Summary: questionable format for rename-only changes in hg webrev
Product: SCM Migration
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Solaris 11/Nevada
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P5
Component: webrev
AssignedTo: scm-migration-dev at opensolaris.org
ReportedBy: mike.kupfer at sun.com
Jim Carlson recently posted a Mercurial-based webrev where a couple
files were moved to deleted_files, without any contents changes. The
links for the files looked like this:
------ ------ ------ ------ ------ --- New Patch Raw
The line looked wrong to me. Since there were no changes to the file
contents, I could see suppressing the diffs links, but it seemed like
there should be an Old link.
OTOH, this is the same as what "wx webrev" generates when a file is
moved in a Teamware workspace, so I'm not sure why Jim's webrev looked
wrong to me when "wx webrev" output does not.
One possibility is that for a Teamware workspace, wx will use this
text for the comments:
Renamed only (webrev comment generated by wx, not an sccs
comment)
Our webrev does not add any text, which is probably the desired
behavior (because unlike wx renames, hg renames will have commit log
text associated with them).
Another possibility is that wx puts rename-only changes at the bottom
of the page. For Jim's webrev, the renames were at the top.
A third possibility is that it's just been too long since I looked at
a rename in a Teamware-based webrev.
