profile: indent part of '__enter__' We are about to introduce a try except. We start with adding the indent to make the next patch clearer.

profile: remove now useless indent We no longer rely on the value of '_output' so we can remove this conditional.

profile: use explicit logic to control file closing We make the decision to close 'fp' more explicit instead of relying on the implication of other variable. This makes the overall logic more robust.

profiling: move 'fp' closing logic into its own function We are about to make the logic more robust and reuse it in more place, we start by isolating what we have.

py3: use python3 hg in test-py3-commands.t at places where py2 hg was used This patch fixes my mistakes where I added test in test-py3-commands.t as `hg ...` where I forgot hg here refers to Python 2 mercurial.

test-dirstate-race: back out changeset c82fa7efcbc8 This is non-deterministic. In any case, I switched to using debugrebuilddirstate in my WIP patches, which makes this moot.

revset: fix order of first/last members in compound expression (BC) Suppose len(subset) >> len(ls) in common cases, 'subset & ls' should be avoided whenever possible.

revset: filter first/last members by __and__ operation This replaces 'if y in subset' with '& subset'. first(null) and last(wdir()) are fixed thanks to fullreposet.__and__. This also revealed that first() and last() don't follow the order of the input set. 'ls & subset' is valid only if the ordering requirement is 'define' or 'any'. No performance regression observed: revset #0: limit(0:9999, 100, 9000) 0) 0.001164 1) 0.001135 revset #2: 9000 & limit(0:9999, 100, 9000) 0) 0.001224 1) 0.001181 revset #3: last(0:9999, 100) 0) 0.000237 1) 0.000199

revset: reject negative number to select first/last n members Negative 'lim' doesn't make sense here, and it makes things complicated when using list[:lim].

revset: fix order of last() n members where n > 1 (BC) last() is implemented using a reversed iterator, so the result should be reversed again. I've marked this as BC since it's quite old bug seen in 3.0. The first bad revision is 4849f574aa24 "revset: changed last implementation to use lazy classes."

debugrevspec: add option to suppress list of computed revisions Test will be added later.

debugrevspec: add option to print representation of smartset object It's possible by -v, but -v also prints a parsed tree. Test will be added later.

help: correct description of "glob:foo/*" matching Unlike what the description says, it does not match recursively. Also add an example of "glob:foo/**" (which does match recursively).

bookmarks: make sure we close the bookmark file after reading We previously lacked an explicit close of the bookmark file.

bookmarks: rephrase a comment to be shorted and clearer The initial motivation is that I need an initial level of indent in the next changeset o:-) It turn out I like the new version better.

checkheads: use a "lazyancestors" object for allfuturecommon Instead of walking all ancestors to compute the full set we now check membership lazily. This massively speed. On a million-ish revision repository, this remove 14 seconds from the push logic, making the checkheads function disappear from profile.

checkheads: use "revnum" in the "allfuturecommon" set The obsolete post-processing needs to know the extend of the pushed set. The way it is implemented is... suboptimal. It build a full set of all nodes in the pushset and it does so using changectx. We have much better API for this now. The simplest is to use the existing lazy ancestors computation. That logic uses revnum and not node (for good reason) so we start with updating the post-processing code to handle a "allfuturecommon" set containing revision numbers.

checkheads: use 'nodemap.get' to convert nodes to revs We are about to call 'torev' on node that might be locally missing. In this case, 'nodemap.revs' will return None (something valid in our usecase) while 'changelog.rev' would raise an exception. We make this change in a distinct changeset to show it does not impact the tests.

checkheads: pass "ispushed" function to the obsmarkers logic We are about to make "allfuturecommon" a set of revs instead of a set of nodes. The function updated in this patch do not needs to know about these details so we just pass it a 'ispushed(node)' function. This will simplify the next changeset.

profile: drop maybeprofile It seems sufficiently simple to use "profile(enabled=X)" to not justify having a dedicated context manager just to read the config. (I do not have a too strong opinion about this).

profile: support --profile in alias and abbreviated version (--prof) We now process the "--profile" a second time after alias has been processed and the command argument fully parsed. If appropriate we enable profiling at that time. In these situation, the --profile will cover less than if the full --profile flag was passed on the command line. This is better than the previous behavior (flag ignored) and still fullfil multiple valid usecases.

