doc: fix underline length for config title (issue5949) This was an error in the initial commit. Thanks go to Marcel Svitalský for reporting the bug.

clone: process 'lookup' return as an arbitrary symbol In theory, checkout is expected to be a node here because it was returned by peer.lookup. In practice, multiple important extensions (like hg-git, hg-subversion) use peers not backed by a mercurial repository where lookup cannot return a node. Allowing arbitrary symbols is necessary to make these extensions working with 4.7. We should probably introduce a new API in Core to have these extensions to work without abusing the lookup API. In the meantime, a small change to restore compatibility in 4.7 seems in order.

tests: use inline Python instead of sed to add trailing whitespace The sed invocation was failing on OS X and FreeBSD. I'm far too lazy to diagnose that, so just use some inline Python to fix the build.

context: add missing b prefix This fixes mercurial/context.py:593: SyntaxError: cannot mix bytes and nonbytes literals (context.py, line 593) in Python 3.

doctest: convert matcher root to native path Otherwise it wouldn't be caught by a fast path of pathutil.canonpath(), and fall back to file identity checks.

test-fileset: make con.xml in output conditionally available

test-obsmarker-template: run mkcommit in subshell to isolate envvars I don't know if it is a feature or a bug, but it appears that environment variables passed to a shell function persist on /bin/sh.

test-obsmarker-template: add missing HGENCODING=latin-1 It just worked by accident on some Linux sh.

gitweb: add link to graph error.tmpl wasn't consistent with other templates in gitweb in that it was missing a "graph" link. This commit makes it consistent.

config: rename `revlog` section into `storage` The idea was suggested by Gregory Szorc on IRC. It is more generic and seems better. It is probably best to rename the section before it ever makes into an official (non-rc) release. The only config option currently in this section have been prefixed with `revlog` to clarify it applies to `revlog` related storage.

histedit: drop --no-backup option Dropping this option because now we have a better option than passing --no-backup flag every time, now user can set a config in hgrc: [ui] history-editing-backup = False This config aims to operate on every history editing command and it is still work in progress.

aggressivemergedelta: document rename and move to `revlog` section The config does not follow our naming guideline and "Aggressive" is probably a word to keep away from users. The option does not truly fit in the `format` section. It can be turned on and off for existing repository without much consequence regarding compatibility. A new `revlog` option is created to control behavior related to revlog writing and reading. We can see multiple other config options that could be migrated there. * format.maxchainlen * experimental.mmapindexthreshold * experimental.sparse-read.density-threshold (in an updated form) * experimental.sparse-read.min-gap-size (in an updated form) In addition, we can foresee at least a couple of sparse-revlog related option coming too (to reduce delta chain length and increase snapshot reuse) These two extra options might fit there too. Unless we want to create a section dedicated to caches and performance. * format.chunkcachesize * format.manifestcachesize For now, we only migrate `optimize-delta-parent-choice` since it is getting out of experimental. It is too close to the release to move the other one. In addition, we still lack proper the prioritization of alias that would help renaming them without bad consequence for users. (Not fully happy about the `revlog` name but could not find better).

aggressivemergedeltas: rename variable internally The "aggressivemergedeltas" name is not great. First, it is quite long, second, we would rather have less "Aggressive" names within the project. We are about to rename the config option, so it seems the appropriate time to rename the internal variable.

config: document the purpose of the `format` config section The config section now have a top level documentation to clarify its intend and usage. In particular, user are now explain when the option are taken in account and how to convert repository. There are an handful of experimental options in this section that does not match its definition. They should be relocated to other section before getting out of experimental. (see next changeset for one example).

merge: mark file gets as not thread safe (issue5933) In default installs, this has the effect of disabling the thread-based worker on Windows when manifesting files in the working directory. My measurements have shown that with revlog-based repositories, Mercurial spends a lot of CPU time in revlog code resolving file data. This ends up incurring a lot of context switching across threads and slows down `hg update` operations when going from an empty working directory to the tip of the repo. On mozilla-unified (246,351 files) on an i7-6700K (4+4 CPUs): before: 487s wall after: 360s wall (equivalent to worker.enabled=false) cpus=2: 379s wall Even with only 2 threads, the thread pool is still slower. The introduction of the thread-based worker (02b36e860e0b) states that it resulted in a "~50%" speedup for `hg sparse --enable-profile` and `hg sparse --disable-profile`. This disagrees with my measurement above. I theorize a few reasons for this: 1) Removal of files from the working directory is I/O - not CPU - bound and should benefit from a thread pool (unless I/O is insanely fast and the GIL release is near instantaneous). So tests like `hg sparse --enable-profile` may exercise deletion throughput and aren't good benchmarks for worker tasks that are CPU heavy. 2) The patch was authored by someone at Facebook. The results were likely measured against a repository using remotefilelog. And I believe that revision retrieval during working directory updates with remotefilelog will often use a remote store, thus being I/O and not CPU bound. This probably resulted in an overstated performance gain. Since there appears to be a need to enable the thread-based worker with some stores, I've made the flagging of file gets as thread safe configurable. I've made it experimental because I don't want to formalize a boolean flag for this option and because this attribute is best captured against the store implementation. But we don't have a proper store API for this yet. I'd rather cross this bridge later. It is possible there are revlog-based repositories that do benefit from a thread-based worker. I didn't do very comprehensive testing. If there are, we may want to devise a more proper algorithm for whether to use the thread-based worker, including possibly config options to limit the number of threads to use. But until I see evidence that justifies complexity, simplicity wins. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D3963

worker: ability to disable thread unsafe tasks The worker on Windows is implemented using a thread pool. If worker tasks are not thread safe, badness can occur. In addition, if tasks are executing CPU bound code and holding onto the GIL, there will be non-substantial overhead in Python context switching between active threads. This can result in significant slowdowns of tasks. This commit teaches the code for determining whether to use a worker to take thread safety into account. Effectively, thread unsafe tasks don't use the thread-based worker on Windows. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D3962

debug: move extensions debug behind a dedicated flag Since b86664c81833, we process the `--debug` flag earlier. This is overall good and useful, but has at least one negative side effect. Previously the debug message we report when trying to import extensions were issued before we processed the `--debug` flag. Now they happen after. Before: $ ./hg id --debug 21f507b8de2f9c1606e9aeb5ec7d2a6dedb7a4a7 tip After: $ ./hg id --debug ☿ (revset-bench) could not import hgext.evolve (No module named evolve): trying hgext3rd.evolve could not import hgext.mercurial_keyring (No module named mercurial_keyring): trying hgext3rd.mercurial_keyring could not import hgext3rd.mercurial_keyring (No module named mercurial_keyring): trying mercurial_keyring could not import hgext.hggit (No module named hggit): trying hgext3rd.hggit could not import hgext3rd.hggit (No module named hggit): trying hggit 21f507b8de2f9c1606e9aeb5ec7d2a6dedb7a4a7 tip (This get worse if --traceback is used). To work around this, we move this extensions related debug message behind a new flag 'devel.debug.extensions' and restore the previous output. I'm not fully happy about using the 'devel' section for a flag that can be used by legitimate users to debug extensions issues. However, it fits well next to other `devel.devel.*` options and is mostly used by extensions author anyway. We might move it to another, more appropriate section in the future (using alias).
