> cmdutil.py:3214 > + extra = ctx.extra() > + extra['suffix'] = '.hgcommit.txt' > + I agree with smf: this patch is accomplishing a reasonable thing, but we should clean up this interface if we're going to use it. Let's add an action= parameter that's optional in the 4.4 cycle, with a devel warning if it's not specified. Then in 4.4 we can make it a mandatory parameter for ui.edit(). Right now the only client of this poke-something-in-extra API is histedit, so the time is right to clean up the API before more consumers do silly things. For your immediate goal in this patch, here's what I'd suggest as a compromise: 1. Add the new action=None business to ui.edit(), which then makes suffix='.hg$ACTION.txt' or similar 2. Update histedit to use that instead of screwing around with 'suffix' in extra 3. Remove support for 'suffix' in extra 4. Do this patch, but with action='commit' instead of poking '.hgcommit.txt' in the extra How does that sound to everyone?
