narrow: intersect provided matcher with narrowmatcher in `hg diff`
This provides significant speedups when running diff, and no change in behavior
that I'm aware of (or that the tests found). I tested with a repo that I started
using narrow in after it was created and attempted to run `hg diff -c .` and
similar commands in it on a commit that had files not in the narrowspec.
Timing numbers below, using a similar setup as my previous commits.
before=9db85644, m-u is mozilla-unified at eb39298e432d (flatmanifest) and
0553b7f29eaf (treemanifest). l-d-r is a repo simulating a situation I've
encountered where there's one directory with 30k+ subdirectories. N means
narrow, T means treemanifest. The narrowspec is pretty small when in use, and
importantly the narrowspec is applied *after* doing the initial checkout
(without narrowing), so all of these files exist in the filesystem, which is not
normally the case if someone has been using narrow for the entire life of the
clone.
Anything less than a 5% difference in performance is most likely noise.

Synopsis ======== The Mercurial system uses a file called ``.hgignore`` in the root directory of a repository to control its behavior when it searches for files that it is not currently tracking. Description =========== The working directory of a Mercurial repository will often contain files that should not be tracked by Mercurial. These include backup files created by editors and build products created by compilers. These files can be ignored by listing them in a ``.hgignore`` file in the root of the working directory. The ``.hgignore`` file must be created manually. It is typically put under version control, so that the settings will propagate to other repositories with push and pull. An untracked file is ignored if its path relative to the repository root directory, or any prefix path of that path, is matched against any pattern in ``.hgignore``. For example, say we have an untracked file, ``file.c``, at ``a/b/file.c`` inside our repository. Mercurial will ignore ``file.c`` if any pattern in ``.hgignore`` matches ``a/b/file.c``, ``a/b`` or ``a``. In addition, a Mercurial configuration file can reference a set of per-user or global ignore files. See the ``ignore`` configuration key on the ``[ui]`` section of :hg:`help config` for details of how to configure these files. To control Mercurial's handling of files that it manages, many commands support the ``-I`` and ``-X`` options; see :hg:`help <command>` and :hg:`help patterns` for details. Files that are already tracked are not affected by .hgignore, even if they appear in .hgignore. An untracked file X can be explicitly added with :hg:`add X`, even if X would be excluded by a pattern in .hgignore. Syntax ====== An ignore file is a plain text file consisting of a list of patterns, with one pattern per line. Empty lines are skipped. The ``#`` character is treated as a comment character, and the ``\`` character is treated as an escape character. Mercurial supports several pattern syntaxes. The default syntax used is Python/Perl-style regular expressions. To change the syntax used, use a line of the following form:: syntax: NAME where ``NAME`` is one of the following: ``regexp`` Regular expression, Python/Perl syntax. ``glob`` Shell-style glob. The chosen syntax stays in effect when parsing all patterns that follow, until another syntax is selected. Neither glob nor regexp patterns are rooted. A glob-syntax pattern of the form ``*.c`` will match a file ending in ``.c`` in any directory, and a regexp pattern of the form ``\.c$`` will do the same. To root a regexp pattern, start it with ``^``. Subdirectories can have their own .hgignore settings by adding ``subinclude:path/to/subdir/.hgignore`` to the root ``.hgignore``. See :hg:`help patterns` for details on ``subinclude:`` and ``include:``. .. note:: Patterns specified in other than ``.hgignore`` are always rooted. Please see :hg:`help patterns` for details. Example ======= Here is an example ignore file. :: # use glob syntax. syntax: glob *.elc *.pyc *~ # switch to regexp syntax. syntax: regexp ^\.pc/
