webrev failure?

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi all,

Apologies if these are the wrong mailing lists, but I'm assuming that
the webrev tool falls under this domain somewhat.

In order to get patches into the OpenJDK as cleanly as possible, we're
looking to utilise webrev (since it's the std and all).

Running "ksh ./make/scripts/webrev.ksh -f" over the latest jdk8/tl
source (no patches, but a full build was completed using build-infra)
and I got a host of errors:

--------

   SCM detected: mercurial
hg: unknown command 'foutgoing'
abort: cannot follow file not in parent revision: "Mercurial"
abort: cannot follow file not in parent revision: "basic"
abort: cannot follow file not in parent revision: "add"
abort: cannot follow file not in parent revision: "annotate"
..
..

--------

A separate, yet related set of errors are at
http://pastebin.com/q0tF1A4m for sake of brevity in this mail.

I assume I'm running this tool incorrectly, I expected a result of
something like "You've changed nothing, nothing to se here move along
please" :-)

Cheers,
Martijn
