typing: add type hints to mercurial/help.py Was hoping to find more issues like f09bc2ed9100, but it may be that nothing checks the args to that operation. In any event, the work is done and pytype doesn't do a very good job inferring the types. A few of th emore complicated things like the command table are left untyped, because they come from modules that aren't typed yet.

configitems: add a default value for "merge-tools.xxx.regappend" When trying to figure out how `hg help -v` took the Set interpolation path in f09bc2ed9100, I turned on devel warnings and noticed this (unrelated) warning: devel-warn: specifying a mismatched default value for a registered config item: 'merge-tools.beyondcompare4.regappend' '' at: c:\Users\Matt\hg\mercurial\filemerge.py:46 (_toolstr) The previous default value for this config was `None`, but that slightly complicates the code at the only site it is used, referenced above.

attr: vendor 22.1.0 The previous version was 5 years old, and pytype 2022.06.30 started complaining about various uses (e.g. seeing `mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr` instead of `bytearray`). Hopefully this helps. Additionally, this has official python 3.11 support. The `attrs` package is left out, because it is simply a bunch of *.pyi stubs and `from attr.X import *`, and that's not how they've been used up to this point. We'd probably need to customize those anyway to `from mercurial.thirdparty.attr import *`.

tests: update test-util.py for modern attrs package When updating to 22.1.0, this test started failing: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/mercurial-ci/tests/test-util.py", line 53, in <module> _start_default = (util.timedcmstats.start.default, 'factory') AttributeError: type object 'timedcmstats' has no attribute 'start' Poking around in `hg debugshell`, the attribute is indeed missing, but looks to be attached to `__attrs_attrs__` in both the currently vendored and the modern version of attrs. The old attrs packages will print the same for both accesses, so fingers crossed... >>> print((util.timedcmstats.start.default, 'factory')) (Factory(factory=<function timedcmstats.<lambda> at 0x000001EFDF0F21F0>, takes_self=False), 'factory') >>> print((util.timedcmstats.__attrs_attrs__.start.default, 'factory')) (Factory(factory=<function timedcmstats.<lambda> at 0x000001EFDF0F21F0>, takes_self=False), 'factory')

rhg: upgrade the remainder of the dependencies These are painless, so they are all grouped in this changeset.

rhg: upgrade `clap` dependency This one is the worst one to upgrade since v2 -> v4 broke a ton of API, which thankfully seems saner now. Contrary to what was done in the `hg-core/src/examples/nodemap` rewrite, we're not switching from the "builder" pattern to the "derive" pattern, since that would imply a much larger diff. It can be done incrementally.

hg-cpython: upgrade dependencies `hg-cpython` has no BC breaking dependencies, we can group them all in this changeset.

hg-core: upgrade all remaining dependencies Finally, these dependencies do not require any code changes, so they are all grouped in the same changeset.

hg-core: upgrade `clap` dependency Upgrading is a finally possible now that we're supporting a more recent version of Rust. This required changes in the `nodemap` example.

hg-core: upgrade `zstd` dependency Now that we support a newer version of Rust, we can update this dependency to get all the latest bugfixes and improvements. A slight API adjustment was needed.
