transaction: support cache file in backupentries
We do not want to abort if anything wrong happen while handling a cache file.
Cache file have way to be invalidated and if old/bad version stay no
misbehavior will happen. Proper value will eventually be computed and the wrong
will be righten.
This changeset use the transaction reporter (usually writing on stderr) to write
details about failed cache handling. This will only apply to write operation
using a transaction. The usual update during read only operation will stay a
debug message.
I was on the way to bring these message back to debug level when I realised it
could be a feature. People with write access to the repository are likely to
have the power to fix error related to cache (and it is valuable to fix them).
So let the things as is for now.
Test encode/decode filters
$ hg init
$ cat > .hg/hgrc <<EOF
> [encode]
> not.gz = tr [:lower:] [:upper:]
> *.gz = gzip -d
> [decode]
> not.gz = tr [:upper:] [:lower:]
> *.gz = gzip
> EOF
$ echo "this is a test" | gzip > a.gz
$ echo "this is a test" > not.gz
$ hg add *
$ hg ci -m "test"
no changes
$ hg status
$ touch *
no changes
$ hg status
check contents in repo are encoded
$ hg debugdata a.gz 0
this is a test
$ hg debugdata not.gz 0
THIS IS A TEST
check committed content was decoded
$ gunzip < a.gz
this is a test
$ cat not.gz
this is a test
$ rm *
$ hg co -C
2 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
check decoding of our new working dir copy
$ gunzip < a.gz
this is a test
$ cat not.gz
this is a test
check hg cat operation
$ hg cat a.gz
this is a test
$ hg cat --decode a.gz | gunzip
this is a test
$ mkdir subdir
$ cd subdir
$ hg -R .. cat ../a.gz
this is a test
$ hg -R .. cat --decode ../a.gz | gunzip
this is a test
$ cd ..
