tests: add lots of regex matching to test-http-bad-server.t This makes the test pass in Python 2.6. It's all one of two problems: 1) abort: error: '' (2.7) vs abort: error: (2.6) 2) 65537 (2.7) vs -1 (2.6) With some...unfortunate escaping required due to how regular expressions work. Sigh.

tests: pass only one file at a time to tail(1) It looks like the verison on Solaris only tails one file at a time.

debian: configure editor and pager to sensible-\1 by default Now that environment variables override system-wide hgrc settings, we can default Mercurial to sensible-editor and sensible-pager by default for debian users.

tests: work around flaky test failure on FreeBSD and relatives test-http-bad-server has a flaky output case that reproduces fairly often (20% or more of runs on my Mac) on BSD-family OSes. So that tests can be green for the 4.2 release, let's more or less give up on this output, and plan to pursue it in the future.

context: start walking from "introrev" in blockancestors() Previously, calling blockancestors() with a fctx not touching file would sometimes yield this filectx first, instead of the first "block ancestor", because when compared to its parent it may have changes in specified line range despite not touching the file at all. Fixing this by starting the algorithm from the "base" filectx obtained using fctx.introrev() (as done in annotate()). In tests, add a changeset not touching file we want to follow lines of to cover this case. Do this in test-annotate.t for followlines revset tests and in test-hgweb-filelog.t for /log/<rev>/<file>?linerange=<from>:<to> tests.

sshpeer: try harder to snag stderr when stdout closes unexpectedly Resolves test failures on FreeBSD, but I'm not happy about the fix. A previous version of this also wrapped readline by putting the hack in the _call method on doublepipe. That was confusing for readers and wasn't necessary - just doing this on read() is sufficient to fix the bugs I'm observing. We can always come back and do readline later if needed.

test-worker: disable tests of forked workers on Windows The number of the "Traceback" lines differs on Windows because the main process does not raise SystemExit.

test-profile: allow negative time in JSON output (issue5542) I don't know why it can be a negative number, but that shouldn't be important here.

show: add basic labels to work template `hg show work` is much more usable if output is colored. This patch implements coloring via label() in a very hacky way. In a default Mercurial install, you'll see yellow node labels for all phases. Branches and bookmarks use the same formatting as the commit message. So this change doesn't help much in a default install. But if you have a custom colors defined for these things, output is much more readable. The implementation obviously needs some work. But for a minor change on a feature that isn't convered by BC, this seems like a clear win for the feature in 4.2.

show: rename "underway" to "work" Durham and I both like this better than "underway." We can add aliases and bikeshed on the name during the 4.3 cycle, as this whole extension is highly experimental.
