encoding: define an enum that specifies what normcase does to ASCII strings For C code we don't want to pay the cost of calling into a Python function for the common case of ASCII filenames. However, while on most POSIX platforms we normalize filenames by lowercasing them, on Windows we uppercase them. We define an enum here indicating the direction that filenames should be normalized as. Some platforms (notably Cygwin) have more complicated normalization behavior -- we add a case for that too. In upcoming patches we'll also define a fallback function that is called if the string has non-ASCII bytes. This enum will be replicated in the C code to make foldmaps. There's unfortunately no nice way to avoid that -- we can't have encoding import parsers because of import cycles. One way might be to have parsers import encoding, but accessing Python modules from C code is just awkward. The name 'normcasespecs' was chosen to indicate that this is merely an integer that specifies a behavior, not a function. The name was pluralized since in upcoming patches we'll introduce 'normcasespec' which will be one of these values.

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 as 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.
