepository has uncommitted
|
|
|
changes, abort the commit.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``debug``
|
|
|
Print debugging information. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``editor``
|
|
|
The editor to use during a commit. (default: ``$EDITOR`` or ``vi``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``fallbackencoding``
|
|
|
Encoding to try if it's not possible to decode the changelog using
|
|
|
UTF-8. (default: ISO-8859-1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``graphnodetemplate``
|
|
|
The template used to print changeset nodes in an ASCII revision graph.
|
|
|
(default: ``{graphnode}``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignore``
|
|
|
A file to read per-user ignore patterns from. This file should be
|
|
|
in the same format as a repository-wide .hgignore file. Filenames
|
|
|
are relative to the repository root. This option supports hook syntax,
|
|
|
so if you want to specify multiple ignore files, you can do so by
|
|
|
setting something like ``ignore.other = ~/.hgignore2``. For details
|
|
|
of the ignore file format, see the ``hgignore(5)`` man page.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``interactive``
|
|
|
Allow to prompt the user. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``interface``
|
|
|
Select the default interface for interactive features (default: text).
|
|
|
Possible values are 'text' and 'curses'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``interface.chunkselector``
|
|
|
Select the interface for change recording (e.g. :hg:`commit` -i).
|
|
|
Possible values are 'text' and 'curses'.
|
|
|
This config overrides the interface specified by ui.interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``logtemplate``
|
|
|
Template string for commands that print changesets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``merge``
|
|
|
The conflict resolution program to use during a manual merge.
|
|
|
For more information on merge tools see :hg:`help merge-tools`.
|
|
|
For configuring merge tools see the ``[merge-tools]`` section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``mergemarkers``
|
|
|
Sets the merge conflict marker label styling. The ``detailed``
|
|
|
style uses the ``mergemarkertemplate`` setting to style the labels.
|
|
|
The ``basic`` style just uses 'local' and 'other' as the marker label.
|
|
|
One of ``basic`` or ``detailed``.
|
|
|
(default: ``basic``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``mergemarkertemplate``
|
|
|
The template used to print the commit description next to each conflict
|
|
|
marker during merge conflicts. See :hg:`help templates` for the template
|
|
|
format.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defaults to showing the hash, tags, branches, bookmarks, author, and
|
|
|
the first line of the commit description.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you use non-ASCII characters in names for tags, branches, bookmarks,
|
|
|
authors, and/or commit descriptions, you must pay attention to encodings of
|
|
|
managed files. At template expansion, non-ASCII characters use the encoding
|
|
|
specified by the ``--encoding`` global option, ``HGENCODING`` or other
|
|
|
environment variables that govern your locale. If the encoding of the merge
|
|
|
markers is different from the encoding of the merged files,
|
|
|
serious problems may occur.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``origbackuppath``
|
|
|
The path to a directory used to store generated .orig files. If the path is
|
|
|
not a directory, one will be created.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``patch``
|
|
|
An optional external tool that ``hg import`` and some extensions
|
|
|
will use for applying patches. By default Mercurial uses an
|
|
|
internal patch utility. The external tool must work as the common
|
|
|
Unix ``patch`` program. In particular, it must accept a ``-p``
|
|
|
argument to strip patch headers, a ``-d`` argument to specify the
|
|
|
current directory, a file name to patch, and a patch file to take
|
|
|
from stdin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to specify a patch tool together with extra
|
|
|
arguments. For example, setting this option to ``patch --merge``
|
|
|
will use the ``patch`` program with its 2-way merge option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``portablefilenames``
|
|
|
Check for portable filenames. Can be ``warn``, ``ignore`` or ``abort``.
|
|
|
(default: ``warn``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``warn``
|
|
|
Print a warning message on POSIX platforms, if a file with a non-portable
|
|
|
filename is added (e.g. a file with a name that can't be created on
|
|
|
Windows because it contains reserved parts like ``AUX``, reserved
|
|
|
characters like ``:``, or would cause a case collision with an existing
|
|
|
file).
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ignore``
|
|
|
Don't print a warning.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``abort``
|
|
|
The command is aborted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``true``
|
|
|
Alias for ``warn``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``false``
|
|
|
Alias for ``ignore``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. container:: windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Windows, this configuration option is ignored and the command aborted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``quiet``
|
|
|
Reduce the amount of output printed.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``remotecmd``
|
|
|
Remote command to use for clone/push/pull operations.
|
|
|
(default: ``hg``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``report_untrusted``
|
|
|
Warn if a ``.hg/hgrc`` file is ignored due to not being owned by a
|
|
|
trusted user or group.
|
|
|
(default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``slash``
|
|
|
Display paths using a slash (``/``) as the path separator. This
|
|
|
only makes a difference on systems where the default path
|
|
|
separator is not the slash character (e.g. Windows uses the
|
|
|
backslash character (``\``)).
