add dirstate debugging commands -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 add dirstate debugging commands As I've played with various different merges and more recently rawcommit, I've found the following patch to be very very helpful in figuring out whether the dirstate is being left in a consistent or inconsistent state with respect to the current manifest. I attempted to deduce the invariants that were assumed by the current code, and then check it in this code. I may or may not have captured the design intent in this check; if not, I'd be very happy to hear more clearly what was intended, so that I can write tests to that expectation. Anyway, here's the patch. Not sure if it's a good idea to commit it to the mainline, or just leave it as a debugging aid. I attempted to package it so that it doesn't interfere with normal usage.

A simple testing framework

To run the tests, do:

cd tests/
./run-tests

This finds all scripts in the test directory named test-* and executes
them. The scripts can be either shell scripts or Python. Each test is
run in a temporary directory that is removed when the test is complete.

A test-<x> succeeds if the script returns success and its output
matches test-<x>.out. If the new output doesn't match, it is stored in
test-<x>.err.

There are some tricky points here that you should be aware of when
writing tests:

- hg commit and hg up -m want user interaction

  for commit use -t "text"
  for hg up -m, set HGMERGE to something noninteractive (like true or merge)

- changeset hashes will change based on user and date which make
  things like hg history output change

  use commit -t "test" -u test -d "0 0"

- diff will show the current time

  use hg diff | sed "s/\(\(---\|+++\).*\)\t.*/\1/" to strip dates

- set -x and pipelines don't generate stable output

  turn off set -x or break pipelines into pieces
