contrib: add a script for adding vendored type stubs to typeshed I really hate this, but pytype doesn't support PEP 561 and doesn't seem to have the equivalent of `MYPYPATH` to point to custom stubs. Ignoring the vendored stubs isn't necessarily harmful, but pytype has been choking on the vendored attr package after pytype 2022.03.29 with errors like this: File "/mnt/c/Users/Matt/hg/mercurial/linelog.py", line 52, in __iter__: Built-in function iter was called with the wrong arguments [wrong-arg-types] Expected: (collection: bytearray) Actually passed: (collection: mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr) File "/mnt/c/Users/Matt/hg/mercurial/dirstateutils/v2.py", line 143, in pack: Built-in function len was called with the wrong arguments [wrong-arg-types] Expected: (obj: Sized) Actually passed: (obj: mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr) Attributes of protocol Sized are not implemented on mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr: __len__ File "/mnt/c/Users/Matt/hg/mercurial/dirstateutils/v2.py", line 144, in pack: No attribute 'rfind' on mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr [attribute-error] File "/mnt/c/Users/Matt/hg/mercurial/dirstateutils/v2.py", line 146, in pack: Built-in function len was called with the wrong arguments [wrong-arg-types] Expected: (obj: Sized) Actually passed: (obj: mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr) Attributes of protocol Sized are not implemented on mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr: __len__ File "/mnt/c/Users/Matt/hg/mercurial/dirstateutils/v2.py", line 152, in pack: No attribute 'v2_data' on mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr [attribute-error] File "/mnt/c/Users/Matt/hg/mercurial/util.py", line 2817, in go: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'count: mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr' and 'float: float' [unsupported-operands] No attribute '__truediv__' on 'count: mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr' or '__rtruediv__' on 'float: float' Called from (traceback): line 2981, in __bytes__ This is essentially the same hack we've been using in TortoiseHg to add the vendored PyQt5 stubs. What I don't understand is pytype *still* generates *.pyi files under .pytype/pyi/mercurial/thirdparty/attr, even when the package is explicitly ignored in the pytype command line args. But it avoids the errors, which means we aren't stuck on pytype==2022.03.29. https://github.com/google/pytype/issues/151

contrib: update check-pytype.sh to list stubs that caused pytype to crash The same logic is in the TortoiseHg tests for running pytype, and it's useful to know if a new version of pytype is better or worse.

typing: add py.typed to mercurial.cext for PEP 561 support Unfortunately, pytype doesn't support this yet. But it was included with the attr package, so we might as well do it here for consistency. Unlike the attr package, these type hints are only partial, so they are marked as such[1] (but who knows if it matters, given these are C extensions, so no local source code to scan).