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``statuscopies``
|
|
|
Display copies in the status command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ssh``
|
|
|
Command to use for SSH connections. (default: ``ssh``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``strict``
|
|
|
Require exact command names, instead of allowing unambiguous
|
|
|
abbreviations. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``style``
|
|
|
Name of style to use for command output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``supportcontact``
|
|
|
A URL where users should report a Mercurial traceback. Use this if you are a
|
|
|
large organisation with its own Mercurial deployment process and crash
|
|
|
reports should be addressed to your internal support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``timeout``
|
|
|
The timeout used when a lock is held (in seconds), a negative value
|
|
|
means no timeout. (default: 600)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``traceback``
|
|
|
Mercurial always prints a traceback when an unknown exception
|
|
|
occurs. Setting this to True will make Mercurial print a traceback
|
|
|
on all exceptions, even those recognized by Mercurial (such as
|
|
|
IOError or MemoryError). (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``username``
|
|
|
The committer of a changeset created when running "commit".
|
|
|
Typically a person's name and email address, e.g. ``Fred Widget
|
|
|
<fred@example.com>``. Environment variables in the
|
|
|
username are expanded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default: ``$EMAIL`` or ``username@hostname``. If the username in
|
|
|
hgrc is empty, e.g. if the system admin set ``username =`` in the
|
|
|
system hgrc, it has to be specified manually or in a different
|
|
|
hgrc file)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``verbose``
|
|
|
Increase the amount of output printed. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``web``
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Web interface configuration. The settings in this section apply to
|
|
|
both the builtin webserver (started by :hg:`serve`) and the script you
|
|
|
run through a webserver (``hgweb.cgi`` and the derivatives for FastCGI
|
|
|
and WSGI).
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Mercurial webserver does no authentication (it does not prompt for
|
|
|
usernames and passwords to validate *who* users are), but it does do
|
|
|
authorization (it grants or denies access for *authenticated users*
|
|
|
based on settings in this section). You must either configure your
|
|
|
webserver to do authentication for you, or disable the authorization
|
|
|
checks.

|
|
|
|
|
For a quick setup in a trusted environment, e.g., a private LAN, where
|
|
|
you want it to accept pushes from anybody, you can use the following
|
|
|
command line::
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ hg --config web.allow_push=* --config web.push_ssl=False serve
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that this will allow anybody to push anything to the server and
|
|
|
that this should not be used for public servers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The full set of options is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
``accesslog``
|
|
|
Where to output the access log. (default: stdout)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``address``
|
|
|
Interface address to bind to. (default: all)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allow_archive``
|
|
|
List of archive format (bz2, gz, zip) allowed for downloading.
|
|
|
(default: empty)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allowbz2``
|
|
|
(DEPRECATED) Whether to allow .tar.bz2 downloading of repository
|
|
|
revisions.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allowgz``
|
|
|
(DEPRECATED) Whether to allow .tar.gz downloading of repository
|
|
|
revisions.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allowpull``
|
|
|
Whether to allow pulling from the repository. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allow_push``
|
|
|
Whether to allow pushing to the repository. If empty or not set,
|
|
|
pushing is not allowed. If the special value ``*``, any remote
|
|
|
user can push, including unauthenticated users. Otherwise, the
|
|
|
remote user must have been authenticated, and the authenticated
|
|
|
user name must be present in this list. The contents of the
|
|
|
allow_push list are examined after the deny_push list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allow_read``
|
|
|
If the user has not already been denied repository access due to
|
|
|
the contents of deny_read, this list determines whether to grant
|
|
|
repository access to the user. If this list is not empty, and the
|
|
|
user is unauthenticated or not present in the list, then access is
|
|
|
denied for the user. If the list is empty or not set, then access
|
|
|
is permitted to all users by default. Setting allow_read to the
|
|
|
special value ``*`` is equivalent to it not being set (i.e. access
|
|
|
is permitted to all users). The contents of the allow_read list are
|
|
|
examined after the deny_read list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``allowzip``
|
|
|
(DEPRECATED) Whether to allow .zip downloading of repository
|
|
|
revisions. This feature creates temporary files.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``archivesubrepos``
|
|
|
Whether to recurse into subrepositories when archiving.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``baseurl``
|
|
|
Base URL to use when publishing URLs in other locations, so
|
|
|
third-party tools like email notification hooks can construct
|
|
|
URLs. Example: ``http://hgserver/repos/``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``cacerts``
|
|
|
Path to file containing a list of PEM encoded certificate
|
|
|
authority certificates. Environment variables and ``~user``
|
|
|
constructs are expanded in the filename. If specified on the
|
|
|
client, then it will verify the identity of remote HTTPS servers
|
|
|
with these certificates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This feature is only supported when using Python 2.6 or later. If you wish
|
|
|
to use it with earlier versions of Python, install the backported
|
|
|
version of the ssl library that is available from
|
|
|
``http://pypi.python.org``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To disable SSL verification temporarily, specify ``--insecure`` from
|
|
|
command line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use OpenSSL's CA certificate file if your platform has
|
|
|
one. On most Linux systems this will be
|
|
|
``/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt``. Otherwise you will have to
|
|
|
generate this file manually. The form must be as follows::
|
|
|
|
|
|
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
|
|
|
... (certificate in base64 PEM encoding) ...
