36 * '''Major feature''': version 2 of the dirstate is available (the first version is as old as Mercurial itself). It allows for much faster working copy inspection (status, diff, commit, update, etc.) and richer information (symlink and exec info on Windows, etc.). The format has been frozen with room for some future evolution and the current implementations (Python, Python + C, Python + Rust or pure Rust) should be compatible with any future change or optimization that the format allows. You can get more information [[https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/file/tip/mercurial/helptext/internals/dirstate-v2.txt | in the internal documentation]]
