# HG changeset patch # User Benoit Boissinot # Date 1141084129 -3600 # Node ID 7956893e8458c601dc0193a9f0d8a12d8f5ebc71 # Parent 6cb548cffdf5ada516a66a7453d90eae5df2b50c generate hg manpage from commands.py docstring gendoc.py is a script generating a part of the manpage (the commands help and options) from the docstring in commands.py. It avoids duplicating the doc between the doc/ directory and the docstrings. To generate the manpage, 'make doc' will create all the necessary intermediate files. diff -r 6cb548cffdf5 -r 7956893e8458 doc/Makefile --- a/doc/Makefile Tue Feb 28 00:46:06 2006 +0100 +++ b/doc/Makefile Tue Feb 28 00:48:49 2006 +0100 @@ -8,6 +8,12 @@ html: $(HTML) +hg.1.txt: hg.1.gendoc.txt + touch hg.1.txt + +hg.1.gendoc.txt: + python gendoc.py > $@ + %: %.xml xmlto man $*.xml diff -r 6cb548cffdf5 -r 7956893e8458 doc/gendoc.py --- /dev/null Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 +0000 +++ b/doc/gendoc.py Tue Feb 28 00:48:49 2006 +0100 @@ -0,0 +1,92 @@ +import sys, textwrap +# import from the live mercurial repo +sys.path.insert(0, "..") +from mercurial.commands import table, globalopts +from mercurial.i18n import gettext as _ + +def get_desc(docstr): + if not docstr: + return "", "" + # sanitize + docstr = docstr.strip("\n") + docstr = docstr.rstrip() + shortdesc = docstr.splitlines()[0].strip() + + i = docstr.find("\n") + if i != -1: + desc = docstr[i+2:] + else: + desc = " %s" % shortdesc + return (shortdesc, desc) + +def get_opts(opts): + for shortopt, longopt, default, desc in opts: + allopts = [] + if shortopt: + allopts.append("-%s" % shortopt) + if longopt: + allopts.append("--%s" % longopt) + desc += default and _(" (default: %s)") % default or "" + yield(", ".join(allopts), desc) + +def get_cmd(cmd): + d = {} + attr = table[cmd] + cmds = cmd.lstrip("^").split("|") + + d['synopsis'] = attr[2] + d['cmd'] = cmds[0] + d['aliases'] = cmd.split("|")[1:] + d['desc'] = get_desc(attr[0].__doc__) + d['opts'] = list(get_opts(attr[1])) + return d + + +def show_doc(ui): + def bold(s, text=""): + ui.write("%s\n%s\n%s\n" % (s, "="*len(s), text)) + def underlined(s, text=""): + ui.write("%s\n%s\n%s\n" % (s, "-"*len(s), text)) + + # print options + underlined(_("OPTIONS")) + for optstr, desc in get_opts(globalopts): + ui.write("%s::\n %s\n\n" % (optstr, desc)) + + # print cmds + underlined(_("COMMANDS")) + h = {} + for c, attr in table.items(): + f = c.split("|")[0] + f = f.lstrip("^") + h[f] = c + cmds = h.keys() + cmds.sort() + + for f in cmds: + if f.startswith("debug"): continue + d = get_cmd(h[f]) + # synopsis + ui.write("%s::\n" % d['synopsis'].replace("hg ","", 1)) + # description + ui.write("%s\n\n" % d['desc'][1]) + # options + opt_output = list(d['opts']) + if opt_output: + opts_len = max([len(line[0]) for line in opt_output]) + ui.write(_(" options:\n")) + for optstr, desc in opt_output: + if desc: + s = "%-*s %s" % (opts_len, optstr, desc) + else: + s = optstr + s = textwrap.fill(s, initial_indent=4 * " ", + subsequent_indent=(6 + opts_len) * " ") + ui.write("%s\n" % s) + ui.write("\n") + # aliases + if d['aliases']: + ui.write(_(" aliases: %s\n\n") % " ".join(d['aliases'])) + +if __name__ == "__main__": + show_doc(sys.stdout) diff -r 6cb548cffdf5 -r 7956893e8458 doc/hg.1.txt --- a/doc/hg.1.txt Tue Feb 28 00:46:06 2006 +0100 +++ b/doc/hg.1.txt Tue Feb 28 00:48:49 2006 +0100 @@ -14,42 +14,6 @@ ----------- The hg(1) command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial system. -OPTIONS -------- - --R, --repository:: - repository root directory - ---cwd:: - change working directory - --y, --noninteractive:: - do not prompt, assume 'yes' for any required answers - --q, --quiet:: - suppress output - --v, --verbose:: - enable additional output - ---debug:: - enable debugging output - ---traceback:: - print traceback on exception - ---time:: - time how long the command takes - ---profile:: - print command execution profile - ---version:: - output version information and exit - --h, --help:: - display help and exit - COMMAND ELEMENTS ---------------- @@ -70,593 +34,8 @@ fast and the old-http:// protocol which is much slower but does not require a special server on the web host. -COMMANDS --------- -add [options] [files ...]:: - Schedule files to be version controlled and added to the repository. - - The files will be added to the repository at the next commit. - - If no names are given, add all files in the current directory and - its subdirectories. - -addremove [options] [files ...]:: - Add all new files and remove all missing files from the repository. - - New files are ignored if they match any of the patterns in .hgignore.

