localrepo: avoid unnecessary sorting headrevs output already sorted, no need to sort it again.

localrepo: cache self.changelog in local variable Repeated self.changelog lookups can incur overhead. Let's cache it in the separate variable.

destutil: remove dead code about non-linear updates IIUC, the non-linear updates no longer happen by default since 6b1fc09c699a (update: change default destination to tipmost descendant (issue4673) (BC), 2016-02-02), and it was only if they happened by default that we used to error out, so there is no longer a need to handle this case.

update: fix typo/stale comment to match code The comment about "obsolete.background" seems to have been about obsolete.foreground ever since it was introduced in a59e575c6ff8 (update: allow dirty update to foreground (successors), 2013-04-16), so let's change it.

merge: remove unused handling of default destination in merge.update() As far as I can tell, all the callers of merge.update() have been migrated over to use destutil to find the default destination when the revision was not specified. So it's time to delete the code for handling a node value of None. Let's add an assertion that node is not None, so any extensions relying on it will not silently misbehave.

update: localize logic around which ancestor to use The merge code works by applying the changes between an ancestor and the working copy onto the destination. To achieve an update, it sets the ancestor to be the parent of the working copy. To achieve a clean update (update -C), it sets the ancestor to be the working copy itself (so there are no changes to carry over). The logic for this was spread out a bit. Let's move it all to one place so it's easier to follow the reason for it. Also add some documentation.

tests: add test for updating to null revision While working on merge.py, I realized that we don't (as far as I could tell) have any tests for updating to the null revision with a dirty working copy. This adds some simple tests for that.

import: mention "stdin" (abbreviated) and add example I actually didn't even think it was possible because I searched the help text for "stdin", and didn't even think of searching for "standard input". Let's mention the abbreviated form too to help others like me. (When importing from stdin, we actually print a message saying "applying patch from stdin".) This patch also adds an example showing how to import from stdin.

merge: print status message before launching external merge tool It seems somewhat common that people run into a merge conflict and don't notice the launched merge tool, and instead they think hg just hung. Let's print a message for each file that we launch a GUI merge tool for.

pager: exit cleanly on SIGPIPE (BC) Changeset aaa751585325 removes SIGPIPE handling completely. This is wrong, as it means that Mercurial does not exit when the pager does. Instead, raise SignalInterrupt when SIGPIPE happens with a pager attached, to trigger the normal exit path. This will cause "killed!" to be printed to stderr (hence the BC warning), but in the normal pager use case (where the pager gets both stderr and stdout), this message is lost as we only get SIGPIPE when the pager quits.

runtests: catch EPROTONOSUPPORT in checkportisavailable This is a follow-up of "runtests: check ports on IPv6 address". On some platforms, "socket.AF_INET6" exists while that does not necessarily mean the platform support IPv6 - when initializing a socket using "socket.socket", it could fail with EPROTONOSUPPORT. So treat that as "Port unavailable".

zstd: vendor python-zstandard 0.7.0 Commit 3054ae3a66112970a091d3939fee32c2d0c1a23e from https://github.com/indygreg/python-zstandard is imported without modifications (other than removing unwanted files). The vendored zstd library within has been upgraded from 1.1.2 to 1.1.3. This version introduced new APIs for threads, thread pools, multi-threaded compression, and a new dictionary builder (COVER). These features are not yet used by python-zstandard (or Mercurial for that matter). However, that will likely change in the next python-zstandard release (and I think there are opportunities for Mercurial to take advantage of the multi-threaded APIs). Relevant to Mercurial, the CFFI bindings are now fully implemented. This means zstd should "just work" with PyPy (although I haven't tried). The python-zstandard test suite also runs all tests against both the C extension and CFFI bindings to ensure feature parity. There is also a "decompress_content_dict_chain()" API. This was derived from discussions with Yann Collet on list about alternate ways of encoding delta chains. The change most relevant to Mercurial is a performance enhancement in the simple decompression API to reuse a data structure across operations. This makes decompression of multiple inputs significantly faster. (This scenario occurs when reading revlog delta chains, for example.) Using python-zstandard's bench.py to measure the performance difference...

py3: fix the way we produce bytes list in store.py bytes(range(127)) does not produce a list whereas we need a list. This patch fixes that.
