Missing tags (again) on Mercurial

[Tony Mechelynck]

Something has gone wrong again.

Remember: tags v9.0.2140 to v9.0.2142 had gone missing, but tags
v9.0.2143 to v9.0.2155 had been set correctly. Well, now tags
v9.0.2156 to v9.0.2158 have gone missing again.

This concerns only the Mercurial .hgtags metadata (and I don't know
about any git metadata). In all cases the src/version.c contains the
full list of patch numbers.

Best regards,
Tony.

Fixed. Not sure why this happened, the script did not receive a tag when
processing the git revision. This could happen, if I push out a new
patch, then the hg-bridge runs and a few moments later the tag is
pushed. However, this shouldn't happen 3 times in a row, so it's a bit
mysterious.

I added some extra logic to parse the subject line in addition when this
happens again.

Thanks,
Christian

IOW, a race condition between the git commit and the hg fetch (or
whatever it is called). Let's hope your fix catches it in the future.
I'll keep eyes peeled in any case.

My pleasure,
Tony.
