[issue2154] Repository not found error when bundle file name contains a hash symbol (#).

[Mark Booth]

New submission from Mark Booth <mercurial.selenic.com at anang.com>:

I've just had an odd problem where a bundle I'd been sent couldn't be pulled
in to the repository without being renamed.

Doing an Incoming or Pull (TortioseHg) resulted in "Repository X\Y not found
[command interrupted]", where X was the repository (C:\Src\Blah) and Y was
the first part of the bundle name, which was "Y#2Z.hg".

As soon as I renamed the bundle to be "Y-2Z.hg", everything worked fine, so
this does have a work around.

After reporting this to the thg issues list, sborho asked me to test with
the command line. I created the following batch script to demonstrate the
problem:

hg --version
md test
hg init test
cd test
echo 1 > 1.txt
hg add
hg commit -m "First"
hg clone . ..\clone
echo 1 >> 1.txt
hg commit -m "Second"
hg bundle -a ..\test#bundle.hg
cd ..\clone
hg in ..\test#bundle.hg
rename ..\test#bundle.hg testbundle.hg
hg in ..\testbundle.hg

Here are the results from my system:
