| (for details from a source code point of view, see WhatGoesWhere) <<TableOfContents>> == Data structures == '''Nodeids''' are unique ids that represent the contents of a file ''and'' its position in the project history. See [[Nodeid]]. A '''revlog''', for example {{{.hg/data/somefile.d}}}, is the most important data structure and represents all versions of a file. See [[Revlog]]. A '''manifest''' describes the state of a project by listing each file and its nodeid to specify which version. See [[Manifest]]. A '''changeset''' lists all files changed in a checkin along with a change description and metadata like user and date. See [[ChangeSet]]. == Putting it all together == We now have enough information to see how this all works together. To look up a given revision of a file: * look up the changeset in the changeset index * reconstruct the changeset data from the revlog * look up the manifest nodeid from the changeset in the manifest index * reconstruct the manifest for that revision * find the nodeid for the file in that revision * look up the revision of that file in the file's index * reconstruct the file revision from the revlog If we want to go the other way and find the changeset associated with a given file revision, we follow the linkrev. {{{ .--------linkrev-------------. v | .---------. .--------. .--------. |changeset| .->|manifest| .->|file |---. |index | | |index | | |index | |--. `---------' | `--------' | `--------' | | | | | | | `-------' | V | V | V `-------' .---------. | .--------. | .---------. |changeset|-' |manifest|-' |file | |data | |data | |revision | `---------' `--------' `---------' }}} == Tracking Working Directory State == The other piece of Mercurial is the [[WorkingDirectory|working directory]]. Mercurial tracks various information about the working directory. See DirState. == Merging == See [[Merge]]. == Rollback == See [[Rollback]]. == References == * ''"Towards a Better SCM: Revlog and Mercurial"'', Matt Mackall ([[attachment:Presentations/ols-mercurial-paper.pdf|PDF]]) * ''[[http://hgbook.red-bean.com/hgbookch4.html#x8-640004|"Behind the scenes"]]'' in ''[[http://hgbook.red-bean.com/hgbook.html|"Distributed revision control with Mercurial"]]'', Bryan O’Sullivan see also: [[Presentations]] ---- CategoryInternals |
