outgoing: rework the handling of the `missingroots` case to be faster The previous implementation was slow, to the point it was taking a significant amount of `hg bundle --type none-streamv2` call. We rework the code to compute the same value much faster, making the operation disappear from the `hg bundle --type none-streamv2` profile. Someone would remark that producing a streamclone does not requires an `outgoing` object. However that is a matter for another day. There is other user of `missingroots` (non stream `hg bundle` call for example), and they will also benefit from this rework. We implement an old TODO in the process, directly computing the missing and common attribute as we have most element at hand already. ### benchmark.name = hg.command.bundle # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default # benchmark.variants.revs = all # benchmark.variants.type = none-streamv2 ## data-env-vars.name = heptapod-public-2024-03-25-zstd-sparse-revlog before: 7.750458 after: 6.665565 (-14.00%, -1.08) ## data-env-vars.name = mercurial-public-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog before: 0.700229 after: 0.496050 (-29.16%, -0.20) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog before: 346.508952 after: 316.749699 (-8.59%, -29.76) ## data-env-vars.name = pypy-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog before: 3.401700 after: 2.915810 (-14.28%, -0.49) ## data-env-vars.name = tryton-public-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog before: 1.870798 after: 1.461583 (-21.87%, -0.41) note: this whole `missingroots` of outgoing has a limited number of callers and could likely be replace by something simpler (like taking an explicit "missing_revs" set for example). However this is a wider change and we focus on a small impact, quick rework that does not change the API for now.

== New Features ==

 * `hg config` now has a `--source` option to show where each
   configuration value comes from.
 * Introduced a command (debug-repair-issue6528) to repair repositories affected
   by issue6528 where certain files would show up as modified even if they were
   clean due to an issue in the copy-tracing code.

== Default Format Change ==

These changes affect newly created repositories (or new clone) done with
Mercurial 5.9.


== New Experimental Features ==

 * A `changelogv2` format has been introduced. It is not ready for use yet, but
   will be used later to address some of the weaknesses of the current revlog
   format.
 * Initial experiment and support for `dirstatev2`, a new dirstate format that
   addresses some of the weaknesses of the current dirstate format. Python + C
   and Rust support are being implemented, but the Rust solution is the one
   currently getting the attention for performance.
 * Initial support for `rhg status`. `rhg` is the Rust wrapper executable for hg
   that shortcuts some commands for faster execution speed.

== Bug Fixes ==

 * Fixed committing empty files with `narrow`
 * Allow overriding `pip`'s pep517 compliance to build C or Rust extensions
 * Fixed regression on outgoing email when not specifying revisions
 * Fixed a regression causing bookmarks to disappear when using Rust persistent nodemap
 * Fixed a regression (in 5.9.1) introduced in 5.9 when cloning repos with
   deep filenames
 * Fixed detection of directories becoming symlinks, but only when using the
   Rust extensions.
 * Fixed ignore and include not composing in the Rust status
 * `hg commit --interactive` now handles deselecting edits of a rename
 * Fixed a case where `hg evolve` gives different results when interrupted
 * Fixed a memory leak in phases computation
 * `histedit` and `shelve` don't swallow errors when updating the working copy
   anymore
 * Improve error message when detecting content-divergence with a hidden
   common predecessor
 * No longer re-order parents in filelog, see issue6533
 * Fix revisions affected by issue6533 on the fly during exchange
 * Many Windows fixes for stability and py3 compatibility improvements
 * Many other miscellaneous fixes

== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==


== Internal API Changes ==

The Dirstate API have been updated as the previous function leaked some
internal details and did not distinguish between two important cases: "We are
changing parent and need to adjust the dirstate" and "some command is changing
which file is tracked". To clarify the situation:

* the following functions have been deprecated,

  - `dirstate.add`,
  - `dirstate.normal`,
  - `dirstate.normallookup`,
  - `dirstate.merge`,
  - `dirstate.otherparent`,
  - `dirstate.remove`,
  - `dirstate.drop`,
  - `dirstateitem.__getitem__`,

* these new functions are added for the "adjusting parents" use-case:

  - `dirstate.update_file`,
  - `dirstate.update_file_p1`,

* these new function are added for the "adjusting wc file" use-case":

  - `dirstate.set_tracked`,
  - `dirstate.set_untracked`,
  - `dirstate.set_clean`,
  - `dirstate.set_possibly_dirty`,

See inline documentation of the new functions for details.

* Additionally, the following have been deprecated:
  - `urlutil.getpath` function
  - `localrepository.updatecaches`' `full` argument

* The following have been removed:
  - `revlog.revlogio` has been removed
