changelog: rely on transaction for finalization
Instead of calling 'cl.finalize()' by hand (possibly at a bogus time) we
register it in the transaction during 'delayupdate' and rely on 'tr.close()' to
call it at the right time.
transaction: allow registering a finalization callback
The new 'addfinalize' method allows people to register a callback to
be triggered when the transaction is closed. This aims to get rid of
explicit calls to 'changelog.finalize'. This also obsoletes the
'onclose' function but removing it is not in the scope of this series.
changelog: handle writepending in the transaction
The 'delayupdate' method now takes a transaction object and registers its
'_writepending' method for execution in 'transaction.writepending()'. The hook can then
use 'transaction.writepending()' directly.
At some point this will allow the addition of other file creation
during writepending.
transaction: add 'writepending' logic
The contents of the transaction must be flushed to disk before running
a hook. But it must be flushed to a special file so that the normal
reader does not use it. This logic is currently in the changelog only.
We add some facility to register such operations in the transaction
itself.
changelog: rework the delayupdate mechanism
The current way we use the 'delayupdate' mechanism is wrong. We call
'delayupdate' right after the transaction retrieval, then we call 'finalize'
right before calling 'tr.close()'. The 'finalize' call will -always- result in a
flush to disk, making the data available to all readers. But the 'tr.close()' may
be a no-op if the transaction is nested. This would result in data:
1) exposed to reader too early,
2) rolled back by other part of the transaction after such exposure
So we need to end up in a situation where we call 'finalize' a single time when
the transaction actually closes. For this purpose we need to be able to call
'delayupdate' and '_writepending' multiple times and 'finalize' once. This was
not possible with the previous state of the code.
This changeset refactors the code to makes this possible. We buffer data in memory
as much as possible and fall-back to writing to a ".a" file after the first call
to '_writepending'.
bookmarks: fix formatting of exchange message (
issue4439)
The message formatting was crashing when doing explicit pulling `hg pull -B X`.
This changeset fix it and improved the test coverage.
test-status-rev: document one more broken test
The status for missing_content2_content2-untracked doesn't get
reported at all. Since the file does exist in the working copy, it
should reported as unknown. Document that in the test.
