hgweb: break templater -> templater circular reference The problem were some functions passed in the "defaults" argument during the templater creation which use "self.t" directly. This creates the cycle: hgweb object -> templater object -> defaults dict -> footer function -> hgweb object Instead of completely avoding the cycle, we break it after using the templater.

hg init a

echo % push should push to default when default-push not set
hg --cwd b push | sed 's/pushing to.*/pushing/'

echo % push should push to default-push when set
echo 'default-push = ../c' >> b/.hg/hgrc
hg --cwd b push | sed 's/pushing to.*/pushing/'
