* Need to get post commit hook working (or an example of how to use it.)
+ * See below. --[[bma]]
* rcs_notify is not implemented
* Is the code sufficiently robust? It just warns when mercurial fails.
+* When rcs_commit is called with a $user that is an openid, it will be
+ passed through to mercurial -u. Will mercurial choke on this?
+ * Nope. Mercurial doesn't expect any particular format for the username,
+ though "Name <address@domain>" is standard. --[[bma]]
+* The rcs_commit implementation seems not to notice if the file has been
+ changed since a web edit started. Unlike all the other frontends, which
+ use the rcstoken to detect if the web commit started editing an earlier
+ version of the file, and if so, merge the two sets of changes together.
+ It seems that with the current mercurial commit code, it will always
+ blindly overwrite the current file with the web edited version, losing
+ any other changes.
+
+Posthook: in $srcdir/.hg/hrc, I have the following
+
+ [hooks]
+ incoming.update = hg up
+ update.ikiwiki = ikiwiki --setup /path/to/ikiwiki.setup --refresh
+
+This should update the working directory and run ikiwiki every time a change is recorded (someone who knows mercurial better than I do may be able to suggest a better way, but this works for me.)
+
+> Try running it with --post-commit instead of --refresh. That should
+> work better, handling both the case where the edit was made via the web
+> and then committed, and the case where a commit was made directly.
+> It can deadlock if the post-commit hook runs with --refresh in the
+> former case. --[[Joey]]
