I’ve decided to make a small change for this release along with the other changes that I have already outlined. I want to avoid code duplication as much as possible and thus I have decided to put code to create a rev link into a function. Currently the code for creating a rev link looks [...]
As a part of one of my goals for this release I want to find a solution to the pesky scroll bar problem. I explained the problem and my futile attempts to find a solution in my previous blog post. So, as I mentioned earlier Dave Humphrey had shown me a different way of looking [...]
As a part of one of my goals for this release I want to find a solution to the pesky scroll bar problem. Let me explain: The Problem Basically, by default the pushlog only loads 10 entries, which doesn’t fill out the entire page and thus the scroll bar does not show up. Now, this [...]
Earlier today I outlined the goals of my current release. One of the problems I was looking to fix was with the function, getMaxEntries(). The job of this function was to create an xmlHttpRequest() in order to retrieve the maximum number of push entries in the repository. The pushlog displays data in reverse chronological order [...]
In my last release I had put out an hg annotate fix for the gitweb_mozilla theme. Dirkjan Ochtman, a Mercurial Project developer, noticed my release and asked me to come up with a similar fix for the Mercurial Project’s paper theme. I decided to take up the task and see if I could get similar [...]
All the way back in November 2008 I had put out a patch to implement expand and collapse functionality (for merge changesets) for the pushlog. I had gotten an r+ review but I just needed to make some minor adjustments to the patch. Time went on and I totally forgot about implementing that minor fix. I [...]
My v0.4 release is over and done with. In that release I mainly focused on bug 459727 but for my v0.5 release I’ll be taking a look at a problem with hg annotate, bug 459823. The problem here is that hg annotate takes FOREVER to load large files such as ten thousand line cpp files [...]
As the title suggests my 0.4 release is complete! I’ve managed to fulfill all the goals (and more) that I set out to complete. I’ve posted a new patch for hg_templates containing all my changes. The following are all the related links: The release goals Optimizing Code Better regexps for identifying bugLinks Linkifying all bug [...]
One of my goals for this release was to get the loading more entries onPageLoad functionality working properly concerning bug 459727. Currently I was getting an unresponsive script error. I’ve been struggling with this the last few days. I played around with this problem for a while in the hope of finding a viable solution. [...]
This post is again concerning my fixes for bug 459727. One of my goals for this release is to fix the bug link functionality. I’ve made some progress on that front in terms of creating correct bug links for the differnt types of patterns presented. This time I decided to tackle the other issue with [...]