profile: make the contextmanager object available to the callers This will allow calling methods on the object in the code using the context manager.

profile: introduce a knob to control if the context is actually profiling This is a step toward allowing context where the profiling in enabled withing the context range. This also open the way to kill the dedicated "maybeprofile" context manager and keep only one of 'profile' and 'maybeprofile'.

profile: introduce a "start" method to the profile context The start method is doing all profiler setup and activation. It is currently unconditionally called by '__init__' but this will be made more flexible in later changesets.

profile: upgrade the "profile" context manager to a full class So far we have been able to use a simple decorator for this. However using the current context manager makes the scope of the profiling in dispatch constrainted and the time frame to decide to enable profiling quite limited (using "maybeprofile") This is the first step toward the ability to enable the profiling from within the profiling scope. eg:: with maybeprofiling(ui) as profiler: ... bar.foo(): ... if options['profile']: profiler.start() ... fooz() ... My target usecase is adding support for "--profile" to alias definitions with effect. These are to be used with "profiling.output=blackbox" to gather data about operation that get slow from time to time (eg: pull being minutes instead of seconds from time to time). Of course, in such case, the scope of the profiling would be smaller since profiler would be started after running extensions 'reposetup' (and other potentially costly logic), but these are not relevant for my target usecase (multiple second commits, multiple tens of seconds pull). Currently adding '--profile' to a command through alias requires to re-spin a Mercurial binary (using "!$HG" in alias), which as a significant performance impact, especially in context where startup performance is being worked on... An alternative approach would be to stop using the context manager in dispatch and move back to a try/finally setup.

setup: avoid linker warnings on Windows about multiple export specifications The PyMODINIT_FUNC macro contains __declspec(dllexport), and then the build process adds an "/EXPORT func" to the command line. The 64-bit linker flags this [1]. Everything except zstd.c and bser.c are covered by redefining the macro in util.h [2]. These modules aren't built with util.h in the #include path, so the redefining hack would have to be open coded two more times. After seeing that extra_linker_flags didn't work, I couldn't find anything authoritative indicating why, though I did see an offhand comment on SO that CFLAGS is also ignored on Windows. I also don't fully understand the interaction between msvccompiler and msvc9compiler- I first subclassed the latter, but it isn't used when building with VS2008. I know the camelcase naming isn't the standard, but the HackedMingw32CCompiler class above it was introduced 5 years ago (and I think the current style was in place by then), so I assume that there's some reason for it. [1] https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/835326/you-receive-an-lnk4197-error-in-the-64-bit-version-of-the-visual-c-compiler [2] https://bugs.python.org/issue9709#msg120859

memctx: always use cache for filectxfn I don't see a downside to doing this unless I'm missing something. Thanks to foozy for correcting my previous bad logic.

test-hardlinks: stabilize for Windows This broke in c2cb0de25120, which breaks hardlinks when the executable bit is toggled.

releasenotes: add more tests for formatting and merging of release notes

releasenotes: command to manage release notes files Per discussion on the mailing list, we want better release notes for Mercurial. This patch introduces an extension that provides a command for producing release notes files. Functionality is implemented as an extension because it could be useful outside of the Mercurial project and because there is some code (like rst parsing) that already exists in Mercurial and it doesn't make sense to reinvent the wheel. The general idea with the extension is that changeset authors declare release notes in commit messages using rst directives. Periodically (such as at publishing or release time), a project maintainer runs `hg releasenotes` to extract release notes fragments from commit messages and format them to an auto-generated release notes file. More details are explained inline in docstrings. There are several things that need addressed before this is ready for prime time: * Moar tests * Interactive merge mode * Implement similarity detection for individual notes items * Support customizing section names/titles * Parsing improvements for bullet lists and paragraphs * Document which rst primitives can be parsed * Retain arbitrary content (e.g. header section/paragraphs) from existing release notes file * Better error messages (line numbers, hints, etc)

packagelib: use LANGUAGE=C for "hg version" If "hg version" does not contain "version" (e.g. Japanese), $hgversion was empty and rpmbuild failed.

