I just cloned the complete TL JDK8 forest by cloning the top repo then
using get_source.sh to clone the other repos (open and closed).
At the top-level hgdefpath shows
/export/users/dh198349/jdk8 > hg defpath
default = http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/
default-push = None
I then went into the jdk repo to run "hg defpath -dgu dholmes" and got:
abort: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl//jdk: Repository not found
No hgrc files updated
Note the // prior to jdk. If I edit .hgrc/hgrc to change that to a / the
defpath works.
Note that clones/pulls etc don't care about the // but the "defpath -dg"
does.
All of the clones initiated via hgforest.sh have the // eg:
# Repos: corba jaxp jaxws langtools jdk hotspot jdk/src/closed
jdk/make/closed jdk/test/closed hotspot/src/closed hotspot/test/closed
deploy install sponsors pubs
Starting on corba
Starting on jaxp
Starting on jaxws
Starting on langtools
# hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl//corba corba
