dirstate.walk: don't keep track of normalized files in parallel
Rev 2bb13f2b778c changed the semantics of the work list to store (normalized,
non-normalized) pairs. All the tuple creation and destruction hurts perf: on a
large repo on OS X, 'hg status' went from 3.62 seconds to 3.78.
It also is unnecessary in most cases:
- it is clearly unnecessary on case-sensitive filesystems.
- it is also unnecessary when filenames have been read off of disk rather than
being supplied by the user.
The only case where the non-normalized case is required at all is when the file
is unknown.
To eliminate most of the perf cost, keep trace of whether the directory needs
to be normalized at all with a boolean called 'alreadynormed'. Pay the cost of
directory normalization only when necessary.
For the above large repo, 'hg status' goes to 3.63 seconds.
Mercurial supports a functional language for selecting a set of
revisions.
The language supports a number of predicates which are joined by infix
operators. Parenthesis can be used for grouping.
Identifiers such as branch names may need quoting with single or
double quotes if they contain characters like ``-`` or if they match
one of the predefined predicates.
Special characters can be used in quoted identifiers by escaping them,
e.g., ``\n`` is interpreted as a newline. To prevent them from being
interpreted, strings can be prefixed with ``r``, e.g. ``r'...'``.
There is a single prefix operator:
``not x``
Changesets not in x. Short form is ``! x``.
These are the supported infix operators:
``x::y``
A DAG range, meaning all changesets that are descendants of x and
ancestors of y, including x and y themselves. If the first endpoint
is left out, this is equivalent to ``ancestors(y)``, if the second
is left out it is equivalent to ``descendants(x)``.
An alternative syntax is ``x..y``.
``x:y``
All changesets with revision numbers between x and y, both
inclusive. Either endpoint can be left out, they default to 0 and
tip.
``x and y``
The intersection of changesets in x and y. Short form is ``x & y``.
``x or y``
The union of changesets in x and y. There are two alternative short
forms: ``x | y`` and ``x + y``.
``x - y``
Changesets in x but not in y.
``x^n``
The nth parent of x, n == 0, 1, or 2.
For n == 0, x; for n == 1, the first parent of each changeset in x;
for n == 2, the second parent of changeset in x.
``x~n``
The nth first ancestor of x; ``x~0`` is x; ``x~3`` is ``x^^^``.
There is a single postfix operator:
``x^``
Equivalent to ``x^1``, the first parent of each changeset in x.
The following predicates are supported:
.. predicatesmarker
New predicates (known as "aliases") can be defined, using any combination of
existing predicates or other aliases. An alias definition looks like::
<alias> = <definition>
in the ``revsetalias`` section of a Mercurial configuration file. Arguments
of the form `$1`, `$2`, etc. are substituted from the alias into the
definition.
For example,
::
[revsetalias]
h = heads()
d($1) = sort($1, date)
rs($1, $2) = reverse(sort($1, $2))
defines three aliases, ``h``, ``d``, and ``rs``. ``rs(0:tip, author)`` is
exactly equivalent to ``reverse(sort(0:tip, author))``.
An infix operator ``##`` can concatenate strings and identifiers into
one string. For example::
[revsetalias]
issue($1) = grep(r'\bissue[ :]?' ## $1 ## r'\b|\bbug\(' ## $1 ## r'\)')
``issue(1234)`` is equivalent to ``grep(r'\bissue[ :]?1234\b|\bbug\(1234\)')``
in this case. This matches against all of "issue 1234", "issue:1234",
"issue1234" and "bug(1234)".
All other prefix, infix and postfix operators have lower priority than
``##``. For example, ``$1 ## $2~2`` is equivalent to ``($1 ## $2)~2``.
Command line equivalents for :hg:`log`::
-f -> ::.
-d x -> date(x)
-k x -> keyword(x)
-m -> merge()
-u x -> user(x)
-b x -> branch(x)
-P x -> !::x
-l x -> limit(expr, x)
Some sample queries:
- Changesets on the default branch::
hg log -r "branch(default)"
- Changesets on the default branch since tag 1.5 (excluding merges)::
hg log -r "branch(default) and 1.5:: and not merge()"
- Open branch heads::
hg log -r "head() and not closed()"
- Changesets between tags 1.3 and 1.5 mentioning "bug" that affect
``hgext/*``::
hg log -r "1.3::1.5 and keyword(bug) and file('hgext/*')"
- Changesets committed in May 2008, sorted by user::
hg log -r "sort(date('May 2008'), user)"
- Changesets mentioning "bug" or "issue" that are not in a tagged
release::
hg log -r "(keyword(bug) or keyword(issue)) and not ancestors(tag())"
