sorry I'd missed this.
Is the test_earlier_revision because the ter branch already exists? (what is the output?) Do you know which shell command this is tripping up on the bad rev (cmd)?
Yes, it's the files not removing. I believe it's just some weird permissions thing that can happen on Windows depending on how an account is configured - sometimes you seem to lose the ability to remove files you created or something. Can't remember exactly, but the patch I submitted should work around that and forcibly remove the files.
Weirdly, I couldn't repo this/have fixed these.
There's still the hg test failing (which seems to be that hg automatically adds all files which are untracked on unix).
The problem seems likely only to manifest if you're on a corporate machine with lots of tiered permissions. Somehow I was creating file I couldn't remove by default.
Was that the one you fixed - permissions thing?
I'm did a little refactor (fun) which reproduced the ter branch thing on mac/linux, suspect I can fix it.
The last thread is long enough, and I propose dedicating it to the problem with Hg errors not propogating up far enough to see easily.
With a username set in Hg, here's the current status:
