performance: speedup computation of suspended revisions In their current state, revset calls can be very costly, as we test predicates on the entire repository. This change drops a revset call in favor of direct testing of the phase of changesets. Performance test on my Mercurial checkout - 19857 total changesets, - 1584 obsolete changesets, - 13310 obsolescence markers.

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