rpms: add hgdemandimport in files

rpms: remove '%if "%{?pythonver}" != "2.4"' Mercurial requires python >= 2.7.

obsstore: do not load all markers to detect duplication This will make duplication detection something like O(newmarkers) instead of O(obsstore).

clonebundles: reference correct config option This option is no longer experimental.

filestat: move __init__ to frompath constructor We're going to add a `fromfp` constructor soon, and this also allows a filestat object for a non-existent file to be created.

test-dirstate-race: ensure that a isn't in the lookup set at the end We're going to rely on this in upcoming patches.

hghave: add test for whether fsmonitor is enabled This uses the HGFSMONITOR_TESTS environment variable that fsmonitor-run-tests.py adds.

tests: add a wrapper to run fsmonitor tests This script does a bunch of non-trivial configuration work: in particular, it sets up an isolated instance of Watchman which isn't affected by global state and can be torn down on completion. This script also sets the HGFSMONITOR_TESTS environment variable, which hghave will use in the next patch to allow gating on whether fsmonitor is enabled. With fsmonitor enabled, there appear to be a number of failures in the test suite. It's not yet clear to me why they're happening, but if someone would like to jump in and fix some of them I hope this will be helpful for that.

setdiscovery: improves logged message The 'srvheads' list contains all server heads including the common ones. We adjust 'ui.log' message to provide more useful information about server heads locally unknown. The performance impact of turning the list to set is negligible (about 1e-4s) compared to the rest of the discovery cost, so I'm taking the easy path.

tests: handle variation between pure and normal output in annotate --skip I'm pretty sure that both results are valid, depending on how you slice the edits.

bisect: improve option validation message

context: inline makememctx (API) I have always thought it weird that we have a helper method instead of just using __init__. So, I ripped it out.

context: add convenience method for returning a memfilectx from a patch This is mostly a copy of what makememctx does but refactored to make it behave more like our other convenience methods.

memctx: refactor inline getfilectx into convenience method No actual logic is changing, just moving code so __init__ is easier to read.

hgweb: refresh styling of gitweb's search form gitweb was missing the hint hover box. So that was added. Also, the positioning of the form was absolute and it didn't vertically align on all pages. The element has been moved inline with the navigation links (which now are contained in a div) and flexbox is used to obtain sane alignment of the navigation links and search form. For those new to flexbox, "justify-content: space-between" basically says to maximize space elements. You can use it to easily get left and right justified containers without having to worry about width, floating, etc. "align-items: center" centers all items in a cross-axis. I've literally wasted hours trying to figure out both these problems before flexbox. Flexbox is amazing. Flexbox has been supported by Chrome and Firefox for a few years. But it is only supported by IE 11. I'm willing to wager that people using this either won't be using IE or will be using IE 11. So I'm willing to be a bit aggressive in adopting flexbox because it makes CSS alignment so much easier.

hgweb: consistently add search form to all gitweb pages Paper has it on all pages. Not sure why gitweb doesn't. I think it should be everywhere because it is a useful feature. Also, we weren't consistently adding the HTML in the same place. This was OK since the element is absolutely positioned. But this bothered me a bit, so I went ahead and fixed it.

hgweb: consolidate search form for gitweb

hgweb: consolidate search form for monoblue Same deal as for paper.

hgweb: consolidate search form for paper AFAICT this was mostly a bunch of copy pasta. The only variation is some pages defined a "value" attribute. The "query" variable will just be empty on pages that don't accept it. So let's consolidate the template and remove the redundancy.

test-extension: fix load path for Windows The previous code was trying to load the extension from /tmp/hgtests.xxx/..., but the actual path for tests is C:\Users\...\Temp\hgtests.xxx\... I assume that the former is an MSYS path that maps somewhere under C:\MinGW.

test-setdiscovery: stabilize for Windows Windows wants double quotes here.

convert: correct the documentation about whitespace in branchmap branches Might as well let the users know they can get rid of branch names with spaces.

