util.opener: if requested, use atomicfile even if the file doesn't exist Right now, surprisingly enough, if you request an atomic file but the file still doesn't exist, you get a regular file. AFAICS, the only time this happens is during the initial creation of the dirstate.

#!/bin/sh

hg init a
cd a
hg init b
echo x > b/x
echo '# should print nothing'
hg st
echo '# should print ? b/x'
hg st b/x

hg add b/x

echo '# should print A b/x'
hg st
echo '# should forget b/x'
hg revert --all
echo '# should print nothing'
hg st b
