Module b.generate_ids

Common code for generating file or revision ids.

Line #	Kind	Name	Docs
67	Function	gen_file_id	Return new file id for the basename 'name'.
88	Function	gen_root_id	Return a new tree-root file id.
93	Function	gen_revision_id	Return new revision-id.
43	Function	_next_id_suffix	Create a new file id suffix that is reasonably unique.

def _next_id_suffix():

Create a new file id suffix that is reasonably unique.

On the first call we combine the current time with 64 bits of randomness to give a highly probably globally unique number. Then each call in the same process adds 1 to a serial number we append to that unique value.

def gen_file_id(name):

Return new file id for the basename 'name'.

The uniqueness is supplied from _next_id_suffix.

def gen_root_id():

Return a new tree-root file id.

def gen_revision_id(username, timestamp=None):

Return new revision-id.

Parameters	username	This is the value returned by config.username(), which is typically a real name, followed by an email address. If found, we will use just the email address portion. Otherwise we flatten the real name, and use that.
Returns	A new revision id.
