973843 - On windows use the user profile root rather than documents directory for the bzexport cache

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Developer Services :: Mercurial: bzexport, defect)

Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

On Windows the bzexport caches are currently stored at:
C:\Users\username\Documents\.bzexport
C:\Users\username\Documents\.bzexport.cache

This patch makes them be saved to:
C:\Users\username\.bzexport
C:\Users\username\.bzexport.cache

...consistent with the .hgrc and other unix tools configs.

This stuff is a total mystery to me. But r+ anyway, especially since you included a link to make sense of it.

I guess it'll lose the existing files. But I suspect that's all in all a good thing; I'd kind of like to expire the cache entries anyway.
