So... this is certainly the deepest I've got to dig into any source code.
I'm experimenting with Review Board for code reviews, and trying to get it
set up/working here at work. When using post-review, however, I started
getting issues with untrusted users - even though they were set to trusted
in my ~/.hgrc and things worked fine otherwise.
So here's where things got weird. I could call
`subprocess.check_output(['hg', 'root'])`, and things worked just fine.
But when I added the env parameter, I got the untrusted issues. So if I
did:
import os, subprocess
# Works just fine
subprocess.check_output(['hg', 'root'])
# Gives untrusted issues
subprocess.check_output(['hg', 'root'], env=os.environ)
Long story short, I dug around the source code and ended up at the POSIX
execve function. I've been reading the manpages, but nothing seems to pop
out at me as "hey, this should/shouldn't work!".
Does anyone know what's going on here, or where I should go for more help?
Thanks,
Wayne
