push: propagate --new-branch and --ssh options when pushing subrepos...
push: propagate --new-branch and --ssh options when pushing subrepos Up until now the all the push command options were ignored when pushing subrepos. In particular, the fact that the --new-branch command was not passed down to subrepos made it not possible to push a repo when any of its subrepos had a new branch, even if you used the --new-branch option of the push command. In addition the error message was confusing since it showed the following hint: "--new-branch hint: use 'hg push --new-branch' to create new remote branches". However using the --new_branch flag did not fix the problem, as it was ignored when pushing subrepos. This patch passes the --new-branch and --ssh flags to every subrepo that is pushed. Issues/Limitations: - All subrepo types get these flags, but only the mercurial subrepos use them. - It is no longer possible to _not_ pass down these flags to subrepos when pushing: * An alternative would be to introduce a --subrepos flag that should be used to pass down these flags to the subrepos. * If we did this, it could make sense to make the --force flag respect this new --subrepos flag as well for consistency's sake. - Matt suggested that the ssh related flags could also be passed down to subrepos during pull and clone. However it seems that it would be the "update" command that would need to get those, since subrepos are only pulled on update. In any case I'd prefer to leave that for a later patch.

Mercurial supports several ways to specify individual revisions.
A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative integers are
treated as sequential offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the tip,
-2 denoting the revision prior to the tip, and so forth.
A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision
identifier.
A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a
unique revision identifier and is referred to as a short-form
identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the prefix
of exactly one full-length identifier.
Any other string is treated as a tag or branch name. A tag name is a
symbolic name associated with a revision identifier. A branch name
denotes the tipmost revision of that branch. Tag and branch names must
not contain the ":" character.
The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies the
most recent revision.
The reserved name "null" indicates the null revision. This is the
revision of an empty repository, and the parent of revision 0.
The reserved name "." indicates the working directory parent. If no
working directory is checked out, it is equivalent to null. If an
uncommitted merge is in progress, "." is the revision of the first
parent.