|
|
|
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
|
|
|
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
|
|
|
... (certificate in base64 PEM encoding) ...
|
|
|
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
|
|
|
|
|
|
``cache``
|
|
|
Whether to support caching in hgweb. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``certificate``
|
|
|
Certificate to use when running :hg:`serve`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``collapse``
|
|
|
With ``descend`` enabled, repositories in subdirectories are shown at
|
|
|
a single level alongside repositories in the current path. With
|
|
|
``collapse`` also enabled, repositories residing at a deeper level than
|
|
|
the current path are grouped behind navigable directory entries that
|
|
|
lead to the locations of these repositories. In effect, this setting
|
|
|
collapses each collection of repositories found within a subdirectory
|
|
|
into a single entry for that subdirectory. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``comparisoncontext``
|
|
|
Number of lines of context to show in side-by-side file comparison. If
|
|
|
negative or the value ``full``, whole files are shown. (default: 5)
|
|
|
|
|
|
This setting can be overridden by a ``context`` request parameter to the
|
|
|
``comparison`` command, taking the same values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``contact``
|
|
|
Name or email address of the person in charge of the repository.
|
|
|
(default: ui.username or ``$EMAIL`` or "unknown" if unset or empty)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``deny_push``
|
|
|
Whether to deny pushing to the repository. If empty or not set,
|
|
|
push is not denied. If the special value ``*``, all remote users are
|
|
|
denied push. Otherwise, unauthenticated users are all denied, and
|
|
|
any authenticated user name present in this list is also denied. The
|
|
|
contents of the deny_push list are examined before the allow_push list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``deny_read``
|
|
|
Whether to deny reading/viewing of the repository. If this list is
|
|
|
not empty, unauthenticated users are all denied, and any
|
|
|
authenticated user name present in this list is also denied access to
|
|
|
the repository. If set to the special value ``*``, all remote users
|
|
|
are denied access (rarely needed ;). If deny_read is empty or not set,
|
|
|
the determination of repository access depends on the presence and
|
|
|
content of the allow_read list (see description). If both
|
|
|
deny_read and allow_read are empty or not set, then access is
|
|
|
permitted to all users by default. If the repository is being
|
|
|
served via hgwebdir, denied users will not be able to see it in
|
|
|
the list of repositories. The contents of the deny_read list have
|
|
|
priority over (are examined before) the contents of the allow_read
|
|
|
list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``descend``
|
|
|
hgwebdir indexes will not descend into subdirectories. Only repositories
|
|
|
directly in the current path will be shown (other repositories are still
|
|
|
available from the index corresponding to their containing path).
|
|
|
|
|
|
``description``
|
|
|
Textual description of the repository's purpose or contents.
|
|
|
(default: "unknown")
|
|
|
|
|
|
``encoding``
|
|
|
Character encoding name. (default: the current locale charset)
|
|
|
Example: "UTF-8".
|
|
|
|
|
|
``errorlog``
|
|
|
Where to output the error log. (default: stderr)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``guessmime``
|
|
|
Control MIME types for raw download of file content.
|
|
|
Set to True to let hgweb guess the content type from the file
|
|
|
extension. This will serve HTML files as ``text/html`` and might
|
|
|
allow cross-site scripting attacks when serving untrusted
|
|
|
repositories. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``hidden``
|
|
|
Whether to hide the repository in the hgwebdir index.
|
|
|
(default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ipv6``
|
|
|
Whether to use IPv6. (default: False)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``logoimg``
|
|
|
File name of the logo image that some templates display on each page.
|
|
|
The file name is relative to ``staticurl``. That is, the full path to
|
|
|
the logo image is "staticurl/logoimg".
