How do I configure Mercurial to use environment variables in mercurial.ini
How can I modify the mercurial.ini file to include an environment variable such as %userprofile%.
Spe开发者_StackOverflowcific situation:
I am learning to use Mercurial. I have modified the [ui] section of Mercurial.ini (in my home path) to include:
ignore = c:\users\user\.hgignore
Where user is my username literal. The .hgignore file includes filename filters that are used to ignore files during commit. How can I alter it from being the a literal user to an environment variable $user?
It won't interpolate environment variables in the hgrc, but I do believe that tilda expands to your home/profile directory correctly even on windows.
So:
ignore = ~/.hgignore
should work on windows and elsewhere (even the slashes get spun the wrong way automatically for you).
For other variables you'd need to get a little tricker and write a batch/cmd file that does the interpolation in advance and then hands the result off to mercurial for processing.
The mercurial.ini parses the environment variables just fine. From my mercurial.ini:
[ui]
ignore = %USERPROFILE%/.hgignore
Works like a charm. Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Mercurial 1.5 (binary installation). The hgignore file is honored both my the command line hg.exe, and tortoiseHG.
