windows: sanity-check symlink placeholders On Windows, we store symlinks as plain files with the link contents. Via user error or NFS/Samba assistance, these files often end up with 'normal' file contents. Committing these changes thus gives an invalid symlink that can't be checked out on Unix. Here we filter out any modified symlink placeholders that look suspicious when computing status: - more than 1K (looks more like a normal file) - contain NULs (not allowed on Unix, probably a binary) - contains \n (filenames can't contain \n, very unusual for symlinks, very common for files)

+Create extension that can disable symlink support:

+Simulate a checkout shared on NFS/Samba:

+  $ cd shared
+  $ rm b
+  $ echo foo > b
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py status --debug
+  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"

+Make a clone using placeholders:
+
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py clone . ../win-repo
+  updating to branch default
+  2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
+  $ cd ../win-repo
+  $ cat b
+  a (no-eol)
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug

+Write binary data to the placeholder:
+
+  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this is a binary\0')
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
+  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"
+
+Write a long string to the placeholder:
+
+  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this' * 1000)
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
+  ignoring suspect symlink placeholder "b"
+
+Commit shouldn't succeed:
+
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py ci -m1
+  nothing changed
+  [1]
+
+Write a valid string to the placeholder:
+
+  >>> open('b', 'w').write('this')
+  $ hg --config extensions.n=$TESTTMP/nolink.py st --debug
