It is annoying to have it appear sometimes in the output of 'hg status'
or when creating a patch with 'hg diff'. You must revert it first
then. I believe it should be removed from the repository.
This file is part of the help system, it needs to be distributed for
non-developers. Otherwise updating the runtime files would require
running "make install".
Simplest if you add it to your .hgignore file. That's easy to merge if
it has any changes.
Thanks for the explanation.
.hgignore is only for non tracked files, so it cannot be used here.
But it's ok, one just need to revert runtime/doc/tags after an
install, and installs do not occur that often.
Adding runtime/doc/tags to .hgignore (plus hg rm runtime/doc/tags and hg
commit) will make the tags file untracked on your clone. Every time it
is modified on Bram's repository you'll get a message on the next update
or fetch:
remote changed runtime/doc/tags which local deleted
use (c)hanged version or leave (d)eleted?
to which you'll answer d to keep it untracked. If you are logging the
output of Mercurial (using, for instance, 2>&1 | tee -a vim.log) you
should set $PYTHONUNBUFFERED to something other than the empty string (I
use "export PYTHONUNBUFFERED='unbuffered'") or you won't see the prompt
until after you've typed the answer.
That's what I do, and it works.
Best regards,
Tony.
