purge: abort with missing files avoiding problems with name-mangling fs
In a name mangling filesystem (e.g. a case insensitive one)
dirstate.walk() can yield filenames different from the ones
stored in the dirstate. This already confuses the status and
add commands, but with purge this may cause data loss.
To prevent this purge refuses to work if there are missing
files and has a 'force' option if the user knows it is safe.
Even with the force option purge checks if any of the missing
files is still available in the working dir: if so there
may be some problem with the underlying filesystem, so it
unconditionally aborts.

| 39 r''' | |
| 40 HGEDITOR:: | |
| 41 This is the name of the editor to use when committing. Defaults to the | |
| 42 value of EDITOR. | |
| 43 | |
| 44 (deprecated, use .hgrc) | |
| 45 | |
| 46 HGENCODING:: | |
| 47 This overrides the default locale setting detected by Mercurial. | |
| 48 This setting is used to convert data including usernames, | |
| 49 changeset descriptions, tag names, and branches. This setting can | |
| 50 be overridden with the --encoding command-line option. | |
| 51 | |
| 52 HGENCODINGMODE:: | |
| 53 This sets Mercurial's behavior for handling unknown characters | |
| 54 while transcoding user inputs. The default is "strict", which | |
| 55 causes Mercurial to abort if it can't translate a character. Other | |
| 56 settings include "replace", which replaces unknown characters, and | |
| 57 "ignore", which drops them. This setting can be overridden with | |
| 58 the --encodingmode command-line option. | |
| 59 | |
| 60 HGMERGE:: | |
| 61 An executable to use for resolving merge conflicts. The program | |
| 62 will be executed with three arguments: local file, remote file, | |
| 63 ancestor file. | |
| 64 | |
| 65 The default program is "hgmerge", which is a shell script provided | |
| 66 by Mercurial with some sensible defaults. | |
| 67 | |
| 68 (deprecated, use .hgrc) | |
| 69 | |
| 70 HGRCPATH:: | |
| 71 A list of files or directories to search for hgrc files. Item | |
| 72 separator is ":" on Unix, ";" on Windows. If HGRCPATH is not set, | |
| 73 platform default search path is used. If empty, only .hg/hgrc of | |
| 74 current repository is read. | |
| 75 | |
| 76 For each element in path, if a directory, all entries in directory | |
| 77 ending with ".rc" are added to path. Else, element itself is | |
| 78 added to path. | |
| 79 | |
| 80 HGUSER:: | |
| 81 This is the string used for the author of a commit. | |
| 82 | |
| 83 (deprecated, use .hgrc) | |
| 84 | |
| 85 EMAIL:: | |
| 86 If HGUSER is not set, this will be used as the author for a commit. | |
| 87 | |
| 88 LOGNAME:: | |
| 89 If neither HGUSER nor EMAIL is set, LOGNAME will be used (with | |
| 90 '@hostname' appended) as the author value for a commit. | |
| 91 | |
| 92 EDITOR:: | |
| 93 This is the name of the editor used in the hgmerge script. It will be | |
| 94 used for commit messages if HGEDITOR isn't set. Defaults to 'vi'. | |
| 95 | |
| 96 PYTHONPATH:: | |
| 97 This is used by Python to find imported modules and may need to be set | |
| 98 appropriately if Mercurial is not installed system-wide. | |

| 101 "patterns|File Name Patterns": r''' | |
| 102 Mercurial accepts several notations for identifying one or more | |
| 103 files at a time. | |
| 104 | |
| 105 By default, Mercurial treats filenames as shell-style extended | |
| 106 glob patterns. | |
| 107 | |
| 108 Alternate pattern notations must be specified explicitly. | |
| 109 | |
| 110 To use a plain path name without any pattern matching, start a | |
| 111 name with "path:". These path names must match completely, from | |
| 112 the root of the current repository. | |
| 113 | |
| 114 To use an extended glob, start a name with "glob:". Globs are | |
| 115 rooted at the current directory; a glob such as "*.c" will match | |
| 116 files ending in ".c" in the current directory only. | |
| 117 | |
| 118 The supported glob syntax extensions are "**" to match any string | |
| 119 across path separators, and "{a,b}" to mean "a or b". | |
| 120 | |
| 121 To use a Perl/Python regular expression, start a name with "re:". | |
| 122 Regexp pattern matching is anchored at the root of the repository. | |
| 123 | |
| 124 Plain examples: | |
| 125 | |
| 126 path:foo/bar a name bar in a directory named foo in the root of | |
| 127 the repository | |
| 128 path:path:name a file or directory named "path:name" | |
| 129 | |
| 130 Glob examples: | |
| 131 | |
| 132 glob:*.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory | |
| 133 *.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory | |
| 134 **.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory, or | |
| 135 any subdirectory | |
| 136 foo/*.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo | |
| 137 foo/**.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo, or any | |
| 138 subdirectory | |
| 139 | |
| 140 Regexp examples: | |
| 141 | |
| 142 re:.*\.c$ any name ending in ".c", anywhere in the repository | |
