HGCommand Installation *hgcommand-install* - -The HGCommand plugin comprises two files, hgcommand.vim and hgcommand.txt -(this file). In order to install the plugin, place the hgcommand.vim file -into a plugin' directory in your runtime path (please see |add-global-plugin| -and |'runtimepath'|. - -HGCommand may be customized by setting variables, creating maps, and -specifying event handlers. Please see |hgcommand-customize| for more -details. - -This help file can be included in the VIM help system by copying it into a -'doc' directory in your runtime path and then executing the |:helptags| -command, specifying the full path of the 'doc' directory. Please see -|add-local-help| for more details. - -============================================================================== - -3. HGCommand Intro *hgcommand* - *hgcommand-intro* - -The HGCommand plugin provides global ex commands for manipulating -HG-controlled source files. In general, each command operates on the current -buffer and accomplishes a separate hg function, such as update, commit, log, -and others (please see |hgcommand-commands| for a list of all available -commands). The results of each operation are displayed in a scratch buffer. -Several buffer variables are defined for those scratch buffers (please see -|hgcommand-buffer-variables|). - -The notion of "current file" means either the current buffer, or, in the case -of a directory buffer, the file on the current line within the buffer. - -For convenience, any HGCommand invoked on a HGCommand scratch buffer acts as -though it was invoked on the original file and splits the screen so that the -output appears in a new window. - -Many of the commands accept revisions as arguments. By default, most operate -on the most recent revision on the current branch if no revision is specified -(though see |HGCommandInteractive| to prompt instead). - -Each HGCommand is mapped to a key sequence starting with the -keystroke. The default mappings may be overridden by supplying different -mappings before the plugin is loaded, such as in the vimrc, in the standard -fashion for plugin mappings. For examples, please see -|hgcommand-mappings-override|. - -The HGCommand plugin may be configured in several ways. For more details, -please see |hgcommand-customize|. - -============================================================================== - -4. HGCommand Manual *hgcommand-manual* - -4.1 HGCommand commands *hgcommand-commands* - -HGCommand defines the following commands: - -|:HGAdd| -|:HGAnnotate| -|:HGCommit| -|:HGDiff| -|:HGGotoOriginal| -|:HGLog| -|:HGRevert| -|:HGReview| -|:HGStatus| -|:HGUnedit| -|:HGUpdate| -|:HGVimDiff| - -:HGAdd *:HGAdd* - -This command performs "hg add" on the current file. Please note, this does -not commit the newly-added file. - -:HGAnnotate *:HGAnnotate* - -This command performs "hg annotate" on the current file. If an argument is -given, the argument is used as a revision number to display. If not given an -argument, it uses the most recent version of the file on the current branch. -Additionally, if the current buffer is a HGAnnotate buffer already, the -version number on the current line is used. - -If the |HGCommandAnnotateParent| variable is set to a non-zero value, the -version previous to the one on the current line is used instead. This allows -one to navigate back to examine the previous version of a line. - -The filetype of the HGCommand scratch buffer is set to 'HGAnnotate', to take -advantage of the bundled syntax file. - - -:HGCommit[!] *:HGCommit* - -If called with arguments, this performs "hg commit" using the arguments as -the log message. - -If '!' is used with no arguments, an empty log message is committed. - -If called with no arguments, this is a two-step command. The first step opens -a buffer to accept a log message. When that buffer is written, it is -automatically closed and the file is committed using the information from that -log message. The commit can be abandoned if the log message buffer is deleted -or wiped before being written. - -Alternatively, the mapping that is used to invoke :HGCommit (by default -hgc) can be used in the log message buffer to immediately commit. -This -is useful if the |HGCommandCommitOnWrite| variable is set to 0 to disable the -normal commit-on-write behavior. - -:HGDiff *:HGDiff* - -With no arguments, this performs "hg diff" on the current file against the -current repository version. - -With one argument, "hg diff" is performed on the current file against the -specified revision. - -With two arguments, hg diff is performed between the specified -revisions of the current file. - -This command uses the 'HGCommandDiffOpt' variable to specify diff options. -If that variable does not exist, then 'wbBc' is assumed. If you wish to have -no options, then set it to the empty string. - - -This command performs "hg edit" on the current file. - -:HGGotoOriginal *:HGGotoOriginal* - -This command returns the current window to the source buffer, if the current -buffer is a HG command output buffer. - -:HGGotoOriginal! - -Like ":HGGotoOriginal" but