bundle2: equate 'UN' with no compression An upcoming patch will change the "alg" argument passed to this function from None to "UN" when no compression is wanted. The existing implementation of bundle2 does not set a "Compression" parameter if no compression is used. In theory, setting "Compression=UN" should work. But I haven't audited the code to see if all client versions supporting bundle2 will accept this. Rather than take the risk, avoid the BC breakage and treat "UN" the same as None.

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.