py3: use pycompat.bytestr() instead of str()

py3: convert bool variables to bytes

context: avoid writing outdated dirstate out (issue5584) Before this patch, workingctx.status() may cause writing outdated dirstate out, if: - .hg/dirstate is changed simultaneously after last loading it, - there is any file, which should be dirstate.normal()-ed Typical issue case is: - the working directory is updated by "hg update" - .hg/dirstate is updated in background (e.g. fsmonitor) This patch compares identities of dirstate before and after acquisition of wlock, and avoids writing outdated dirstate out, if change of .hg/dirstate is detected.

tests: factor external procedures out for portability Fortunately, "&&" is treated as "execute next, if previous doesn't fail" both on POSIX and Windows. But keeping portability of "dirstaterace.command" manually is troublesome. This patch factors external procedures out as a shell script for portability. "sh SCRIPT" always allows scripting in POSIX style. This change is also for convenience. Fixed script name can reduce command line arguments. "r" prefix is needed for "sh '$TESTTMP/dirstaterace.sh'", because $TESTTMP contains backslash on Windows.

dirstate: add identity information to detect simultaneous changing in storage This identity is used to examine whether dirstate is simultaneously changed in storage after previous caching (see issue5584 for detail). util.cachestat can't be used for this purpose, because it has no valuable information on Windows. On the other hand, util.filestat can detect changing dirstate in storage certainly, regardless of platforms. https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ExactCacheValidationPlan Strictly speaking, if underlying filesystem doesn't support ctime/mtime, util.filestat can't detect simultaneous changing in storage as expected. But simultaneous changing on such (very rare) platform can't be detected regardless of this patch series. Therefore, util.filestat should be reasonable identity for almost all usecases.

util: make filestat.__eq__ return True if both of self and old have None stat For convenience to compare two filestat objects regardless of None-ness of stat field.

vfs: create copy at renaming to avoid file stat ambiguity if needed In order to fix issue5418, bff5ccbe5ead made vfs.rename(checkambig=True) omit advancing mtime of renamed file, if renamed file is owned by another (EPERM is raised in this case). But this omission causes rewinding mtime at restoration in such situation, and makes avoiding file stat ambiguity difficult, because ExactCacheValidationPlan assumes that mtime should be advanced, if a file is changed in same ctime. https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ExactCacheValidationPlan Ambiguity of file stat also requires issue5584 to be fixed with other than file stat, but "hash of file", "generation ID" and so on were already rejected ideas (please see original RFC linked from "Outline of issue" in ExactCacheValidationPlan page). This omission occurs: - only for non append-only files (dirstate, bookmarks, and phaseroots), and - only if previous transaction is rollbacked by another user The latter means "sharing a repository clone via group permission". This is reasonable usecase, but not ordinary for many users, IMHO. "hg rollback" itself has been deprecated since Mercurial 2.7, too. Therefore, increasing the cost at rollbacking previous transaction executed by another a little seems reasonable, for avoidance of file stat ambiguity. This patch does: - create copy of (already renamed) source file, if advancing mtime fails for EPERM - rename from copied file to destination file, and - advance mtime of renamed file, which is now owned by current user This patch also factors "self.join(src)" out to reduce redundancy.

vfs: factor out "rename and avoid ambiguity" to reuse This makes subsequent patch simple.

util: make filestat.avoidambig() return whether ambiguity is avoided or not

debugcommands: issue warning when repo has secret changesets (issue5589) This seems like a prudent thing to do. As the inline comment says, we may want to make this abort once the functionality is stabilized as part of `hg bundle`. Let's save that debate for another day.

streamclone: consider secret changesets (BC) (issue5589) Previously, a repo containing secret changesets would be served via stream clone, transferring those secret changesets. While secret changesets aren't meant to imply strong security (if you really want to keep them secret, others shouldn't have read access to the repo), we should at least make an effort to protect secret changesets when possible. After this commit, we no longer serve stream clones for repos containing secret changesets by default. This is backwards incompatible behavior. In case anyone is relying on the behavior, we provide a config option to opt into the old behavior. Note that this defense is only beneficial for remote repos accessed via the wire protocol: if a client has access to the files backing a repo, they can get to the raw data and see secret revisions.

json: pass formatting options recursively This bug was introduced in 654e9a1c8a6c. It's okay to escape <>, but is unnecessary for command output.

