When a TortoiseHg "Refresh status..." starts, in a working directory of our main repo, it takes several minutes to complete [*]. This is very disruptive to workflow, so I would like to understand what could trigger TortoiseHg to refresh its status.
For example, I can imagine that changes to the following might trigger a refresh: - .hg/hgrc - personal mercurial.ini - and any files included by those If that's true, how selective is the refresh? For example, if one turned on hgeol, a refresh would be required. But if one changed IssueTracking settings only (tortoisehg.issue.regex or tortoisehg.issue.link), would a "Refresh status..." be required? (How clever is it at analysing the nature of the changes) And what about commits, pushes, pulls and updates - do they all trigger checks? So, is there any list or documentation anywhere that says what triggers "Refresh status..." please?
