New Evolve extension release: version 11.1.1

 2024-02-05

We released a new version of the evolve extension: 11.1.1.

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 is a bugfix release. Bugs related to wire protocol and topic namespaces were fixed: hg incoming works correctly again (see issue6856), pushing via ssh shouldn't produce any errors related to tns_heads method on the peer. hg pick was made to always use current topic for the resulting changesets (see issue6406), including when users don't have any set (in which case the resulting changeset will not have any topic, regardless of what the original changeset had). Default topic namespace value (which at first was "default", but in 1.1.0 it was changed to "none") won't get stored on disk and will actively be removed now (topic extension will do it for at least a couple of releases) to avoid any confusion when using different versions of topic extension on the same repo. There were some improvements in handling topics and topic namespaces that aren't ASCII-only. The evolve and topic extensions were also marked as compatible with Mercurial 6.6, although no code changes were required.

Thanks to all the people involved:

Evolve: 11.1.1

  • compatibility with Mercurial 6.6

  • evolve: fix typo in "mercurial" and let hasmemmergestate be True sometimes

  • topic: internal config option to fix hg pick behavior (issue6406)

  • topic: use the appropriate functions to change topic and topic namespace on working directory update and don't write empty/default values to disk

  • topic namespaces: check that user-provided topic namespace names are human-readable like topics

  • topic namespaces: add tns_heads method to wirepeer directly instead of using a subclass
  • topic namespaces: remove .hg/topic-namespace file if it has the default value ("none")