also executes :bufwipeout on all HG command -output buffers for the source buffer. - -:HGLog *:HGLog* - -Performs "hg log" on the current file. - -If an argument is given, it is passed as an argument to the "-r" option of -"hg log". - -:HGRevert *:HGRevert* - -Replaces the current file with the most recent version from the repository in -order to wipe out any undesired changes. - -:HGReview *:HGReview* - -Retrieves a particular version of the current file. If no argument is given, -the most recent version of the file on the current branch is retrieved. -Otherwise, the specified version is retrieved. - -:HGStatus *:HGStatus* - -Performs "hg status" on the current file. - -:HGUnedit *:HGUnedit* - -Performs "hg unedit" on the current file. Again, yes, the output buffer here -is basically useless. - -:HGUpdate *:HGUpdate* - -Performs "hg update" on the current file. This intentionally does not -automatically reload the current buffer, though vim should prompt the user to -do so if the underlying file is altered by this command. - -:HGVimDiff *:HGVimDiff* - -With no arguments, this prompts the user for a revision and then uses vimdiff -to display the differences between the current file and the specified -revision. If no revision is specified, the most recent version of the file on -the current branch is used. - -With one argument, that argument is used as the revision as above. With two -arguments, the differences between the two revisions is displayed using -vimdiff. - -With either zero or one argument, the original buffer is used to perform the -vimdiff. When the other buffer is closed, the original buffer will be -returned to normal mode. - -Once vimdiff mode is started using the above methods, additional vimdiff -buffers may be added by passing a single version argument to the command. -There may be up to 4 vimdiff buffers total. - -Using the 2-argument form of the command resets the vimdiff to only those 2 -versions. Additionally, invoking the command on a different file will close -the previous vimdiff buffers. - - -4.2 Mappings *hgcommand-mappings* - -By default, a mapping is defined for each command. These mappings execute the -default (no-argument) form of each command. - -hga HGAdd -hgn HGAnnotate -hgc HGCommit -hgd HGDiff -hgg HGGotoOriginal -hgG HGGotoOriginal! -hgl HGLog -hgr HGReview -hgs HGStatus -hgt HGUnedit -hgu HGUpdate -hgv HGVimDiff - - *hgcommand-mappings-override* - -The default mappings can be overriden by user-provided instead by mapping to -CommandName. This is especially useful when these mappings collide with -other existing mappings (vim will warn of this during plugin initialization, -but will not clobber the existing mappings). - -For instance, to override the default mapping for :HGAdd to set it to '\add', -add the following to the vimrc: - -nmap \add HGAdd - -4.3 Automatic buffer variables *hgcommand-buffer-variables* - -Several buffer variables are defined in each HGCommand result buffer. These -may be useful for additional customization in callbacks defined in the event -handlers (please see |hgcommand-events|). - -The following variables are automatically defined: - -b:hgOrigBuffNR *b:hgOrigBuffNR* - -This variable is set to the buffer number of the source file. - -b:hgcmd *b:hgcmd* - -This variable is set to the name of the hg command that created the result -buffer. -============================================================================== - -5. Configuration and customization *hgcommand-customize* - *hgcommand-config* - -The HGCommand plugin can be configured in two ways: by setting configuration -variables (see |hgcommand-options|) or by defining HGCommand event handlers -(see |hgcommand-events|). Additionally, the HGCommand plugin provides -several option for naming the HG result buffers (see |hgcommand-naming|) and -supported a customized status line (see |hgcommand-statusline| and -|hgcommand-buffer-management|). - -5.1 HGCommand configuration variables *hgcommand-options* - -Several variables affect the plugin's behavior. These variables are checked -at time of execution, and may be defined at the window, buffer, or global -level and are checked in that order of precedence. - - -The following variables are available: - -|HGCommandAnnotateParent| -|HGCommandCommitOnWrite| -|HGCommandHGExec| -|HGCommandDeleteOnHide| -|HGCommandDiffOpt| -|HGCommandDiffSplit| -|HGCommandEdit| -|HGCommandEnableBufferSetup| -|HGCommandInteractive| -|HGCommandNameMarker| -|HGCommandNameResultBuffers| -|HGCommandSplit| - -HGCommandAnnotateParent *HGCommandAnnotateParent* - -This variable, if set to a non-zero value, causes the zero-argument form of -HGAnnotate when invoked on a HGAnnotate buffer to go to the version previous -to that displayed on the current line. If not set, it defaults to 0. - -HGCommandCommitOnWrite *HGCommandCommitOnWrite* - -This variable, if set to a non-zero value, causes the pending hg commit -to take place immediately as soon as the log message buffer is written. -If set to zero, only the HGCommit mapping will cause the pending commit to -occur. If not set, it defaults