emitrevision: if we need to compute a delta on the fly, try p1 or p2 first Falling back to `prev` does not yield any real value on modern storage and result in pathological changes to be created on the other side. Doing a delta against a parent will likely be smaller (helping the network) and will be safer to apply on the client (helping future pulls by Triggering intermediate snapshop where they will be needed by later deltas).

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
