Matt Harbison <matt_harbison@yahoo.com> [Wed, 11 Jan 2017 22:42:10 -0500] rev 30782
revset: stop lowercasing the regex pattern for 'author' It was probably unintentional for regex, as the meaning of some sequences like \S and \s is actually inverted by changing the case. For backward compatibility however, the matching is forced to case insensitive.
Thu, 24 Nov 2016 18:45:29 -0800 repair: clean up stale lock file from store backup
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Thu, 24 Nov 2016 18:45:29 -0800] rev 30781
repair: clean up stale lock file from store backup Since we did a directory rename on the stores, the source repository's lock path now references the dest repository's lock path and the dest repository's lock path now references a non-existent filename. So releasing the lock on the source will unlock the dest and releasing the lock on the dest will no-op because it fails due to file not found. So we clean up the dest's lock manually.

repair: copy non-revlog store files during upgrade The store contains more than just revlogs. This patch teaches the upgrade code to copy regular files as well. As the test changes demonstrate, the phaseroots file is now copied.

Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Sun, 18 Dec 2016 17:00:15 -0800] rev 30779
repair: migrate revlogs during upgrade Our next step for in-place upgrade is to migrate store data. Revlogs are the biggest source of data within the store and a store is useless without them, so we implement their migration first. Our strategy for migrating revlogs is to walk the store and call `revlog.clone()` on each revlog. There are some minor complications. Because revlogs have different storage options (e.g. changelog has generaldelta and delta chains disabled), we need to obtain the correct class of revlog so inserted data is encoded properly for its type. Various attempts at implementing progress indicators that didn't lead to frustration from false "it's almost done" indicators were made. I initially used a single progress bar based on number of revlogs. However, this quickly churned through all filelogs, got to 99% then effectively froze at 99.99% when it got to the manifest. So I converted the progress bar to total revision count. This was a little bit better. But the manifest was still significantly slower than filelogs and it took forever to process the last few percent. I then tried both revision/chunk bytes and raw bytes as the denominator. This had the opposite effect: because so much data is in manifests, it would churn through filelogs without showing much progress. When it got to manifests, it would fill in 90+% of the progress bar. I finally gave up having a unified progress bar and instead implemented 3 progress bars: 1 for filelog revisions, 1 for manifest revisions, and 1 for changelog revisions. I added extra messages indicating the total number of revisions of each so users know there are more progress bars coming. I also added extra messages before and after each stage to give extra details about what is happening. Strictly speaking, this isn't necessary. But the numbers are impressive. For example, when converting a non-generaldelta mozilla-central repository, the messages you see are: migrating 2475593 total revisions (1833043 in filelogs, 321156 in manifests, 321394 in changelog) migrating 1.67 GB in store; 2508 GB tracked data migrating 267868 filelogs containing 1833043 revisions (1.09 GB in store; 57.3 GB tracked data) finished migrating 1833043 filelog revisions across 267868 filelogs; change in size: -415776 bytes migrating 1 manifests containing 321156 revisions (518 MB in store; 2451 GB tracked data) That "2508 GB" figure really blew me away. I had no clue that the raw tracked data in mozilla-central was that large. Granted, 2451 GB is in the manifest and "only" 57.3 GB is in filelogs. But still. It's worth noting that gratuitous loading of source revlogs in order to display numbers and progress bars does serve a purpose: it ensures we can open all source revlogs. We don't want to spend several minutes copying revlogs only to encounter a permissions error or similar later. As part of this commit, we also add swapping of the store directory to the upgrade function. After revlogs are converted, we move the old store into the backup directory then move the temporary repo's store into the old store's location. On well-behaved systems, this should be 2 atomic operations and the window of inconsistency show be very narrow. There are still a few improvements to be made to store copying and upgrading. But this commit gets the bulk of the work out of the way.
Sun, 18 Dec 2016 17:02:57 -0800 revlog: add clone method
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Sun, 18 Dec 2016 17:02:57 -0800] rev 30778
revlog: add clone method Upcoming patches will introduce functionality for in-place repository/store "upgrades." Copying the contents of a revlog feels sufficiently low-level to warrant being in the revlog class. So this commit implements that functionality. Because full delta recomputation can be *very* expensive (we're talking several hours on the Firefox repository), we support multiple modes of execution with regards to delta (re)use. This will allow repository upgrades to choose the "level" of processing/optimization they wish to perform when converting revlogs. It's not obvious from this commit, but "addrevisioncb" will be used for progress reporting.
