[naviserver-devel] Where is ChangeLog?

[Vasiljevic Z. <zv...@ar...>]

Hi!

After some (longer) absence (first things first) I am
now trying to catch-up with the Mercurial repository.

First thing that I noticed after checking out the
repository was that ChangeLog file is missing.
Any idea why? Do we not need it any more?

More questions are sure to come...

Cheers,
Zoran

That's right, it's not needed anymore.

Because of the way that mercurial works, when you 'clone' (ie. cvs
checkout) you get the whole repository on your local hard drive, not
just the HEAD (which we now call 'tip').

So, when you do a 'hg log' you can see all changes ever made without
hitting the network.

Also, if you want something easier to browse, try doing 'hg serve' and
then connecting to localhost with your browser.

OK. So I "hg clone"'d, then made chage to a  nsd/tcljob.c file
then made "hg ci".
Observing the web-view of bitbucket.org/naviserver there was
nothing changed. I do not see my commit message nor can I see
any trace of my change when inspecting files.

When I do "hg log" I SEE my changes. When I do "hg status"
I DO NOT SEE my changes file prefixed with "M", which I
suppose is OK (changes were commited).

Is this all correct? Should I be able to see my commit
messgage and status of the changed file show up in the
web-browser? Or is this somehow cached/time-skewed?
Or should I need to do some other "magic" after "hg ci" ???

I see: "hg push".

Yeah, 'commit' is local, 'clone' and 'push' are like rsync up and down.

You can also do 'incoming' and 'outgoing' to see what's pending a
'push' or 'pull'.


I haven't read this yet, but I expect it's good:

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for taking trouble to convince us to move
to Mercurial. I like the thing very much. It is
lean, simple and fast. I am contemplating about
using it for all the in-house projectss as well!

Cheers,
Zoran
