ReHI!
Setting a CWS initially to state "new" and changing a CWS in state
"planned" to "new" is now allowed by EIS and creating a HG CWS can be
done as described in the Wiki.
Kind regards,

Hi,
Mercurial documentation as well as previous mails concerning this
topic describe that you can create a cws in EIS, and that the outgoing
repo is created when setting the state to new.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Mercurial/Cws#Creating_the_child_workspace_in_EIS
reads:
"As an alternative way you can use the EIS web fronted to create the
CWS and set it to status 'new'. Don't forget to set the SCM property
to 'HG'. "
But that's not possible, as the only choices available are planned
and finished.
Whoever wrote that paragraph didn't request a corresponding feature
for EIS from tooling :-(
Ah, that someone would be me ... I didn't realize that without having
some administration rights (which I have) it's not possible to do so.
What you can do is to create a CWS in EIS setting it to "plannned"
initially and some time later than use the "cws create" command on the
commandline afterwards to really create it and set it´s state to new.
This should work for currently used HG and previously used SVN
SourceCode Control Mangement systems.
Setting a planned CWS to 'new' or initially setting to 'new' is
currently probably only possible with some administrator rights in EIS.
If we would want to be able to directly set the CWS to 'new' in EIS
for HG based ChildWorkspaces for everyone we could probably add such a
feature, but it would eventually be some kind of tricky how to allow
that than for HG based CWS and disallow that for other CWSs which are
using other SCMs.
This point is alomost completely moot since all interesting code lines
are now on HG. And even with SVN (CVS is not a problem since modules are
tagged separately) all hope is not lost if someone switches a CWS from
planned to new without creating a CWS branch (via cws create) ... you
can always do it later with the "cws create --migrate" switch.
I would vote for allowing this.
