Actually, with hg there’s not much need for this since the native hg URL
format supports specifying the branch to check out in a URL fragment:
https://server.org/path/to/repo#branch.

Bug#897217: debian-policy: Vcs-Hg should support -b too

2018-04-30 Thread Samuel Thibault
Package: debian-policy
Version: 4.1.4.1
Severity: normal

Hello,

In 5.6.26, one can read about Vcs-:

"In the case of Git, the value consists of a URL, optionally followed by
the word -b the name of a branch in the indicated repository, following
the syntax of the git clone command".

It would be useful to have the same for Hg, for instance:

"In the case of Git and Hg, the value consists of a URL, optionally
followed by the word -b the name of a branch in the indicated
repository, following the syntax of the git clone and hg clone
commands".
