this is aweful alot just to determine when to upgrade a damn app... Honestly, what files usually need to be upgraded for a site that has been edited?
[web2py_ajax.html, appadmin.py] Does anybody ever edit admin??? Why would you. I consider admin as a part of web2py, not an app I would edit. I think the real question that was originally asked was "When I upgrade, will web2py automatically upgrade my web2py_ajax.html and appadmin.py or do I have to copy some new ones over" How do we deal with if these files have been altered... either use a simple MD5 checksum, or make it an all or none process (they either update or don't, if they do, they know what will happen) -Thadeus On Thu, Dec 3, 2009 at 11:26 PM, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > Yarko. > > web2py already uses mercurial if it is installed: > > http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/trunk/applications/admin/controllers/mercurial.py > > and I would love somebody to take the lead and improve that > controller. > > You suggested making it required for installation of applications. > This is not possible because web2py has to be distributable in binary > form without dependencies and without Python pre-installed.
