fncache: remove the rewriting logic The fncache could rewrite itself during a read operation if it noticed any entries that were no longer on disk. This was problematic because it caused Mercurial to perform write operations outside the scope of a lock or transaction, which could interefere with any other pending writes. This will be replaced in a future patch by logic that cleans up the fncache as files are deleted during strips.

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.
