repovfs: add a ward to check if locks are properly taken
When the appropriate developer warnings are enabled, We wrap 'repo.vfs.audit' to
check for locks when accessing file in '.hg' for writing. Another changeset will
add a 'ward' for the store vfs (svfs).
This check system has caught a handful of locking issues that have been fixed
in previous series (mostly in 4.0). I expect another batch to be caught in third
party extensions.
We introduce two real exceptions from extensions 'blackbox.log' (because a lot of
read-only operations add entry to it), and 'last-email.txt' (because 'hg email'
is currently a read only operation and there is value to keep it this way).
In addition we are currently allowing bisect to operate outside of the lock
because the current code is a bit hard to get properly locked for now. Multiple
clean up have been made but there is still a couple of them to do and the freeze
is coming.
Mercurial has the ability to add new features through the use of
extensions. Extensions may add new commands, add options to
existing commands, change the default behavior of commands, or
implement hooks.
To enable the "foo" extension, either shipped with Mercurial or in the
Python search path, create an entry for it in your configuration file,
like this::
[extensions]
foo =
You may also specify the full path to an extension::
[extensions]
myfeature = ~/.hgext/myfeature.py
See :hg:`help config` for more information on configuration files.
Extensions are not loaded by default for a variety of reasons:
they can increase startup overhead; they may be meant for advanced
usage only; they may provide potentially dangerous abilities (such
as letting you destroy or modify history); they might not be ready
for prime time; or they may alter some usual behaviors of stock
Mercurial. It is thus up to the user to activate extensions as
needed.
To explicitly disable an extension enabled in a configuration file of
broader scope, prepend its path with !::
[extensions]
# disabling extension bar residing in /path/to/extension/bar.py
bar = !/path/to/extension/bar.py
# ditto, but no path was supplied for extension baz
baz = !
