manifest: for diff(), only iterate over files, not flags
From manifest.diff(), we return a dict from filename to pairs of pairs
of file nodeids and flags (values of the form ((n1,n2),(fl1,fl2))). To
create this dict, we currently generate one dict for files (with
(n1,n2) values) and one for flags (with (fl1,fl2) values) and then
join these dicts. Missing files are represented by None and missing
flags by '', but due to the dict joining, the inner pairs themselves
can also be None. The only caller, merge.manifestmerge(), then unpacks
these values while checking for None values.
By inlining the calls to dicthelpers and simplifying it to only
iterate over files (ignoring flags-only differences), we can simplify
life for our caller.

What are phases? ================ Phases are a system for tracking which changesets have been or should be shared. This helps prevent common mistakes when modifying history (for instance, with the mq or rebase extensions). Each changeset in a repository is in one of the following phases: - public : changeset is visible on a public server - draft : changeset is not yet published - secret : changeset should not be pushed, pulled, or cloned These phases are ordered (public < draft < secret) and no changeset can be in a lower phase than its ancestors. For instance, if a changeset is public, all its ancestors are also public. Lastly, changeset phases should only be changed towards the public phase. How are phases managed? ======================= For the most part, phases should work transparently. By default, a changeset is created in the draft phase and is moved into the public phase when it is pushed to another repository. Once changesets become public, extensions like mq and rebase will refuse to operate on them to prevent creating duplicate changesets. Phases can also be manually manipulated with the :hg:`phase` command if needed. See :hg:`help -v phase` for examples. Phases and servers ================== Normally, all servers are ``publishing`` by default. This means:: - all draft changesets that are pulled or cloned appear in phase public on the client - all draft changesets that are pushed appear as public on both client and server - secret changesets are neither pushed, pulled, or cloned .. note:: Pulling a draft changeset from a publishing server does not mark it as public on the server side due to the read-only nature of pull. Sometimes it may be desirable to push and pull changesets in the draft phase to share unfinished work. This can be done by setting a repository to disable publishing in its configuration file:: [phases] publish = False See :hg:`help config` for more information on configuration files. .. note:: Servers running older versions of Mercurial are treated as publishing. .. note:: Changesets in secret phase are not exchanged with the server. This applies to their content: file names, file contents, and changeset metadata. For technical reasons, the identifier (e.g. d825e4025e39) of the secret changeset may be communicated to the server. Examples ======== - list changesets in draft or secret phase:: hg log -r "not public()" - change all secret changesets to draft:: hg phase --draft "secret()" - forcibly move the current changeset and descendants from public to draft:: hg phase --force --draft . - show a list of changeset revision and phase:: hg log --template "{rev} {phase}\n" - resynchronize draft changesets relative to a remote repository:: hg phase -fd "outgoing(URL)" See :hg:`help phase` for more information on manually manipulating phases.
