- Use Mercurial commit to determine page date
- ===========================================
- If your blog content is versioned via Mercurial, this plugin will set
- articles' and pages' ``metadata['date']`` to correspond to that of the
- hg commit. This plugin depends on the ``hglib`` python package,
- which can be installed via::
- sudo apt-get install python-hglib
- or::
- pip install hglib
- The date is determined via the following logic:
- * if a file is not tracked by hg, or a file is added but never committed
- - metadata['date'] = filesystem time
- - metadata['modified'] = filesystem time
- * if a file is tracked, but no changes in working directory
- - metadata['date'] = first commit time
- - metadata['modified'] = last commit time
- * if a file is tracked, and has changes in working directory
- - metadata['date'] = first commit time
- - metadata['modified'] = filesystem time
- When this module is enabled, ``date`` and ``modified`` will be determined
- by hg status; no need to manually set in article/page metadata. And
- operations like copy and move will not affect the generated results.
- If you don't want a given article or page to use the hg time, set the
- metadata to ``hgtime: off`` to disable it.
- You can also set ``HG_FILETIME_FOLLOW`` to ``True`` in your settings to
- make the plugin follow file renames — i.e., ensure the creation date matches
- the original file creation date, not the date it was renamed.
