generate-working-copy-states.py #1

# Helper script used for generating history and working copy files and content.
# The file's name corresponds to its history. The number of changesets can
# be specified on the command line. With 2 changesets, files with names like
# content1_content2_content1-untracked are generated. The first two filename
# segments describe the contents in the two changesets. The third segment
# ("content1-untracked") describes the state in the working copy, i.e.
# the file has content "content1" and is untracked (since it was previously
# tracked, it has been forgotten).
#
# This script generates the filenames and their content, but it's up to the
# caller to tell hg about the state.
#
# There are two subcommands:
#   filelist <numchangesets>
#   state <numchangesets> (<changeset>|wc)
#
# Typical usage:
#
# $ python $TESTDIR/generate-working-copy-states.py state 2 1
# $ hg addremove --similarity 0
# $ hg commit -m 'first'
#
# $ python $TESTDIR/generate-working-copy-states.py state 2 1
# $ hg addremove --similarity 0
# $ hg commit -m 'second'
#
# $ python $TESTDIR/generate-working-copy-states.py state 2 wc
# $ hg addremove --similarity 0
# $ hg forget *_*_*-untracked
# $ rm *_*_missing-*

# Generates pairs of (filename, contents), where 'contents' is a list
# describing the file's content at each revision (or in the working copy).
# At each revision, it is either None or the file's actual content. When not
# None, it may be either new content or the same content as an earlier
# revisions, so all of (modified,clean,added,removed) can be tested.
