[Python-Dev] Mercurial migration: help needed (original) (raw)

I don't think this problem is really serious. If the push fails, you can just commit (locally) a new changeset that repairs the EOL or indentation problems

I would find that unfortunate. It's a fairly irrelevant change, yet it may manage to corrupt the history (hg blame).

and push the whole bunch of changesets again (I assume the server-side hook will not examine changesets individually, but only the last of them?).

That is for us to decide. I can see arguments either way.

But it shouldn't happen often that the server refuses a push; all errors should already be caught on the clients.

Regards, Martin
