Casestop Extension

This extension is not distributed with Mercurial.

Author: Friedrich Kastner-Masilko

Download site: http://bitbucket.org/face/timestamp/ (Developed with Mercurial 1.1.2 - works with 1.2)

This extension is still in alpha, use it at your own risk.

Overview

This extension stops you from commiting a CaseFolding collision. In the current version of Mercurial, it is possible to introduce case-folding collisions by means of Merge and RebaseExtension while using a repository solely on case-folding file-systems like NTFS. In addition, such a collision can not be detected by the user until he tries to update back to this commit.

Furthermore, on projects using repos shared by users of Windows and POSIX-systems, it is easy for a POSIX user to cause the Windows folks a hard time. With this extension, you'll be stopped before commiting the crime...

Configuration

Configure your .hgrc to enable the precommit hook:

[hooks]
precommit.casestop = python:hgext.casestop.hook
