manifest: avoid corruption by dropping removed files with pure (issue5801)
Previously, removed files would simply be marked by overwriting the first byte
with NUL and dropping their entry in `self.position`. But no effort was made to
ignore them when compacting the dictionary into text form. This allowed them to
slip into the manifest revision, since the code seems to be trying to minimize
the string operations by copying as large a chunk as possible. As part of this,
compact() walks the existing text based on entries in the `positions` list, and
consumed everything up to the next position entry. This typically resulted in
a ValueError complaining about unsorted manifest entries.
Sometimes it seems that files do get dropped in large repos- it seems to
correspond to there being a new entry that would take the same slot. A much
more trivial problem is that if the only changes were removals, `_compact()`
didn't even run because `__delitem__` doesn't add anything to `self.extradata`.
Now there's an explicit variable to flag this, both to allow `_compact()` to
run, and to avoid searching the manifest in cases where there are no removals.
In practice, this behavior was mostly obscured by the check in fastdelta() which
takes a different path that explicitly drops removed files if there are fewer
than 1000 changes. However, timeless has a repo where after rebasing tens of
commits, a totally different path[1] is taken that bypasses the change count
check and hits this problem.

https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/522 In the merge below, the file "foo" has the same contents in both parents, but if we look at the file-level history, we'll notice that the version in p1 is an ancestor of the version in p2. This test makes sure that we'll use the version from p2 in the manifest of the merge revision. $ hg init $ echo foo > foo $ hg ci -qAm 'add foo' $ echo bar >> foo $ hg ci -m 'change foo' $ hg backout -r tip -m 'backout changed foo' reverting foo changeset 2:4d9e78aaceee backs out changeset 1:b515023e500e $ hg up -C 0 1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved $ touch bar $ hg ci -qAm 'add bar' $ hg merge --debug searching for copies back to rev 1 unmatched files in local: bar resolving manifests branchmerge: True, force: False, partial: False ancestor: bbd179dfa0a7, local: 71766447bdbb+, remote: 4d9e78aaceee foo: remote is newer -> g getting foo 1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved (branch merge, don't forget to commit) $ hg debugstate | grep foo m 0 -2 unset foo $ hg st -A foo M foo $ hg ci -m 'merge' $ hg manifest --debug | grep foo c6fc755d7e68f49f880599da29f15add41f42f5a 644 foo $ hg debugindex foo rev linkrev nodeid p1 p2 0 0 2ed2a3912a0b 000000000000 000000000000 1 1 6f4310b00b9a 2ed2a3912a0b 000000000000 2 2 c6fc755d7e68 6f4310b00b9a 000000000000
