stream-clone: disable gc for `_entries_walk` duration
The number of small container created turn Python in a gc-frenzy that seriously
impact performance.
This significantly boost performance. The following number comes from a large
private repository using perf::stream-locked-section:
base-line: 35.04 seconds
prev-change: 24.51 seconds (-30%)
this-change: 20.88 seconds (-40% from baseline; -15% from previous changes)
Mercurial
=========
Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.
Basic install::
$ make # see install targets
$ make install # do a system-wide install
$ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
$ hg # see help
Running without installing::
$ make local # build for inplace usage
$ ./hg --version # should show the latest version
See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
Notes for packagers
===================
Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to
provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The
module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor
is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard
to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported
configuration.