to 1. - -HGCommandHGExec *HGCommandHGExec* - -This variable controls the executable used for all HG commands If not set, -it defaults to "hg". - -HGCommandDeleteOnHide *HGCommandDeleteOnHide* - -This variable, if set to a non-zero value, causes the temporary HG result -buffers to automatically delete themselves when hidden. - -HGCommandDiffOpt *HGCommandDiffOpt* - -This variable, if set, determines the options passed to the diff command of -HG. If not set, it defaults to 'wbBc'. - -HGCommandDiffSplit *HGCommandDiffSplit* - -This variable overrides the |HGCommandSplit| variable, but only for buffers -created with |:HGVimDiff|. - -HGCommandEdit *HGCommandEdit* - -This variable controls whether the original buffer is replaced ('edit') or -split ('split'). If not set, it defaults to 'edit'. - -HGCommandEnableBufferSetup *HGCommandEnableBufferSetup* - -This variable, if set to a non-zero value, activates HG buffer management -mode see (|hgcommand-buffer-management|). This mode means that two buffer -variables, 'HGRevision' and 'HGBranch', are set if the file is -HG-controlled. This is useful for displaying version information in the -status bar. - -HGCommandInteractive *HGCommandInteractive* - -This variable, if set to a non-zero value, causes appropriate commands (for -the moment, only |:HGReview|) to query the user for a revision to use instead -of the current revision if none is specified. - -HGCommandNameMarker *HGCommandNameMarker* - -This variable, if set, configures the special attention-getting characters -that appear on either side of the hg buffer type in the buffer name. This -has no effect unless |HGCommandNameResultBuffers| is set to a true value. If -not set, it defaults to '_'. - -HGCommandNameResultBuffers *HGCommandNameResultBuffers* - -This variable, if set to a true value, causes the hg result buffers to be -named in the old way (' __'). If not set -or set to a false value, the result buffer is nameless. - -HGCommandSplit *HGCommandSplit* - -This variable controls the orientation of the various window splits that -may occur (such as with HGVimDiff, when using a HG command on a HG -command buffer, or when the |HGCommandEdit| variable is set to 'split'. -If set to 'horizontal', the resulting windows will be on stacked on top of -one another. If set to 'vertical', the resulting windows will be -side-by-side. If not set, it defaults to 'horizontal' for all but -HGVimDiff windows. - -5.2 HGCommand events *hgcommand-events* - -For additional customization, HGCommand can trigger user-defined events. -Event handlers are provided by defining User event autocommands (see -|autocommand|, |User|) in the HGCommand group with patterns matching the -event name. - -For instance, the following could be added to the vimrc to provide a 'q' -mapping to quit a HGCommand scratch buffer: - -augroup HGCommand - au HGCommand User HGBufferCreated silent! nmap q: bwipeout -augroup END - -The following hooks are available: - -HGBufferCreated This event is fired just after a hg command - result buffer is created and filled with the - result of a hg command. It is executed within - the context of the HG command buffer. The - HGCommand buffer variables may be useful for - handlers of this event (please see - |hgcommand-buffer-variables|). - -HGBufferSetup This event is fired just after HG buffer setup - occurs, if enabled. - -HGPluginInit This event is fired when the HGCommand plugin - first loads. - -HGPluginFinish This event is fired just after the HGCommand - plugin loads. - -HGVimDiffFinish This event is fired just after the HGVimDiff - command executes to allow customization of, - for instance, window placement and focus. - -5.3 HGCommand buffer naming *hgcommand-naming* - -By default, the buffers containing the result of HG commands are nameless -scratch buffers. It is intended that buffer variables of those buffers be -used to customize the statusline option so that the user may fully control the -display of result buffers. - -If the old-style naming is desired, please enable the -|HGCommandNameResultBuffers| variable. Then, each result buffer will receive -a unique name that includes the source file name, the HG command, and any -extra data (such as revision numbers) that were part of the command. - -5.4 HGCommand status line support *hgcommand-statusline* - -It is intended that the user will customize the |'statusline'| option to -include HG result buffer attributes. A sample function that may be used in -the |'statusline'| option is provided by the plugin, HGGetStatusLine(). In -order to use that function in the status line, do something like the -following: - -set statusline=%<%f\ %{HGGetStatusLine()}\ %h%m%r%=%l,%c%V\ %P - -of which %{HGGetStatusLine()} is the relevant portion. - -The sample HGGetStatusLine() function handles both HG result buffers and -HG-managed files if HGCommand buffer management is enabled (please see -|hgcommand-buffer-management|). - -5.5 HGCommand buffer management *hgcommand-buffer-management* - -The HGCommand plugin can operate in buffer management mode, which means that -it attempts to set two