Project Name

Add Source Server Support for Mercurial

Project Description

Previously we added source indexing to release builds using CVS as a backend for pulling source files. Since then, Mozilla has moved to Mercurial from CVS. This project will add support so that Mercurial can be used too. See bug# 440001.

Project Details

Provides more depth than the Project Description. This is the place for technical discussions, project specs, or other details. If this gets very long, you might consider breaking this part into multiple pages and linking to them.

0.1 Release

    * Set up existing source server to see how it works(will download pdb's off mozilla server)
    * Set up localhost server
    * Build firefox and create pdb files (symbols), host them on local server
    * Insert my own data block into one of the mozilla pdb files (will use xul.pdb)
    * Get xul.pdb to grab source files off of hgweb instead of cvs repo

October 13, 2008 - Got the current source server working with help from ted and lblakk. Doing review of symbolstore.py code as well as learning more about the python language.

October 18, 2008 - 0.1 Released! For instructions, see this page. See my blog entry for thoughts and observations.
