speed up hg log --patch
Changing dodiff to read the manifest/changelog for node1 before calling
repo.update allows us to take advantage of the revlog revision cache.
Before this patch and my previous "speed up hg log --debug" patch, when
using hg log -p to display three revisions (A, B and C), dodiff and
repo.changes would end up reading the manifests in this order:
B A B A C B C B
With both patches, this order becomes:
A A B B B B C C
(This considers only dodiff and repo.changes. I'm not sure how other
parts of hg log enter the picture.)
The speed up will depend on the revisions being displayed. (All
"before" times already have my previous "speed up hg log --debug" patch
applied.)

c84c2069592f was the tip of a 10 day old kernel repo that I had lying
around and was where I first tested this patch. For some weird
coincidence it's also a place where the patch makes a huge difference.

MERCURIAL QUICK-START Setting up Mercurial: Note: some distributions fails to include bits of distutils by default, you'll need python-dev to install. You'll also need a C compiler and a 3-way merge tool like merge, tkdiff, or kdiff3. First, unpack the source: $ tar xvzf mercurial-<ver>.tar.gz $ cd mercurial-<ver> To install system-wide: $ python setup.py install # change python to python2.3 if 2.2 is default To install in your home directory (~/bin and ~/lib, actually), run: $ python2.3 setup.py install --home=~ $ export PYTHONPATH=${HOME}/lib/python # (or lib64/ on some systems) $ export PATH=${HOME}/bin:$PATH # add these to your .bashrc And finally: $ hg # test installation, show help If you get complaints about missing modules, you probably haven't set PYTHONPATH correctly. Setting up a Mercurial project: $ cd project/ $ hg init # creates .hg $ hg addremove # add all unknown files and remove all missing files $ hg commit # commit all changes, edit changelog entry Mercurial will look for a file named .hgignore in the root of your repository which contains a set of regular expressions to ignore in file paths. Branching and merging: $ hg clone linux linux-work # create a new branch $ cd linux-work $ <make changes> $ hg commit $ cd ../linux $ hg pull ../linux-work # pull changesets from linux-work $ hg update -m # merge the new tip from linux-work into # our working directory $ hg commit # commit the result of the merge Importing patches: Fast: $ patch < ../p/foo.patch $ hg addremove $ hg commit Faster: $ patch < ../p/foo.patch $ hg commit `lsdiff -p1 ../p/foo.patch` Fastest: $ cat ../p/patchlist | xargs hg import -p1 -b ../p Exporting a patch: (make changes) $ hg commit $ hg tip 28237:747a537bd090880c29eae861df4d81b245aa0190 $ hg export 28237 > foo.patch # export changeset 28237 Network support: # pull from the primary Mercurial repo foo$ hg clone http://selenic.com/hg/ foo$ cd hg # export your current repo via HTTP with browsable interface foo$ hg serve -n "My repo" -p 80 # pushing changes to a remote repo with SSH foo$ hg push ssh://user@example.com/~/hg/ # merge changes from a remote machine bar$ hg pull http://foo/ bar$ hg update -m # merge changes into your working directory # Set up a CGI server on your webserver foo$ cp hgweb.cgi ~/public_html/hg/index.cgi foo$ emacs ~/public_html/hg/index.cgi # adjust the defaults For more info: Documentation in doc/ Mercurial website at http://selenic.com/mercurial Mercurial wiki at http://selenic.com/mercurial/wiki
