dirstate: introduce an internal `_remove` method We want to split current user of `dirstate.remove` between `hg rm`-like cases and update of the dirstate coming from update/merge. To do this we will introduce new API. The first step is to introduces an internal function that these new API migh use (or not use) to distinct between the migrated users and the others.

dirstate: introduce an internal `_add` method We want to split current user of `dirstate.add` between `hg add`-like cases and update of the dirstate coming from update/merge. To do this we will introduce new API. The first step is to introduces an internal function that these new API migh use (or not use) to distinct between the migrated users and the others.

run-tests: rely on an actual executable in PATH instead of alias for `hg` The alias approach is poorly inherited by other process that the test might spawn. To solve this we use the same approach as for `python`/`python3` we write an executable file explicitly. Doing this fixes `which hg` invocation that now returns the same location as `hg`. Using chg server side has some minor effect on some stdout/stderr ordering when using `chg` as the server too. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11053

tests: blacklist a handful of test with `rhg` or `chg` The use of `alias` to enforce `chg` and `rhg` means we are actually using a mix of `rhg`/`chg` and `hg` when calling `hg` in the test. Fixing this breaks various tests. This would be a large detour to fix that. I am disabling them for now with an appropriate comment. We would hopefully get back to them by the 5.8 release.

run-tests: use more explicit signaling for `chg` Using a dedicated variable is clearer and less fragile. It cannot hurt. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11051

run-tests: drop the `rhg` flag for `hghave.py` if unset This seems cleaner. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11050

run-tests: introduce a `HGTEST_REAL_HG` variable for test It turns out that currently, `hg` and `which hg` can point to different things because `hg` is an alias… This is annoying because script and pieces of test are unknowingly using the wrong `hg`. We will fix it in another changeset. However some test actually need to use a real `hg` binary and not some `chg` or `rhg` equivalent. So we introduce a new variable with the right value and we put it to us in the appropriate location. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11049

run-test: clarify the error with a bad --with-hg is passed This helped me to understand what was going on when I got into trouble. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11046

windows: make sure we fully read and cleanly close the connection Maybe this will prevent server on Windows to sometimes complains about the client closing the connection too soon. So we make sure we read everything and we officially close the connection. Hopefully Windows will be happier and the test will stop being flaky. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11073

test-bookmark: clarify the path involved in a pull creating divergence This make the test easier to follow. Especially because this part is currently failing on windows. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11056

test-removeemptydirs: adjust to Windows behavior for the `histedit` case Windows stay in the "same" directory and the warning message is not applicable. This make `tests/test-removeemptydirs.t` pass on Windows. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11055

test-removeemptydirs: clarify the state of things in the `histedit` case This make the test easier to follow and will help to compare with the behavior on windows. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11054

test-infinitepush: drop unused helper They are unused since de4c2f3af97f. We drop them for clarity. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11048

run-tests: setup "correct" python earlier I don't see any good reason to wait. This result in slightly simpler code. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11047

run-tests: cleanup windows generation of the python / python3 pointeur They are no need to generate then in RUNTESTDIR and we don't need a python2 executable. (because not test ever use `python2` explicitly). This is probably still not perfect, but at least it is better. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11045

run-tests: always define a custom-bin directory We are always generating `python` / `python3` executable and we will soon often generate a `hg` executable. So let's always make it a thing. This will help us to make sure we have the appropriate binary available to all script. On both linux and Windows. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11044

run-tests: explicitly track that `pythondir` was inferred If we want to know that something happened, we should simply track that this things happened. This will be useful to start using `tmpbindir` more in a different form. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11043

run-tests: use a global WINDOWS constant instead of multiple tests This should make the code clearer. This required the adjustement of a hack in the code testing this code. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11041

test-run-test: use explicit variables to clarify paths Since $TESTTMP and $TESTDIR are defined for both the main scope and the test run during the test, the situation get confusing. To work around that, we define some new, explicit, variables with the values we needs to keep track of. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11034

run-tests: also catch double-escapes for $TESTTMP On Windows the `$TESTTMP` string "repr" is different than its value, because `\` become `\\`. We introduce a new `$STR_REPR_TESTTMP` substitution to match that too. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11001

ci-windows: introduce manual windows CI Note: most of the foundational work of this commit was done by Matt Harbison, but enough has changed that I don't feel comfortable sending this patch as his. In our quest to remove Python 2 from Mercurial, we need to get Windows CI going to check that Python 3 support is up to an acceptable standard. This is the first step: adding a manual step to run a full Windows CI, with a certain definition of "full" since some things are not installed yet, like SVN. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11025

dirstate-item: deprecate tuple access on the class This should help us to catch and update the last user of this, especially in extensions. People will need to run the test with --pure to actually catch it, but this is better than nothing. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10992

dirstate-item: use the v1_serialization method in debugstate I am assuming the debug command are looking into the serialized format so I am using the `v1_` variants. This assumption might be wrong. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10988

dirstate-item: also build DistateItem in dirstate.directories() The rust code was building tuple. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10983
