[issue3280] hg update -C doesn't bring deleted files from subrepos

[Michal Sznajder]

New submission from Michal Sznajder <michalsznajder at gmail.com>:

One of the users of THG reported [1] that update of the main
repository with a deleted file in the subrepo does not bring back file
in subrepo. Below is a way to reproduce this:

hg init test
cd test
hg init subrepo
echo "subrepo = subrepo" > .hgsub
echo a > subrepo/file
hg -R subrepo commit --addremove --message "subrepo commit"
hg commit --addremove --message "commit"
# delete file
rm subrepo/file
hg update
hg status --subrepos
! subrepo/file

This is wrong - file should be brought back. See [2] for bug discussion.
