status: add relative directory help text (issue3835) Previously, it was difficult to find out how to display the status of files relative to your current working directory. This patch adds that knowledge to the help text.

diff: rename --relative option to --root The diff output format is unable to express files outside the directory so it makes sense to name this option --root instead of --relative.

revlog: make converting from inline to non-line work after a strip The checkinlinesize function, which converts inline revlogs to non-inline, uses the current transaction's "data" field to determine how to update the transaction after the conversion. This change works around the missing data field, which is not in the transaction after a strip.

check-code: in C code, prevent space before closing parenthesis

match: remove unused assignment of ctx ctx is consumed in __init__ to build match patterns and never used after that.

revert: comment that filesets are always evaluated against workingctx

revert: take fast path also when not reverting to '.' This speeds up 'hg revert -r .^ --all --dry-run' on the Mozilla repo from 4.081s to 0.826s. Note that 'hg revert -r .^ .' does not get any faster, since '.' does not make match.always() True. I can't think of a reason it would break anything, and if it does, it's clearly not covered by tests.

revert: define 'wctx' a little earlier and use it more

match: add isexact() method to hide internals Comparing a function reference seems bad.

matcher: make e.g. 'relpath:.' lead to fast paths Several commands take the fast path when match.always() is true. However, when the user passes "." on the command line, that results in a matcher for which match.always() == False. Let's make it so such matchers return True, and have an empty list of .files(). This makes e.g. "hg log ." as fast as "hg log" and "hg revert ." as fast as "hg revert --all" (when run from repo root).