buffer variables ('HGRevision' and 'HGBranch') upon -entry into a buffer. This is rather slow because it means that 'hg status' -will be invoked at each entry into a buffer (during the |BufEnter| -autocommand). - -This mode is disabled by default. In order to enable it, set the -|HGCommandEnableBufferSetup| variable to a true (non-zero) value. Enabling -this mode simply provides the buffer variables mentioned above. The user must -explicitly include those in the |'statusline'| option if they are to appear in -the status line (but see |hgcommand-statusline| for a simple way to do that). - -============================================================================== - -6. SSH "integration" *hgcommand-ssh* - -The following instructions are intended for use in integrating the -hgcommand.vim plugin with an SSH-based HG environment. - -Familiarity with SSH and HG are assumed. - -These instructions assume that the intent is to have a message box pop up in -order to allow the user to enter a passphrase. If, instead, the user is -comfortable using certificate-based authentication, then only instructions -6.1.1 and 6.1.2 (and optionally 6.1.4) need to be followed; ssh should then -work transparently. - -6.1 Environment settings *hgcommand-ssh-env* - -6.1.1 HGROOT should be set to something like: - - :ext:user@host:/path_to_repository - -6.1.2 HG_RSH should be set to: - - ssh - - Together, those settings tell HG to use ssh as the transport when - performing HG calls. - -6.1.3 SSH_ASKPASS should be set to the password-dialog program. In my case, - running gnome, it's set to: - - /usr/libexec/openssh/gnome-ssh-askpass - - This tells SSH how to get passwords if no input is available. - -6.1.4 OPTIONAL. You may need to set SSH_SERVER to the location of the hg - executable on the remote (server) machine. - -6.2 HG wrapper program *hgcommand-ssh-wrapper* - -Now you need to convince SSH to use the password-dialog program. This means -you need to execute SSH (and therefore HG) without standard input. The -following script is a simple perl wrapper that dissasociates the HG command -from the current terminal. Specific steps to do this may vary from system to -system; the following example works for me on linux. - -#!/usr/bin/perl -w -use strict; -use POSIX qw(setsid); -open STDIN, '/dev/null'; -fork and do {wait; exit;}; -setsid; -exec('hg', @ARGV); - -6.3 Configuring hgcommand.vim *hgcommand-ssh-config* - -At this point, you should be able to use your wrapper script to invoke HG with -various commands, and get the password dialog. All that's left is to make HG -use your newly-created wrapper script. - -6.3.1 Tell hgcommand.vim what HG executable to use. The easiest way to do this - is globally, by putting the following in your .vimrc: - - let HGCommandHGExec=/path/to/hg/wrapper/script - -6.4 Where to go from here *hgcommand-ssh-other* - -The script given above works even when non-SSH HG connections are used, -except possibly when interactively entering the message for HG commit log -(depending on the editor you use... VIM works fine). Since the hgcommand.vim -plugin handles that message without a terminal, the wrapper script can be used -all the time. - -This allows mixed-mode operation, where some work is done with SSH-based HG -repositories, and others with pserver or local access. - -It is possible, though beyond the scope of the plugin, to dynamically set the -HG executable based on the HGROOT for the file being edited. The user -events provided (such as HGBufferCreated and HGBufferSetup) can be used to -set a buffer-local value (b:HGCommandHGExec) to override the HG executable -on a file-by-file basis. Alternatively, much the same can be done (less -automatically) by the various project-oriented plugins out there. - -It is highly recommended for ease-of-use that certificates with no passphrase -or ssh-agent are employed so that the user is not given the password prompt -too often. - -============================================================================== -9. Tips *hgcommand-tips* - -9.1 Split window annotation, by Michael Anderson - -:nmap hgN :vshhgn:vertical res 40 - \ggdddd:set scb:set nowraplgg:set scb - \:set nowrap - -This splits the buffer vertically, puts an annotation on the left (minus the -header) with the width set to 40. An editable/normal copy is placed on the -right. The two versions are scroll locked so they move as one. and wrapping -is turned off so that the lines line up correctly. The advantages are... - -1) You get a versioning on the right. -2) You can still edit your own code. -3) Your own code still has syntax highlighting. - -============================================================================== - -8. Known bugs *hgcommand-bugs* - -Please let me know if you run across any. - -HGVimDiff, when using the original (real) source buffer as one of the diff -buffers, uses some hacks to try to restore the state of the original buffer -when the scratch buffer containing the other version is destroyed. There may -still be bugs in here, depending on many configuration details. - -vim:tw=78:ts=8:ft=help
