Hallow Matt!

i try to make some test, but i guess it take more then month

try explain what i fix here:
1) have repo:
     root/         - repo with hg-subs:
         /sub      - hg-subrepo, from some remote
         .hgsub  - contains /sub=[hg]<some url>
So if I understand this correctly, your top level repo has a .hgsub file with 
an absolute path (in this case a url starting with http) on the right side?  
That’s why it’s not pushing relative to where the parent repo is pushing- you 
specified an absolute location.  The recommendation is for the left and right 
side of the file to be the same (in your case “sub=sub”).  Otherwise you run 
into surprises like this.

This is not just a surprises - i  guessed using URL - that is subrepo intended for. When you pulled subrepo from remote repo, wich you not allowed for push - inevitable got this situation.

And here is still some ways to pass changes with a lot of boring manual work with subrepos, that can made with mistakes.

Another situation - if you wan`t push changes to remote, but keep it for some private work. There we get rid to using `subpaths`, you described below.

2) have copy of above repo  on local file system - usualy i use flash-drive. so call 
this copy <flash-copy>
3) try push repo into flash-copy.

current implementation push sub to it`s source <some url>. and worse - if this 
url not accesible, push fails.

This patch supposes that pushing into flash-copy expects passing changes from root/sub 
-> flash-copy/sub. And it does such push into flash-copy/sub after pushing into -> 
<some url>
If we run with --force - this patch ingnores failure on push to <some url>, so 
push -> flash-copy/sub makes anyway.
Forced push supposed success if any of <some url> or flash-copy/sub succesed.
Unfortunately, this is too complicated and breaks existing workflows.

what workflow it breaks? as i thought - hg is distributed SCM, that is desinged for a such distribution way - via any copies. If we got a complete copy of changes - there should be no problem?

  Also, I don’t think there’s an existing concept of —force => “ignore errors”.
surprised, i guessed this option exactly for errors override.  Well, some another option introduce for it?

The closest thing I can think of is overriding the check that push will add a 
new head, and I think everyone agrees that is bad (it should have been a flag 
specific to that error, not disabling all checks).

The good news is that this is a known potential problem, with an existing 
solution.  If you can’t just edit the .hgsub file to the recommended form, you 
can put a “subpaths” section in the root repo’s hgrc file.  See the end of “hg 
help subrepos”, and “hg help config.subpaths” for details.
It looks not solves my problem - i need a complete local repo copy of flash, intended for pass it on another workstation. And on different flash-drives it can be on different pathes.

So with `subpaths ` solution i need prepare for every flash-drive an personal copy of repo with hgrc turned for that pathes. Even with a few flashes it rapidly goes into nightmare.

That is why this patch designed  - for easy push to into arbitrary local-pathes. No need remember about sources, subpathes - just point destination, and get a changes on it. That behaviour, i  guess, people expected from push.


Imho `subpaths ` solution could be suitable, if subpathes declared in named sets - with name of push target. Or it alredy can?



That what this patch do.

subrepo: hg pushes into local subrepos, after with source.
        when --force claimed, subrepo push into local besides source
Can you write some *.t test to show the problem before making changes?  Then 
the test will change with the commit, and prevent future regressions.  I’m not 
sure what you’re trying to fix here.

Additionally, you should run the test-check-*.t and test-*subrepo*.t tests 
locally.  I can tell this commit message would be flagged for not following the 
usual format.  Also, an existing subrepo test might change with your change, 
and then you might not need to write your own test.

Thanks!
