revert: option to choose what to keep, not what to discard I know the you (the reader) are probably tired of discussing how `hg revert -i -r .` should behave and so am I. And I know I'm one of the people who argued that showing the diff from the working copy to the parent was confusing. I think it is less confusing now that we show the diff from the parent to the working copy, but I still find it confusing. I think showing the diff of hunks to keep might make it easier to understand. So that's what this patch provides an option for. One argument doing it this way is that most people seem to find `hg split` natural. I suspect that is because it shows the forward diff (from parent commit to the commit) and asks you what to put in the first commit. I think the new "keep" mode for revert (this patch) matches that. In "keep" mode, all the changes are still selected by default. That means that `hg revert -i` followed by 'A' (keep all) (or 'c' in curses) will be different from `hg revert -a`. That's mostly because that was simplest. It can also be argued that it's safest. But it can also be argued that it should be consistent with `hg revert -a`. Note that in this mode, you can edit the hunks and it will do what you expect (e.g. add new lines to your file if you added a new lines when editing). The test case shows that that works.

patch: include newline at EOF in help text for interactive patch The lack of a newline means that some "editors" that are useful in tests, such as `echo "+new line" >> "$1"` don't work. It's obviously easy to work around it, but newline at EOF seems like a good practice anyway. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D6124

patch: include flag-only file changes in "special" when filtering (issue5864) This patch fix the issue5864 (or maybe issue5865 too) which occurs during split (or I should say at the time of filtering the hunks in interactive mode) where user hits a not ending loop of "no changes to record". And it's not only the case for split it will happen in every interactive case for e.g. `hg commit -i` or `hg uncommit -i` After looking into code I found that when filtering we have some notation called "special" for the file headers which doesn't contain any hunk and just contain the header (for e.g. newly added empty file or deleted file) where the user cannot change the content of operation. And I think we can put this "flag-only" file change in that same bucket of "special". But I doubt a bit about the case when a file have flag change and atleast one hunk then user won't be able to separate the flag change from hunks. Changed test file reflect the fixed behaviour.

store: error out if fncache does not ends with a newline If fncache does not ends with a newline, chunk will not be fully consumed. It should be a bug somewhere or the fncache is corrupted if that happens. Let's error out in such cases. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D6148

tracked: add documentation about `--import-rules` flag The documentation is inspired from the `--import-rules` flag of hg debugsparse command. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D6150

discovery: fix embarrassing typo in slice definition The code introduced in e514799e4e07 ended up having a silly bug. The indexing selected a single item slice picking only p1. The discovery result was still correct, but the sampling was hampered, sometime leading to much more round trips being performed. Fixing this issue restore the previous sampling behavior. This fix has a negative performance impact on the pathological case the previous test has been built. # parent of this changesets ! wall 5.313884 comb 5.310000 user 5.260000 sys 0.050000 (best of 5) ! wall 6.711860 comb 6.710000 user 6.670000 sys 0.040000 (max of 5) ! wall 5.844016 comb 5.842000 user 5.784000 sys 0.058000 (avg of 5) ! wall 5.778635 comb 5.780000 user 5.740000 sys 0.040000 (median of 5) # With this changesets. ! wall 6.350879 comb 6.350000 user 6.300000 sys 0.050000 (best of 5) ! wall 6.653647 comb 6.660000 user 6.480000 sys 0.180000 (max of 5) ! wall 6.492762 comb 6.494000 user 6.414000 sys 0.080000 (avg of 5) ! wall 6.547577 comb 6.550000 user 6.490000 sys 0.060000 (median of 5) Changeset e514799e4e07 raised the question of using the "_uncheckedparentrevs" instead of the current code.

I'll investigate this shortly. I'm almost done updating our benchmark suite with more meaningful discovery cases.

store: don't read the whole fncache in memory In large repositories with lot of files, the fncache grows more than 100 MB and reading that whole thing into memory slows things down. Let's not read the whole thing into memory. This patch changes fncache loading code to read 1 MB at once. Loading 1 MB at once saves ~1 sec on perffncacheload for our internal repository. I tried various values such as 0.5 MB, 5 MB, 10 MB but best results were produced using 1 MB as the chunksize. On a narrow clone with fncache around 40 MB, this patch saves ~0.04 seconds on average on perffncacheload. To test the code, I have coded an extension in test-fncache.t which set chunksize to 1 byte, and the test passes with that. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5296
