bundle: fix performance regression when bundling file changes (issue4031) Somewhere before 2.7, a change [ec896f9e8894] was committed that entailed a large performance regression when bundling (and therefore remote cloning) repositories. For each file in the repository, it would recompute the set of needed changesets even though it is the same for all files. This computation would dominate bundle runtimes according to profiler output (by 10x or more).

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
