util: rename checkcase() to fscasesensitive() (API)
I always read the name "checkcase(path)" as "do we need to check for
case folding at this path", but it's actually (I think) meant to be
read "check if the file system cares about case at this path". I'm
clearly not the only one confused by this as the dirstate has this
property:
def _checkcase(self):
return not util.checkcase(self._join('.hg'))
Maybe we should even inverse the function and call it fscasefolding()
since that's what all callers care about?

When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be specified individually, or provided as a topologically continuous range, separated by the ":" character. The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END are revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If BEGIN is not specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END is not specified, it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus means "all revisions". If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse order. A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 9:6 gives 9, 8, 7, and 6.
