Looks like this doesn’t produce git-style diffs, which doesn’t help with adds/removes/renames etc.

@Mossop
From tinderbox:

Your checkin comment should include the bug#, a clear explanation of the fix, and reviewers.

We also aren’t supposed to checkin on orange, and people land all the time with orange (even bad orange).

Isn’t it part of the checkin rules to mark approvals for landings? I’m gonna get your privs revoked!

I tend to not bother. It’s clear if you open the bug that something has approval or not. I also bet this works for hg qimport

Only problem is you also need to import to mq to edit the commit message to include the approval.

Yeah, this works with hg 1.0.1 on Ubuntu as well. I also started doing “hg import -m … -u … https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?…“.

You can also use the transplant extension for this. Just stick “hgext.transplant = ” in the [extensions] section of your .hgrc, and then run hg help transplant.

@Dirkjan
I thought so to (maybe it was because you said as much on irc – can’t recall), but It’s working for me with Mercurial 1.0 on my mac.

I think this feature is hg 1.1 only, so it will only work for those who’ve upgraded…
