Archiving ========= .. module:: archive.dialog :synopsis: Dialog used to make an archive of a repository You can choose from quite a lot of formats to make an archive of a repository. There are the usual compressed formats. But it's also possible to make a plain folder of files in another place than the Working Directory (it's like a clone, but without the .hg folder). Can be useful for doing builds for example (think 'svn export'). One can make an archive with only the files of the selected rev. Some people seem to use this to send changes to external people that do not have access to the repository. From the changelog context menu in the Workbench select :menuselection:`Archive...` for the choosen changeset, or, within the folder, type :command:`thg archive`. .. figure:: figures/archive.png :alt: Archive dialog Repository Archive Dialog :guilabel:`Revision` To select the revision you wish to archive or export. :guilabel:`Only files modified/created in this revision` To limit the number of files in the archive. :guilabel:`Destination path` The filename or directory where the archive will be created. It is filled with the name of the current repository, suffixed with the revision number of the selected revision, and has the appropriate extension of the selected archive type. :guilabel:`Archive types` Here you can choose the type of archive to create, ranging from a plain folder with files to a variety of standard archive type. :guilabel:`Hg command` This field displays the command that will be executed by the dialog. :guilabel:`Always show output` To have an logging output pane with the results of the command while it runs. Archiving a repository means create an archive file or subdirectory with the contents of the selected revision. From command line ----------------- The archive tool can be started from command line :: thg archive The syntax is :: thg archive -r [REV] -t [TYPE] [DEST] where [REV] is the revision to archive, [TYPE] is the type of archive to create, and [DEST] is the name of the file or filder to create. See `hg.1.html#archive <http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/hg.1.html#archive>`_ for details, or type :command:`hg help archive` at the command line or in the Output Log of the Workbench. .. vim: noet ts=4
