Summary: Less verbose restriction warnings Project: monotone Submitted by: tommyd Submitted on: Di 29 Jun 2010 13:22:42 CEST Category: command line UI Severity: 3 - Normal Item Group: code cleanup Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any mtn version --full: mtn-0.48 _______________________________________________________ Details: It would be cool if we could make the warnings about the inclusion of parents in a restriction less verbose. Right now if a specific file is targeted in a/b/c/, we emit four warnings, which is imho a little bit too much: mtn: warning: including missing parent '' mtn: warning: including missing parent 'a' mtn: warning: including missing parent 'a/b' mtn: warning: including missing parent 'a/b/c' So if I got it right, the warnings are there to inform the user that other changes (renames, attribute changes) in any of the parent directories are committed along with the targeted file. But if no such changes exist, the warnings are pointless... I think what we actually want and need is a way to give the roster some meta information about "explicit" and "implicit" changes and output these at a place when we compare the old against the new roster, i.e. before creating the new revision. Would that be a feasible approach? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?30291> _______________________________________________ Nachricht geschickt von/durch Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
