A client for Mercurial.

This is a wrapper around the hg executable that fetches repository information and generates compatible diffs.

scmclient_id: str = 'mercurial'[source]¶

A comma-separated list of SCMClient names on the server

New in version 3.0.

Type:: str

supports_commit_history: bool = True[source]¶

Whether the SCM client can generate a commit history.

Type:: bool

supports_diff_exclude_patterns: bool = True[source]¶

Whether the SCM client supports excluding files from the diff.

Type:: bool

supports_parent_diffs: bool = True[source]¶

Whether the SCM client supports generating parent diffs.

New in version 3.0.

Type:: bool

can_bookmark: bool = True[source]¶

Whether new bookmarks can be created.

Type:: bool

can_branch: bool = True[source]¶

Whether new branches can be created.

Type:: bool

__init__(executable='hg', **kwargs)[source]¶

Initialize the client.

Parameters:: **kwargs (dict) – Keyword arguments to pass through to the superclass.

check_dependencies() → None[source]¶

Check whether all base dependencies are available.

This checks for the presence of hg (or whichever executable is passed in to the client’s constructor) in the system path.

New in version 4.0.

Raises:: rbtools.clients.errors.SCMClientDependencyError – A hg tool could not be found.

property hidden_changesets_supported[source]¶

Return whether the repository supports hidden changesets.

Mercurial 1.9 and above support hidden changesets. These are changesets that have been hidden from regular repository view. They still exist and are accessible, but only if the –hidden command argument is specified.

Since we may encounter hidden changesets (e.g. the user specifies hidden changesets as part of the revision spec), we need to be aware of hidden changesets.

property hg_root[source]¶

Return the root of the working directory.

This will return the root directory of the current repository. If the current working directory is not inside a mercurial repository, this returns None.

get_commit_history(revisions)[source]¶

Return the commit history specified by the revisions.

Parameters:: revisions (dict) – A dictionary of revisions to generate history for, as returned by parse_revision_spec().
Returns:: This list of history entries, in order.
Return type:: list of dict
Raises:: rbtools.clients.errors.SCMError – The history is non-linear or there is a commit with no parents.

get_local_path() → Optional[str][source]¶

Return the local path to the working tree.

Returns:: The filesystem path of the repository on the client system.
Return type:: str

get_repository_info() → Optional[RepositoryInfo][source]¶

Return repository information for the current working tree.

Returns:: The repository info structure.
Return type:: rbtools.clients.base.repository.RepositoryInfo

parse_revision_spec(revisions: List[str] = []) → SCMClientRevisionSpec[source]¶

Parse the given revision spec.

These will be used to generate the diffs to upload to Review Board (or print). The diff for review will include the changes in (base, tip], and the parent diff (if necessary) will include (parent, base].

If zero revisions are passed in, this will return the outgoing changes from the parent of the working directory.

If a single revision is passed in, this will return the parent of that revision for “base” and the passed-in revision for “tip”. This will result in generating a diff for the changeset specified.

If two revisions are passed in, they will be used for the “base” and “tip” revisions, respectively.

In all cases, a parent base will be calculated automatically from changesets not present on the remote.

Parameters:

revisions (list of str, optional) – A list of revisions as specified by the user.

Returns:

The parsed revision spec.

See SCMClientRevisionSpec for the format of this dictionary.

This always populates base and tip.

commit_id and parent_base may also be populated.

Return type:

dict

Raises:

rbtools.clients.errors.InvalidRevisionSpecError – The given revisions could not be parsed.
rbtools.clients.errors.TooManyRevisionsError – The specified revisions list contained too many revisions.

get_hg_ref_type(ref)[source]¶

Return the type of a reference in Mercurial.

This can be used to determine if something is a bookmark, branch, tag, or revision.

Parameters:: ref (unicode) – The reference to return the type for.
Returns:: The reference type. This will be a value in MercurialRefType.
Return type:: unicode

get_raw_commit_message(revisions)[source]¶

Return the raw commit message.

This extracts all descriptions in the given revision range and concatenates them, most recent ones going first.

Parameters:: revisions (dict) – A dictionary containing base and tip keys.
Returns:: The commit messages of all commits between (base, tip].
Return type:: unicode

diff(revisions: SCMClientRevisionSpec, *, include_files: List[str] = [], exclude_patterns: List[str] = [], with_parent_diff: bool = True, **kwargs) → SCMClientDiffResult[source]¶

Perform a diff using the given revisions.

This will generate a Git-style diff and parent diff (if needed) for the provided revisions. The diff will contain additional metadata headers used by Review Board to locate the appropriate revisions from the repository.

Parameters:

revisions (dict) – A dictionary of revisions, as returned by parse_revision_spec().
include_files (list of str, optional) – A list of files to whitelist during the diff generation.
exclude_patterns (list of str, optional) – A list of shell-style glob patterns to blacklist during diff generation.
with_parent_diff (bool, optional) – Whether or not to include the parent diff in the result.
**kwargs (dict, unused) – Unused keyword arguments.

Returns:

A dictionary containing keys documented in SCMClientDiffResult.

Return type:

dict

create_commit(message, author, run_editor, files=[], all_files=False)[source]¶

Commit the given modified files.

This is expected to be called after applying a patch. This commits the patch using information from the review request, opening the commit message in $EDITOR to allow the user to update it.

Parameters:

message (unicode) – The commit message to use.
author (object) – The author of the commit. This is expected to have fullname and email attributes.
run_editor (bool) – Whether to run the user’s editor on the commmit message before committing.
files (list of unicode, optional) – The list of filenames to commit.
all_files (bool, optional) – Whether to commit all changed files, ignoring the files argument.

Raises:

rbtools.clients.errors.CreateCommitError – The commit message could not be created. It may have been aborted by the user.

merge(target, destination, message, author, squash=False, run_editor=False, close_branch=False, **kwargs)[source]¶

Merge the target branch with destination branch.

Parameters:

target (unicode) – The name of the branch to merge.
destination (unicode) – The name of the branch to merge into.
message (unicode) – The commit message to use.
author (object) – The author of the commit. This is expected to have fullname and email attributes.
squash (bool, optional) – Whether to squash the commits or do a plain merge. This is not used for Mercurial.
run_editor (bool, optional) – Whether to run the user’s editor on the commmit message before committing.
close_branch (bool, optional) – Whether to delete the branch after merging.
**kwargs (dict, unused) – Additional keyword arguments passed, for future expansion.

Raises:

rbtools.clients.errors.MergeError – An error occurred while merging the branch.

This will take the given patch file and apply it to the working directory.

Parameters:

patch_file (unicode) – The name of the patch file to apply.
base_path (unicode, unused) – The base path that the diff was generated in. All hg diffs are absolute to the repository root, so this is unused.
base_dir (unicode, unused) – The path of the current working directory relative to the root of the repository. All hg diffs are absolute to the repository root, so this is unused.
p (unicode, optional) – The prefix level of the diff.
