Hi Felipe. Sorry for the slow response, I've been snowed under with work and
have only just got around to testing your latest version.
The new remote-hg.track-branches=false option is great and does exactly what
I was hoping for. For the benefit of the list archives, one natural way to
use it is
git clone -c remote-hg.track-branches=false hg::foo
when cloning the relevant repositories, if you don't want the setting
globally for every hg-remote clone.
During testing, I've seen some strange behaviour which I think is caused by
using the . revision instead of tip:
$ hg init h
$ hg init h2
$ ( cd h && touch foo && hg add foo && hg commit -m foo && hg push ../h2 )
pushing to ../h2
searching for changes
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files
$ git clone hg::h g
Cloning into 'g'...
$ git clone hg::h2 g2
Cloning into 'g2'...
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.
$
The reason for this is that by default . == null (not tip) in the repo h2
which we pushed into from h. The hg equivalent of a bare repo typically has a
null checkout like this. (Actually, the checkout of HEAD seems to break
whenever . is different from tip, not just when it's null as in this example.)
Apart from this, everything seems solid and works well. Really useful; thanks!
Best wishes,
Chris.