If the given - directory does not exist, it is created. - - If no directory is given, the current directory is used. - -locate [options] [files]:: - Print all files under Mercurial control whose names match the - given patterns. - - This command searches the current directory and its - subdirectories. To search an entire repository, move to the root - of the repository. - - If no patterns are given to match, this command prints all file - names. - - If you want to feed the output of this command into the "xargs" - command, use the "-0" option to both this command and "xargs". - This will avoid the problem of "xargs" treating single filenames - that contain white space as multiple filenames. - - options: - - -0, --print0 end filenames with NUL, for use with xargs - -f, --fullpath print complete paths from the filesystem root - -I, --include include names matching the given patterns - -r, --rev search the repository as it stood at rev - -X, --exclude exclude names matching the given patterns - -log [-r revision ...] [-p] [files]:: - Print the revision history of the specified files or the entire project. - - By default this command outputs: changeset id and hash, tags, - parents, user, date and time, and a summary for each commit. The - -v switch adds some more detail, such as changed files, manifest - hashes or message signatures. - - options: - -I, --include include names matching the given patterns - -X, --exclude exclude names matching the given patterns - -b, --branch show branches - -k, --keyword search for keywords - -l, --limit print no more than this many changes - -M, --no-merges do not show merges - -m, --only-merges only show merges - -r, --rev show the specified revision or range - -p, --patch show patch - - aliases: history - -manifest [revision]:: - Print a list of version controlled files for the given revision. - - The manifest is the list of files being version controlled. If no revision - is given then the tip is used. - -outgoing [-p] [dest]:: - Show changesets not found in the specified destination repo or the - default push repo.

If no name is given, show - definition of available names. - - Path names are defined in the [paths] section of /etc/mercurial/hgrc - and $HOME/.hgrc. If run inside a repository, .hg/hgrc is used, too. - -pull :: - Pull changes from a remote repository to a local one. - - This finds all changes from the repository at the specified path - or URL and adds them to the local repository. By default, this - does not update the copy of the project in the working directory. - - Valid URLs are of the form: - - local/filesystem/path - http://[user@]host[:port][/path] - https://[user@]host[:port][/path] - ssh://[user@]host[:port][/path] - - SSH requires an accessible shell account on the destination machine - and a copy of hg in the remote path. With SSH, paths are relative - to the remote user's home directory by default; use two slashes at - the start of a path to specify it as relative to the filesystem root. - - options: - -u, --update update the working directory to tip after pull - -e, --ssh specify ssh command to use - --remotecmd specify hg command to run on the remote side - -push :: - Push changes from the local repository to the given destination. - - This is the symmetrical operation for pull. It helps to move - changes from the current repository to a different one. If the - destination is local this is identical to a pull in that directory - from the current one. - - By default, push will refuse to run if it detects the result would - increase the number of remote heads. This generally indicates the - the client has forgotten to sync and merge before pushing. - - Valid URLs are of the form: - - local/filesystem/path - ssh://[user@]host[:port][/path] - - SSH requires an accessible shell account on the destination - machine and a copy of hg in the remote path. - - options: - - -f, --force force update - -e, --ssh specify ssh command to use - --remotecmd specify hg command to run on the remote side - -rawcommit [-p -d -u -F -m -l]:: - Lowlevel commit, for use in helper scripts. (DEPRECATED) - - This command is not intended to be used by normal users, as it is - primarily useful for importing from other SCMs. - - This command is now deprecated and will be removed in a future - release, please use debugsetparents and commit instead. - -recover:: - Recover from an interrupted commit or pull. - - This command tries to fix the repository status after an interrupted - operation. It should only be necessary when Mercurial suggests it. - -remove [options] [files ...]:: - Schedule the indicated files for removal from the repository. - - This command schedules the files to be removed at the next commit. - This only removes files from the current branch, not from the - entire project history. If the files still exist in the working - directory, they will be deleted from it. - - aliases: rm - -rename :: - Mark dest as copies of sources; mark sources for deletion. If - dest is a directory, copies are put in that directory. If dest is - a file, there can only be one source. - - By default, this command copies the contents of files as they - stand in the working directory. If invoked