sslutil: improve messaging around unsupported protocols (
issue5303)
There are various causes for the inability to negotiate common SSL/TLS
protocol between client and server. Previously, we had a single, not
very actionable warning message for all of them.
As people encountered TLS 1.0 servers in real life, it was quickly
obvious that the existing messaging was inadequate to help users
rectify the situation.
This patch makes the warning messages much more verbose in hopes of
making them more actionable while simultaneously encouraging users
and servers to adopt better security practices.
This messaging flirts with the anti-pattern of "never blame the
user" by signaling out poorly-configured servers. But if we're going to
disallow TLS 1.0 by default, I think we need to say *something* or
people are just going to blame Mercurial for not being able to connect.
The messaging tries to exonerate Mercurial from being the at fault
party by pointing out the server is the entity that doesn't support
proper security (when appropriate, of course).
sslutil: capture string string representation of protocol
This will be used in a subsequent patch to improve messaging.
sslutil: allow TLS 1.0 when --insecure is used
--insecure is our psuedo-supported footgun for disabling connection
security.
The flag already disables CA verification. I think allowing the use of
TLS 1.0 when specified is appropriate.
hg: copy [hostsecurity] options to remote ui instances (
issue5305)
TIL that ui instances for remote/peer repos don't automagically inherit
config options from .hg/hgrc files.
This patch makes remote ui instances inherit options from the
[hostsecurity] section. We were already inheriting options
from [hostfingerprints] and [auth]. So adding [hostsecurity] to the
list seems appropriate.
rbc: fix superfluous rebuilding from scratch - don't abuse self._rbcnamescount
The code used self._rbcnamescount as if it was the length of self._names ...
but actually it is just the number of good entries on disk. This caused the
cache to be populated inefficiently. In some cases very inefficiently.
Instead of checking the length before lookup, just try a lookup in self._names
- that is also in most cases faster.
Comments and debug messages are tweaked to help understanding the issue
and the fix.
util: better handle '-' in version string (
issue5302)
versiontuple() was previously only splitting on '+' and strings
like "3.9-rc" were causing it to misreport the version as
(3, None). By splitting on either '+' or '-' we can handle
our version strings with "-rc" in them.
