histedit-test: replace obscure python script by a plain file One of the tests uses a python script to edit the histedit commands on the fly. It was hard to read and likely to break. This is replaced by a plain command file. Doing so made me discover that the python script is incorrect. The "+6" regexp never matched because the revision number is wrong. This error is kept in the replacement for now. Fixing the histedit command triggers a traceback in histedit. A later changeset will fix the error and restore the intended test.

test: improve documentation of some histedit tests Each test section is clearly separated from the others and gains some helpful documentation.

test: use a lighter log style in histedit test The default log displays a log of information that is useless for histedit tests. Having a cleaner log help readability of those tests a lot. This does not change anything to the test semantic.

subrepo: add regression test for issue3870

subrepo: clone of git sub-repository creates incorrect git branch (issue3870) Mercurial handles git subrepos by incorrect way. If the mercurial repo has a git sub-repo and somebody started a new branch in the subrepo and push it into git, the next one who will clone the whole repo will get incorrect branch name in the git subrepo.

dispatch: print 'abort:' when a pre-command hook fails (BC) This also changes the exit code from whatever the hook returned to 255. This brings it in line with all the other hooks that abort.

largefiles: don't hash all largefiles when initializing a lfdirstate The largefiles will be hashed on demand if necessary ... and sometimes it isn't necessary.

largefiles: use filechunkiter for iterating largefile when serving getlfile The default file iterator is line based and will give odd chunk sizes - often very short and relatively expensive.

largefiles: stat all largefiles in one batch before downloading This avoids a lot of expensive roundtrips to remote repositories ... but might be slightly slower for local operations. This will also change some aborts on missing files to warnings. That will in some situations make it possible to continue working on a repository with missing largefiles.

largefiles: 'put' should store 'source' file in under 'hash', also in localstore
