shortest: use nodetree for finding shortest node within revset This speeds up `hg log -T '{shortest(node,1)}\n'` in my repo from 12s to 4.5s. That's very close to the 4.1s it takes without the disambiguation revset configured. My repo has 69.5k revisions, of which 550 were in the configured revset ("not public()").

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install::

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing::

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
