scmutil: add writereporequirements() and route requires writing through it In upcoming patches, to implement Share Safe plan we will be introducing requires file in store. We need to route all callers to a single function to check for a share-safe requirement and if present, write requirements to .hg/store/requires instead. After this patch, callers directly calling scmutil.writerequires() are only those where we don't have the repo object, for example when initializing the repository object itself.

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
