status: use filesystem time boundary to invalidate racy mtime
We record the filesystem time at the start of the status walk and use that as a
boundary to detect files that might be modified during (or right after) the
status run without the mtime allowing that edition to be detected. We
currently do this at a second precision. In a later patch, we will use
nanosecond precision when available.
To cope with "broken" time on the file system where file could be in the
future, we also keep mtime for file over one day in the future. See inline
comment for details.
Large file tests get a bit more confused as we reduce the odds for race
condition.
As a "side effect", the win32text extension is happy again.

Mercurial ========= Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool for software developers. Basic install:: $ make # see install targets $ make install # do a system-wide install $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup $ hg # see help Running without installing:: $ make local # build for inplace usage $ ./hg --version # should show the latest version See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information. Notes for packagers =================== Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported configuration.
