Testing that convert.hg.preserve-hash=true can be used to make hg convert from hg repo to hg repo preserve hashes, even if the computation of the files list in commits change slightly between hg versions. $ cat <<'EOF' >> "$HGRCPATH" > [extensions] > convert = > EOF $ cat <<'EOF' > changefileslist.py > from mercurial import (changelog, extensions) > def wrap(orig, clog, manifest, files, *args, **kwargs): > return orig(clog, manifest, [b"a"], *args, **kwargs) > def extsetup(ui): > extensions.wrapfunction(changelog.changelog, 'add', wrap) > EOF $ hg init repo $ cd repo $ echo a > a; hg commit -qAm a $ echo b > a; hg commit -qAm b $ hg up -qr 0; echo c > c; hg commit -qAm c $ hg merge -qr 1 $ hg commit -m_ --config extensions.x=../changefileslist.py $ hg log -r . -T '{node|short} {files|json}\n' c085bbe93d59 ["a"] Now that we have a commit with a files list that's not what the current hg version would create, check that convert either fixes it or keeps it depending on config: $ hg convert -q . ../convert $ hg --cwd ../convert log -r tip -T '{node|short} {files|json}\n' b7c4d4bbacd3 [] $ rm -rf ../convert $ hg convert -q . ../convert --config convert.hg.preserve-hash=true $ hg --cwd ../convert log -r tip -T '{node|short} {files|json}\n' c085bbe93d59 ["a"] $ rm -rf ../convert
