#427: Cannot update manifest to Mercurial version of Carpet

 Priority:  critical       |   Milestone:       
Component:  GetComponents  |     Version:

---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 I updated my manifest to using the Mercurial version of Carpet. Since I
 was using this version before, there was no change except that there is
 now also an anonymous url available. When I try to update, I receive the
 error message that the repo url changed, although it did not change at
 all.

 My repo configuration was before:


 # Carpet, the AMR driver
 !TARGET   = $ARR
 !TYPE     = git
 !AUTH_URL = carpetgit at carpetcode.org:carpet
 !URL      = git://carpetcode.org/carpet
 # For experimental version, comment previous three lines and uncomment
 next two
 # Note that you will need to get access first (ask Erik Schnetter)
 !TYPE     = hg
 !URL      = ssh://carpetmercurial@carpetcode.org/carpet

 It is now:


 # Carpet, the AMR driver
 !TARGET   = $ARR
 !TYPE     = hg
 !AUTH_URL = ssh://carpetmercurial@carpetcode.org/carpet
 !URL      = http://www.carpetcode.org/hg/carpet
 # For the git version of Carpet, comment the previous three lines and
 # uncomment the next three
 #!TYPE     = git
 #!AUTH_URL = carpetgit at carpetcode.org:carpet
 #!URL      = git://carpetcode.org/carpet

 In particular, the url did not change, but it moved from URL to AUTH_URL,
 while the URL method is now new. The url required authorization all along,
 but since GetComponents does not support having an AUTH_URL without having
 a URL, it was given as URL.

 When I give the command

 $ ./bin/GetComponents --update --root=. manifest/einsteintoolkit.th

 I receive the error message:

 Error: The URL for Carpet/doc has changed, please perform a clean
 checkout.

 Note that I don't use (and I think I never did use) the -a flag for
 GetComponents.

 I checked the repository, and the current url is the same as in the
 manifest:

 $ (cd repos/carpet; hg showconfig paths.default)
 ssh://carpetmercurial@carpetcode.org/carpet



 Where does GetComponents store the previous url? How can I make it believe
 that my repo url did not actually change? Is this connected with switching
 from an anonymous to an authorized checkout? If so, how do I make this
 switch "officially"?
