This is just a brief explanation. I would first like to know if anyone is seeing the same problem as I under Mac OS X 10.5.2 using macports-installed mercurial (0.9.5). The two problems I see are 1) hg 0.9.5 (installed from macports) will add ACLs to all the files and prevent changes by group members if the directory which contains the source does not have group write access. The ACLs override the owner's write access. Note, that hg status (which should change nothing) also causes the change; isn't that a violation of some UI dogma? The solution is to make the directory containing the tree group writable which does not lead to hg adding ACLs. That is not a real problem in OS X 10.4 because the user's group is the same as the user. But in 10.5 it can be a problem. My default group is staff. On a multi-user machine, there could be other members of the group. 2) hg pull causes any differences to be processed through Xcode's FileMerge program which is an interactive GUI and not automatic--new development with 10.5.2 -- Dr. Robert Delius Royar Associate Professor of English Morehead State University Morehead, Kentucky _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
