Forest Extension
This extension is not being distributed along with Mercurial.
Author: Robin Farine
Download site: [http://www.terminus.org/hg/hgforest public development repository].
Overview
The Forest extension allows operations on trees with nested Mercurial repositories, called forests.
It provides some additional commands that apply to the forest. These commands are both standard Mercurial commands, such as 'clone' or 'status', that are applied recursively, and commands that involve a snapshot file, to represent the state of a forest at a given time.
The new commands defined by the extension are: fclone, fpull, fpush, fseed, fsnap, ftrees and fupdate
Configuration
Configure your .hgrc to enable the extension by adding following lines:
[extensions] hgext.forest= # or, if forest.py is not in the hgext dir: # forest=/path/to/forest.py
Some additional configuration can be done using the '[forest]' stanza in your configuration file:
[forest] # will nested repositories directly under a .hg directory be skipped (0|no|false) or not (1|yes|true)?. # The default value is 0. (don't skip them) walkhg = (0|no|false|1|yes|true)
Usage
To clone a forest:
hg fclone [OPTIONS] SOURCE DESTINATION
To pull/push/update all repos in the forest:
hg fpull [OPTIONS] SNAPSHOT-FILE PATH-ALIAS
hg fpush [OPTIONS] SNAPSHOT-FILE PATH-ALIAS
hg fupdate [OPTIONS] (--tip | SNAPSHOT-FILE)
To take a snapshot of a forest:
hg fsnap [OPTIONS] [SNAPSHOT-FILE]
To populate a forest according to a snapshot file:
hg fseed [OPTIONS] SNAPSHOT-FILE [PATH-ALIAS]
To display the status of the forest:
hg fstatus [OPTIONS]
To list the roots of repositories:
hg ftrees [OPTIONS]
