A .bzr control diretory.

BzrDir instances let you create or open any of the things that can be found within .bzr - checkouts, branches and repositories.

Everything in the bzrdir should have the same file permissions.

Inherited from ControlComponent (via ControlDir):

Method control_url Undocumented
Method user_url Undocumented
def break_lock(self):
overridden in bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir
Invoke break_lock on the first object in the bzrdir.

If there is a tree, the tree is opened and break_lock() called. Otherwise, branch is tried, and finally repository.

def check_conversion_target(self, target_format):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.check_conversion_target
Check that a bzrdir as a whole can be converted to a new format.
def clone_on_transport(self, transport, revision_id=None, force_new_repo=False, preserve_stacking=False, stacked_on=None, create_prefix=False, use_existing_dir=True, no_tree=False):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.clone_on_transport
Clone this bzrdir and its contents to transport verbatim.
ParameterstransportThe transport for the location to produce the clone at. If the target directory does not exist, it will be created.
revision_idThe tip revision-id to use for any branch or working tree. If not None, then the clone operation may tune itself to download less data.
force_new_repoDo not use a shared repository for the target, even if one is available.
preserve_stackingWhen cloning a stacked branch, stack the new branch on top of the other branch's stacked-on branch.
create_prefixCreate any missing directories leading up to to_transport.
use_existing_dirUse an existing directory if one exists.
no_treeIf set to true prevents creation of a working tree.
def _make_tail(self, url):
Undocumented
def determine_repository_policy(self, force_new_repo=False, stack_on=None, stack_on_pwd=None, require_stacking=False):
Return an object representing a policy to use.

This controls whether a new repository is created, and the format of that repository, or some existing shared repository used instead.

If stack_on is supplied, will not seek a containing shared repo.

Parametersforce_new_repoIf True, require a new repository to be created.
stack_onIf supplied, the location to stack on. If not supplied, a default_stack_on location may be used.
stack_on_pwdIf stack_on is relative, the location it is relative to.
def _find_or_create_repository(self, force_new_repo):
Create a new repository if needed, returning the repository.
def _find_source_repo(self, add_cleanup, source_branch):
Find the source branch and repo for a sprout operation.

This is helper intended for use by _sprout.

Returns(source_branch, source_repository). Either or both may be None. If not None, they will be read-locked (and their unlock(s) scheduled via the add_cleanup param).
def sprout(self, url, revision_id=None, force_new_repo=False, recurse='down', possible_transports=None, accelerator_tree=None, hardlink=False, stacked=False, source_branch=None, create_tree_if_local=True):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.sprout
overridden in bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.tests.test_foreign.DummyForeignVcsDir

Create a copy of this controldir prepared for use as a new line of development.

If url's last component does not exist, it will be created.

Attributes related to the identity of the source branch like branch nickname will be cleaned, a working tree is created whether one existed before or not; and a local branch is always created.

if revision_id is not None, then the clone operation may tune
itself to download less data.
Parametersaccelerator_treeA tree which can be used for retrieving file contents more quickly than the revision tree, i.e. a workingtree. The revision tree will be used for cases where accelerator_tree's content is different.
hardlinkIf true, hard-link files from accelerator_tree, where possible.
stackedIf true, create a stacked branch referring to the location of this control directory.
create_tree_if_localIf true, a working-tree will be created when working locally.
def _sprout(self, op, url, revision_id=None, force_new_repo=False, recurse='down', possible_transports=None, accelerator_tree=None, hardlink=False, stacked=False, source_branch=None, create_tree_if_local=True):
Undocumented
@deprecated_method(deprecated_in((2, 3, 0)))
def generate_backup_name(self, base):
Undocumented
def _available_backup_name(self, base):
Find a non-existing backup file name based on base.

See bzrlib.osutils.available_backup_name about race conditions.

def backup_bzrdir(self):
Backup this bzr control directory.
ReturnsTuple with old path name and new path name
def retire_bzrdir(self, limit=10000):
Permanently disable the bzrdir.

This is done by renaming it to give the user some ability to recover if there was a problem.

This will have horrible consequences if anyone has anything locked or in use. :param limit: number of times to retry

def _find_containing(self, evaluate):
Find something in a containing control directory.

