+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 qithout the .hg folder). Can be useful for doing builds f.i. (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
