performance: disable workaround for an old bug of Python gc Since disabling the gc does things worse for pypy and the bug was fixed in 2.7, let's only enable it in <2.7

merge: always use other, not remote, in user prompts Now that we store and display merge labels in user prompts (not just conflict markets), we should rely on labels to clarify the two sides of a merge operation (hg merge, hg update, hg rebase etc). "remote" is not a great name here, as it conflates "remote" as in "remote server" with "remote" as in "the side of the merge that's further away". In cases where you're merging the "wrong way" around, remote can even be the "local" commit that you're merging with something pulled from the remote server.

merge: use labels in prompts to the user Now that we persist the labels, we can consistently use the labels in prompts for the user without risk of confusion. This changes a huge amount of command output: This means that merge prompts like: no tool found to merge a keep (l)ocal, take (o)ther, or leave (u)nresolved? u and remote changed a which local deleted use (c)hanged version, leave (d)eleted, or leave (u)nresolved? c become: no tool found to merge a keep (l)ocal [working copy], take (o)ther [destination], or leave (u)nresolved? u and remote [source] changed a which local [dest] deleted use (c)hanged version, leave (d)eleted, or leave (u)nresolved? c where "working copy" and "destination" were supplied by the command that requested the merge as labels for conflict markers, and thus should be human-friendly.