This method will scan containing control dirs, until it finds what it is looking for, decides that it will never find it, or runs out of containing control directories to check.

It is used to implement find_repository and determine_repository_policy.

ParametersevaluateA function returning (value, stop). If stop is True, the value will be returned.
def find_repository(self):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.find_repository
Find the repository that should be used.

This does not require a branch as we use it to find the repo for new branches as well as to hook existing branches up to their repository.

def _find_creation_modes(self):
Determine the appropriate modes for files and directories.

They're always set to be consistent with the base directory, assuming that this transport allows setting modes.

def _get_file_mode(self):
Return Unix mode for newly created files, or None.
def _get_dir_mode(self):
Return Unix mode for newly created directories, or None.
def get_config(self):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.get_config
Get configuration for this BzrDir.
def _get_config(self):
overridden in bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirMeta1, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir
By default, no configuration is available.
def __init__(self, _transport, _format):
overridden in bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirMeta1Colo, bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir, bzrlib.tests.test_bzrdir._TestBzrDir, bzrlib.tests.test_foreign.DummyForeignVcsDir
Initialize a Bzr control dir object.

Only really common logic should reside here, concrete classes should be made with varying behaviours.

Parameters_formatthe format that is creating this BzrDir instance.
_transportthe transport this dir is based at.
@property
def user_transport(self):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlComponent.user_transport
Undocumented
@property
def control_transport(self):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlComponent.control_transport
Undocumented
def is_control_filename(self, filename):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.is_control_filename
True if filename is the name of a path which is reserved for bzrdir's.

This is true IF and ONLY IF the filename is part of the namespace reserved for bzr control dirs. Currently this is the '.bzr' directory in the root of the root_transport.

ParametersfilenameA filename within the root transport of this bzrdir.
def _cloning_metadir(self):
Produce a metadir suitable for cloning with.
Returns(destination_bzrdir_format, source_repository)
def cloning_metadir(self, require_stacking=False):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.cloning_metadir
overridden in bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir, bzrlib.tests.test_bzrdir._TestBzrDir, bzrlib.tests.test_foreign.DummyForeignVcsDir
Produce a metadir suitable for cloning or sprouting with.

These operations may produce workingtrees (yes, even though they're "cloning" something that doesn't have a tree), so a viable workingtree format must be selected.

Returnsa ControlDirFormat with all component formats either set appropriately or set to None if that component should not be created.
Unknown Field: require_stackingIf True, non-stackable formats will be upgraded to similar stackable formats.
def get_branch_transport(self, branch_format, name=None):
overridden in bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirMeta1, bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir
Get the transport for use by branch format in this BzrDir.

Note that bzr dirs that do not support format strings will raise IncompatibleFormat if the branch format they are given has a format string, and vice versa.

If branch_format is None, the transport is returned with no checking. If it is not None, then the returned transport is guaranteed to point to an existing directory ready for use.

def get_repository_transport(self, repository_format):
overridden in bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirMeta1, bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir
Get the transport for use by repository format in this BzrDir.

Note that bzr dirs that do not support format strings will raise IncompatibleFormat if the repository format they are given has a format string, and vice versa.

If repository_format is None, the transport is returned with no checking. If it is not None, then the returned transport is guaranteed to point to an existing directory ready for use.

def get_workingtree_transport(self, tree_format):
overridden in bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirMeta1, bzrlib.plugins.weave_fmt.bzrdir.BzrDirPreSplitOut, bzrlib.remote.RemoteBzrDir
Get the transport for use by workingtree format in this BzrDir.

Note that bzr dirs that do not support format strings will raise IncompatibleFormat if the workingtree format they are given has a format string, and vice versa.

If workingtree_format is None, the transport is returned with no checking. If it is not None, then the returned transport is guaranteed to point to an existing directory ready for use.

def create(cls, base, format=None, possible_transports=None):
overrides bzrlib.controldir.ControlDir.create
Create a new BzrDir at the url 'base'.
ParametersformatIf supplied, the format of branch to create. If not supplied, the default is used.
possible_transportsIf supplied, a list of transports that can be reused to share a remote connection.
