config: add option to control creation of empty successors during rewrite...
config: add option to control creation of empty successors during rewrite The default for many history-rewriting commands (e.g. rebase and absorb) is that changesets which would become empty are not created in the target branch. This makes sense if the source branch consists of small fix-up changes. For more advanced workflows that make heavy use of history-editing to create curated patch series, dropping empty changesets is not as important or even undesirable. Some users want to keep the meta-history, e.g. to make finding comments in a code review tool easier or to avoid that divergent bookmarks are created. For that, obsmarkers from the (to-be) empty changeset to the changeset(s) that already made the changes should be added. If a to-be empty changeset is pruned without a successor, adding the obsmarkers is hard because the changeset has to be found within the hidden part of the history. If rebasing in TortoiseHg, it’s easy to miss the fact that the to-be empty changeset was pruned. An empty changeset will function as a reminder that obsmarkers should be added. Martin von Zweigbergk mentioned another advantage. Stripping the successor will de-obsolete the predecessor. If no (empty) successor is created, this won’t be possible. In the future, we may want to consider other behaviors, like e.g. creating the empty successor, but pruning it right away. Therefore this configuration accepts 'skip' and 'keep' instead of being a boolean configuration.

Valid URLs are of the form::
local/filesystem/path[#revision]
file://local/filesystem/path[#revision]
http://[user[:pass]@]host[:port]/[path][#revision]
https://[user[:pass]@]host[:port]/[path][#revision]
ssh://[user@]host[:port]/[path][#revision]
Paths in the local filesystem can either point to Mercurial
repositories or to bundle files (as created by :hg:`bundle` or
:hg:`incoming --bundle`). See also :hg:`help paths`.
An optional identifier after # indicates a particular branch, tag, or
changeset to use from the remote repository. See also :hg:`help
revisions`.
Some features, such as pushing to http:// and https:// URLs are only
possible if the feature is explicitly enabled on the remote Mercurial
server.
Note that the security of HTTPS URLs depends on proper configuration of
web.cacerts.
Some notes about using SSH with Mercurial:
- SSH requires an accessible shell account on the destination machine
and a copy of hg in the remote path or specified with remotecmd.
- path is relative to the remote user's home directory by default. Use
an extra slash at the start of a path to specify an absolute path::
ssh://example.com//tmp/repository
- Mercurial doesn't use its own compression via SSH; the right thing
to do is to configure it in your ~/.ssh/config, e.g.::
Host *.mylocalnetwork.example.com
Compression no
Host *
Compression yes
Alternatively specify "ssh -C" as your ssh command in your
configuration file or with the --ssh command line option.
These URLs can all be stored in your configuration file with path
aliases under the [paths] section like so::
[paths]
alias1 = URL1
alias2 = URL2
...
You can then use the alias for any command that uses a URL (for
example :hg:`pull alias1` will be treated as :hg:`pull URL1`).
Two path aliases are special because they are used as defaults when
you do not provide the URL to a command:
default:
When you create a repository with hg clone, the clone command saves
the location of the source repository as the new repository's
'default' path. This is then used when you omit path from push- and
pull-like commands (including incoming and outgoing).
default-push:
The push command will look for a path named 'default-push', and
prefer it over 'default' if both are defined.
