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.

mkdir t
cd t

echo foo > a/a
echo bar > a/b

hg add a
hg ci -m "0" -d "0 0"

hg ci -m "1 mv a/ b/" -d "0 0"

hg co -C 0
echo baz > a/c
hg add a/c
hg ci -m "2 add a/c" -d "0 0"

hg merge --debug 1
