cmdserver: include pid of server handling requests in hello message Because unix-mode server forks child process per connection, client does not know the pid of the server that will handle requests. The pid is necessary to interrupt hung process: 1. client connects to socket server 2. server accepts the connection, forks, and tells pid 3. client requests "runcommand pull" .. hung .. 4. client sends SIGINT to the (forked) server 5. server returns from I/O wait Note that getsockopt(SO_PEERCRED) of Linux cannot be used because the server fork()s after accept().

'''
A "pvec" is a changeset property based on the theory of vector clocks
that can be compared to discover relatedness without consulting a
graph. This can be useful for tasks like determining how a
disconnected patch relates to a repository.

Currently a pvec consist of 448 bits, of which 24 are 'depth' and the
remainder are a bit vector. It is represented as a 70-character base85
string.

Construction:

- a root changeset has a depth of 0 and a bit vector based on its hash
- a normal commit has a changeset where depth is increased by one and
  one bit vector bit is flipped based on its hash
- a merge changeset pvec is constructed by copying changes from one pvec into
  the other to balance its depth

Properties:

- for linear changes, difference in depth is always <= hamming distance
- otherwise, changes are probably divergent
- when hamming distance is < 200, we can reliably detect when pvecs are near

Issues:

- hamming distance ceases to work over distances of ~ 200
- detecting divergence is less accurate when the common ancestor is very close
  to either revision or total distance is high
- this could probably be improved by modeling the relation between
  delta and hdist

Uses:

- a patch pvec can be used to locate the nearest available common ancestor for
  resolving conflicts
- ordering of patches can be established without a DAG
- two head pvecs can be compared to determine whether push/pull/merge is needed
  and approximately how many changesets are involved
- can be used to find a heuristic divergence measure between changesets on
  different branches
