for Firefox and Thunderbird.

Mercurial のインストール
以下のコマンドを実行して Mercurial をビルドします。
make build
ドキュメントをビルドする場合 (docutils-0.20.1 が必要)、以下を実行します。
make doc
If you wish to run the tests, the rust tests must be removed as
they are currently broken due to syntax errors. To do this, issue:
sed -i '138,142d' Makefile
To run the test suite, issue:
TESTFLAGS="-j<N> --tmpdir tmp" make check
where <N> is an
integer between one and the number of ( processor X threads ),
inclusive. Several tests fail because some error messages have
changed in Python or some deprecation warnings are printed that
were not present when the test was designed. In order to
investigate any apparently failing tests, you may use the
run-tests.py script.
To see the almost forty switches, some of them very useful, issue
tests/run-tests.py
--help. Running the following commands, you will
execute only the tests that failed before:
pushd tests &&
rm -rf tmp &&
./run-tests.py --tmpdir tmp test-gpg.t
popd
Normally, the previous failures will be reproducible. However, if
you add the switch --debug before
--tmpdir, and run the tests again, some
failures may disappear, which is a problem with the test suite. If
this happens, there will be no more of these failures even if you
do not pass the --debug switch again.
An interesting switch is --time, which
will generate a table of all the executed tests and their
respective start, end, user, system and real times once the tests
are complete. Note that these switches may be used with
make check by
including them in the TESTFLAGS
environment variable.
Install Mercurial by running the
following command (as root):
make PREFIX=/usr install-bin
ドキュメントをビルドした場合 (root ユーザーになり)
以下のコマンドを実行してドキュメントをインストールします。
make PREFIX=/usr install-doc
After installation, two very quick and simple tests should run
correctly. The first one needs some configuration:
cat >> ~/.hgrc << "EOF"
[ui]
username = <user_name> <user@mail>
EOF
where you must replace <user_name> and <your@mail>
(mail is optional and can be omitted). With the user identity
defined, run hg
debuginstall and several lines will be displayed,
the last one reading "no problems detected". Another quick and
simple test is just hg, which should output basic
commands that can be used with hg.
