Mercurial allows arbitrary strings as user (committer) ids, while
Git requires a name and email address, and specific punctuation
around the address.
hg-fast-export has some provision for automatically fixing-up invalid
committer and author ids, but it doesn't catch everything. Its
maintainer does not want to extend this, so we use a plugin instead.
* Add a plugin (fudge_user_ids) that should fix up all invalid ids.
* In setup.py:
- Compile it at build time
- Install it under a private data directory (/usr/share/lorry)
- Clean up the bytecode
* In gitify_hg, check whether hg-fast-export supports plugins, and
where our plugins are. If this succeeds, add --plugin-path and
--plugin options to enable fudge_user_ids.
Closes #11.
