ui: add the possiblity to get a date config field Add the method configdate to read a date from configuration. It uses the util.rawparsedate refactored earlier to support all standard date formats.

util: refactor util.parsedate to raises ValueError Split most of util.parsedate in util.rawparsedate and make it raises ValueError instead of error.Abort. The util.parsedate function is now just a shell function converting ValueError to error.Abort for existing users. I need to parse a date from config in a later patch and use util.rawparsedate with ui.configwith which expect a convert that raises ValueError.

match: implement __repr__() and update users (API) fsmonitor and debugignore currently access matcher fields that I would consider implementation details, namely patternspat, includepat, and excludepat. Let' instead implement __repr__() and have the few users use that instead. Marked (API) because the fields can now be None.

fsmonitor: fix silly "*kwargs" bug in merge.update() override Everyone knows that it's supposed to be spelled with two asterisks. It started failing in fad5e299cfc7 (update: accept --merge to allow merging across topo branches (issue5125), 2017-02-13) because until then there was only one argument that was covered by the kwargs, so *kwargs or **kwargs both worked (or at least that's what I think with my limited understanding of Python).

revset: make `hg log -r 'wdir()^'` work (issue4905) This patch catches the WdirUnsupported exception to support wdir()^.

revlog: raise WdirUnsupported when wdirrev is passed revlog.parentrevs() is called while evaluating ^ operator in revsets. When wdir is passed, it raises IndexError. This patch raises WdirUnsupported if wdir is passed in the function. The error will be caugth in future patches.

error: add a new exception named WdirUnsupported This series intents to support wdir() predicate with different operators like ~, ^. Currently the storage class don't support wdir(). This exception is introduced so that it can be raised from places where wdir() is passed and is not supported and we can catch this where we want to support the predicate. Also throwing an error at low level and catching at some higher level is better than using if-else especially for perf.

match: replace icasefsmatch() function by flag to regular match() match() will soon gain more logic and we don't want to duplicate that in icasefsmatch(), so merge the two functions instead and use a flag to get case-insensitive behavior.

match: delete icasefsmatcher now that it's same as matcher

match: pass in normalize() function to matchers This will let us delete icasefsmatcher.

match: don't print explicitly listed files with wrong case (BC) On case-insensitive file systems, if file A exists and you try to remove it (or add, etc.) by specifying a different case, you will see something like this: $ hg rm a removing file A I honestly found this surprising because it seems to me like it was explicitly listed by the user. Still, there is a comment in the code describing it, so it is very clearly intentional. The code was added in baa11dde8c0e (match: add a subclass for dirstate normalizing of the matched patterns, 2015-04-12). I'm going to do a lot of refactoring to matchers and the feature mentioned above is going to get in my way. I'm therefore removing it for the time being and we can hopefully add it back when I'm done.

match: move body of _normalize() to a static function matcher._normalize() no longer depends on any of the matcher's state, and making it static will enable further refactoring. Note that the subdirmatcher subclass calls _normalize(), so we can't remove it completely.

match: pass 'warn' argument to _normalize() for consistency No other arguments are passed via the matcher's state, so we should treat 'warn' the consistently. More importantly, this will let us make it a static function, which will help with further refactoring.

match: replace match class by match function (API) The matcher class is getting hard to understand. It will be easier to follow if we can break it up into simpler matchers that we then compose. I'm hoping to have one matcher that accepts regular (non-include) patterns, one for exact file matches, one that always matches (and maybe one that never does) and then compose them by intersection and difference. This patch takes a simple but important step towards that goal by making match.match() a function (and renaming the matcher class itself from "match" to "matcher"). The new function will eventually be responsible for creating the simple matchers and composing them. icasefsmatcher similarly gets a factory function (called "icasefsmatch"). I also moved the other factory functions nearby.

checklink: degrade gracefully on posix when fs is readonly (issue5511) In the unlucky case, checklink tries to make a new file for the symlink test to target. If the filesystem is readonly (perhaps due to permissions in a repo owned by someone else) we just report the filesystem as not supporting symlinks, since the user probably can't write anyway.

revlog: remove some revlogNG terminology RevlogNG is not such a good name when it is no longer the newest revlog version. Since we'll soon have revlog version 2, let's remove some references to it.

revlog: tweak wording and logic for flags validation First, the logic around the if..elif..elif was subtly wrong and sub-optimal because all branches would be tested as long as the revlog was valid. This patch changes things so it behaves like a switch statement over the revlog version. While I was here, I also tweaked error strings to make them consistent and to read better.

tests: tests for revlog version and flags loading We didn't have explicit test coverage of these branches. Better late than never.

perf: allow to clear the obsstore in 'perfvolatilesets' Loading the obsstore can become a large part of the time necessary to compute the important volatile set. We add a flag purging all known obsstore related data. For example, computing the 'bumped' set currently requires reading the full obsstore, so timing greatly differ with or without that flag: Without: ! bumped ! wall 0.005047 comb 0.000000 user 0.000000 sys 0.000000 (best of 446) With: ! bumped ! wall 0.512367 comb 0.510000 user 0.480000 sys 0.030000 (best of 15)

obsolete: test an important corner case Receiving markers affecting changeset we'll receives later is legitimate and not so uncommon case. Working on cache highlighted that this was only testing in the evolve extension. We add a test for this case in core.

largefiles: replace always() method, not _always field We will soon have matchers that don't have an _always field, so largefiles needs to stop assuming that they do. _always is only used by always(), so we safely replace that method instead.

cext: mark constant variables

cext: move util.h to cext tree Since util.h isn't useful in plain C module, it should be placed in CPython extension directory.
