1127512 - pushlog replication doesn't behave well with missing changesets

Status: NEW

(Developer Services :: Mercurial: Pushlog, defect)

Description

Somehow mozilla-beta replication got into a weird state where mirrors were missing some changesets. However, the pushlog data transferred down just fine.

The json-pushes was advertising changesets that didn't exist in the local repo. However, pushloghtml or json-pushes?full=1 were failing due to the repo raising a LookupRepoError when the pushlog was trying to access the changeset on the underlying repo, which didn't exist.

I'm not sure the best way to tackle this. Refusing to pull pushlog entries for which there are no local changesets might be doable. Another would be to filter missing changesets from the pushlog output. Another would be to annotate missing changesets in the pushlog output. No easy solution :/
