templater: protect word() from crashing on out of range negative value The function isn't documented to work with negative values at all, but it does, which can be useful. However, the range check didn't account for this.

commands: add a new debug command to print merge state We're going to be extending the merge state very soon, and this will give us a way to test all that.

merge.mergestate: factor out code to validate v1/v2 records We're going to need this in another place in upcoming patches.

localrepo: prevent wlock from being inherited when a transaction is running Review feedback from Pierre-Yves David. A separate line of work is working to ensure that dirstate writes are written to a separate 'pending' file while a transaction is active. Lock inheritance currently conflicts with that, so dodge the issue by simply preventing inheritance while a transaction is running. Custom merge drivers aren't going to run inside a transaction, so this doesn't affect that.

lock: add a way to prevent locks from being inherited We want to prevent locks from being inherited sometimes (e.g. when there's a currently running transaction, which will break a lot of assumptions we're making in here.)

test-fncache: use args/kwargs for lock wrapper This is annoying to keep up to date, and also just plain unnecessary.

rebase: enable histedit for useful help with it

rebase: suggest help -e histedit Users unfamiliar with an extension should be reading the documentation for the feature, not the command.

rebase: factor out histedit help command

util: use tuple accessor to get accurate st_mtime value (issue4836) Because st.st_mtime is computed as 'sec + 1e-9 * nsec' and double is too narrow to represent nanoseconds, int(st.st_mtime) can be 'sec + 1'. Therefore, that value could be different from the one got by osutils.listdir(). This patch fixes the problem by accessing to raw st_mtime by tuple index. It catches TypeError to fall back to st.st_mtime because our osutil.stat does not support tuple index. In dirstate.normal(), 'st' is always a Python stat, but in dirstate.status(), it can be either a Python stat or an osutil.stat. Thanks to vgatien-baron@janestreet.com for finding the root cause of this subtle problem.

util: extract stub function to get mtime with second accuracy This function is trivial but will need a long comment why it can't use st.st_mtime. See the next patch for details.

scmutil: add a way for a repo's wlock to be inherited by a subprocess This is part of a series that will allow locks to be inherited by subprocesses in limited circumstances. In the future, we'll call this for custom merge drivers.

scmutil: add a way for a subprocess to be run with an inheritable lock This is part of a series that will allow locks to be inherited by subprocesses in limited circumstances. In an upcoming patch, we'll add an API for the wlock to be inherited.

localrepo: add a way to get the current wlock if it's held This will be useful to pass around a reference to the lock to some functions we're going to add to scmutil. We don't want those functions to live in localrepo to avoid bloat.

localrepo: add a way to get the current lock if it's held We'll use this in upcoming patches to return a reference to the wlock if it's held.
