I can't get Tortoisehg (1.0) to work with subrepos
I have a directory structure like this:
root
.hg
.hgsub
.hgsubstate
Customer1
Project1
.hg
foo.txt
Project2
.hg
Customer2
Project3
.hg
the .hgsub file under root looks like
Customer1\Project1=Customer1\Project1
Customer1\Project2=Customer1\Project2
Customer2\Project3=Customer2\Project3
If modify the file Customer1\Project1\foo.txt
and commit from the root it works
>hg ci -m "command line commit"
committing subrepository customer1\project1
in Tortoisehg customer1\project1
is displayed with status S
(subrepo)
but when commiting I get a message
abort: customer1/project1: no match under directory!
Is this scenario not supported or am I doing something wrong?
The doc says:
"TortoiseHg 1.0 introduced rudimentary support for subrepositories, and only in the commit / status tool. When Mercurial considers a subrepo as dirty, it will appear in the commit tool as a special entry in the file list with a status of S. If a subrepo is included in the file list of a commit, the subrepo is committed along with the other changes, updating the .hgsubstate file in the main repository root."
TortoiseHg is a Windows shell extension and a series of applications for the Mercurial distributed revision control system that includes a Gnome/Nautilus extension and a CLI wrapper application to be able to used on non-Windows platforms.
Subrepositories is a feature that allows you to treat a collection of repositories as a group. This will allow you to clone, commit to, push, and pull projects and their associated libraries as a group.
From the revision history viewer (TortoiseHg ‣ Workbench or thg log) open the context menu over the changeset which you want to merge and select Merge with local…. Finally, in the merge dialog, press Merge and then Commit.
Adding my 2 cents.
I was receiving this error abort: customer1/project1: no match under directory
on Windows in the following scenario:
MyFolder
(note the upper case)myfolder/filename.ext
(note the lowercase)Everything works fine, commandline commits work fine, but Tortoise complains.
Rename the files (find the lowercase ones using hg status --all
and you're fine)
