if the client has a different "@" (head of the master branch) and "@" is ahead

of the server, the server can detect things are unchanged and does not return

full contents (not that there is no "writing ... to fastannotate"), but the

client can also build things up on its own (causing diverge)

revert bookmark change so the client is behind the server

  $ hg bookmark -r 2 @ -f

in the "fctx" mode with the "annotate" command, the client also downloads the

cache. but not in the (default) "fastannotate" mode.

  $ rm $p1/a.l $p1/a.m

  $ hg annotate a --debug | grep 'fastannotate: writing'

  $ hg annotate a --config fastannotate.modes=fctx --debug | grep 'fastannotate: writing' | sort

  fastannotate: writing 112 bytes to fastannotate/default/a.l

  fastannotate: writing 94 bytes to fastannotate/default/a.m

the fastannotate cache (built server-side, downloaded client-side) in two repos

have the same content (because the client downloads from the server)

  $ diff $p1/a.l $p2/a.l

  $ diff $p1/a.m $p2/a.m

in the "fctx" mode, the client could also build the cache locally

  $ hg annotate a --config fastannotate.modes=fctx --debug --config fastannotate.mainbranch=4 | grep fastannotate

  fastannotate: requesting 1 files

  fastannotate: a: 1 new changesets in the main branch

the server would rebuild broken cache automatically

  $ cp $p2/a.m $p2/a.m.bak

  $ echo BROKEN1 > $p1/a.m

  $ echo BROKEN2 > $p2/a.m

  $ hg fastannotate a --debug | grep 'fastannotate: writing' | sort

  fastannotate: writing 112 bytes to fastannotate/default/a.l

  fastannotate: writing 94 bytes to fastannotate/default/a.m

  $ diff $p1/a.m $p2/a.m

  $ diff $p2/a.m $p2/a.m.bak

use the "debugbuildannotatecache" command to build annotate cache

  $ rm -rf $p1 $p2

  $ hg --cwd ../repo-server debugbuildannotatecache a --debug

with the clientfetchthreshold config option, the client can build up the cache

without downloading from the server

  $ rm -rf $p1