json: avoid extra string manipulation of dict keys A key must be string per JSON spec, and that's also true for template dicts.

test-obsolete: include <> in user field to check JSON escapes I found json() filter doesn't pass formatting options recursively. That's why <> are escaped.

templatefilers: correct filename in header comment

repoview: remove special casing of "requirements" At the time this code was introduced (3a6ddacb7198), the inline comment was true. This changed in e3a928bd1cd4. The proxy is no longer needed.

bookmarks: move variable initialization earlier Since we no longer set '_clean = False' during the initialization loop, we can move the attribute assignment earlier in the function for clarity. (no speed improvement expected or measured ;-) )

bookmarks: directly use base dict 'setitem' The bmstore '__setitem__' method is setting an extra flag that is not needed during initialization. Skipping the method will allow further cleanup and yield some speedup as a side effect. Before: ! wall 0.009120 comb 0.010000 user 0.010000 sys 0.000000 (best of 312) After: ! wall 0.007874 comb 0.010000 user 0.010000 sys 0.000000 (best of 360)

bookmarks: rely on exception for malformed lines Since we already have an exception context open, for other thing, we can simplify the code a bit and rely on exception handling for invalid lines. Speed is not the main motivation for this changes. However as I'm in the middle of benchmarking things we can see a small positive impact. Before: ! wall 0.009358 comb 0.000000 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 (best of 303) After: ! wall 0.009173 comb 0.010000 user 0.010000 sys 0.000000 (best of 310)

bookmarks: explicitly convert to 'node' during initialization We know the content of the file is supposed to be full hex. So we can do the translation ourselves and directly check if the node is known. As nice side effect we now have proper error handling for invalid node value. Before: ! wall 0.021580 comb 0.020000 user 0.020000 sys 0.000000 (best of 134) After: ! wall 0.009342 comb 0.010000 user 0.010000 sys 0.000000 (best of 302)

bookmarks: prefetch 'lookup' outside of the loop Skipping the attribute lookup up raise a significant speedup. Example on a repository with about 4000 bookmarks. Before: ! wall 0.026027 comb 0.020000 user 0.020000 sys 0.000000 (best of 112) After: ! wall 0.021580 comb 0.020000 user 0.020000 sys 0.000000 (best of 134) (This is also in its own changeset to clarify the perf win from another coming changesets)

perf: add a perfbookmarks command A new command dedicated to benchmark of bookmark initialization.

perfphases: add a flag to also include file access time The flag purges all phases data so we'll have to read the file from disk again.

perf: have a generic "clearstorecache" function There are multiple places where we will want to purge some store cache. So we promote the existing _clearobsstore function to a something reusable.

localrepo: move filtername to __init__ This is obviously an instance attribute, not a type attribute. The modern Python style is to use __init__ for defining these. This exposes statichttprepo as inheriting from localrepository without calling its __init__. As a result, its __init__ defines a lot of variables that methods on localrepository's methods need. But factoring the common bits into a separate class is for another day.

obsolete: move obsstore creation logic from localrepo This code has more to do with obsolete.py than localrepo.py. Let's move it there.

match: allow pats to be None match.match already interprets "!bool(patterns)" as matching everything (but includes and excludes still apply). We might as well allow None, which lets us simplify some callers a bit. I originally wrote this patch while trying to change match.match(patterns=[]) to mean to match no patterns. This patch is one step towards that goal. I'm not sure it'll be worth the effort to go all the way there, but I think this patch still makes sense on its own.

tests: add a test for installing hg with pip in a virtualenv Since we're doing so much clever junk in our setup.py, let's have a test that exercises it. Thanks to Matt Harbison for testing this on Windows and verifying that installenv/*/hg would work as a way to work around bin being called Scripts on Windows.

hghave: add check for virtualenv

setup: introduce dummy copies of setuptools flags Since we're filtering out some egg gunk, we need to emulate these flags which disable eggs so that pip still works.

extensions: catch uisetup and extsetup failures and don't let them break hg Otherwise users of the patience diff extension will be unable to run anything at all in hg 4.3 until they figure out what's broken.

