revset: don't cache abstractsmartset min/max invocations infinitely There was a "leak", apparently introduced in ab66c1dee405. When running: hg = hglib.open('repo') while True: hg.log("max(branch('default'))") all filteredset instances from branch() would be cached indefinitely by the @util.cachefunc annotation on the max() implementation. util.cachefunc seems dangerous as method decorator and is barely used elsewhere in the code base. Instead, just open code caching by having the min/max methods replace themselves with a plain lambda returning the result.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
