1232580 - hg push review breaks my terminal

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: Mach Core, enhancement)

Description

[David Teller [:Yoric] - still alive but not very active]

After calling `hg push review`, I lose the ability to read what I wrote on the terminal. stdout/stderr outputs from applications still work.

Here's my prompt:
PS1='\u \W \A\$ '

Your bug report lacks details to triage. We preferably need full console output. Also knowing the value of TERM, `hg config | grep term`, `hg config | grep color`, which version of Mercurial, and which terminal program you are using would be extremely helpful.

I'm using the MacOS X Terminal.app, version 2.6.1

$ hg config | grep term # Nothing
$ hg config | grep color
extensions.color=
$ hg --version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 3.6-rc+20-6474b64045fb)
$ echo $TERM
xterm-256color


Full output: (running `hg push review`, then `ls`, then `echo "I have just called echo, can you see it?"`).

i'm unable to reproduce this using an almost identical setup.
the only difference is i have hg 3.6.3 not 3.6-rc+20-6474b64045fb.

y u no iTerm2? You really want to use https://www.iterm2.com/.

(That doesn't change the fact that this is a wonky bug.)

I still encounter the issue with 3.6.2.

Comment 6

[Gregory Szorc [:gps]]

Please follow up at https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5037, which is a similar bug report and hopefully the same underlying issue.

Worth noting from the initial bug report that `hg push review` does perform a prompt, asking the user whether they want to publish what they just submitted.

https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5037#c13 and below say this is a MacPorts issue that can be worked around by `port install p27-readline`. Moving this to a mach bootstrap bug.

Will submit patch shortly.

I assume it's actually "py27-readline".

Attachment: MozReview Request: Bug 1232580 - Install py27-readline on MacPorts; r?Yoric

See https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48807. Without it, reading
input can break terminals.
