tests: use sha256line.py instead of /dev/random in test-censor.t (issue6858) Sometimes the systems that run our test suite don't have enough entropy and they cannot produce target file of the expected size using /dev/random, which results in test failures. Switching to /dev/urandom would give us way more available data at the cost of it being less "random", but we don't really need to use entropy for this task at all, since we only care if the file size after compression is big enough to not be stored inline in the revlog. So let's use something that we already have used to generate this kind of data in other tests.

== New Features ==

 * Windows will process hgrc files in %PROGRAMDATA%\Mercurial\hgrc.d.


== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==

 * The `indent()` template function was documented to not indent empty lines,
   but it still indented the first line even if it was empty. It no longer does
   that.

== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==


== Internal API Changes ==

 * Matcher instances no longer have a `explicitdir` property. Consider
   rewriting your code to use `repo.wvfs.isdir()` and/or
   `ctx.hasdir()` instead. Also, the `traversedir` property is now
   also called when only `explicitdir` used to be called. That may
   mean that you can simply remove the use of `explicitdir` if you
   were already using `traversedir`.

 * The `revlog.nodemap` object have been merged into the `revlog.index` object.
   * `n in revlog.nodemap` becomes `revlog.index.has_node(n)`,
   * `revlog.nodemap[n]` becomes `revlog.index.rev(n)`,
   * `revlog.nodemap.get(n)` becomes `revlog.index.get_rev(n)`.

 * `copies.duplicatecopies()` was renamed to
   `copies.graftcopies()`. Its arguments changed from revision numbers
   to context objects. It also lost its `repo` and `skip` arguments
   (they should no longer be needed).