tests: add test demonstrating how broken third-party extensions can get I intend to fix this, but will do the fix as a separate change to make the behavior change obvious. This was inspired by some users having the patience diff extension, which broke when we moved bdiff.so so thoroughly the users can't even run 'hg debuginstall'.

extensions: move wrapfilecache function from fsmonitor It makes more sense to put this in core, so other extensions can trivially get access to it without having to rely on importing fsmonitor.

chmod: create a new file when flags are set on a hardlinked file For performance reasons we have several repositories where the files in the working directory of 1 repo are hardlinks to the files of the other repo When an update in one repo results in a chmod of a such a file, the hardlink has to be deleted and replaced by a regular file to make sure that the change does not happen in the other repo

run-tests: make --restart work with output dir

run-tests: output coverage to output dir There do not appear to be any tests for this, and I've never used either of these options before, but this works.

run-tests: write JSON reports to output dir

run-tests: write test times to output dir

run-tests: allow specifying an output dir to write .errs to I'm trying to use run-tests.py on a read-only file system. This series allows that to happen.

run-tests: add information about skipped tests to XUnit output The XUnit spec supports skipped tests.

run-tests: wrap failures in an XUnit 'failure' element This is closer to what most XUnit consumers can understand.

discovery: log discovery result in non-trivial cases We log the discovery summary, the number of roundtrips and the elapsed time. This is useful to understand where slow push might come from when lloking at the blackbox.

discovery: include timing in the debug output Having such date easily available is useful. It also prepare the inclusion of some discovery related data in blackbox.

tests: remove sys.executable from "required tools" In practice this doesn't appear to have been true for some time - we reference Python using the $PYTHON variable in all the tests now (which we have to for PyPy and Python 3), and I've been using ~/.../python.exe to test with tip of the cpython 3.6 release branch while working on manifest tests in Python 3 and everything seems to be just fine. The only real observable difference from this change is that I stop getting a warning about python.exe not being a thing on $PATH, which seems like an improvement.

perfbranchmap: add an option to purge the revbranch cache The perf extension needs to be able to reflect this reality too. (eg: 4s vs 60s on a Million-ish revisions repository).

push: add a way to allow concurrent pushes on unrelated heads Client has a mechanism for the server to check that nothing changed server side since the client prepared a push. That check is wide and any head changed on the server will lead to an aborted push. We introduce a way for the client to send a less strict checking. That logic will check that no heads impacted by the push have been affected. If other unrelated heads (including named branches heads) have been affected, the push will proceed. This is very helpful for repositories with high developers traffic on different heads, a common setup. That behavior is currently controlled by an experimental option. The config should live in the "server" section but bike-shedding of the name will happen in the next changesets. Servers advertise this capability through a new bundle2 capability 'checkeads', using the value 'related'. The 'test-push-race.t' is updated to check that new capabilities on the documented cases.

headsummary: expose the 'discardedheads' set in the headssummary That information will be useful to detect push race on related part of the history. See next changeset for details.

checkheads: perform obsolescence post processing directly in _headssummary The goal is to have the function directly return something meaningful and useful for the whole pull. Note: we skip adding post-processing in '_oldheadssummary' because if a client is too old for branchmap it will be too old for obsolescence too.

headssummary: directly feed the function with the 'pushop' object Our goal is to be able to perform the post processing directly into the '_headssummary' function. However before this patch the '_headsummary' function only had access to repo, remote, outgoing while the '_postprocessobsolete' function takes a 'pushop' object. Experience shows that having the 'pushop' object helps extensions so we update '_headssummary' to take a pushop object as argument.

checkheads: gather the postprocessing with other obsolescence specific code We extract this function from the loop and gather it with the rest of the obsolescence specific code. That will help to clarify the move of the whole logic inside the "heads summary" computation.

run-tests: add a way to list tests, with JSON and XUnit support Some test runners are interested in listing tests, so they can do their own filtering on top (usually based on attributes like historically observed runtime). Add support for that.

run-tests: install hg after computing tests to run We're going to add a way to list tests, and we don't need to install hg for that.

run-tests: make time field optional for xunit report We're going to use XUnit to list tests, and we don't have a time field in that case.

