New Evolve extension release: version 10.2.0

2021-02-01

We released a new version of the evolve extension: 10.2.0.post1.

(There was an issue with the 10.2.0 release, so we made a 10.2.0.post1)

This extension extends core features around history rewriting and draft changesets sharing.

As usual, the release is available on PyPI and upgrade is recommended.

This version introduces support for Mercurial 5.7 and comes with a variety of improvements and bugfixes. Check the changelog for details. The most notable change are: an improved logic to decide the resolution parent for content-divergence resolution in case only one of the changesets was moved from its original position, and better handling of topics when rebasing.

Thanks to all the people involved:

Topic : 0.21.0

  • performance: speed up various operations using an in-memory cache for topic

  • rebase: prevent in-memory rebase from silently dropping topic (by disabling the feature)
