largefiles: access to specific fields only if largefiles enabled (issue4547)...
largefiles: access to specific fields only if largefiles enabled (issue4547) Even if largefiles extension is enabled in a repository, "repo" object, which isn't "largefiles.reposetup()"-ed, is passed to overridden functions in the cases below unexpectedly, because extensions are enabled for each repositories strictly. (1) clone without -U: (2) pull with -U: (3) pull with --rebase: combination of "enabled@src", "disabled@dst" and "not-required@src" cause this situation. largefiles requirement @src @dst @src result -------- -------- --------------- -------------------- enabled disabled not-required aborted unexpectedly required requirement error (intentional) -------- -------- --------------- -------------------- enabled enabled * success -------- -------- --------------- -------------------- disabled enabled * success (only for "pull") -------- -------- --------------- -------------------- disabled disabled not-required success required requirement error (intentional) -------- -------- --------------- -------------------- (4) update/revert with a subrepo disabling largefiles In these cases, overridden functions cause accessing to largefiles specific fields of not "largefiles.reposetup()"-ed "repo" object, and execution is aborted. - (1), (2), (4) cause accessing to "_lfstatuswriters" in "getstatuswriter()" invoked via "updatelfiles()" - (3) causes accessing to "_lfcommithooks" in "overriderebase()" For safe accessing to these fields, this patch examines whether passed "repo" object is "largefiles.reposetup()"-ed or not before accessing to them. This patch chooses examining existence of newly introduced "_largefilesenabled" instead of "_lfcommithooks" and "_lfstatuswriters" directly, because the former is better name for the generic "largefiles is enabled in this repo" mark than the latter. In the future, all other overridden functions should avoid largefiles specific processing for efficiency, and "_largefilesenabled" is better also for such purpose. BTW, "lfstatus" can't be used for such purpose, because some code paths set it forcibly regardless of existence of it in specified "repo" object.

<h1>Mercurial for Windows</h1>
<p>Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!</p>
<p>
Mercurial is a command-line application. You must run it from
the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a
href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> shell).
</p>
<p class="indented">
<i>Note: the standard <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a>
msys startup script uses rxvt which has problems setting up
standard input and output. Running bash directly works
correctly.</i>
</p>
<p>
For documentation, please visit the <a
href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/">Mercurial web site</a>.
You can also download a free book, <a
href="http://hgbook.red-bean.com/">Mercurial: The Definitive
Guide</a>.
</p>
<p>
By default, Mercurial installs to <tt>C:\Program
Files\Mercurial</tt>. The Mercurial command is called
<tt>hg.exe</tt>.
</p>
<h1>Testing Mercurial after you've installed it</h1>
<p>
The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is
to just type the following at the command prompt:
</p>
<pre>
hg
</pre>
<p>
This command should print a useful help message. If it does,
other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.
</p>
<h1>Configuration notes</h1>
<h4>Default editor</h4>
<p>
The default editor for commit messages is 'notepad'. You can set
the <tt>EDITOR</tt> (or <tt>HGEDITOR</tt>) environment variable
to specify your preference or set it in <tt>mercurial.ini</tt>:
</p>
<pre>
[ui]
editor = whatever
</pre>
<h4>Configuring a Merge program</h4>
<p>
It should be emphasized that Mercurial by itself doesn't attempt
to do a Merge at the file level, neither does it make any
attempt to Resolve the conflicts.
</p>
<p>
By default, Mercurial will use the merge program defined by the
<tt>HGMERGE</tt> environment variable, or uses the one defined
in the <tt>mercurial.ini</tt> file. (see <a
href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/MergeProgram">MergeProgram</a>
on the Mercurial Wiki for more information)
