lfs: add a local store method for opening a blob
The has() and read() methods already dynamically switch between the usercache
and local store. This should generally be preferred to directly accessing the
vfs instances outside of the store.
The file is now explicitly opened in binary mode for clarity. (It was also
being opened in binary mode before, but only because vfs.__call__() appends 'b'
if needed when not opening with 'text=True'.)
Initial setup.
$ hg init repo
$ cd repo
$ touch thefile
$ hg ci -A -m 'Initial commit.'
adding thefile
Create a tag.
$ hg tag branchortag
Create a branch with the same name as the tag.
$ hg branch branchortag
marked working directory as branch branchortag
(branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
$ hg ci -m 'Create a branch with the same name as a tag.'
This is what we have:
