The Sage-combinat patch server: basic instructions

This page describes how to install and update the Sage-combinat experimental patches.

For advanced usage of the patch server, see http:/combinat/Mercurial.

Download and install the Sage-combinat patches

We assume that:

  • Sage is already installed (say in /opt/sage)
  • Mercurial is already installed (sudo apt-get install Mercurial on Debian)
  • The user has write access on the Sage installation tree
  • The user has access to: http://sage.math.washington.edu:2144/

It can be possible that the Mercurial configuration file hasn't being created during the installation of Mercurial, you will have to create it and edit it before to install Sage-combinat. Open your Mercurial configuration file (~/.hgrc in your home directory), insert the following, and edit the username:

[ui]
username = Simon Cussonnet <Simon.Cussonnet at lycee-technique.torrez.eure.fr>
[extensions]
hgext.mq =
extdiff =
alias =
[alias]
qstatus = status --rev -2:.
[hooks]
pre-qrefresh = (echo "Are you sure you want to refresh the following changes:"; sage -hg status; echo -n "into the patch: "; hg qtop; read -p "(y/n)" answer; test "$answer" = "y"  )
[extdiff]
cmd.interdiff = hg-interdiff

Download the sage-combinat script, and run it from anywhere to download and install the Sage-combinat patches:

python sage-combinat install

In case Sage or python is not in the user's path, you may have to specify where they are, as in:

/opt/sage/sage-python sage-combinat install --sage=/opt/sage/sage

Note: starting from sage 3.1.3, the sage-combinat script is readily included in the sage distribution, and you can run it with:

sage -combinat install

Some help is available with:

/opt/sage/sage-python sage-combinat --help

Update the Sage-combinat patches

python sage-combinat update

Upgrade Sage and update the Sage-combinat patches

python sage-combinat upgrade

Uninstall the Sage-combinat patches

sage -b main

Now, you may destroy .../sage/devel/sage-combinat/ (after checking that you do not have local changes!)
