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)

#require symlink

Create extension that can disable symlink support:

  $ cat > nolink.py <<EOF
  > from mercurial import extensions, util
  > def setflags(orig, f, l, x):
  >     pass
  > def checklink(orig, path):
  >     return False
  > def extsetup(ui):
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'setflags', setflags)
  >     extensions.wrapfunction(util, 'checklink', checklink)
  > EOF

  $ hg init unix-repo
  $ cd unix-repo
  $ echo foo > a
  $ ln -s a b
  $ hg ci -Am0
  adding a
  adding b
  $ cd ..

Simulate a checkout shared on NFS/Samba:

  $ hg clone -q unix-repo shared
  $ cd shared
  $ rm b
  $ echo foo > b
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py status --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Make a clone using placeholders:

  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py clone . ../win-repo
  updating to branch default
  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ cd ../win-repo
  $ cat b
  a (no-eol)
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug

Empty placeholder:

  $ rm b
  $ touch b
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Write binary data to the placeholder:

  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this is a binary\0') and None
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Write a long string to the placeholder:

  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this' * 1000) and None
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

Commit shouldn't succeed:

  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
  nothing changed
  [1]

Write a valid string to the placeholder:

  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this') and None
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
  M b
  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
  $ hg manifest tip --verbose
  644   a
  644 @ b

  $ cd ..
