Hi, I've ported the tests from hg-git and made sure that the output from remote-hg matches the output of hg-git. With these extensive tests I would consider this one ready for wide use. Not only do the tests pass, I've compared the generated repos of a few projects, and the SHA-1's are exactly the same :) This remote-hg has advantages other tools don't have: * Uses transport-helper (git clone hg::path) * The code is small * The code is simple * No external dependencies (other than mercurial) * It's easy to install (put into your path) * Has extensive tests * Active development * Has compatibility with hg-git * The required patches are available * No changes necesary to git core One important alternative is the one written by Sverre Rabbelier that is now maintained and distributed in msysgit. It's hard to evaluate this option as there isn't a branch specific to this remote helper so it would be possible to evaluate the necessary patches. To use it add it to your $PATH (e.g. ~/bin). % git clone hd:///full/path/or/url/to/hg/repo To run the tests: % make -C contrib/remote-hg tests The only caveat is that you need 'python' in your $PATH. Changes since v4: * Add new simple biridectional tests (no need for hg-git) * Move tests to contrib directory * Add dependency checks to the tests * Trivial fixes Changes since v3: * New extensive tests * Add compatibility mode with hg-git * Added support for boomkars * Add mercurial information to the git msg (branch, renames, extra, etc.) Changes since v2: * Added support for pushing * Tests copied from original remote-hg * Custom default -> master renames removed * Code reorganized Changes since v1: * Improved documentation * Use more common 'python' binary * Warn, don't barf when a branch has multiple heads * Fixed marks to fetch after cloned * Support for cloning/pulling remote repositories * Use a more appropriate internal directory (e.g. .git/hg/origin) * Fixes for python3 Felipe Contreras (14): Add new remote-hg transport helper remote-hg: add support for bookmarks remote-hg: add support for pushing remote-hg: add support for remote pushing remote-hg: add support to push URLs remote-hg: make sure the encoding is correct remote-hg: match hg merge behavior remote-hg: add support for hg-git compat mode remote-hg: add compat for hg-git author fixes remote-hg: fake bookmark when there's none remote-hg: add support for fake remote remote-hg: add biridectional tests remote-hg: add tests to compare with hg-git remote-hg: add extra author test contrib/remote-hg/Makefile | 13 + contrib/remote-hg/git-remote-hg | 773 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ contrib/remote-hg/test-hg-git.sh | 464 +++++++++++++++++++++++ contrib/remote-hg/test.sh | 241 ++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 1491 insertions(+) create mode 100644 contrib/remote-hg/Makefile create mode 100755 contrib/remote-hg/git-remote-hg create mode 100755 contrib/remote-hg/test-hg-git.sh create mode 100755 contrib/remote-hg/test.sh -- 1.8.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