Sun, 18 Dec 2016 16:59:04 -0800 repair: begin implementation of in-place upgrading
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Sun, 18 Dec 2016 16:59:04 -0800] rev 30777
repair: begin implementation of in-place upgrading Now that all the upgrade planning work is in place, we can start doing the real work: actually upgrading a repository. The main goal of this commit is to get the "framework" for running in-place upgrade actions in place. Rather than get too clever and low-level with regards to in-place upgrades, our strategy is to create a new, temporary repository, copy data to it, then replace the old data with the new. This allows us to reuse a lot of code in localrepo.py around store interaction, which will eventually consume the bulk of the upgrade code. But we have to start small. This patch implements adding new repository requirements. But it still sets up a temporary repository and locks it and the source repo before performing the requirements file swap. This means all the plumbing is in place to implement store copying in subsequent commits.
Sun, 18 Dec 2016 16:51:09 -0800 repair: determine what upgrade will do
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Sun, 18 Dec 2016 16:51:09 -0800] rev 30776
repair: determine what upgrade will do This commit introduces code for determining what actions/improvements an upgrade should perform. The "upgradefindimprovements" function introduces a mechanism to return a list of improvements that can be made to a repository. Each improvement is effectively an action that an upgrade will perform. Associated with each of these improvements is metadata that will be used to inform users what's wrong and what an upgrade will do. Each "improvement" is categorized as a "deficiency" or an "optimization." TBH, I'm not thrilled about the terminology and am receptive to constructive bikeshedding. The main difference between a "deficiency" and an "optimization" is a deficiency is always corrected (if it deviates from the current config) and an "optimization" is an optional action that goes above and beyond to improve the state of the repository (usually by requiring more CPU during upgrade). Our initial set of improvements identifies missing repository requirements, a single, easily correctable problem with changelog storage, and a set of "optimizations" related to delta recalculation. The main "upgraderepo" function has been expanded to handle improvements. It queries for the list of improvements and determines which of them will run based on the current repository state and user I went through numerous iterations of the output format before settling on a ReST-inspired definition list format. (I used bulleted lists in the first submission of this commit and could not get it to format just right.) Even with the various iterations, I'm still not super thrilled with the format. But, this is a debug* command, so that should mean we can refine the output without BC concerns.
Sun, 18 Dec 2016 16:16:54 -0800 repair: implement requirements checking for upgrades
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Sun, 18 Dec 2016 16:16:54 -0800] rev 30775
repair: implement requirements checking for upgrades This commit introduces functionality for upgrading a repository in place. The first part that's implemented is testing for upgrade "compatibility." This is done by examining repository requirements. There are 5 functions returning sets of requirements that control upgrading. Why so many functions? Mainly to support extensions. Functions are easier to monkeypatch than module variables. Astute readers will see that we don't support "manifestv2" and "treemanifest" requirements in the upgrade mechanism. I don't have a great answer for why other than this is a complex set of patches and I don't want to deal with the complexity of these experimental features just yet. We can teach the upgrade mechanism about them later, once the basic upgrade mechanism is in place. This commit also introduces the "upgraderepo" function. This will be our main routine for performing an in-place upgrade. Currently, it just implements requirements checking. The structure of some code in this function may look a bit weird (e.g. the inline function that is only called once). But this will make sense after future commits.
Thu, 24 Nov 2016 16:24:09 -0800 debugcommands: stub for debugupgraderepo command
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Thu, 24 Nov 2016 16:24:09 -0800] rev 30774
debugcommands: stub for debugupgraderepo command Currently, if Mercurial introduces a new repository/store feature or changes behavior of an existing feature, users must perform an `hg clone` to create a new repository with hopefully the correct/optimal settings. Unfortunately, even `hg clone` may not give the correct results. For example, if you do a local `hg clone`, you may get hardlinks to revlog files that inherit the old state. If you `hg clone` from a remote or `hg clone --pull`, changegroup application may bypass some optimization, such as converting to generaldelta. Optimizing a repository is harder than it seems and requires more than a simple `hg` command invocation. This commit starts the process of changing that. We introduce `hg debugupgraderepo`, a command that performs an in-place upgrade of a repository to use new, optimal features. The command is just a stub right now. Features will be added in subsequent commits. This commit does foreshadow some of the behavior of the new command, notably that it doesn't do anything by default and that it takes arguments that influence what actions it performs. These will be explained more in subsequent commits.
Wed, 11 Jan 2017 21:47:19 -0500 util: teach stringmatcher to handle forced case insensitive matches
Matt Harbison <matt_harbison@yahoo.com> [Wed, 11 Jan 2017 21:47:19 -0500] rev 30773
util: teach stringmatcher to handle forced case insensitive matches The 'author' and 'desc' revsets are documented to be case insensitive. Unfortunately, this was implemented in 'author' by forcing the input to lowercase, including for regex like '\B'. (This actually inverts the meaning of the sequence.) For backward compatibility, we will keep that a case insensitive regex, but by using matcher options instead of brute force. This doesn't preclude future hypothetical 'icase-literal:' style prefixes that can be provided by the user. Such user specified cases can probably be handled up front by stripping 'icase-', setting the variable, and letting it drop through the existing code.
