%To err might be human, but to really handle the consequences well
%takes a top-notch revision control system.  In this chapter, we'll
%discuss some of the techniques you can use when you find that a
%problem has crept into your project.  Mercurial has some highly
%capable features that will help you to isolate the sources of
%problems, and to handle them appropriately.

%It's common practice with Mercurial to maintain separate development

%release.

%Given this, you can imagine that the consequences could be messy if
%you had a local ``0.9'' repository, and accidentally pulled changes

%paying insufficient attention, and push those changes into the shared
%``0.9'' tree, confusing your entire team (but don't worry, we'll
%return to this horror scenario later).  However, it's more likely that
%you'll notice immediately, because Mercurial will display the URL it's

%If you \hgcmd{rename} a file, there is one small detail that
%you should remember.  When you \hgcmd{revert} a rename, it's not
%enough to provide the name of the renamed-to file, as you can see
%here.
%As you can see from the output of \hgcmd{status}, the renamed-to file
%is no longer identified as added, but the renamed-\emph{from} file is
%still removed!  This is counter-intuitive (at least to me), but at
%least it's easy to deal with.
%So remember, to revert a \hgcmd{rename}, you must provide \emph{both}
%the source and destination names.

%\subsection{Why \hgcmd{backout} works as it does}
\subsection{$B$J$<(B\hgcmd{backout}$B$O$3$N$h$&$KF0:n$9$k$N$+(B}

%Here's a brief description of how the \hgcmd{backout} command works.
%\begin{enumerate}
%\item It ensures that the working directory is ``clean'', i.e.~that
%  the output of \hgcmd{status} would be empty.
%\item It remembers the current parent of the working directory.  Let's
%  call this changeset \texttt{orig}
%\item It does the equivalent of a \hgcmd{update} to sync the working
%  directory to the changeset you want to back out.  Let's call this
%  changeset \texttt{backout}
%\item It finds the parent of that changeset.  Let's call that
%  changeset \texttt{parent}.
%\item For each file that the \texttt{backout} changeset affected, it
%  does the equivalent of a \hgcmdargs{revert}{-r parent} on that file,
%  to restore it to the contents it had before that changeset was
%  committed.

%While it's all very well to be able to back out a changeset that

%\hgcmd{bisect}, that helps you to automate this process and accomplish

%The idea behind the \hgcmd{bisect} command is that a changeset has
%introduced some change of behaviour that you can identify with a

%Here are a few scenarios to help you understand how you might apply
%this command.
%\begin{itemize}
%\item The most recent version of your software has a bug that you
%  remember wasn't present a few weeks ago, but you don't know when it
%  was introduced.  Here, your binary test checks for the presence of
%  that bug.
%\item You fixed a bug in a rush, and now it's time to close the entry
%  in your team's bug database.  The bug database requires a changeset
%  ID when you close an entry, but you don't remember which changeset
%  you fixed the bug in.  Once again, your binary test checks for the
%  presence of the bug.
%\item Your software works correctly, but runs~15\% slower than the
%  last time you measured it.  You want to know which changeset
%  introduced the performance regression.  In this case, your binary
%  test measures the performance of your software, to see whether it's
%  ``fast'' or ``slow''.
%\item The sizes of the components of your project that you ship
%  exploded recently, and you suspect that something changed in the way
%  you build your project.

%One simple way to automate the searching process would be simply to
%probe every changeset.  However, this scales poorly.If it took ten
%minutes to test a single changeset, and you had 10,000 changesets in
%your repository, the exhaustive approach would take on average~35
%\emph{days} to find the changeset that introduced a bug. Even if you
%knew that the bug was introduced by one of the last 500 changesets,

%What the \hgcmd{bisect} command does is use its knowledge of the
%``shape'' of your project's revision history to perform a search in
%time proportional to the \emph{logarithm} of the number of changesets
%to check (the kind of search it performs is called a dichotomic
%search).

%With this approach, searching through 10,000 changesets will
%take less than three hours, even at ten minutes per test (the search
%will require about 14 tests).  Limit your search to the last hundred
%changesets, and it will take only about an hour (roughly seven tests).

%\item You run your binary test.

%\subsection{Beware interference between bugs}
\subsection{$B%P%0F1;N$NAj8_43>D$KN10U$9$k(B}

%It's possible that your search for one bug could be disrupted by the
%presence of another.  For example, let's say your software crashes at
%revision 100, and worked correctly at revision 50.  Unknown to you,
%someone else introduced a different crashing bug at revision 60, and
%fixed it at revision 80.  This could distort your results in one of
%several ways.

%It is possible that this other bug completely ``masks'' yours, which
%is to say that it occurs before your bug has a chance to manifest
%itself.If you can't avoid that other bug (for example, it prevents
%your project from building), and so can't tell whether your bug is
%present in a particular changeset, the \hgcmd{bisect} command cannot
%help you directly.  Instead, you can mark a changeset as untested by
%running \hgcmdargs{bisect}{--skip}.

%A different problem could arise if your test for a bug's presence is

%will look like the same thing, and mislead \hgcmd{bisect}.

%\subsection{Bracket your search lazily}
\subsection{$BC5:w$rBUBF$K%V%i%1%C%H$9$k(B}

%Choosing the first ``good'' and ``bad'' changesets that will mark the
%end points of your search is often easy,but it bears a little
%discussion nevertheless.  From the perspective of \hgcmd{bisect}, the
%``newest'' changeset is conventionally ``bad'', and the older
%changeset is ``good''.

%If you're having trouble remembering when a suitable ``good'' change
%was, so that you can tell \hgcmd{bisect}, you could do worse than
%testing changesets at random. Just remember to eliminate contenders
%that can't possibly exhibit the bug (perhaps because the feature with
%the bug isn't present yet) and those where another problem masks the
%bug (as I discussed above).
