util: accept "now, today, yesterday" for dates even the locale is not english
Hi there!
Fixed date names are helpful for automated systems. So it is possible to
use english date parameter even if the underlying system uses another
locale.
We have here a jenkins with build jobs on different slaves that will do
some operations with "dates" parameter. Some systems uses English locale
and some systems uses German locale. So we needed to configure the job to
uses other date names.
As this is really annoying to keep the systems locale in mind for some
operations I looked into util.py. It would be helpful for automated systems
if the "default English" date names would even usable on other
locales.
I attached a simple patch for this.
Best regards

Test how largefiles abort in case the disk runs full

The largefile is not created in .hg/largefiles:
$ ls .hg/largefiles
dirstate
The user cache is not even created:
>>> import os; os.path.exists("$HOME/.cache/largefiles/")
False
Make the commit with space on the device:
$ hg commit -m big
Now make a clone with a full disk, and make sure lfutil.link function
makes copies instead of hardlinks:
$ cd ..
$ hg --config extensions.criple=$TESTTMP/criple.py clone --pull alice bob
