match: fix doctest to use bytes instead of str Fixes doctests on Python 3. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5423

py3: use pycompat.bytechr() instead of chr() in test-fastannotate-revmap.py This makes the test pass on Python 3. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5422

py3: add a missing b'' prefix in contrib/perf.py # skip-blame because just b'' prefixes This fixes test-contrib-perf.t on Python 3 which started failing. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5421

py3: use '%d' for integers instead of '%s' This should fix test-rebase-inmemory.t which started failing on Python 3 after recent changes. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5420

py3: whitelist another passing test caught by buildbot Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5419

py3: fix bad escapes of sub() replacement pattern in test-template-basic.t Python 3.7 starts complaining about it. We have to double the backslash or '\x5c' to get around.

perfdiscovery: benching findcommonheads() This works between the local repo and any peer given by its path, and should be useful for further work on discovery Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5418

templatefuncs: specialize "no match" value of search() to allow % operation If Python had Maybe or Option, the type of the search() result would be Option<Mapping>, which can be considered as a 0/1 container of a Mapping. So it makes sense that {search(r'no match pattern', x) % "whatever"} is mapped to an empty string.

templatefuncs: add regexp search() function that extracts substring This can be used to extract an issue number from a commit message, for example: {search(r'\(issue([0-9]*)\)', desc) % '{1}'}
