commit: remove special handling of IOError (actually dead code)
In the past, IOError was used to mark a file as removed. The differentiation
between OSError and IOError in this place was introduced in
e553a425751d, to
avoid that “normal” OSErrors / IOErrors accidentally mark files as removed.
This weird internal API was removed in
650b5b6e75ed. It seems like that
changeset should have removed the differentiation, at least I don’t see any
reason for keeping it.
On Python 3, OSError and IOError are aliased. Therefore the removed code was
actually dead.
$ hg init
$ echo 123 > a
$ hg add a
$ hg commit -m "first" a
$ mkdir sub
$ echo 321 > sub/b
$ hg add sub/b
$ hg commit -m "second" sub/b
$ cat sub/b
321
$ hg co 0
0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
$ cat sub/b 2>/dev/null || echo "sub/b not present"
sub/b not present
$ test -d sub || echo "sub not present"
sub not present
