EasyMercurial

h1. Feedback from the 16/March Workshop

h2. code.soundsoftware

* No main link from front page http://www.soundsoftware.ac.uk/

* Go to projects, search for "Easy" - not useful result (should give the project first)

* On http://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/easyhg/wiki/InstallingEasyHg, it says that Windows release is highlighed on http://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/easyhg/files, but actually several are highlighted.

* On http://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/easyhg, the "Download" link is too far down, make it a big "Download" button at the top!

* On https://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/qm-test-project-mdp/settings, please add help to what different roles do.

* Have an option to get sent email when added to a project

* In Repository " This URL has Read+Write access." Is meaningless to user

* In Repository " your preferred Mercurial client" could be EasyMercurial.

* When empty, could say "no files yet"?

* Provide 2 URLs, like Doodle does

* URL box easyhg is too short for https://markp@code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/hg/qm-test-project-mdp

* On repository, e.g. https://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/qm-test-project-mdp/repository, when click on file name, allow "open" or "preview" for text files etc, not just "download" (which enforces save).

h2 EasyHg

* On re-run (after install), it opens "Open Repository" dialog, but the default local Mercurial repostitory location is C:/Program Files (x86)/EasyMercurial, but should be e.g. C:/Users/[username]/My Documents (at least for 64-bit Windows 7).

* Entering a name then typing enter gives an error message - reason code missing

* Remote repository defaults to " C:/Program Files (x86)/EasyMercurial"

* Local folder defaults to C:/Users/markp, should default to C:/Users/markp/My Documents

* Local folder browse doesn't start from right place. E.g. Folder is " C:/Users/markp/My Documents/ ", click "Browse", shows C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyMercurial instead.

* On windows, can't select a folder with "Browse" unless it exists, so why complain that it already exists? It now says I cannot clone to it!

* On cancel, Open Repository dialog forgets past state.

* What "password" do I type? Is this for my PC or for the repository, or creating a new one for the project?

* Clone succsessful - more details is now wide enough (or should wrap text)

* .hg directory not hidden on windows - should tell people to ignore it!

* Commit to "local" repository - why? In Commit files dialog, maybe say its going to the local repository. Also, what is the "default branch"?

* Commit doesn't use file selection, uses all files. (Can commit individually with right-click).

* keyboard shortcuts don't work on right-click menus, e.g. right-click button then "d" should to diff.

* Push should warn on modified, uncommitted files. (Currently allows push with modified files).

* Pushed 1 changeset dialog details text is too small.

* Folder dialog uses "/" not "\"?

* Why does "open" say "Clone successful"? Does "open" = "Clone"?

* Commit files dialog box doesn't close on enter. Also can't use TAB to get to enter button. What's keyboard shortcut to committ?

* On commit, I get Command Failed:
