Mercurial: Changelog

archival: our filenames are bytes, not strs Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2656

archival: tar file modes need to be sysstrs Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2655

archival: fsdecode paths before passing to tar or zip objects Both of these traffic in unicodes for filenames on Python 3, and inspection of the tarfile module shows that it uses the filesystem encoding, so fsdecode is the right choice. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2654

py3: add b'' prefixes in tests/test-minirst.py # skip-blame because just b'' prefixes Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2653

py3: make sure __repr__ returns a str # skip-blame because just r'' prefix Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2652

py3: make sure regular expressions are bytes # skip-blame because just b'' prefix Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2651

py3: use bytes instead of str to make sure we use bytes internally Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2650

py3: use util.forcebytestr instead of str to convert error messages Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2649

lock: block signal interrupt while making a lock file On Windows where symlink isn't supported, util.makelock() could leave an empty file if interrupted immediately after os.open(). This empty lock never dies as it has no process id recorded. ld = os.open(pathname, os.O_CREAT | os.O_WRONLY | os.O_EXCL) # an interrupt may occur here os.write(ld, info) os.close(ld) This was a long-standing bug of TortoiseHg which runs a command-server and kills it by CTRL_C_EVENT, reported by random Windows users. https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/issues/4873/#comment-43591129 At first, I tried to fix makelock() to clean up a stale lock file, which turned out to be hard because any instructions may be interrupted by a signal. ld = None try: # CALL_FUNCTION # os.open(...) # an interrupt may occur here # STORE_FAST # ld = ... ld = os.open(pathname, os.O_CREAT | os.O_WRONLY | os.O_EXCL) os.write(ld, info) ... return True except: if ld: ... os.unlink(pathname) return False So I decided to block signals by temporarily replacing the signal handlers so makelcok() and held = 1 will never be interrupted. Many thanks to Fernando Najera for investigating the issue.
