histedit: replace various nodes lists with replacement graph (and issue3582)
This changeset rewrites the change tracking logic of histedit to record every
operation it does. Tracked operations record the full list of "old" node that
will eventually be removed to the list of new nodes that replace it. Operations
on temporary nodes are tracked too. Dropped changesets are also recorded as an
"old" node replacement by nothing. This logic is similar to the obsolescence
marker one and will be used for this purpose in later commit.
This new logic implies a big amount of change in the histedit code base.
histedit action functions now always return a tuple of
(new-ctx, [list of rewriting operations])
The old `created`, `replaced` and `tmpnodes` are no longer returned and stored
during histedit operation. When such information is necessary it is computed
from the replacement graph. This computation is done in the `processreplacement`
function.
The `replacemap` is also dropped. It is computed at the end of the command from the
graph. The `bootstrapcontinue` methods are altered to compute this different kind of
information.
This new mechanism requires much less information to be written on disk.
Note:
This changes allows a more accurate bookmark movement. bookmark on dropped
changeset are now move of their parent (or replacement of their parent)
instead of their children.
This fix issue3582

Mercurial for Plan 9 from Bell Labs =================================== This directory contains support for Mercurial on Plan 9 from Bell Labs platforms. It is assumed that the version of Python running on these systems supports the ANSI/POSIX Environment (APE). At the time of this writing, the bichued/python port is the most commonly installed version of Python on these platforms. If a native port of Python is ever made, some minor modification will need to be made to support some of the more esoteric requirements of the platform rather than those currently made (cf. posix.py). By default, installations will have the factotum extension enabled; this extension permits factotum(4) to act as an authentication agent for HTTP repositories. Additionally, an extdiff command named 9diff is enabled which generates diff(1) compatible output suitable for use with the plumber(4). Commit messages are plumbed using E if no editor is defined; users must update the plumbed file to continue, otherwise the hg process must be interrupted. Some work remains with regard to documentation. Section 5 manual page references for hgignore and hgrc need to be re-numbered to section 6 (file formats) and a new man page writer should be written to support the Plan 9 man macro set. Until these issues can be resolved, manual pages are elided from the installation. Basic install: % mk install # do a system-wide install % hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup % hg # see help A proto(2) file is included in this directory as an example of how a binary distribution could be packaged, ostensibly with contrib(1). See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
