            Bug ID: 4899
           Summary: shelve extensions always backs up entire repo
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: 3.5.1
          Hardware: Macintosh
                OS: Mac OS
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: bug
          Priority: wish
         Component: shelve
          Assignee: bugzilla at selenic.com
          Reporter: hchapman-hg at 3gfp.com
                CC: mercurial-devel at selenic.com

The shelve extension always backs up the entire repo into a bundle. This may be
ok for small repos, but on my daily work repo, it wants to create a 24GB bundle
file.

Test:

    export HGRCPATH=""
    alias hg_with_shelve="hg --config extensions.shelve= --config
ui.username=h at h.com"
    hg_with_shelve init
    for i in 1 2 3 4; do touch $i; hg_with_shelve ci -Am .; done
    echo a change > 2
    hg_with_shelve status
    hg_with_shelve shelve
    hg_with_shelve -R .hg/shelved/default.hg log -T '{rev}:{node|short}\n'

Test with output:

    $ export HGRCPATH=""
    $ alias hg_with_shelve="hg --config extensions.shelve= --config
ui.username=h at h.com"
    $ hg_with_shelve init
    $ for i in 1 2 3 4; do touch $i; hg_with_shelve ci -Am .; done
    adding 1
    adding 2
    adding 3
    adding 4
    $ echo a change > 2
    $ hg_with_shelve status
    M 2
    $ hg_with_shelve shelve
    shelved as default
    1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
    $ hg_with_shelve -R .hg/shelved/default.hg log -T '{rev}:{node|short}\n'
