commands.push: abort when revisions evaluate to empty set (BC)...
commands.push: abort when revisions evaluate to empty set (BC) If the "-r" argument is specified to "hg push," the user has expressed an intent for a specific changeset to be present on the remote. If that expression cannot be mapped to a known changeset, the user's intent is ambiguous and cannot be acted upon without making assumptions. Previously, if arguments to `push -r <rev>` evaluated to an empty set (perhaps the user specified a revset that didn't evaluate to anything), the empty "revs" list would be passed down to "exchange.push" where it appears the empty list was being interpreted as "push everything." This patch adds validation to the "-r" argument to the push command. If the argument is specified but doesn't resolve to a changeset, the command will abort instead of doing something potentially unexpected. This patch is technically breaking backwards compatibility. I believe this is justified because the new behavior closes a crack that could result in undefined or under-defined behavior. Also, this patch doesn't drop client capabilities because if users really wanted to push all changesets, they can simply omit the "-r" argument from push completely.

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
See :hg:`help config` for more information on configuration files.
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 = !
