localrepo: introduce shared method to check if a repository is shared
Up until now we compared the "path" and "sharedpath" repository properties to
check if a repository is shared. This was relying an implementation detail of
shared repositories. In order to make it possible to change the way shared
repositories are implemented, we encapsulate this check into its own localrepo
method, called shared.
This new method returns None if the repository is shared, and something else
(for now a string describing the short of share) otherwise.
The reason why I did not call this method "isshared" and made it return a
boolean is that I plan to introduce a new type of shared repository soon.
# NOTES:
This is the first patch in a series whose purpose is to add support for
creating "full repository shares", which are repositories that share everything
with the repository source except their current revision, branch and bookmark.
This series is RFC because I am not very sure of some of the solutions I took.
Comments are welcome!
trydiff: use 'not in addedset' for symmetry with 'not in removedset'
With the previous change in place, we can safely use 'addedset'.
trydiff: simplify checking for additions
In the body of the loop in trydiff(), there are conditions like:
addedset or (f in modifiedset and to is None)
The second half of that expression is to account for the fact that
merge-in additions appear as additions. By instead fixing up the sets
of modified and added files to compensate for this fact, we can
simplify the body of the loop. It also fixes one case where the
addedset was checked without the additional check (the "have we
already reported a copy above?" case in the code, also see fixed test
case).
The similar condition with 'removedset' in it seems to have served no
purpose even before this change, so it could have been simplified even
before.
trydiff: extract 'date2' variable like existing 'date1'
Note that there is a comment saying "ctx2 date may be dynamic". The
comment was introduced in
dccb83241dd0 (patch: use contexts for diff,
2006-12-25), but it seems like it stopped being dynamic in that very
changeset -- before that changeset, the date seems to have been the
file's mtime, but after the changeset, it seems to be the changeset's
timestamp (current time for workingctx). Since no one seems to have
missed the "dynamicness", let's simplify and extract a date2 for
symmetry with date1.
trydiff: use sets, not lists, for containment checks
This only has a noticeable effect on diffs touching A LOT of
files. For example, it takes
hg diff -r FIREFOX_AURORA_30_BASE -r FIREFOX_AURORA_35_BASE
from 1m55.465s to 1m32.354s. That diff has over 50k files.
