ancestor: use absolute_import A few months ago, import-checker.py was taught to enforce a more well-defined import style for files with absolute_import. However, we stopped short of actually converting source files to use absolute_import because of problems with certain files. Investigation revealed the following problems with switching to absolute_import universally: 1) import cycles result in import failure on Python 2.6 2) undetermined way to import C/pure modules While these problems need to be solved, they can be put off. This patch starts a series of converting files to absolute_import that won't exhibit any of the aforementioned problems.

discovery: always use batching now that all peers support batching Some peers will transparently downgrade batched requests to non-batched ones, but that simplifies code for everyone using batching.

wireproto: make wirepeer look-before-you-leap on batching This means that users of request batching don't need to worry themselves with capability checking. Instead, they can just use batching, and if the remote server doesn't support batching for some reason the wirepeer code will transparently un-batch the requests. This will allow for some slight simplification in a handful of places. Prior to this change, largefiles would have been silently broken against a server which did not support batching.

batching: migrate basic noop batching into peer.peer "Real" batching only makes sense for wirepeers, but it greatly simplifies the clients of peer instances if they can be ignorant to actual batching capabilities of that peer. By moving the not-really-batched batching code into peer.peer, all peer instances now work with the batching API, thus simplifying users. This leaves a couple of name forwards in wirepeer.py. Originally I had planned to clean those up, but it kind of unclarifies other bits of code that want to use batching, so I think it makes sense for the names to stay exposed by wireproto. Specifically, almost nothing is currently aware of peer (see largefiles.proto for an example), so making them be aware of the peer module *and* the wireproto module seems like some abstraction leakage. I *think* the right long-term fix would actually be to make wireproto an implementation detail that clients wouldn't need to know about, but I don't really know what that would entail at the moment. As far as I'm aware, no clients of batching in third-party extensions will need updating, which is nice icing.

parsers: fix memory leak in compute_phases_map_sets PySet_Add increments the reference of the added object to the set, see: https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.6/Objects/setobject.c#l379 Before this patch we were forgetting to decrement the reference count after adding objects to the phaseset. This patch fixes the issue and makes the reference count right so that these objects can be properly garbage collected.

histedit: do not stay on a cleaned nodes on abort There is case where nodes are neither in tmpnodes nor leaf but still get removed. For example, if you used the "edit" action, made a commit and run --abort. The commit you made is not tracked by histedit, yet it will likely be cleaned up with its parent. The commit may not tracked because no replacements computations are done in the --abort case.

histedit: also update away from tmpnodes The working copy may be on a tmpnodes, we need to update away before it is stripped from the repository.

histedit: use revset to check if we need to update during abort The for loop is already quite more complicated than necessary and we are about to add some logic. Instead, we use a simple revset. Revset laziness should provide us with similar performance.
