changegroup: skip delta when the underlying revlog do not use them Revlog can now be configured to store full snapshot only. This is used on the changelog. However, the changegroup packing was still recomputing deltas to be sent over the wire. We now just reuse the full snapshot directly in this case, skipping delta computation. This provides use with a large speed up(-30%): # perfchangegroupchangelog on mercurial ! wall 2.010326 comb 2.020000 user 2.000000 sys 0.020000 (best of 5) ! wall 1.382039 comb 1.380000 user 1.370000 sys 0.010000 (best of 8) # perfchangegroupchangelog on pypy ! wall 5.792589 comb 5.780000 user 5.780000 sys 0.000000 (best of 3) ! wall 3.911158 comb 3.920000 user 3.900000 sys 0.020000 (best of 3) # perfchangegroupchangelog on mozilla central ! wall 20.683727 comb 20.680000 user 20.630000 sys 0.050000 (best of 3) ! wall 14.190204 comb 14.190000 user 14.150000 sys 0.040000 (best of 3) Many tests have to be updated because of the change in bundle content. All theses update have been verified. Because diffing changelog was not very valuable, the resulting bundle have similar size (often a bit smaller): # full bundle of mozilla central with delta: 1142740533B without delta: 1142173300B So this is a win all over the board.

revlog: make 'storedeltachains' a "public" attribute The next changeset will make that attribute read by the changegroup packer. We make it "public" beforehand.

manifest: don't store None in fulltextcache When we read a value from fulltextcache, we expect it to be an array, so we should not store None in it. Found while working on narrowhg.

copies: improve assertions during copy recombination - Make sure there is nothing to recombine in non-graftlike scenarios - More pythonic assert syntax

treemanifest: fix bad argument order to treemanifestctx Found by running tests with _treeinmem (both of them) modified to be True.

wireproto: compress data from a generator Currently, the "getbundle" wire protocol command obtains a generator of data, converts it to a util.chunkbuffer, then converts it back to a generator via the protocol's groupchunks() implementation. For the SSH protocol, groupchunks() simply reads 4kb chunks then write()s the data to a file descriptor. For the HTTP protocol, groupchunks() reads 32kb chunks, feeds those into a zlib compressor, emits compressed data as it is available, and that is sent to the WSGI layer, where it is likely turned into HTTP chunked transfer chunks as is or further buffered and turned into a larger chunk. For both the SSH and HTTP protocols, there is inefficiency from using util.chunkbuffer. For SSH, emitting consistent 4kb chunks sounds nice. However, the file descriptor it is writing to is almost certainly buffered. That means that a Python .write() probably doesn't translate into exactly what is written to the I/O layer. For HTTP, we're going through an intermediate layer to zlib compress data. So all util.chunkbuffer is doing is ensuring that the chunks we feed into the zlib compressor are of uniform size. This means more CPU time in Python buffering and emitting chunks in util.chunkbuffer but fewer function calls to zlib. This patch introduces and implements a new wire protocol abstract method: compresschunks(). It is like groupchunks() except it operates on a generator instead of something with a .read(). The SSH implementation simply proxies chunks. The HTTP implementation uses zlib compression. To avoid duplicate code, the HTTP groupchunks() has been reimplemented in terms of compresschunks(). To prove this all works, the "getbundle" wire protocol command has been switched to compresschunks(). This removes the util.chunkbuffer from that command. Now, data essentially streams straight from the changegroup emitter to the wire, possibly through a zlib compressor. Generators all the way, baby. There were slim to no performance changes on the server as measured with the mozilla-central repository. This is likely because CPU time is dominated by reading revlogs, producing the changegroup, and zlib compressing the output stream. Still, this brings us a little closer to our ideal of using generators everywhere.

revset: optimize for destination() being "inefficient" destination() will scan through the whole subset and read extras for each revision to get its source.

copies: make _checkcopies handle copy sequences spanning the TCA (issue4028) When working in a rotated DAG (for a graftlike merge), there can be files that are renamed both between the base and the topological CA, and between the TCA and the endpoint farther from the base. Such renames span the TCA (and thus need both passes of _checkcopies to be fully detected), but may not necessarily be divergent. Make _checkcopies return "incomplete copies" and "incomplete divergences" in this case, and let mergecopies recombine them once data from both passes of _checkcopies is available. With this patch, all known cases involving renames and grafts pass. (Developed together with Pierre-Yves David)

checkcopies: add logic to handle remotebase As the two _checkcopies passes' ranges are separated by tca, not base, only one of the two passes will actually encounter the base. Pass "remotebase" to the other pass to let it know not to expect passing over the base. This is required for handling a few unusual rename cases.

mergecopies: add logic to process incomplete data We first combine incomplete copies on the two sides of the topological CA into complete copies. Any leftover incomplete copies are then combined with the incomplete divergences to reconstruct divergences spanning over the topological CA. Finally we promote any divergences falsely flagged as incomplete to full divergences. Right now, there is nothing generating incomplete copy/divergence data, so this code does nothing. Changes to _checkcopies to populate these dicts are coming later in this series.
