So just to be clear, instead of being able to "hg push -f try" will
one now need to do "./mach try syntax ....." and put in the actual
syntax string on every single try push?
The reason I ask is that a very common use case for me is having a
single try syntax that I want to apply to multiple changesets (e.g.
bisecting things on try, or doing A/B comparisons on some tests
with/without some patches, etc). Having a trysyntax changeset or ten
in my mq works pretty well for this. I can give them names that
indicate what sort of try push they do, so if I want to do a "linux64,
tests, no talos" changeset I don't have to go around digging for the
try syntax for it: I already have something that has a name indicating
that, and qpushing it is pretty easy with the name-substring matching
qpush does.
There are obviously ways mach try could support this, e.g. by being
able to easily define aliases for particular ways of pushing to try or
whatnot. But it doesn't have an obvious way of doing that right now.
I've never used it, but it already has pretty much exactly this. Look at
--save, --preset, and --list-presets under ./mach help try syntax
