scmutil: improve documentation of revset APIs I can never remember the differences between the various revset APIs. I can never remember that scmutil.revrange() is the one I want to use from user-facing commands. Add some documentation to clarify this. While we're here, the argument name for revrange() is changed to "specs" because that's what it actually is.

mdiff: remove use of __slots__ The use of __slots__ was added way back in 2006 in 4ec58b157265. __slots__ isn't necessary for this class.

i18n: use unicode literal Other parts of this expression are already using unicode literals. We need this to make Python 3 happy and to avoid an implicit conversion in Python 2.

pycompat: add HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm to Python 3 block Looks like we missed this in 800ec7c048b0.

ui: path option to declare which revisions to push by default Now that we have a mechanism for declaring path sub-options, we can start to pile on features! Many power users have expressed frustration that bare `hg push` attempts to push all local revisions to the remote. This patch introduces the "pushrev" path sub-option to control which revisions are pushed when no "-r" argument is specified. The value of this sub-option is a revset, naturally. A future feature addition could potentially introduce a "pushnames" sub-options that declares the list of names (branches, bookmarks, topics, etc) to push by default. The entire "what to push by default" feature should probably be considered before this patch lands.

ui: don't fixup [paths] sub-options As part of developing a subsequent patch I discovered that sub-option values like "." were getting converted to paths. This is because the [paths] section is treated specially during config loading. This patch prevents post-processing sub-options from the [paths] section.

sslutil: abort when unable to verify peer connection (BC) Previously, when we connected to a server and were unable to verify its certificate against a trusted certificate authority we would issue a warning and continue to connect. This is obviously not great behavior because the x509 certificate model is based upon trust of specific CAs. Failure to enforce that trust erodes security. This behavior was defined several years ago when Python did not support loading the system trusted CA store (Python 2.7.9's backports of Python 3's improvements to the "ssl" module enabled this). This commit changes behavior when connecting to abort if the peer certificate can't be validated. With an empty/default Mercurial configuration, the peer certificate can be validated if Python is able to load the system trusted CA store. Environments able to load the system trusted CA store include: * Python 2.7.9+ on most platforms and installations * Python 2.7 distributions with a modern ssl module (e.g. RHEL7's patched 2.7.5 package) * Python shipped on OS X Environments unable to load the system trusted CA store include: * Python 2.6 * Python 2.7 on many existing Linux installs (because they don't ship 2.7.9+ or haven't backported modern ssl module) * Python 2.7.9+ on some installs where Python is unable to locate the system CA store (this is hopefully rare) Users of these Pythongs will need to configure Mercurial to load the system CA store using web.cacerts. This should ideally be performed by packagers (by setting web.cacerts in the global/system hgrc file). Where Mercurial packagers aren't setting this, the linked URL in the new abort message can contain instructions for users. In the future, we may want to add more code for finding the system CA store. For example, many Linux distributions have the CA store at well-known locations (such as /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt in the case of Ubuntu). This will enable CA loading to "just work" on more Python configurations and will be best for our users since they won't have to change anything after upgrading to a Mercurial with this patch. We may also want to consider distributing a trusted CA store with Mercurial. Although we should think long and hard about that because most systems have a global CA store and Mercurial should almost certainly use the same store used by everything else on the system.

sslutil: remove out of place comment This comment likely got orphaned as a result of refactoring in this file. It isn't providing any useful value. So delete it.

largefiles: remove additional blank line between methods in localstore According to the coding style it should be a single blank line between functions.

revset: make head() honor order of subset The ordering of 'x & head()' was broken in 6a1a4c212d50 (revset: improve head revset performance, 2014-03-13). Presumably due to other optimizations since then, undoing that change to fix the order does not slow down the simple case of "hg log -r 'head()'" mentioned in that commit. I see a small slowdown from ~0.16s to about ~0.19s with 'not 0 & head()', but I'd say it's worth it for the correct output.
