Commit message

Stricter checks on configuration option names.

Description of the change

There are several use case where config values expansion fails in unhelpful
ways:

- {1,2} as reported in http://pad.lv/1235099

- When templates are used to produce bash scripts (though that case could be
  better addressed by allowing some escape mechanism, I'd rather fix that as
  a separate bug).

Unfortunately for readability, I had to move the regexp definition so here
are the old and new ones for clarity:

-_option_ref_re = lazy_regex.lazy_compile('({[^{}\n]+})')
+_option_ref_re = lazy_regex.lazy_compile('({[^\d\W](?:\.\w|\w)*})')

I.e. valid python identifier (including dotted ones).

As the bug demonstrate we were allowing some illegal option names in the option values and were giving bad error reporting.

This proposal doesn't change which option names are legal (only invalid references could be used before and led to failures) but give better error messages.

I've made a few cleanup changes in lp:~vila/bzr/1235099-prereq which don't seem worth presenting here.

Hi, after that change bzr-svn raise an exception:

Option "guessed-layout" is not allowed.
bzr: ERROR: exceptions.TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable

Your regex doesnt support - in option names.

When I modify the regex to:
_option_ref_re = lazy_regex.lazy_compile('({[^\d\W](?:\.\w|\w|-\w)*})')

it seems to fix that. But I am no regex or python expert. Can you have a look please?

Me too.
