largefiles: don't walk through all ignored files Problem: 'hg status' with largefiles enabled would walk through all the files that .hgignore said should be ignored. That made it slow if a lot of files were .hgignored or the cache was cold. It seems like there was a reason to this, but other improvements has rendered this unnecessary. Solution: .hgignore is now only ignored when that is requested (--ignore). This is a minimal 'stable' change. There is room for other improvement.

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.
