stream-clone: disable gc for the entry listing section for the v2 format This is similar to the change we did for the v3 format in 6e4c8366c5ce. The benchmark bellow show this gives us a notable gains, especially on larger repositories. ### benchmark.name = hg.perf.stream-locked-section # benchmark.name = hg.perf.stream-locked-section # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default # benchmark.variants.version = v2 ## data-env-vars.name = pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 0.503820 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 0.470078 (-6.70%, -0.03) ## data-env-vars.name = pypy-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 0.535756 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 0.490249 (-8.49%, -0.05) ## data-env-vars.name = heptapod-public-2024-03-25-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 1.327041 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 1.174636 (-11.48%, -0.15) ## data-env-vars.name = netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 2.439158 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 2.220515 (-8.96%, -0.22) ## data-env-vars.name = netbeans-2019-11-07-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 2.630794 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 2.261473 (-14.04%, -0.37) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 5.769002 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 5.062000 (-12.26%, -0.71) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2019-02-18-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 13.351750 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 12.346655 (-7.53%, -1.01) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 10.772939 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 9.495407 (-11.86%, -1.28) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-unified-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 10.864297 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 9.475597 (-12.78%, -1.39) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 17.448335 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 16.027474 (-8.14%, -1.42)

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.
