Diff for "RequiresFile"

Differences between revisions 11 and 12

Starting with Mercurial version 0.9.2 there is a file .hg/requires which specifies the capabilities needed by a client to access this repository. It is a text file, where each line contains the name of a capability and optionally (separated by a = character from the name) a list of parameters, each separated by a comma (,).

Currently there are only capabilities which don't need parameters.

Capabilities

store
- The directory .hg/store contains the subdirectories data (see CaseFoldingPlan)
revlogv1
- RevlogNG is used.
fncache
- store files are named to work around Windows limitations described in fncacheRepoFormat.
dotencode
- Leading '.' (period) or ' ' (space) in store filenames are encoded (see 34d8247a4595, appears in 1.7).
