bisect: avoid adding irrelevant revisions to bisect state When adding new revisions to the bisect state, it only makes sense to add information about revisions that are under consideration (i.e., those that are topologically between the known good and bad revisions). However, if the user passes in a revset (e.g., '!merge()' to exclude merge commits), hg will resolve the revset first and add all matching revisions to the bisect state (which in this case would likely be the majority of revisions in the repo). To avoid this, revisions should only be added to the bisect state if they are between the good and bad revisions (and therefore relevant to the bisection). -- Here are the results of some performance tests using the `mozilla-central` repo (since it is one of the largest freely-available hg repositories in the wild). These tests compare the performance of a locally-built `hg` before and after application of this series. Note that `--noupdate` is passed to avoid including update time (which should not vary across cases). Setup (run between each test): $ hg bisect --reset $ hg bisect --noupdate --bad 56c3ad4bde5c70714b784ccf15d099e0df0f5bde $ hg bisect --noupdate --good 57426696adaf08298af3027fa77486fee0633b13 Test using a revset that returns a very large number of revisions: $ time hg bisect --noupdate --skip '!merge()' > /dev/null Before: real 0m9.398s user 0m9.233s sys 0m0.120s After: real 0m1.513s user 0m1.425s sys 0m0.052s Test using a revset that is expensive to compute: $ time hg bisect --noupdate --skip 'desc("Bug")' > /dev/null Before: real 0m49.853s user 0m49.580s sys 0m0.243s After: real 0m4.120s user 0m4.036s sys 0m0.048s

bisect: limit ancestors to revs topologically between good and bad revs Previously, when constructing its dict of revisions to their ancestors, bisect would populate the dict with ALL of the descendents of the good set, which is a bit silly because it is impossible for a revision that is a descendent of the minimum known bad revision to be the first bad rev. Instead it makes more sense to limit the revisions to just those topologically between the good and bad.

bisect: bypass changectx when translating revs to nodes When resolving the revset given by the user into node hashes, use the changelog to perform the translation rather than the repo object. This avoids the overhead of constructing a changectx which is immediately discarded.

rhg: make [rhg status -v] work when it needs no extra output Add support for verbose [status] when no extra output is actually needed. This makes it so that [rhg status] is actually useful when [tweakdefaults] is true. (since tweakdefaults implies verbose status)

perf: introduce a benchmark for delta-find That part is responsible of serious slowdown in some `hg pull/unbundle` case. So lets add a way to benchmark it.

automation: set PATH when building on Windows Sometime in the 6.2 release cycle the Windows building automation broke. Building the wheel and even PyOxidizer based installers now fails with: ``` Exception: PowerShell execution failed: error: subprocess-exited-with-error Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully. exit code: 1 [1 lines of output] Unable to find a working hg binary to extract the version from the repository tags [end of output] note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ``` I have a hunch this is a regression from upgrading pip in 1c00777702da, but I haven't verified this. It may not be, as PyOxidizer has its own bundled Python/pip. So maybe it is something in `setup.py`.
