relnotes: add 6.4.1

sslutil: set context security level for legacy tls testing (issue6760) Current versions of OpenSSL do not allow the use of TLS <1.2 when the library's security level is >=1 (1 being the default on most distributions). Setting the security level in addition to the minimum protocol is therefore necessary for the legacy protocol tests. This is done here ONLY when testing, when: - explicitly setting the cipher string, or - using the "--insecure" flag, or - using the "devel.serverexactprotocol" testing option. See: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/NEWS.md#major-changes-between-openssl-30-and-openssl-310-14-mar-2023

configitems: make devel.serverexactprotocol look dangerous Because it is.

rebase: do not cleanup the working copy when --dry-run is used (issue6802) Since we did not touch the working copy, we don't need to clean it up. This will avoid wiping exiting changes out.

rebase: add a test showing that --dry-run wipes working copy changes Eating people's data on --dry-run seems like a bad idea.

tests: automatically glob the discovery timing information Time is not stable in tests.

rhg: support `status --print0` This seems very easy to support, and useful because it makes it possible to parse the [hg status] output even if the user creates files with '\n' characters by accident.

stabletailgraph: implement stable-tail sort This adds the computation of the "stable-tail sort", an incremental node sorting method. It is a stepping stone for the implementation of faster label discovery (for example for obs markers) and more caching.

heptapod: add `.gitattributes` file to improve language detection I am fully aware of the irony.

match: match explicit file using a set The matcher as all the logic to do quick comparison against explicit patterns, however the pattern matcher was shadowing the code using that set and used the compiled regex pattern in all cases, which is quite slow. We restore the usage of the set based matching to boost performance. Building the regexp is still consuming a large amount of time (actually, the majority of the time), which is still silly. Maybe using re2 would help that, but this is a quest for another adventure. Another path to improve this is to have a pattern type dedicated to match the exact path to a file only (not a directory). This pattern could use the set matching only and be skipped in the regex all together. Benchmarks ========== In the following benchmark we are comparing the `hg cat` and `hg files` run time when matching against all files in the repository. They are run: - without the rust extensions - with the standard python engine (so without re2) Performance improvement in this series -------------------------------------- ###### hg files ############################################################### ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 0.230092 seconds prev-changeset: 0.230069 seconds this-changeset: 0.211425 seconds (-8.36%) ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 0.234235 seconds prev-changeset: 0.231165 seconds (-1.38%) this-changeset: 0.212300 seconds (-9.43%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 0.613567 seconds prev-changeset: 0.616799 seconds this-changeset: 0.510852 seconds (-16.82%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 0.801880 seconds prev-changeset: 0.616393 seconds (-23.22%) this-changeset: 0.511903 seconds (-36.23%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 21.541828 seconds prev-changeset: 21.586773 seconds this-changeset: 13.648347 seconds (-36.76%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 172.759857 seconds prev-changeset: 21.908197 seconds (-87.32%) this-changeset: 13.945110 seconds (-91.93%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 62.474221 seconds prev-changeset: 61.279490 seconds (-1.22%) this-changeset: 29.529469 seconds (-52.40%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 1364.180218 seconds prev-changeset: 62.473549 seconds (-95.40%) this-changeset: 30.625249 seconds (-97.75%) ###### hg cat ################################################################# ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 0.764407 seconds prev-changeset: 0.763883 seconds this-changeset: 0.737326 seconds (-3.68%) ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 0.768924 seconds prev-changeset: 0.765848 seconds this-changeset: 0.174d0b seconds (-4.44%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 2.065220 seconds prev-changeset: 2.070498 seconds this-changeset: 1.939482 seconds (-6.08%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 2.276388 seconds prev-changeset: 2.069197 seconds (-9.15%) this-changeset: 1.931746 seconds (-15.19%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 40.967983 seconds prev-changeset: 41.392423 seconds this-changeset: 32.181681 seconds (-22.20%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 216.388709 seconds prev-changeset: 41.648689 seconds (-80.88%) this-changeset: 32.580817 seconds (-85.04%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### sorted base-changeset: 105.228510 seconds prev-changeset: 103.315670 seconds (-1.23%) this-changeset: 69.416118 seconds (-33.64%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog ### shuffled base-changeset: 1448.722784 seconds prev-changeset: 104.369358 seconds (-92.80%) this-changeset: 70.554789 seconds (-95.13%) Different way to list the same data with this revision ------------------------------------------------------ ###### hg files ############################################################### ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog root: 0.119182 seconds glob: 0.120697 seconds (+1.27%) sorted: 0.211425 seconds (+77.40%) shuffled: 0.212300 seconds (+78.13%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog root: 0.121986 seconds glob: 0.124822 seconds (+2.32%) sorted: 0.510852 seconds (+318.78%) shuffled: 0.511903 seconds (+319.64%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog root: 0.173984 seconds glob: 0.227203 seconds (+30.59%) sorted: 13.648347 seconds (+7744.59%) shuffled: 13.945110 seconds (+7915.16%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog root: 0.366463 seconds glob: 0.491030 seconds (+33.99%) sorted: 29.529469 seconds (+7957.96%) shuffled: 30.625249 seconds (+8256.97%) ###### hg cat ################################################################# ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog glob: 0.647471 seconds root: 0.643120 seconds shuffled: 0.174d0b seconds (+13.92%) sorted: 0.737326 seconds (+13.88%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog glob: 40.596983 seconds root: 40.129136 seconds shuffled: 70.554789 seconds (+73.79%) sorted: 69.416118 seconds (+70.99%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog glob: 18.777924 seconds root: 18.613905 seconds shuffled: 32.580817 seconds (+73.51%) sorted: 32.181681 seconds (+71.38%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog glob: 1.555319 seconds root: 1.536534 seconds shuffled: 1.931746 seconds (+24.20%) sorted: 1.939482 seconds (+24.70%)
