This question is similar to "Out of sync with command line" thread, but I think it addresses a larger question. My set up: running tortoise HG version 0.3 (with Mercurial-9f1e6ab76069+tortoisehg, Python-2.5.1, PyGTK-2.10.4, GTK-2.10.11) Mercurial repository is on a network share, visible to both windows and solaris. I created the repository using tortoiseHG on a mapped network drive, i.e., G:\myRepo. Everything works fine within the windows world. I have used both the tortoise GUI and mercruial via windows command prompt. However, I then tried installing a copy of mercurial on a sun box that sees this repo as an NFS mount (i.e., /nfs/myRepo) Now, when I use the solaris version of mercurial, hg status shows all the files as modified. Everything else is fine: hg tip, hg branch, hg log, etc. all have current and correct repository info when run from solaris mercurial. As an experiment, I went ahead and committed all the 'modified' files using the solaris mercurial. solaris mercurial did the commit, but now the tortoise HG shows all files as modified! Digging a little deeper, I noticed that the file permissions in the dirstate (hg debugstate) are changing from 744 (following the unix commit) to 666 (following the tortoise HG commit). Unix shows that the files on disk have a permission of 744. I then used unix chmod to set all the file permissions to 666 (read-write by anyone.) Now both tortoise hg and solaris hg agreed that there are no modified files. While the obvious work around is to chmod all files to be 666 in unix, this doesn't seem like a real solution, as it pretty much defeats the entire unix file permission mechanism. (And prevents me from marking shell scripts as executable) Is there any way to get tortoise HG to recognize the unix file permissions? Any suggestions? thanks in advance, Dave ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