run-tests: factor out json write code into another method We're going to use this code to output a JSON-formatted listing of tests.

run-tests: factor out xunit write code into another method We're going to use this code to output an XUnit-formatted listing of tests.

revset: lookup descendents for negative arguments to ancestor operator Negative offsets to the `~` operator now search for descendents. The search is aborted when a node has more than one child as we do not have a definition for 'nth child'. Optionally we can introduce such a notion and take the nth child ordered by rev number. The current revset language does provides a short operator for ancestor lookup but not for descendents. This gives user a simple revset to move to the previous changeset, e.g. `hg up '.~1'` but not to the 'next' changeset. With this change userse can now use `.~-1` as a shortcut to move to the next changeset. This fits better into allowing users to specify revisions via revsets and avoiding the need for special `hg next` and `hg prev` operations. The alternative to negative offsets is adding a new operator. We do not have many operators in ascii left that do not require bash escaping (',', '_', and '/' come to mind). If we decide that we should add a more convenient short operator such as ('/', e.g. './1') we can later add it and allow ascendents lookup via negative numbers.

update: show the commit to which we updated in case of multiple heads (BC) Currently when we have multiple heads on the same branch, update tells us that there some more heads for the current branch but does not tells us the head to which the repository has been updated to. It makes more sense showing the head we updated to and then telling there are some more heads.

revlog: skeleton support for version 2 revlogs There are a number of improvements we want to make to revlogs that will require a new version - version 2. It is unclear what the full set of improvements will be or when we'll be done with them. What I do know is that the process will likely take longer than a single release, will require input from various stakeholders to evaluate changes, and will have many contentious debates and bikeshedding. It is unrealistic to develop revlog version 2 up front: there are just too many uncertainties that we won't know until things are implemented and experiments are run. Some changes will also be invasive and prone to bit rot, so sitting on dozens of patches is not practical. This commit introduces skeleton support for version 2 revlogs in a way that is flexible and not bound by backwards compatibility concerns. An experimental repo requirement for denoting revlog v2 has been added. The requirement string has a sub-version component to it. This will allow us to declare multiple requirements in the course of developing revlog v2. Whenever we change the in-development revlog v2 format, we can tweak the string, creating a new requirement and locking out old clients. This will allow us to make as many backwards incompatible changes and experiments to revlog v2 as we want. In other words, we can land code and make meaningful progress towards revlog v2 while still maintaining extreme format flexibility up until the point we freeze the format and remove the experimental labels. To enable the new repo requirement, you must supply an experimental and undocumented config option. But not just any boolean flag will do: you need to explicitly use a value that no sane person should ever type. This is an additional guard against enabling revlog v2 on an installation it shouldn't be enabled on. The specific scenario I'm trying to prevent is say a user with a 4.4 client with a frozen format enabling the option but then downgrading to 4.3 and accidentally creating repos with an outdated and unsupported repo format. Requiring a "challenge" string should prevent this. Because the format is not yet finalized and I don't want to take any chances, revlog v2's version is currently 0xDEAD. I figure squatting on a value we're likely never to use as an actual revlog version to mean "internal testing only" is acceptable. And "dead" is easily recognized as something meaningful. There is a bunch of cleanup that is needed before work on revlog v2 begins in earnest. I plan on doing that work once this patch is accepted and we're comfortable with the idea of starting down this path.

check-code: ban grep's context flags (-A/-B/-C) since they're not on Solaris

patchbomb: avoid -r and -B options at the same time

debugbundle: add --part-type flag to emit only named part types This removes the need in the tests for grep -A, which is not supported on Solaris.

test-obsolete-bundle-strip: add globs for Windows

obsstore: move header encoding to a separate function This patch moves encodeheader from encodemarkers. So markers and header could be encoded separately.

obsstore: move _version to a propertycache This makes sure _version is correct even if "_all" is not called.

obsstore: separate marker parsing from obsstore reading This allows us to get raw obsstore content without parsing any markers. Reading obsstore is much cheaper than parsing markers.

obsstore: move marker version reading to a separate function This allows us to read marker version without reading markers.

obsstore: minor optimization for the obsolete revset Use local variables in a loop.
