update ui.quiet/verbose/debug/interactive every time the config changes - ui.quiet/verbose/debug/interactive become just a cache of the ui.cdata settings - the quiet, verbose, debug and interactive options from the [ui] section from .hg/hgrc files are respected for commands that open the repo - setting ui.quiet/verbose/debug/interactive with --config works - the command line options always override the hgrc settings - previously it wasn't possible to override a [ui] debug = True. --debug still takes precedence over --quiet and --verbose.

#!/bin/sh

hg init

echo a > a
hg ci -d '0 0' -Ama

hg an a

echo "[ui]" >> $HGRCPATH
echo "strict=True" >> $HGRCPATH

hg an a
hg annotate a

echo % should succeed - up is an alias, not an abbreviation

hg up
