rebase: rename "target" to "destination" in messages The help text for rebase calls it "the destination" (never "target"), so let's use that in messages as well.

rebase: rename "target" to "dest" in variable names It took me a while to figure out that "target" was actually what's passed to --dest.

sslutil: remove conditional cipher code needed for Python 2.6 We dropped support for Python 2.6. So this code to work around a missing feature on 2.6 is no longer necessary.

merge: use repo.wvfs.setflags() instead of util.setflags() Most merge.py code goes through the vfs instead of maniulating files directly, so let's do the same here.

merge with stable

revlog: move part of "addrevision" to "addrawrevision" "addrawrevision" will be the public API to reuse revision rawdata elsewhere. It will be used by a future patch.

filectx: add an overlayfilectx class The end goal is to make it possible to avoid potential expensive fctx.data() when unnecessary. While memctx is useful for creating new file contexts, there are many cases where we could reuse an existing raw file revision (amend, histedit, rebase, process a revision constructed by a remote peer, etc). The overlayfilectx class is made to support such reuse cases. Together with a later patch, hash calculation and expensive flag processor could be avoided.

filectx: remove __new__ It does not seem to be used anywhere, and breaks a later patch.

filectx: add a rawflags method The new method returns the low-level revlog flag. We already have "rawdata" so a "rawflags" makes sense. Both "rawflags" and "rawdata" will be used in a later patch.

filectx: move size to basefilectx See previous patch for context - avoid code duplication.