with --after, the - operation is recorded, but no copying is performed. - - This command takes effect in the next commit. - - NOTE: This command should be treated as experimental. While it - should properly record rename files, this information is not yet - fully used by merge, nor fully reported by log. - - Options: - -A, --after record a rename that has already occurred - -f, --force forcibly copy over an existing managed file - - aliases: mv - -revert [names ...]:: - The revert command has two modes of operation. - - In its default mode, it reverts any uncommitted modifications made - to the named files or directories. This restores the contents of - the affected files to an unmodified state. - - Using the -r option, it reverts the given files or directories to - their state as of an earlier revision. This can be helpful to "roll - back" some or all of a change that should not have been committed. - - Revert modifies the working directory. It does not commit any - changes, or change the parent of the current working directory. - - If a file has been deleted, it is recreated. If the executable - mode of a file was changed, it is reset. - - If a directory is given, all files in that directory and its - subdirectories are reverted. - - If no arguments are given, all files in the current directory and - its subdirectories are reverted. - - options: - -r, --rev revision to revert to - -n, --nonrecursive do not recurse into subdirectories - -root:: - Print the root directory of the current repository. - -serve [options]:: - Start a local HTTP repository browser and pull server. - - By default, the server logs accesses to stdout and errors to - stderr. Use the "-A" and "-E" options to log to files. - - options: - -A, --accesslog name of access log file to write to - -d, --daemon run server in background, as a daemon - -E, --errorlog name of error log file to write to - -a, --address address to use - -p, --port port to use (default: 8000) - -n, --name name to show in web pages (default: working dir) - --pid-file write server process ID to given file - -t, --templatedir web templates to use - -6, --ipv6 use IPv6 in addition to IPv4 - -status [options] [files]:: - Show changed files in the working directory. If no names are - given, all files are shown. Otherwise, only files matching the - given names are shown. - - The codes used to show the status of files are: - - M = changed - A = added - R = removed - ? = not tracked - - options: - - -m, --modified show only modified files - -a, --added show only added files - -r, --removed show only removed files - -u, --unknown show only unknown (not tracked) files - -n, --no-status hide status prefix - -0, --print0 end filenames with NUL, for use with xargs - -I, --include include names matching the given patterns - -X, --exclude exclude names matching the given patterns - -tag [-l -m -d -u ] [revision]:: - Name a particular revision using . - - Tags are used to name particular revisions of the repository and are - very useful to compare different revision, to go back to significant - earlier versions or to mark branch points as releases, etc. - - If no revision is given, the tip is used. - - To facilitate version control, distribution, and merging of tags, - they are stored as a file named ".hgtags" which is managed - similarly to other project files and can be hand-edited if - necessary. - - options: - -l, --local make the tag local - -m, --message message for tag commit log entry - -d, --date datecode for commit - -u, --user user for commit - - Note: Local tags are not version-controlled or distributed and are - stored in the .hg/localtags file. If there exists a local tag and - a public tag with the same name, local tag is used. - -tags:: - List the repository tags. - - This lists both regular and local tags. - -tip [-p]:: - Show the tip revision. - - options: - -p, --patch show patch - -unbundle :: - (EXPERIMENTAL) - - Apply a compressed changegroup file generated by the bundle - command. - -undo:: - Undo the last commit or pull transaction. - - Roll back the last pull or commit transaction on the - repository, restoring the project to its earlier state. - - This command should be used with care. There is only one level of - undo and there is no redo. - - This command is not intended for use on public repositories. Once - a change is visible for pull by other users, undoing it locally is - ineffective. - -update [-m -C] [revision]:: - Update the working directory to the specified revision. - - By default, update will refuse to run if doing so would require - merging or discarding local changes. - - With the -m option, a merge will be performed. - - With the -C option, local changes will be lost. - - options: - -m, --merge allow merging of branches - -C, --clean overwrite locally modified files - - aliases: up checkout co - -verify:: - Verify the integrity of the current repository. - - This will perform an extensive check of the repository's - integrity, validating the hashes and checksums of each entry in - the changelog, manifest, and tracked files, as well as the - integrity of their crosslinks and indices. +include::hg.1.gendoc.txt[] FILE NAME PATTERNS ------------------
