rust-node: binary Node ID and conversion utilities...
rust-node: binary Node ID and conversion utilities The choice of type makes sure that a `Node` has the exact wanted size. We'll use a different type for prefixes. Added dependency: hexadecimal conversion relies on the `hex` crate. The fact that sooner or later Mercurial is going to need to change its hash sizes has been taken strongly in consideration: - the hash length is a constant, but that is not directly exposed to callers. Changing the value of that constant is the only thing to do to change the hash length (even in unit tests) - the code could be adapted to support several sizes of hashes, if that turned out to be useful. To that effect, only the size of a given `Node` is exposed in the public API. - callers not involved in initial computation, I/O and FFI are able to operate without a priori assumptions on the hash size. The traits `FromHex` and `ToHex` have not been directly implemented, so that the doc-comments explaining these restrictions would stay really visible in `cargo doc` Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7788

Requirements

Building the Inno installer requires a Windows machine.

The following system dependencies must be installed:

Building

The packaging.py script automates the process of producing an Inno installer. It manages fetching and configuring the non-system dependencies (such as py2exe, gettext, and various Python packages).

The script requires an activated Visual C++ 2008 command prompt. A shortcut to such a prompt was installed with Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7. From your Start Menu, look for Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler Package for Python 2.7 then launch either Visual C++ 2008 32-bit Command Prompt or Visual C++ 2008 64-bit Command Prompt.

From the prompt, change to the Mercurial source directory. e.g. cd c:\src\hg.

Next, invoke packaging.py to produce an Inno installer. You will need to supply the path to the Python interpreter to use.:

$ python3.exe contrib\packaging\packaging.py \
    inno --python c:\python27\python.exe

Note

The script validates that the Visual C++ environment is active and that the architecture of the specified Python interpreter matches the Visual C++ environment and errors if not.

If everything runs as intended, dependencies will be fetched and configured into the build sub-directory, Mercurial will be built, and an installer placed in the dist sub-directory. The final line of output should print the name of the generated installer.

Additional options may be configured. Run packaging.py inno --help to see a list of program flags.

MinGW

It is theoretically possible to generate an installer that uses MinGW. This isn't well tested and packaging.py and may properly support it. See old versions of this file in version control for potentially useful hints as to how to achieve this.
