cmdutil: convert _revertprefetch() to a generic stored file hook (API) This will be used by LFS to fetch required files in a group for multiple commands, prior to being accessed. That avoids the one-at-a-time fetch when the filelog wrapper goes to access it, and it is missing locally (which costs two round trips to the server.) The core command list that needs this is probably at least: - annotate - archive (which is also used by extdiff) - cat - diff - export - grep - verify (sadly) - anything that has the '{data}' template There are no core users of the revert prefetch hook, and never have been since it was introduced in 45e02cfad4bd for remotefilelog. Thanks to Yuya for figuring out a way to reliably trigger the deprecated warning. Unfortunately, it wanted to blame the caller of revert. Passing along an adjusted stack level seemed the least bad choice (although it still blames a core function). One thing to note is that the store lock isn't being held when this is called. I'm not at all familiar with remotefilelog or its locking requirements, so this may not be a big deal. Currently, LFS doesn't hold a lock when downloading files. Even though largefiles doesn't either, I'm starting to think it should, and maybe the .hg/store/lock isn't good enough to cover the globally shared cache. .. api:: The cmdutil._revertprefetch() hook point for prefetching stored files has been replaced by the command agnostic cmdutil._prefetchfiles(). The new function takes a list of files, instead of a list of lists of files.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
