sparse: vendor Facebook-developed extension
Facebook has developed an extension to enable "sparse" checkouts -
a working directory with a subset of files. This feature is a critical
component in enabling repositories to scale to infinite number of
files while retaining reasonable performance. It's worth noting
that sparse checkout is only one possible solution to this problem:
another is virtual filesystems that realize files on first access.
But given that virtual filesystems may not be accessible to all
users, sparse checkout is necessary as a fallback.
Per mailing list discussion at
https://www.mercurial-scm.org/pipermail/mercurial-devel/2017-March/095868.html
we want to add sparse checkout to the Mercurial distribution via
roughly the following mechanism:
1. Vendor extension as-is with minimal modifications (this patch)
2. Refactor extension so it is more clearly experimental and inline
with Mercurial practices
3. Move code from extension into core where possible
4. Drop experimental labeling and/or move feature into core
after sign-off from narrow clone feature owners
This commit essentially copies the sparse extension and tests
from revision 71e0a2aeca92a4078fe1b8c76e32c88ff1929737 of the
https://bitbucket.org/facebook/hg-experimental repository.
A list of modifications made as part of vendoring is as follows:
* "EXPERIMENTAL" added to module docstring
* Imports were changed to match Mercurial style conventions
* "testedwith" value was updated to core Mercurial special value and
comment boilerplate was inserted
* A "clone_sparse" function was renamed to "clonesparse" to appease
the style checker
* Paths to the sparse extension in tests reflect built-in location
* test-sparse-extensions.t was renamed to test-sparse-fsmonitor.t
and references to "simplecache" were removed. The test always skips
because it isn't trivial to run it given the way we currently run
fsmonitor tests
* A double empty line was removed from test-sparse-profiles.t
There are aspects of the added code that are obviously not ideal.
The goal is to make a minimal number of modifications as part of
the vendoring to make it easier to track changes from the original
implementation. Refactoring will occur in subsequent patches.

Set up a repo $ cat <<EOF >> $HGRCPATH > [ui] > interactive = true > [extensions] > record = > EOF $ hg init a $ cd a Record help $ hg record -h hg record [OPTION]... [FILE]... interactively select changes to commit If a list of files is omitted, all changes reported by 'hg status' will be candidates for recording. See 'hg help dates' for a list of formats valid for -d/--date. If using the text interface (see 'hg help config'), you will be prompted for whether to record changes to each modified file, and for files with multiple changes, for each change to use. For each query, the following responses are possible: y - record this change n - skip this change e - edit this change manually s - skip remaining changes to this file f - record remaining changes to this file d - done, skip remaining changes and files a - record all changes to all remaining files q - quit, recording no changes ? - display help This command is not available when committing a merge. (use 'hg help -e record' to show help for the record extension) options ([+] can be repeated): -A --addremove mark new/missing files as added/removed before committing --close-branch mark a branch head as closed --amend amend the parent of the working directory -s --secret use the secret phase for committing -e --edit invoke editor on commit messages -I --include PATTERN [+] include names matching the given patterns -X --exclude PATTERN [+] exclude names matching the given patterns -m --message TEXT use text as commit message -l --logfile FILE read commit message from file -d --date DATE record the specified date as commit date -u --user USER record the specified user as committer -S --subrepos recurse into subrepositories -w --ignore-all-space ignore white space when comparing lines -b --ignore-space-change ignore changes in the amount of white space -B --ignore-blank-lines ignore changes whose lines are all blank (some details hidden, use --verbose to show complete help) Select no files $ touch empty-rw $ hg add empty-rw $ hg record empty-rw<<EOF > n > EOF diff --git a/empty-rw b/empty-rw new file mode 100644 examine changes to 'empty-rw'?
