merge: skip syntactic path checks in [_checkunknownfile]
We don't need to check the paths syntactically, since they are coming from
diffing the revisions, so hopefully already checked on the way in.
We still need to check what's on the filesystem, to avoid traversing the
symlinks or subdirs, which we can't know about statically.
Also, we use the directory audit to elide [isfileorlink],
this removing ~all lstat calls from hg updates from-empty.
Setup:
$ cat > eval.py <<EOF
> import filecmp
> from mercurial import commands, context, pycompat, registrar
> cmdtable = {}
> command = registrar.command(cmdtable)
> @command(b'eval', [], b'hg eval CMD')
> def eval_(ui, repo, *cmds, **opts):
> cmd = b" ".join(cmds)
> res = pycompat.bytestr(eval(cmd, globals(), locals()))
> ui.warn(b"%s" % res)
> EOF
$ echo "[extensions]" >> $HGRCPATH
$ echo "eval=`pwd`/eval.py" >> $HGRCPATH
Arbitraryfilectx.cmp does not follow symlinks:
$ mkdir case1
$ cd case1
$ hg init
#if symlink
$ printf "A" > real_A
$ printf "foo" > A
$ printf "foo" > B
$ ln -s A sym_A
$ hg add .
adding A
adding B
adding real_A
adding sym_A
$ hg commit -m "base"
#else
$ hg import -q --bypass - <<EOF

These files are different and should return True (different):
(Note that filecmp.cmp's return semantics are inverted from ours, so we invert
for simplicity):
$ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx(b'A', repo).cmp(repo[None][b'real_A'])"
True (no-eol)
$ hg eval "not filecmp.cmp(b'A', b'real_A')"
True (no-eol)
These files are identical and should return False (same):
$ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx(b'A', repo).cmp(repo[None][b'A'])"
False (no-eol)
$ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx(b'A', repo).cmp(repo[None][b'B'])"
False (no-eol)
$ hg eval "not filecmp.cmp(b'A', b'B')"
False (no-eol)
This comparison should also return False, since A and sym_A are substantially
the same in the eyes of ``filectx.cmp``, which looks at data only.
$ hg eval "context.arbitraryfilectx(b'real_A', repo).cmp(repo[None][b'sym_A'])"
False (no-eol)
A naive use of filecmp on those two would wrongly return True, since it follows
the symlink to "A", which has different contents.
#if symlink
$ hg eval "not filecmp.cmp(b'real_A', b'sym_A')"
True (no-eol)
#else
$ hg eval "not filecmp.cmp(b'real_A', b'sym_A')"
False (no-eol)
#endif
