revlog: calculate base revisions iteratively
This is in preparation for generaldelta, where the revlog entry base field is
reinterpreted as the deltaparent. For that reason we also rename the base
function to chainbase.
Without generaldelta, performance is unaffected, but generaldelta will suffer
from this in _addrevision, since delta chains will be walked repeatedly.
A cache has been added to eliminate this problem completely.

Mercurial allows you to customize output of commands through templates. You can either pass in a template from the command line, via the --template option, or select an existing template-style (--style). You can customize output for any "log-like" command: log, outgoing, incoming, tip, parents, heads and glog. Four styles are packaged with Mercurial: default (the style used when no explicit preference is passed), compact, changelog, and xml. Usage:: $ hg log -r1 --style changelog A template is a piece of text, with markup to invoke variable expansion:: $ hg log -r1 --template "{node}\n" b56ce7b07c52de7d5fd79fb89701ea538af65746 Strings in curly braces are called keywords. The availability of keywords depends on the exact context of the templater. These keywords are usually available for templating a log-like command: .. keywordsmarker The "date" keyword does not produce human-readable output. If you want to use a date in your output, you can use a filter to process it. Filters are functions which return a string based on the input variable. Be sure to use the stringify filter first when you're applying a string-input filter to a list-like input variable. You can also use a chain of filters to get the desired output:: $ hg tip --template "{date|isodate}\n" 2008-08-21 18:22 +0000 List of filters: .. filtersmarker
