dirstate: make writing in-memory changes aware of transaction activity This patch delays writing in-memory changes out, if transaction is running. '_getfsnow()' is defined as a function, to hook it easily for ambiguous timestamp tests (see also fakedirstatewritetime.py) 'if tr:' code path in this patch is still disabled at this revision, because there is no client invoking 'dirstate.write()' with repo object. BTW, this patch changes 'dirstate.invalidate()' semantics around 'dirstate.write()' in a transaction scope: before: with repo.transaction(): dirstate.CHANGE('A') dirstate.write() # change for A is written out here dirstate.CHANGE('B') dirstate.invalidate() # discards only change for B after: with repo.transaction(): dirstate.CHANGE('A') dirstate.write() # change for A is still kept in memory dirstate.CHANGE('B') dirstate.invalidate() # discards changes for A and B Fortunately, there is no code path expecting the former, at least, in Mercurial itself, because 'dirstateguard' was introduced to remove such 'dirstate.invalidate()'.
