branchmap: store branchcache in a dedicated object
Value and key of branchcache would benefit from being hold by the same object.
Moreover some logic (update, write, validation) could be move on such object.
The creation of this object is the first step toward this move. The result will
clarify branchcache related code and hide most of the detail in the class
itself. This encapsulation will greatly helps implementation of branchcache for
filtered view of the repo.
Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:
http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html
It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:
http://docutils.sourceforge.net/
Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
