Package: mercurial
Version: 2.2.2-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Mercurial 2.2.2 suffers from a bug when handling renames within the
repository which causes merges to fail with a 'abort: path contains
illegal component:' message. It has been fixed upstream (see the details
at http://bz.selenic.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3511) with quite a simple
patch.
This bugs affects various real-world repositories (currently I'm seeing
it on the main pypy repository for example), and is likely to severely
impact on the usability of mercurial in wheezy.
Would it be possible to backport the patch to the version of mercurial
that will be included in wheezy?
