[states] make disabling state saftier

It is not allowed to disable a state that is not empty
because "Explicit is better than implicit".

'''introduce the state concept for mercurial changeset

(see http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/StatesPlan)

General concept
===============

This extension adds the state concept. A changeset are now in a specific state
that control they mutability and they exchange.

States properties
.................

The states extension currently alter two property for changeset

:mutability:  history rewritten tool should refuse to work on immutable changeset
:sharing:     shared changeset are exchanged during pull and push. other are not

Here is a small summary of the current property of state existing state::

    ||           || mutable || shared ||
    || published ||         ||   x    ||
    || ready     ||    x    ||   x    ||
    || draft     ||    x    ||        ||

States consistency and ordering
...............................

States of changesets have to be consistent with each other. A changeset can only have ancestors of it's state (or a compatible states)

Example:

    A ``published`` changeset can't have a ``draft`` parent.

a state is compatible with itself and all "smaller" states. Order is as follow::

    published < ready < draft


.. note:

    This section if probably far too conceptual for people. The result is just
    that: A ``published`` changeset can only have ``published`` ancestors. A
    ``ready`` changeset can only have ``published`` or ``ready`` ancestors.

    Moreover There is a need for a nice word to refer to "a state smaller than another"


States details
==============


published
    Changesets in the ``published`` state are the core of the history.  They are
    changesets that you published to the world. People can expect them to always
    exist. They are changesets as you know them. **By default all changesets
    are published**

    - They are exchanged with other repositories (included in pull//push).

    - They are not mutable, extensions rewriting history should refuse to
      rewrite them.

ready
    Changesets in the ``ready`` state have not yet been accepted in the
    immutable history. You can share them with others for review, testing or
    improvement. Any ``ready`` changeset can either be included in the
    published history (and become immutable) or be rewritten and never make it
    to the published history.

    - They are exchanged with other repositories (included in pull//push).

    - They are mutable, extensions rewriting history accept to work on them.

draft

    Changesets in the ``draft`` state are heavy work in progress you are not
    yet willing to share with others.

    - They are not exchanged with other repositories. pull//push do not see them.
    - They are mutable, extensions rewriting history accept to work on them.

--

.. note:

    The Dead states mentionned in on the wiki page are missing. There is two main reason for it:

    1. The ``dead`` state has a different behaviour that requires more work to be
       implemented.

    2. I believe that the use cases of ``dead changeset`` are better covered by
       the ``obsolete`` extension.

--

.. note:

    I'm tempted to add a state with the same property that ``ready`` for review
    workflow.::

        ||           || mutable || shared ||
        || published ||         ||   x    ||
        || ready     ||    x    ||   x    ||
        || inprogress||    x    ||   x    ||
        || draft     ||    x    ||        ||

    The ``ready`` state would be for changeset that wait review of someone that
    can "publish" them.



Current Feature and usage
=========================


Enabling states
...............

The extension adds a :hg:`hg states` command to display and choose which states
are used by a repository, see :hg:`hg states` for details.

By default all changesets in the repository are ``published``. Other states
must be explicitly activated. Changeset in a remote repository that doesn't
support states are all seen as ``published``.

.. note:

    When a state is not activated, changesets in this state are handled as
    changesets of the previous state it (``draft`` are handled as ``ready``,
    ``ready`` are handled as ``published``).

TODO:

- have a configuration in hgrc::

    [states]
    ready=(off|on)(-inherit)?
    <state>=(off|on)(-inherit)?

 :off:     state disabled for new repo
 :on:      state enabled  for new repo
 :inherit: if present, inherit states of source on :hg:`clone`.

-  have a switch to select if changesets do change state on state activation.

- display the number of changesets that change state when activating a state.



State transition
................

Changeset you create locally will be in the ``draft`` state. (or any previous
state if draft isn't enabled)

There is some situation where the state of a changeset will change
automatically. Automatic movement always go in the same direction.: ``draft ->
``ready`` -> ``published``

1. When you pull or push boundary move. Common changeset that are ``published`` in
one of the two repository are set to ``published``. Same goes for ``ready`` etc
(states are evaluated from in increasing order XXX I bet no one understand this
parenthesis. Pull operation alter the local repository. push alter both local
and remote repository.

.. note:

    As Repository without any specific state have all their changeset
    ``published``, Pushing to such repo will ``publish`` all common changeset.

