revset: improve head revset performance Previously the head() revset would iterate over every item in the subset and check if it was a head. Since the subset is often the entire repo, this was slow on large repos. Now we iterate over each item in the head list and check if it's in the subset, which results in much less work. hg log -r 'head()' on a large repo: Before: 0.95s After: 0.28s

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