|
|
|
If unset, ``hglogo.png`` will be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``logourl``
|
|
|
Base URL to use for logos. If unset, ``https://mercurial-scm.org/``
|
|
|
will be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``maxchanges``
|
|
|
Maximum number of changes to list on the changelog. (default: 10)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``maxfiles``
|
|
|
Maximum number of files to list per changeset. (default: 10)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``maxshortchanges``
|
|
|
Maximum number of changes to list on the shortlog, graph or filelog
|
|
|
pages. (default: 60)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``name``
|
|
|
Repository name to use in the web interface.
|
|
|
(default: current working directory)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``port``
|
|
|
Port to listen on. (default: 8000)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``prefix``
|
|
|
Prefix path to serve from. (default: '' (server root))
|
|
|
|
|
|
``push_ssl``
|
|
|
Whether to require that inbound pushes be transported over SSL to
|
|
|
prevent password sniffing. (default: True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``refreshinterval``
|
|
|
How frequently directory listings re-scan the filesystem for new
|
|
|
repositories, in seconds. This is relevant when wildcards are used
|
|
|
to define paths. Depending on how much filesystem traversal is
|
|
|
required, refreshing may negatively impact performance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Values less than or equal to 0 always refresh.
|
|
|
(default: 20)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``staticurl``
|
|
|
Base URL to use for static files. If unset, static files (e.g. the
|
|
|
hgicon.png favicon) will be served by the CGI script itself. Use
|
|
|
this setting to serve them directly with the HTTP server.
|
|
|
Example: ``http://hgserver/static/``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``stripes``
|
|
|
How many lines a "zebra stripe" should span in multi-line output.
|
|
|
Set to 0 to disable. (default: 1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``style``
|
|
|
Which template map style to use. The available options are the names of
|
|
|
subdirectories in the HTML templates path. (default: ``paper``)
|
|
|
Example: ``monoblue``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``templates``
|
|
|
Where to find the HTML templates. The default path to the HTML templates
|
|
|
can be obtained from ``hg debuginstall``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``websub``
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Web substitution filter definition. You can use this section to
|
|
|
define a set of regular expression substitution patterns which
|
|
|
let you automatically modify the hgweb server output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default hgweb templates only apply these substitution patterns
|
|
|
on the revision description fields. You can apply them anywhere
|
|
|
you want when you create your own templates by adding calls to the
|
|
|
"websub" filter (usually after calling the "escape" filter).
|
|
|
|
|
|
This can be used, for example, to convert issue references to links
|
|
|
to your issue tracker, or to convert "markdown-like" syntax into
|
|
|
HTML (see the examples below).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each entry in this section names a substitution filter.
|
|
|
The value of each entry defines the substitution expression itself.
|
|
|
The websub expressions follow the old interhg extension syntax,
|
|
|
which in turn imitates the Unix sed replacement syntax::
|
|
|
|
|
|
patternname = s/SEARCH_REGEX/REPLACE_EXPRESSION/[i]
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use any separator other than "/". The final "i" is optional
|
|
|
and indicates that the search must be case insensitive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples::
|
|
|
|
|
|
[websub]
|
|
|
issues = s|issue(\d+)|<a href="http://bts.example.org/issue\1">issue\1</a>|i
|
|
|
italic = s/\b_(\S+)_\b/<i>\1<\/i>/
|
|
|
bold = s/\*\b(\S+)\b\*/<b>\1<\/b>/
|
|
|
|
|
|
``worker``
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parallel master/worker configuration. We currently perform working
|
|
|
directory updates in parallel on Unix-like systems, which greatly
|
|
|
helps performance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
``numcpus``
|
|
|
Number of CPUs to use for parallel operations. A zero or
|
|
|
negative value is treated as ``use the default``.
|
|
|
(default: 4 or the number of CPUs on the system, whichever is larger)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``backgroundclose``
|
|
|
Whether to enable closing file handles on background threads during certain
|
|
|
operations. Some platforms aren't very efficient at closing file
|
|
|
handles that have been written or appended to. By performing file closing
|
|
|
on background threads, file write rate can increase substantially.
|
|
|
(default: true on Windows, false elsewhere)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``backgroundcloseminfilecount``
|
|
|
Minimum number of files required to trigger background file closing.
|
|
|
Operations not writing this many files won't start background close
|
|
|
threads.
|
|
|
(default: 2048)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``backgroundclosemaxqueue``
|
|
|
The maximum number of opened file handles waiting to be closed in the
|
|
|
background. This option only has an effect if ``backgroundclose`` is
|
|
|
enabled.
|
|
|
(default: 384)
|
|
|
|
|
|
``backgroundclosethreadcount``
|
|
|
Number of threads to process background file closes. Only relevant if
|
|
|
``backgroundclose`` is enabled.
|
|
|
(default: 4)
|
|
|
|
