update: fix spurious unclean status bug shown by previous commit
The crux of the problem is:
- the dirstate is corrupted (the sizes/dates are assigned to the wrong files)
- because when worker.worker is used with a return value (batchget in
merge.py here), the return value when worker.worker effectively parallelizes
is permuted
- this is because worker.worker's partition of input and combination of output
values are not inverses of one another: it split [1,2,3,4,5,6] into
[[1,3,5],[2,4,6]], but combines that into [1,3,5,2,4,6].
Given that worker.worker doesn't call its function argument on contiguous
chunks on the input arguments, sticking with lists means we'd need to
know the relation between the inputs of worker.worker function argument
(for instance, requiring that every input element is mapped to exactly
one output element). It seems better to instead switch return values to
dicts, which can combined reliably with a straighforward restriction.

Mercurial supports a functional language for selecting a set of files. Like other file patterns, this pattern type is indicated by a prefix, 'set:'. The language supports a number of predicates which are joined by infix operators. Parenthesis can be used for grouping. Identifiers such as filenames or patterns must be quoted with single or double quotes if they contain characters outside of ``[.*{}[]?/\_a-zA-Z0-9\x80-\xff]`` or if they match one of the predefined predicates. This generally applies to file patterns other than globs and arguments for predicates. Pattern prefixes such as ``path:`` may be specified without quoting. Special characters can be used in quoted identifiers by escaping them, e.g., ``\n`` is interpreted as a newline. To prevent them from being interpreted, strings can be prefixed with ``r``, e.g. ``r'...'``. See also :hg:`help patterns`. Operators ========= There is a single prefix operator: ``not x`` Files not in x. Short form is ``! x``. These are the supported infix operators: ``x and y`` The intersection of files in x and y. Short form is ``x & y``. ``x or y`` The union of files in x and y. There are two alternative short forms: ``x | y`` and ``x + y``. ``x - y`` Files in x but not in y. Predicates ========== The following predicates are supported: .. predicatesmarker Examples ======== Some sample queries: - Show status of files that appear to be binary in the working directory:: hg status -A "set:binary()" - Forget files that are in .hgignore but are already tracked:: hg forget "set:hgignore() and not ignored()" - Find text files that contain a string:: hg files "set:grep(magic) and not binary()" - Find C files in a non-standard encoding:: hg files "set:**.c and not encoding('UTF-8')" - Revert copies of large binary files:: hg revert "set:copied() and binary() and size('>1M')" - Revert files that were added to the working directory:: hg revert "set:revs('wdir()', added())" - Remove files listed in foo.lst that contain the letter a or b:: hg remove "set: listfile:foo.lst and (**a* or **b*)"