2. Tagged changeset get automatically Published. The tagging changeset is
tagged too... This doesn't apply to local tag.


You can also manually change changeset state with a dedicated command for each
state. See :hg:`published`, :hg:`ready` and :hg:`draft` for details.

XXX maybe we can details the general behaviour here

:hg <state> revs:                 move boundary of state so it includes revs
                                  ( revs included in ::<state>heads())
:hg --exact <state> revs:         move boundary so that revs are exactly in state
                                  <state> ( all([rev.state == <state> for rev in
                                  revs]))
:hg --exact --force <state> revs: move boundary event if it create inconsistency
                                  (with tag for example)

TODO:

- implement consistency check

- implement --force


Existing command change
.......................

As said in the previous section:

:commit:    Create draft changeset (or the first enabled previous changeset).
:tag:       Move tagged and tagging changeset in the ``published`` state.
:incoming:  Exclude ``draft`` changeset of remote repository.
:outgoing:  Exclude ``draft`` changeset of local repository.
:pull:      As :hg:`in`  + change state of local changeset according to remote side.
:push:      As :hg:`out` + sync state of common changeset on both side
:rollback:  rollback restore states heads as before the last transaction (see bookmark)

State Transition control
.........................

There is currently no way to control who can alter boundary (The most notable
usecase is about the published one).

This is probably needed quickly

XXX TODO: Proper behaviour when heads file are chmoded whould be a first step.

XXX We are going to need hooks (pre and post) hook on state transition too.

Template
........

A new template keyword ``{state}`` has been added.

Revset
......

We add new ``readyheads()`` and ``publishedheads()`` revset directives. This
returns the heads of each state **as if all of them were activated**.

XXX TODO - I would like to

- move the current ``<state>heads()`` directives to
  _``<state>heads()``

- add ``<state>heads()`` directives to that return the currently in used heads

- add ``<state>()`` directives that match all node in a state.

Context
.......

The ``context`` class gain a new method  ``states()`` that return a ``state`` object. The
most notable property of this states object are ```name`` and ``mutable``.

Other extensions
................

:rebase:     can't rebase immutable changeset.
:mq:         can't qimport immutable changeset.

TODO: publishing a changeset should qfinish mq patches.



Implementation
==============

State definition
................

Conceptually:

The set of node in the states are defined by the set of the state heads. This allow
easy storage, exchange and consistency.

.. note: A cache of the complete set of node that belong to a states will
         probably be need for performance.

Code wise:

There is a ``state`` class that hold the state property and several useful
logic (name, revset entry etc).

All defined states are accessible thought the STATES tuple at the ROOT of the
module. Or the STATESMAP dictionary that allow to fetch a state from it's
name.

You can get and edit the list head node that define a state with two methods on
repo.

:stateheads(<state>):        Returns the list of heads node that define a states
:setstate(<state>, [nodes]): Move states boundary forward to include the given
                             nodes in the given states.

Those methods handle ``node`` and not rev as it seems more resilient to me that
rev in a mutable world. Maybe it' would make more sens to have ``node`` store
on disk but revision in the code.

Storage
.......

States related data are stored in the ``.hg/states/`` directory.

The ``.hg/states/Enabled`` file list the states enabled in this
repository. This data is *not* stored in the .hg/hgrc because the .hg/hgrc
might be ignored for trust reason. As missing und with states can be pretty
annoying. (publishing unfinalized changeset, pulling draft one etc) we don't
want trust issue to interfer with enabled states information.

``.hg/states/<state>-heads`` file list the nodes that define a states.

_NOSHARE filtering
..................

Any changeset in a state with a _NOSHARE property will be exclude from pull,
push, clone, incoming, outgoing and bundle. It is done through three mechanism:

1. Wrapping the findcommonincoming and findcommonoutgoing code with (not very
   efficient) logic that recompute the exchanged heads.

2. Altering ``heads`` wireprotocol command to return sharead heads.

3. Disabling hardlink cloning when there is _NOSHARE changeset available.

Internal plumbery
-----------------

sum up of what we do:

* state are object

* repo.__class__ is extended

* discovery is wrapped up

* wire protocol is patched

* transaction and rollback mechanism are wrapped up.

* XXX we write new version of the boundard whenever something happen. We need a
  smarter and faster way to do this.
