    25 1. INTRO                                                          *HGRevIntro*
       
    26 
       
    27 HGRev is a small plugin that can find the current buffer's revision ID from a
       
    28 Mercurial repository.  For more information on Mercurial, see:
       
    29 
       
    30 	http://mercurial.selenic.com/
       
    31 
       
    32 It is intended for use in the |statusline|- here's an example to enable it:
       
    33 
       
    34 	set statusline=[r%{HGRev()}] ~
       
    35 
       
    36 HGRev exports the 'HGRev()' function (for use in the statusline), and a
       
    37 command called
       
    38 >
       
    39 	:RefreshMercurialRev
       
    40 
       
    41 Which you can use to manually update the revision information for the current
       
    42 buffer.  If you've added HGRev() to your statusline, you'll see the file
       
    43 revision, branch, tags, and file status reflected -- if you used the
       
    44 statusline example above, you should see something like this:
       
    45 
       
    46 	[r192+ default tip M] ~
       
    47 
       
    48 The information displayed can be easily customized, and HGRev can also
       
    49 automatically update the status line on file changes.  (This behavior is
       
    50 disabled by default.)
       
    51 
       
    52 
       
    53 ==============================================================================
       
    54 2. CONFIGURATION-OPTIONS                                        *HGRevOptions*
       
    55 
       
    56 Here are the available configuration options and their defaults:
       
    57 >
       
    58 	let g:hgrevFlags = '-nbt'
       
    59 	let g:hgrevAddStatus = 1
       
    60 	let g:hgrevAutoUpdate = 0
       
    61 	let g:hgrevNoRepoChar = '-'
       
    62 
       
    63 
       
    64 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
    65 2.1                                                             *g:hgrevFlags*
       
    66 
       
    67 These are the flags passed directly to 'hg id'.  The flags "-nbt" are passed
       
    68 by default, which show a local rev id, branch, and tags.
       
    69 
       
    70 If you wanted to show the global rev hash (and nothing else) as an example,
       
    71 you can set this to:
       
    72 >
       
    73 	let g:hgrevFlags = '-i'
       
    74 
       
    75 
       
    76 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
    77 2.2                                                         *g:hgrevAddStatus*
       
    78 
       
    79 This settings will append the current file status to the output, by running
       
    80 'hg stat'.  I find it useful, so it is enabled by default -- you can disable
       
    81 it like so:
       
    82 >
       
    83 	let g:hgrevAddStatus = 0
       
    84 >
       
    85 
       
    86 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
    87 2.3                                                        *g:hgrevAutoUpdate*
       
    88 >
       
    89 When this option is enabled, some |autocmd-events| are added that
       
    90 automatically call :RefreshMercurialRev on file changes -- when a buffer is
       
    91 read, written to, or modified outside of Vim.  This is disabled by default, as
       
    92 the additional time needed (however small) to system() to hg for every
       
    93 read/write outweighs running :RefreshMercurialRev manually for my tastes.
       
    94 Yours tastes, of course, may vary, so you can enable it like so:
       
    95 >
       
    96 	let g:hgrevAutoUpdate = 1
       
    97 
       
    98 Alternatively, you can leave it disabled, and add your own |autocmd| events
       
    99 for :RefreshMercurialRev to what works best for you.
       
   100 
       
   101 
       
   102 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
   103 2.4                                                        *g:hgrevNoRepoChar*
       
   104 >
       
   105 If the current buffer doesn't seem to be a member of a Mercurial repository,
       
   106 HGRev() returns this character instead of a revision ID.
       
   107 
       
   108 Some examples:
       
   109 >
       
   110 	let g:hgrevNoRepoChar = '-'    (default)
       
   111 	set statusline=[r%{HGRev()}]
       
   112 
       
   113 This will output something like '[r12+ default tip M]' for repo files,
       
   114 and '[r-]' for non-repo.
       
   115 >
       
   116 	let g:hgrevNoRepoChar = ''
       
   117 	set statusline=%{HGRev()?'[r'.HGRev().']':''}
       
   118 
       
   119 This will output something like '[r512 default tip]' for repo files, and
       
   120 nothing at all for non-repo.
       
   121
