transaction: allow running file generators after finalizers Previously, transaction.close would run the file generators before running the finalizers (see the list below for what is in each). Since file generators contain the bookmarks and the dirstate, this meant we made the dirstate and bookmarks visible to external readers before we actually wrote the commits into the changelog, which could result in missing bookmarks and missing working copy parents (especially on servers with high commit throughput, since pulls might fail to see certain bookmarks in this situation). By moving the changelog writing to be before the bookmark/dirstate writing, we ensure the commits are present before they are referenced. This implementation allows certain file generators to be after the finalizers. We didn't want to move all of the generators, since it's important that things like phases actually run before the finalizers (otherwise you could expose commits as public when they really shouldn't be). For reference, file generators currently consist of: bookmarks, dirstate, and phases. Finalizers currently consist of: changelog, revbranchcache, and fncache.

run-tests: move install.err into test area Without this, sometimes installerrs generated errors about no such file. It also did not work well when you had multiple tests runners running around. It also did not make sense to pollute the repository test directory with the log file.

help: report source of aliases

compact: add color labels to -Tcompact

util: fix doc for datestr() timezone parameter was removed with c3182eeb70ea

date: reallow negative timestamp, fix for Windows buggy gmtime() (issue2513) DVCS are very useful to store various texts (as legislation) written before Unix epoch. Fri, 13 Dec 1901 is a nice gain over Thu, 01 Jan 1970. Revert dd24f3e7ca9e and e1002cf9fe54, fix c208dcd0f709. Add tests.

tests: use /usr/bin/env python for test-status-inprocess.py everyone else uses it, and the next commit will add a rule for it

run-tests: fix broken regular expression The regular expression in use passed tests because the test repo only has single-digit changesets present. When I tried to use this for real today, it broke, because the regular expression would only match a single digit. https://xkcd.com/1171/, or something like that.

test: don't rely on __del__ in test-devel-warnings.t Whatever the future of __del__ in Mercurial is, that devel-warning test is not about testing the automatic transaction rollback and we should explicitly call release. This change make this tests pass with pypy, as pypy try less hard to call __del__ at program exit.

dispatch: split out warning message generation to separate function Allow for patching warning message generation, or for patching out the ui.log / ui.warn behaviour (but still generate the warning message).
