Hoe Loves Mercurial

• bitbucket.org/mml/hoe-hg

Description

A Hoe plugin for Mercurial integration. Provides tasks to automate release tagging and pushing and changelog generation. I expect it’ll learn a few more tricks in the future.

Stolen wholesale from hoe-git.

Examples

# in your Rakefile
Hoe.plugin :hg

If this plugin doesn’t see a .hg directory at the root of your project, it’ll silently deactivate itself.

Generating the Manifest

$ rake hg:manifest

This will regenerate Manifest.txt using hg ls-files. It does not respect Hoe’s manifest sort order and excludes!

Tagging and Sanity Checking a Release

$ rake release VERSION=1.0.0

In addition to the normal RubyForge release process, this will create and push a v1.0.0 tag. It’ll also abort the release if your index is dirty, or if there are untracked files present.

Dependencies

Hoe and Mercurial, obviously. I wouldn’t be surprised if things don’t quite work for ancient hg versions < 1.4.1

Installation

$ gem install hoe-hg

TODO

• I bailed on the auto-generated changelog.
