Mercurial addhgdiffs adding /b directory to reviews?

Recently changed CM systems from git to mercurial and switched from posting differences to reviews from addgitdiffs to the addhgdiffs.

 

One small but unexpected change as a result of making this switch is that all source files/diffs posted to review through the addhgdiffs interface are now listed in the review under a b/ subdiretory. For example, if I post file src/component/foo.C from the base of my repo the file will be listed under b/src/component in the review materials.

 

This isn't exactly a deal breaker but I am getting questions about what the b/ signifinies.

    Hello Teg,

     

    This behavior is not expected for Collaborator. Most probably, it depends on the workflow that you are using for the process of uploading review materials. To help you solve the problem, we need to get the Collaborator log files so that we could determine the cause of this issue.

     

    Apparently, you can't upload the files in the Community thread, because they contain your company’s confidential information. So, we'll need to open a support case and work on the problem there. I was trying to create a case on your behalf in our system. But, I couldn't find your Company key in our database. Could you please submit a case yourself and specify your company key in the description using this link?


    If you don't know your Company key, you may be able to find it at the bottom of WebUI on the home screen by hovering over the "Support until" date. Otherwise, it can be found on the "Admin > Licensing" page. Please note that you will need to obtain this information from your Collaborator administrator if you do not have admin rights.
