I wanted to draw attention to issue11450 [1]. In trying to using mq to work on patches for CPython, I found that I could no longer get regrtest to run. This issue comes down to the size of the output of "hg id -t ." being much longer than expected.
$ hg qnew dummy-patch $ echo "/* dummy change */" >> Modules/getbuildinfo.c $ ./python -c 'import sys; print(sys.version)' 3.3a0 (dummy-patch qbase qtip tip:191f047a07b4+, Mar 9 ) [GCC 4.4.5] This is a showstopper for using mq and CPython, since you can no longer run regrtest because the platform module cannot parse that truncated string. -- Scott Dial sc...@scottdial.com scod...@cs.indiana.edu _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
