narrow: fix flaky behavior described in issue6150 This has been plaguing the CI for a good while, and it doesn't appear to have an easy fix proposed yet. The solution in this change is to always do an unambiguous (but expensive) lookup in case of comparison. This should always be correct, albeit suboptimal.

patch: make diff --git to differentiate b/w file is empty or doesn't exists Before this patch, as we didn't differentiate the two cases of a file in a context: 1. File doesn't exists 2. File is empty which causes the blob id to be same for both the cases. Now we use `nullhex` for a file which doesn't exists in a context (aligning it with the git diff format) Changes in test file reflect the fixed behavior.

tests: add a test to demonstrate a bug in `hg diff --git` (issue6486) Issue url: https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6486 This will be fixed in next patch. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10000

helptext: fix a recent typo Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10033

re2: byteify some regex used to get check re2 availability Changeset 687b865b95ad failed to properly byteify this because it was a raw string. This went undetected so far because re2 does not seems to be widely tested. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10064

hooks: add a `auto` value for `hooks.*run-with-plain` That setting restore the behavior pre-5.6. The current HGPLAIN value is simply passed to the hooks. This allow user who needs it to fully mitigate the behavior change introduced in Mercurial 5.7 by restoring the older behavior. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9982

hooks: introduce a `:run-with-plain` option for hooks This option control if HGPLAIN should be set or not for the hooks. This is the first step to give user some control of the HGPLAIN setting for they hooks. Some hooks (eg: consistency checking) deserve to be run with HGPLAIN, some other (eg: user set visual helper) might need to respect the user config and setting. So both usage are valid and we need to restore the ability to run -without- HGPLAIN that got lost in Mercurial 5.7. This does not offer a way to restore the pre-5.7 behavior yet (respect whatever HGPLAIN setting from the shell), this will be dealt with in the next changeset. The option name is a bit verbose because implementing this highlighs the need for another option: `:run-if-plain`. That would make it possible for some hooks to be easily disabled if HG PLAIN is set. However such option would be a new feature, not something introduced to mitigate a behavior change introduced in 5.7, so the `:run-if-plain` option belong to the default branch and is not part of this series.

hooks: add some test about HGPLAIN setting and hooks In Mercurial 5.7, hooks are now ran with HGPLAIN set, which is a behavior change in. I could not find explicit test about it so I am adding one. The next changesets will introduce more change to help user mitigate the behavior change when needed. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9979

hooks: forbid ':' in hook name The `:` character is a special separator in the config and it seems same do to the same for hooks. This is necessary to improve the experience around the HGPLAIN behavior change in 5.7. See next changesets for details. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9978
