obsolete: order of magnitude speedup in _computebumpedset Reminder: a changeset is said "bumped" if it tries to obsolete a immutable changeset. The previous algorithm for computing bumped changeset was: 1) Get all public changesets 2) Find all they successors 3) Search for stuff that are eligible for being "bumped" (mutable and non obsolete) The entry size of this algorithm is `O(len(public))` which is mostly the same as `O(len(repo))`. Even this this approach mean fewer obsolescence marker are traveled, this is not very scalable. The new algorithm is: 1) For each potential bumped changesets (non obsolete mutable) 2) iterate over precursors 3) if a precursors is public. changeset is bumped We travel more obsolescence marker, but the entry size is much smaller since the amount of potential bumped should remains mostly stable with time `O(1)`. On some confidential gigantic repo this move bumped computation from 15.19s to 0.46s (×33 speedup…). On "smaller" repo (mercurial, cubicweb's review) no significant gain were seen. The additional traversal of obsolescence marker is probably probably counter balance the advantage of it. Other optimisation could be done in the future (eg: sharing precursors cache for divergence detection)

Corrupt an hg repo with a pull started during an aborted commit
Create two repos, so that one of them can pull from the other one.

  $ hg init source
  $ cd source
  $ touch foo
  $ hg add foo
  $ hg ci -m 'add foo'
  $ hg clone . ../corrupted
  updating to branch default
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ echo >> foo
  $ hg ci -m 'change foo'

Add a hook to wait 5 seconds and then abort the commit

  $ cd ../corrupted
  $ echo "[hooks]" >> .hg/hgrc
  $ echo "pretxncommit = sh -c 'sleep 5; exit 1'" >> .hg/hgrc

start a commit...

  $ touch bar
  $ hg add bar
  $ hg ci -m 'add bar' &

... and start a pull while the commit is still running

  $ sleep 1
  $ hg pull ../source 2>/dev/null
  pulling from ../source
  transaction abort!
  rollback completed
