copies: document hack for adding '' to set of dirs The root directory is not normally added to 'dirs' instances (although I think it should be). In copies.mergecopies, we call dirname() to get the directory of a path and then check for containment in the 'dirs' instances ('d1' and 'd2'). In order to easily handle files in the root directory, '/' is added to d1/d2. This results in the empty string being added to the sets, since what comes before the slash in '/' is an empty string. This seems less than obvious, so let's document it.

test-revset: update test that isn't broken on default branch "X or wdir()" just works because the default branch includes 40a2cf1c765b.

pathutil: demote two local functions to just be forwards We retain the forwards because it helps code be more ignorant of implementation details, but use forwards instead of our own method definitions since we don't need any truly custom behavior for now.

pathutil: restate dirname and join as forwards to posixpath I've done this as its own step so that it's easy to see that the posixpath implementations pass the doctests in this package. In a future patch I'll just make these pure forwards of the methods so that things using pathutil can be oblivious to the posix nature of these functions.

help: add documentation on include: and subinclude: Adds some help text about the new include: and subinclude: match syntax.

match: enable 'subinclude:' syntax This adds a new rule syntax that allows the user to include a pattern file, but only have those patterns match against files underneath the subdirectory of the pattern file. This is useful when you have nested projects in a repository and the inner projects wants to set up ignore rules that won't affect other projects in the repository. It is also useful in high commit rate repositories for removing the root .hgignore as a point of contention.

copies: switch to using pathutil.dirname copies had it's own dirname implementation. Now that pathutils has a common one, let's use that instead.

pathutil: add dirname and join functions This adds dirname and join functions to pathutil which are explicitly for handling '/' delimited paths. The implementations are basically copy paste from python's posix os.path.dirname and os.path.join functions.

changelog: move index_get_parents function up index_get_parents can be used in index_headrevs, to do so it needs to be moved up in the compilation unit.
